So it turns out that when we put our minds to it, we can actually blaze through a whole bunch of games in Football Manager when the pressure is on and things need to get turned around quickly - namely us closing out the final six weeks of our time in Germany and the Bundesliga.

We won't spoil it entirely, but there are a few positives to take away from the whole experience - though how does it all work out?

Just when it looks like Frankfurt were cruising, the wheels started to come off thanks to heavy defeats to Dortmund and Chelsea. But wouldn't you know it, if a few results elsewhere fell into place, there could still be the possibility of securing European football.

As for Augsburg, it looks like Shane's got a little something clicking as the goals start to come good, fixtures start to look more appealing and there's something of a fire under a side that was destined for the drop for at least half the domestic season.

To be fair, how we've actually gotten this far and have been able to make an episode about the FINAL month in the league is still hard to comprehend, but here we are.

Let's bid farewell to Germany, bye-bye Bundesliga, and try to send Frankfurt and Augsburg home in style.
