Out of interest Adam, if you're looking for a fifth bowler, would you be interested in bidding for Bridges M? And if so, how much?
I was going to hold off until the end of the season before selling him, but, looking at TM prices, I could probably do with accruing the interest ASAP. Plus it would only be fitting for him to have a spell at Asterix CI, seeing as though it was you who found him for me!

Well, I'm probably going to buy a spinner (out of vanity - don't want to mess with my exquisite/masterful seam rating) but I've only got 2m and he should fetch quite a bit more than that.

Are you going to have a bid then Adam? I put him up in your price-range in case you were interested. But only bid ifyou want him, It's not like I'm in a rush for the money, I'm not after a favour

Nah, not really interested in that price range. My wages are something ridiculous so I need to keep a fair amount (1m+) for interest or I'll go under. Probably just going to buy someone relatively crap for my fifth bowler (proficient or so).

No problem, like I say, I'm not in any rush, as I'll have to save four to five mill before having enough for anyone worthwhile in any case. But you reckon I'll get a bid at £1.95M? How much do you reckon he'll fetch. There are quite a few similar players with starting prices of around three mmill, but the only ones with bids are about the £2.25/£2.5M mark.

If he goes for less than £2.5M, I'll buy him myself!

As I've mentioned before, I'm looking to skill trade two players this season. However, if a bargain like that came up, I'd go for it and flog my current 5th bowler (Prof/Resp) for £1M or so. Hopefully a bit more.

This guy would do nicely as a replacement!

Toby Hay (43397)
LH Batsman, LM Bowler, superb batting form, superb bowling form, invigorated
A steady player with proficient leadership skills and feeble experience.
Plays For: Selfish Sloggers
Nationality: England
Age: 24 Years Old
Battrick Rating: 124,866
Wages: £108,627 p/w
Stamina: superb Wicket Keeping: mediocre
Batting: woeful Concentration: strong
Bowling: elite Consistency: quality
Fielding: superb

Career average of 10 with the ball, and knows which end of the bat's which, with a competitive fifty to his name. Wages aren't all that ridiculous, yet he's listed for just £4.5M? Either his owner's desperate to sell, or I'm missing something?

Well, that wage is going to hurt -- my entire team only comes up to £120k, and I don't break even without interest.

There's no way he's going to sell for that low a price -- the owner's probably hoping people will spot him and bookmark him for future bidding.

Wage isn't that bad, I manage to survive even though I'm making a 220k loss with full interest. Granted a div VI team isn't going to manage the same gate receipts, but they'll survive fine. Probably just trying to balance him team a bit.

Good to see the wage isn't too exorbitant, that's similar to what I hope Downer will look like in about two and a half seasons (though with about four levels more consistency).
