Funny to see everyone panicking about the subsidy being removed. Hopefully that panic will extend to them putting their gun players on the market.

Hilarious. Am £450,000 in debt.

bugger and i thought i was in trouble with 106000

 

[Nate]

Will sell some gun to avoid bankruptcy.

 

[Adamc]

Haha, you're ****ed.

 

[Agent TBY]

The hell? Why would they remove the subsidy on a week where virtually nothing happens?

Shocking.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Hahaha, sucks to be you Nafe.

 

[FaaipDeOiad]

What sort of stats does a 19 year old need to make the u-19 side? Pietersen should be hitting superb in batting and bowling soon, and he's about to turn 19, but I suppose that's a bit short of the standard?

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Yeah, he'd have to be superb before he was 18. That's with strong+ stamina and seconds, probably good fielding too.

I've got an exceptional 19yo, and he barely makes the side.

And that's for India, btw.

Got absolutely slaughtered in my friendly today against a Div V side. The honeymoon period is over - I could be in for a long season...

 

[Nate]

Haha Hakon. Sneaky bugger changes his pitch from green to flat without me noticing.

Not the best few days.

Should make a big total.

(In fairness, it's part of a grand plan. Signed a spinner today.)

 

[Magrat Garlick]

Wages up about 30 % to 84,000 - plus 6,000 for the new quality 21yo spinner. Mainly due to my wickie costing money though.

Players are aging tomorrow, which means that wages should be recalculated as well. My biggest increases will be Canning (currently 30,988), Terry (5,582), Potgieter (2,913) and Burger (702). Total wages currently at 63,983. Canning's wont be pretty at all, and I suspect Terry could be getting pretty high.

Canning 30,988-->49,080
Terry 5,582--> 14,326
Potgieter 2,913--> 8,012
Burger 702--> 2,431

Dire stuff about the matches being re run. Sure, I won this one by 10 wickets instead of 7, but Canning only took the 1 wicket.

I've got an easy cup match at least, their best rating is mediocre.

 

[PY]

My wages are going to be foul. Gone up a long way, not sure why my salary total is way higher than people who are getting better ratings than me...

 

[Spitfires_Fan]

Haha, love the fact that my game was replayed! First up, I got hit for 344, and then skittled for 48. Second time round, I 'limited' them to 342 and made 203 myself. Much better!

I assume you're talking BT20 cup?

 

[EARLOBE]

The team that got relegated to my league is a bot.

My wages only went up $2,000 so that's not too bad. I'm going to miss that subsidy, what's the limit before you go bankrupt? I might have to sell a trainee.

 

[Nate]

£350,000. Pretty much banking that I get an awesome trainee. Have my Academy Condition on Superb.

Well played Hak.
