Just realised ZCC's groundsman Din Khalil has been in decline.

57 years old, 0 Adjustment skill and 8 Consistency. Used to be higher than that (definitely not 0).

It's a shame because he was a starting player at ZCC. Has 243 wickets for the club, and played in our very first game back in Season 1, which incidentally was against a team that is now known as Dynamo Morpork! Entered our Hall Of Fame in Season 3, when he took 69 senior wickets across 32 matches.

I really don't want to fire him - would be losing a part of our history - but that does mean the door is open now for us to hire a 2nd groundsman. Unfortunately no one in either squad is turning 30 soon, so if any CW team has a 30 year old they'd like to offload we could probably offer them a job as groundsman for a couple of seasons.

All good things come to an end...

Yea sadly.

Kinda regret selling off Bikswing Nouding now! Had I noticed earlier I'd have gotten him back at ZCC tending the pitch on which he took bags of wickets. Instead he got a coaching job at another club and was fired soon after :(

I've been relatively lucky with getting former club legends at coaches/groundsmen at both clubs. Also have a former BD Nat player coaching at ZCC too. Eventually one was bound to get away.

The Buy Ins have a 30 year old on the market, going to sign him up and train him to handle our pitch for a few seasons. I think he'll do a job with Din Khalil till Raun Shkorer is ready to retire...

Which, judging by the (lack of) batting talent in the ZCC wings, will probably be when he's 36. :ph34r:
Speaking of which, that 48 pot bat Gould is going for nearly 3 million. Yikes. I paid 2.7 mill for Zack Yattack and 3 mill for Raun Shkorer back in the day and people told me I overpaid.

Seems like the future of ZCC batting is either going to be be 43 pot batters down till 8 or picking up ageing guns from the TM to fill in the gaps...
