Oi what levels are you going to stop training Watkins at? Exquisite/Exceptional?

 

[Adamc]

Anyway this is what the team looks like now that Watkins has popped.

[B]Name		Age     BTR	Batting		Bowling	      WK[/b]
Cuss		23   35,758	wonderful			
Watkins		21  121,103	exceptional	quality	
Whitehorne	21  147,761	superb		sensational	
Ashton		19   31,751	superb			      superb
Malik		21   40,905	competent	superb	
Symon		18    5,593	proficient			
Boeta		22    6,574	respectable			
Challis		30    5,685	respectable			
Bell		21    3,737	competent			
Crabb		30   11,576	abysmal		strong	
Harewood	17    8,420	worthless	proficient

Obviously need to start filling out that middle order, will probably spend some money to do so soon. Symon is on the market now for 200k, no takers yet. Would like to sell Crabb and get a better bowler as well, would be nice to have five superb+ bowlers next season (Harewood should reach superb within the first few weeks). Ashton should be quality/quality in two weeks.

Will probably stop his bowling at the next pop, dunno about batting. I don't really want him to be my main seamer, 1) because he's an allrounder and 2) because he's defensive so he never takes wickets anyway. Although he'll still be my best seamer for a while yet.

 

[PY]

Haha wish I had two all-rounders that were that gun.

And if I'm honest, Malik would be gun in my side.

 

[Adamc]

Interested to see if Whitehorne plays for England tomorrow against Australia. Could potentially be quite beneficial to me - if he plays 10 weeks I'll get 300k reimbursement. The PFL hit is fairly insignificant since I'm out of the cup now.

 

[Jamee999]

Here's my squad. Can't get it to code right.

 

[Jungle Jumbo]

What will happen when FC is (hopefull) reintroduced next year RE international games? Are they going top be played at a different time?

Don't use tabbed spaces when you're doing this. Simpler without them

Currently bidding on:

1. Eamonn Cogan (45123)
LH Batsman, LFM Bowler, superb batting form, superb bowling form, sublime
A defensive player with worthless leadership skills and feeble experience.

Plays For: Red Army Faction
Nationality: England
Age: 25 Years Old
Battrick Rating: 11,438
Wages: £1,791 p/w

Stamina: feeble Wicket Keeping: respectable
Batting: respectable Concentration: competent
Bowling: feeble Consistency: feeble
Fielding: abysmal

He'd be very useful to bat at about five, and fill in the gaps. Nix is a very good batsman, but ulitmately, a competent will probably not be good enough for IV, even at 8.

 

[Agent TBY]

Haha Red Army Faction.

 

[PY]

Trouble makers!

 

[The Baconator]

Just a concentration pop for Umar this week, and a friendly loss against another II side, who are in 5th or 6th I think. Looks like I got a bit lucky to be in the division I'm in.

 

[Jungle Jumbo]

Haha Red Army Faction.

They're still selling several players on the market.

Will they allow this transfer?

 

[superkingdave]

hmm, another barren week in training, a useless conc pop for Pearce notwithstanding.

Should be more interesting over the next few weeks, pretty certain Challinor should pop to quality batting next week (maybe a conc pop aswell) and Norris may pop to superb bowling. Pearce also can't be far off strong bowling. Islam should hopefully pop to remarkable bowling within 3 weeks.

Half my problem is not keeping track of what nets i've given people.

 

[Johnners]

Gutted.

yes.... went and spent the money..... went from 300k in the black, to 8k in the red

Still, i got this fella yesterday, overpaid for him, but i needed a bowler with decent secondaries!! He should pop sometime soon to resp bowling

Isn't the top of the competent wages around 750-800?

 

[nibbs]

todays training:

Duggan to remarkable concentration
Sweeney to proficient consistency

 

[Robertinho]

Sold Jones for 571k, which means I still have 1mil+ in the bank, will be up to around 1.2mil by Friday. Yeah

 

[NZTailender]

Will let you know in a couple of days if I get any emails. Nothing so far...

Adam, do you think I should do another sign up?
