Haha same here, although my ground is 10,000 and needs to be brought in line with the correct ratios. Am looking forward to my game tomorrow, the team I'm fielding would be thrashed by the team I started off with in Season 2.

i have the correct ratios, just supporters confidence was down in the hole along with morale.

If things go well next season i might have a big upgrade.

Indeed, i hope i have made my side weak enough to lose tommorow

 

[GotSpin]

Should be an easy league im going into, with maybe one other possibly contesting with me and another fringe one. Hard to tell from their ratings since Morale is probably very high as well as fitness.

Looking at his players i dont think i have too much to be concerned about, with the highest wage being £3,119 and only two other players above £2000. I also have a feeling these are mainly secondries, since their current wages are very low

 

[marc71178]

i have the correct ratios

Can you remind us what those are?

What the hell was that guy doing

he most be on something

 

[GotSpin]

he most be on something

Could have been a fit of foul play..Marc by chance wasnt bidding on one of his players?

 

[marc71178]

Erm no, I don't want the bloke and would've been happy with the £25k as it's saving £2k wages!

 

[GotSpin]

just a joke. no need to get the stick out

 

[brenoevo]

Well iv decided im gona try and get into division 4. The team im playing in my qualifier seems to only have one real star player who has a wage of 13500 for next season and a btr of 50000+, but im not too worried as his PF is drained. Im playing GFI for the first time this season and hopefully my openers can get my score to 350+ on the hard and fast pitch against there comp-resp bowlers.

hey, just listened to the interview with Alan! - Adam, was that you asking the questions? Um, hopefully I'm not causing any offence by saying this, but you don't half sound like a Kiwi! But very professional all the same, didn't talk too much and followed up the interesting points as they arose, rather than sticking to a prescribed set of questions.

Anyway, most of you will have had your playoff matches by the time I'm next at my desk, so good luck to all of you - Or at least all of you who want good luck in any case - Crap luck to Got Spin and Andy...But hang on a sec...If I wish you crap luck, does that mean I'm wishing you to win after all - My brain's Aching now.

BTW, Gareth Jenkins is the new Wales rugby coach for anyone who's interested,

Later, Trev
