[ash chaulk]

ok so who wants to challenge my team???

 

[Adamc]

Damn, my next cup opponent looks awesome, even though I'm supposed to be the higher seed. They had a top order rating of 'remarkable' in the reporter's summary for their last game, and their bowlers seem pretty good too. They also have a slow pitch, which sucks. If they GFI they'll almost certainly win, unless all of my star players have a good match.

[GotSpin]

Next season/cup starts after the end of this season (obviously), which is another 11 rounds plus a two-week break. FC subsidy is 37.5k per week (under miscellaneous income). Ash chaulk's team is Viveash, btw.

Not definite yet, but next season is the target date. They're only 3-day matches though, so I'm going to have to get a few more wicket-taking bowlers before then...

What's your team name, btw?

 

[GotSpin]

Damn thats a long time to organise friendlies for :P

 

[GotSpin]

lol so is it a date.. lol for the challenge.. or am i not up to scratch?

 

[andyc]

I want to challenge you but it says you've already got one arranged. Give it a day or two and I will. You can try and challenge me if you want but do you mind if it's at my ground? Could do with a bit of money, that's all

Revenue from friendlies is split 50/50.

You dont get much ...Also, how long did it take u guys to get into the positive financially for each week

You won't make a profit every week, because you only have home games every second week. I lose over 30k each week I don't have a home match. You should be making a fortnightly profit though, what are you player and staff wages like?

Bout one or two weeks. Depends on how much I bid on players that week.

And thanks for that Adam
