They topped my division in my first season. Got promoted to your division last season. Haven't beaten them once.

They probably played their U19 stars when you played them. He's got three players with BT-rating of 50,000+, and only played one.

Holy crap, what a player. I'll take a guess and say around 4.5 million? A bargain, as Scaly said.

I knew he was going to be listed, which is why I listed some of my players. However the GMs listed him earlier than they were supposed to so I didn't have a chance to re-list my players for a lower amount, meh.

 

[andyc]

Gah, damn West Indies. Got up at 9:30 today (have work soon) to have a look at my game, and then I realised I was playing at Hakon's ground...

 

[nibbs]

against lowly cambridge team my side were very lucky. we were reduced to 6/3, then 20/5, with household cricketweb names such as hamshaw, duggan, waddell, and lennon, aka my top 4 batsmen all dismissed. anyhow, fry (109*) with assistance from wheat (52) and vermaak (31) led the recovery. although we went from 191/6 to 197/9, derick henshaw played his greatest innings to date with 23, his abysmal/feeble feeble batting outscoring my top 4 combined, saw the team post 252AO. from there it was my sides first time without holmes there to lead the charge. but sweeney, who is really starting to come into his own, took 4/25, leading the way as we rolled cambridge team for 151. victory next week will secure the title, then it'll be down to a simple matter of ensuring auto promotion, preferably to II.3. yeah

also i've heard rumours that next season's fc leagues will be based upon how sides did in this seasons cup competition, which if true means i'll start off in new zealand's top division. which will probably mean we're going to relegate.

Oh ok. Must have thought your team wasn't very good.

 

[roseboy64]

Got a worthless all around YP. Promptly fired. Next week I'll have 40 ITS to spend and I'll either put him on the market or keep him depending on my mood.

Am i missing something. Why are the GMs listing him?

The user probably went inactive.

Cruised to victory in Friday's league game with Causon 5/31, Tucker 54* and Wight 48* being the main contributers. Interesting that i got the same ratings on TIE that i have been getting on normal:

Dalmeny Cricket Club
Top Order: respectable
Middle Order: respectable
Lower Order: abysmal
Seam Bowling: quality
Spin Bowling: superb
Fielding: feeble

If that correct i might end up in the 5th division, as i got knocked out at the 2nd round. That would be good as i can work on my secondaries and stamina whilst still winning most my matches easierly.

although my team doesn't have the funds to be able to sustain ourselves if a bidding war develops, i will be online tomorrow, hoping to have a tilt at this guy. we just made a 24k profit after the financial updates. this included making 80k in interest with only 3 financial advisors. this felt pretty good tbh

 

[Adamc]

Am i missing something. Why are the GMs listing him?

He is an NT player and his manager has gone inactive, so he gets listed for £0.
