I don't think you'll be getting smashed Allan will probably wake the Divs kinda even

FC Leagues will be different. Rumours suggest that they will be based on teams cup ranks this season.

Furthermore, Adam, your thoughts on this player? He is priced at £2,795,000 which I can afford quite easily. Consider he has averaged 10 in the county championship this season, I also expect he'll be a great FC player. I can't see why he'd wouldn't be a good addition to the squad, even at that price.

I was actually planning on buying him to replace Louis.

 

[dontcloseyoureyes]

Ooooh it's on now.

There's tonnes of amazing players on the market at the moment. Wish I had some cash.

 

[33/3from3.3]

well i got to round 4 (last 256)
Div 1 = 8
Div 2 = 32 (40)
Div 3 = 128 (160)<---------- Could be very very low Div 3
Div 4 = 512 (672)<---------- Or quite high Div 4

What's wrong with Lois? Seem's a decent bowler from his stats

 

[Adamc]

I hope they don't do it based on cup rankings, I want to be in an easy FC league. I think that's just conjecture though, haven't heard anything authoritative about FC leagues yet.

 

[Adamc]

He is, but I want an upgrade. Cameron is a level lower in bowling but ten levels higher in conc, so would be a fair bit better I assume. I don't have much loyalty to any of my players except Cuss, so they're liable to find themselves on the transfer market at any time. Also I'm bored at the moment as I don't really have much to play for for the rest of the season, so I'm messing about on the transfer market.

 

[andyc]

Am praying for a Div 5 FC league myself. My stamina and secondaries in general aren't very good, especially since Canning probably won't be playing, and I fear I'd be slaughtered in Div 4. Should be able to match it in OD though, although that does depend on the league I get of course. As long as I don't end up in the same one as before, I should be fine.

 

[33/3from3.3]

you up for a match Gympi

uh oh

 

[nibbs]

say, adam, how much have you got in the bank at the moment...?????!!?!!?

 

[Adamc]

Including the money from Louis, about 3.9m, would have a bit more but I just ordered a 240k ground expansion. Not planning on spending it all though, want to keep a bit to earn interest off.

 

[AussieDominance]

ive got - somehing!!!

 

[andyc]

Is that meant to be directed at me? If so, then yeah, why not. My ground.

this is certainly one heck of a quandary we find ourselves in here, adam

How high are you willing to bid? I doubt I'd go over 3m so if you're planning to bid that high I could save you some money by not putting in a bid at all. I'm not really fussed, I don't need a new bowler urgently.

 

[AussieDominance]

why? i didnt do anything?

 

[nibbs]

hmm, well, yeh, if necessary i probably would break the boundarys of 3mil. although earlier tonight i did agree to a 3.6mil signing of lovers wray, although i don't intend to honour that agreement. my preference certainly lies with cameron atm

 

[Adamc]

Fair enough, no need for me to get into a bidding war with you then. I'll wait till someone suitable turns up on the market, though I'm not sure if I'll be able to beat Hakon on Sunday with a 2.5-man bowling lineup.
