We just played, and beat, the number 8 ranked team Australia in our friendly today.

(20580)

Great performances all round but it was Sutcliff and MacLaws (currently on sale (18380573) - guaranteed high merc for a scottish team if he stays in good GS) dominating the boards which got us the shock victory.

Sure, it was a friendly match, but it's certainly fun watching us compete with the big-boys. I'm hoping we'll be underestimated next season, to the detriment of the opposition.

Well, with the merch-boost he'll probably not be that expensive. I hope he stays in scotland and in good GS. Let's see what happens next season :-) Amazing job, Calum!!

knowing the economic capability of the smaller nations, you might even be able to get both! Good luck

Phenomenal! Great work. $430k ain't bad though. Expect to get an approximate $30-$50k merc boost whenever he plays. Which will be every game when his GS is 8+

PS. He's still really young so he could totally get more training. I doubt you can handle much more salary, can you? If not, secondary training would be awesome. Especially JS

Yeeh im happy with that, tbh probably would have went up t0 6/700k. Yeh I was going to say that to you that at the momment I will struggle with that, constantly expanding my arena though so will try do a bit, hoping to get him some JS but will be focusing on making his GS is up and hopefully I can win a few games first...if i get knocked out the cup early i will try to get him training every week in JS or JR tho

Yeah, if you have any excess cash at all, put it into your arena.

Ideally you'd have an arena similar to mine but not so many bleachers. You realistically want to target something like:

Bleachers : 14500
Lower Tier : 5500
Courtside Seats : 500
Luxury Boxes : 50

You might even increase maximum if you increase the number of lower-tier to 8000, and dont even build any more bleachers. Depends on the money you have lying around.

And every game you're selling out is money lost!
