Just had a look at your team earlier today... I hope you can keep your Centre and move up... Might give me a chance next season.
It is a tricky thing, having a few good players AND being able to afford it. I went for the best PR man I could find to get as much $$$ as I could. I never spend money on the draft in the seasons I am trying to win. That $40k a week is a pretty good player, whereas the draft is pretty low chance of getting anything.
Greetings, Kintoc, great to see you poking your head in and saying hello. Welcome. Given that you've just come from Div II, I'd say that's some pretty sound advice, kintoc. I think the real shame about BB at the moment (if I had to complain about anything) is that Div III teams almost have to tank at least one full season if they have any chance of pushing through to Div II. Unless they get lucky in a draft and score a player or players who they can sell for $500k+ or more, or unless they can make awesome day-trading wins (buying cheap and selling for strong profits) tanking becomes the only viable option. It's a shame as tanking sucks! The only positive is that you get to focus more on the cup, training and arena.
@ SchaBoom, my write-ups aren't the best in Oz (thanks for the praise though) as I'v eread many great writeups in other leagues. I just like to do it to enhance the atmosphere of this great game. Cheers though.
In other news, I only just lost tonight (lol) and am already finding it hard to swallow 40+ point losses. "add tears here".
Ah well...as one manager once wrote...it's not a sprint but a marathon.
