i got to say:
Sum, thx for retaking Marichal. take good care of him. i invested a lot in that player and went down to II to futher his and J-J's training. So you better make sure he's in good GS.
As for Fleeton, it's a shame that the change in the GE occures when i'll be forced to retire Fleeton from the NT. He was Belgiums best C ever, nobody could match him and he was instrumental in my 3rd NT season where Belgium went 7-0 in the qualifier (beating the likes of Portugal and Slovenko, good old day's :D)
But thanks to this, i'm going to be able to rebuild my team. It's just that i really didn't want to part with Marichal. i still can't believe that i'm going down again, despite having won 10 games!
i'm joining Ventola as the only team to have won double digit amount of games, yet despite that, being relegated directy to II. Worst part is, when it counted the most and with GS training, both my opponents that week had better GS ( the week when i faced the Spartans and RC, in which i went 0-2). That was where i lost my spot in the BBBL.
and despite direct regulation, i'm in the 5th drafting position. Talk about things being unfair...
Anyhow, nothing i can do about it. there were 7 managers in my division who did a better job than me, and all i can hope for is that someday i'll return to the BBBL. Tho i'm unsure if i still have the fight to do so. truth be told, the fact i'm 8th isn't only because there were 7 better managers, but because i've been lacking time this season. I can no longer combine GM and NT duties, while aspiring to have high ambitions for the BBBL. So come season 25, i won't be around for the election, but i know of a worthy candidate who will, and his name doesn't start with a J!
I seriously need some time off. and come season 25, i'm going to enjoy having a slightely more quiet mailbox. atleast the mails concerning spanish/italian/portugees/polish managers who are offering 20 to 30k star potential players, won't be for my mailbox anymore :D
Next season i either rediscover my passion for BB, or i'm going to start moving towards a BB exit in it's whole. i consumes to much time if you want to be competitive :P or atleast, i don't have the time with my bussy schedule :D
