Also, I think your allegory is a bit of an exagerration. It is more like there are two parts of town: one that is really rich, another that is just rich. In both cities people are driving Ferrari's. It is just that the 2nd city is a bit bigger, so not everyone gets a Ferrari, but everyone can afford at least a comfortable mid-sized sedan.



in the first divisions, this is true
but the majority of BB managers comes from III, IV and V of the largest communities, and we have almost no power on the market

i rarely try to buy players, because it's a really frustrating experience

I seem to be missing the issue here.

1. Small-county teams run huge profits because their players are too cheap as compared to their weekly income.

2. Therefore they have an advantage on the transfer market...

3. ... where they will go to buy players with higher salaries.

Rinse, repeat. Problem solved.


4. this is THE SAME ANSWER we received 2 years ago

my question is: WHEN will the problem be "solved"?
let me guess... never?

Which particular part of the problem do you expect to get fixed?

Teams with high income and crappy players will always be in better position to spend on the transfer market -- that's not anything that's going to change, so don't hold your breath.

I did not do the exact sum, but your salaries look to be in the $200+ neighbourhood. To me, that's at least in the "comfortable mid-sized sedan" category, if not higher. Sorry if we have a different view on things.

Just to put more on you, my team have already 1 championship and one cup, with my salaries being only 183k. So most probably our Italian friend had better or equal team to mine.

I will repeat again. Countries with around 100 users and less are like the 1% of the BB. So i really dont think that we can have great effect on the transfer market as they want to make it look.

True because this persons are the same people who said that with the new tv contratcs and the new merchandising all would be different and would be more balanced, but the reality is another...

Im still curious(and lot of managers are) to read what are the BB's opinion...

3. ... where they will go to buy players with higher salaries.
at the risk of running in circles in this thread, at message 55 in here my own answer to this was lazy cartels that continue to run high savings rates and do NOT spend it all (except maybe on ridiculously expensive multiskillers with comparably low salaries): (129389.55)
to say something substantive about this would require a graph that plots average weekly profits in div 1's against number of users in the country.

Well, money doesn't win games, players do. Therefore running high savings is not necessarily a problem.
