I joined GU too, a few days before bainsy because I told him about it.
I am better than him. That is all!

I am just gonna buy a boss stadium and won't buy any players, good tactic?

I did pretty well in the IST 2011 but I don't know how to check how well lol.

Stazza83 hope you don't mind if I make a few comments. You have a dirt cheap roster -cheapest in the league which is great - bit I assume the Salary floor is about $70,000 so you could add $10,000 more and not actually pay a cent more each week.

Training will be your key this season but from here I can't tell what you are trying to do.

You have:
18 6'3" starter 4k PG
18 6'5" allstar 3k SG (injured for 3 weeks)
18 6'10" starter 4k C
19 6'9" MVP 3k C
19 6'2" allstar 4k PG
19 6'5" allstar 4.5k SG
19 6'0" pallstar 3.5k SG
19 6'0" pallstar 3.5k SF

To tell the truth I am not that impressed by any of them, but at least the last two have good height and potential but as 3.5k 19 year olds they are way behind. All these guys know how to train. I suggest you get three good trainees and make them into studs.

So assuming you will be training guards, a player like Antonio Tricomi is perfect for you, $10,000 a week and gets the job done. You could probably use another reasonable big man and a decent SF.

If you have 3 x 5k trainees.
4 x 10k guys at the other positions.
3 x 5k backups.
That would be about your $70,000 a week and would give you a better chance of winning the key games - which there aren't really many. Just stay above the Boganators and watch the bottom four in the Great 8 and make sure you can beat them.

Staff should be minimal. Max $5,000 each on doctor and PR - consider $2,000. Trainer I would try to get a level four fitness guy, you can get them with weekly salaries of less than $15,000.

Your arena is hilarious! Ticket prices must be changed before tuesday. Put the prices for lower tier and courtside way up, put luxury boxes up to near the max and build at least half a dozen. Arena = income. You MUST start building it, make this and training your top focus for the first 2/3 of this season.

Well that is a start, hope it is helpful. You are in a super interesting league and a tough one so good luck and good planning will be needed but at least it will be an interesting time.

Ideally you want to invest heavily on the facilities that generate income. Just as important are the facilities that increase your training capabilities and inturn, your individual player abilities. When you replace your older squad members with stronger players at a younger age, you are continually improving your squad and your bank balance. More wins means better division means better sponsorship means mo' money. Stadium is key, yes, but there is so much more around it that proves the difference between a good team and an average one.

The setup of 1st 2011 is bad because there are so many teams involved (the map of the tournament virtually requires you to have microscopic eyesight lol). All I know is I made it through the first round then knocked out in my two leg playoff to a team 10 strength points greater than mine in just the first XI.

Hi Yoda,

As a few of the lads are aware, I have absolutely no money to buy 3 decent trainees, so I chose the long way around to train what I had and sell them off (but they have advised me this is fraught with danger as I may not receive what I hope to when I do sell them). I guess I'm stuck with what I have for now until I build up a bank balance mate.

The level 4 staff all cost well above the measly biccies I have in the bank, so that's something that also has to wait.

My arena is a stinker I know lol, Ive changed prices to (as at 23/8):
BL: 12
LT: 55
CS: 165
LB: 1500

Thanks for all your advice mate, atleast when I get a bit of money in the bank I have a good idea now of what I want to do :)
