It's the same with the difference that in 2 days you'll have the match at home, so in the worst case you can "lose" players for 48 hours. Tomorrow I'll have my first TV live it means 15 days after the beginning of the season... Anyway, these are just opinions; we discussed in Italy and everyone said that maybe something should be modified (we are discussing how to do that) but I don't see how you can say that it's the same having the money now or having the money at the end of January. I stop here, my position is clear, if someone has some proposals to change this system I think BBs will be happy to discuss with us ;)

Random factors like this even out in the long term. Last season my TV matches were towards the end. This season, they are towards the front. You plan and play accordingly.

Mabye it won't even out, The first season my first TV game occured after the seventh cup match, the last two seasons the first tv game has occured after my second cup match. That's three seasons of a disadvantage!!!!

i suppose 2 people signing up from 2 different countries on the same day is unfair too? as 1 gets to play his games a few hours before...?

come on mate... there is a big difference betweeen certain random factors like injuries but I imagine TV money as a bonus..

do Sky Sports look down the football fixture calendar and think oh lets be fair and give everyone a live game on day 1?

the game is new and some things will no doubt be ironed out but lets not try and pick at points that IMO are more realistic than random.... which is ultimately the direction we all want this game to go...

In BB's second season overall (your first season), everyone's first TV game occurred after the seventh cup match. I'm not sure how you're at a disadvantage with that.

Why do you see that as unfair?

You just could make your investments a little later. Now you had the money to improve your team just before the playoffs because of you late tv-games. Maybe I find that unfair? (I don't ;)

I do think this will even out, since everyone will most likely just invest at another point in the season, but at the end of the season everyone has the same amount of money recieved from TV-games.

That is correct but my main complaint is that early when lots of good draft picks were going for not a lot of money i had no money to invest where a tv game would have given me 275k+possible ticket money. That's the part i really see as unfair. Also my arena is over 10k seats, so that could have been one heck of a pay day.
