Calendar discriminates Obira financialy for the third season in a row.
Now (third game) we had to play against Phoenix....AWAY...
O.k. .....random shit happens all the time...but Phoenix is also my rival team... (double shit)
Our fans are not that happy...( despite our two victories)
O.k. ...it's random and we can have another TV. game....17/05... AWAY (Wizzards)
At last on 25/06 we have a TV game at home...finally !!!
Last two seasons we had the same problem with Pokola and SSS...TV away...+ rival team.
This is a financial disaster for Obira...and it will cost us about 1 000 000...(revenues go down 60 000 every week foralmost three seasons)

Teams who are lucky to play TV games at home earn more and more .....
Why can't we have a home game against the rival when we have to play our TV game Away.
Check the calender and the rival games....Tienen and Liege are with Obira the unlucky ones...
Even the fan shop was a disaster this morning...we get an average for two seasons between 85 000 and 95 000...
but this morning 67 000 ...?????????? (I still have the same Belgian players)
Fans are so ungrateful ! (we are doing fine, but the fans don't like it)
At the end we can't buy the decent Belgian players on the market...(story without an end ???)

Maybe this is not the right forum...but it's our forum !!
Greetings... and yes it's only a game and there are worse things in the world.
ps. I still like BB !!!!!!!!!!

I can understand my dear as i have the same problem... Not funny (and good for the budget!!!) to have Vottem as rival team every season!!! and to play the first TV games away... I am therefore thinking to go back to second division in order not to have the same rival team anymore :P
Not easy to balance the budget in those conditions...
Having one of the lowest budget of the BBBL this season (i am asking myself how some of the other teams manage it btw) it should not be too complicated to be in second division next year... but with a balanced budget :)
ps. I still like BB too !!!!!!!! ;-)

As I said just before, it's because to our history that we are rival teams. I'm not sure that a transit by D.II changes something ;)

What do you mean by "one of the lowest budget"? You begin to have many Belgian players and two of them are in NT, so your merchandising should be very high. The TV revenues are the same for every teams and your arena is big enough. So I'm not sure to understand...

Salary Budget i meant... i am only the 11th one of the BBBL... 250k lower than Vottem... and concerning the marchandising, if 92k is high for you, yes therefore i am high.... but it doesn't explain how you can pay 780k of wage and with quite good trainers, around 100k for them i suppose... what means quasi 900k of costs per week...while i have revenues of 720k... i am therefore not in position to compete....the level is too high for me now... Just trying to make my team a bit more "Belgian"... and Let's happen what will happen :P

Don't forget that you have sold your best player (Brunialti) 10 days ago and fans don't like that. That's why you have lost money from merchandising. I had the same problem last season after the sale of Lupinac

how long will they complain about that ???
