Yeh, I figured you'd TIE or unlikely... CT.
I could've done one of about 3 things to make sure I won it, but took a chance which ya have to do a bit if you want to continue somewhat deep into the cup and still compete in the league.

Yeah, I meant to throw the first game, win the second against YPB (on the assumption he was tanking), and buy new players and make a run from then on. Didn't expect to win the first...

not sure why bellamy didn't start as he has been in great form lately. Adam over henderson any day, and gerrad to push more forward.

On the day, we were way to slow moving forward therefor not creating enough chances. Oh well, we still have a couple of cup matches to look forward to.

You are currently losing $906. Negitive pbrofit is 99% of the time not good. Unless you believe that you can make it to the ABBL next season, then here is my advice...

How much profit were you making during the relegation series with the centre who had a salary $170k
higher than your opponents whole roster?

radford never put in the red for starters. i also only lost ended up losing around 200k in the end, all afteri bought the other players to help me survive (around 1.25m all up since buying radford), but let not get back into that pointless argument again. even though i accidently bought radford and could not sell him for 1k, i did what was necessary to stay in this div. $1 more or 170k more than my opp, t all means nothing if u wanna make sure your team benefits.

Anyway, the radford argument has no place in what i said as that was short term.. my may concern with fishy is that, with staff wages going up every week and players wages going up agin next season, he may need to try and counter that now. my advice may not be the best, but it definately is one way to go about it. as i also said, i dont know what his plan is, or what his financial situations is. So therefor i can only give advice on my past experience.

I wasn't bringing up the radford argument again. There isn't really an argument to bring up. It was an undeniable waste of money and lack of knowledge on your behalf.... All I was asking was how much profit you were making when you had a $470k salary to save relegation against a team who had a $217k salary? Just thought it seemed odd that you were handing out financial advice a couple of weeks after you had made one of the worst financial decisions i have seen.

And just so you know... You didn't lose 200k on radford. Had you sold him for $1 a day after you bought him (unlikely you wouldn't get more since there are plenty of idiots out there) and bought a $100k c who would have been just as effective, you would have lost 1 million. You had him for 5 weeks so at a 260k loss per week plus the 200k, you actually lost closer to 1.5 million...

Just that you wouldn't bring it up again. I thought it was over.

(edit: changed "would" to "wouldn't")
