As i said the tfifth team from the left("BB Kings") is possible to beat for you, it isn't easy but with current prices he haven't a big advantage with his current rooster when you spend the promotion Bonus wise and concentrate on the games you could win(because tactic isn't everybodys strength)

I would first look to get competive, and then invest in your arena but then you could be generous there and reinvest your income there.

Ok, i'll make sure I don't do stupid things with the promotion bonus. But then I'm not sure which players I should be buying...meaning their position. My team isn't so bad in outside shooting but also not so bad in inside shooting...

i am not 100% sure, but i believe you are training guards? So you could play 2 trainees there, and buy 2 big men(maybe defensiv specialist or allrounder) from your promotion bonus and big guys are very cheap at the moment so you could get solid quality for 500k.

Okay... here's my take... but you might or might not agree with me :)
Bear in mind a lot of assumptions are being made here!

Right now you have your 70k player but are still 4th, and not really dominating your league. 4th is still decent though.
What I find very alarming is your net income is - 2.7k. I play in a small country myself, so I've never had to work my butt off from the lower divisions and move up.
I really don't think that you require a 70k player at that division, but i've not looked at the other teams in your league. Firstly the income is insane and costing u to sell other players to cover the cost. Think about it this way, if you have a "A ++++ shooter" being defended by a "C defender", he'll score... but so will a "B shooter" who prob cost you 1/10 his price.

Bear in mind, you're not scouting atm. I'm assuming u stopped because you found a few players you like. Next season, when your players go up in income and you scout again, you'll be about 30k (estimate) in the negative every week. Which is not healthy for a young team that wants to build up.

What I would do personally is this I would sell that center, and buy two 10kish players. I'm not sure how much u can fetch from selling him. Since you are training guards, perhaps a strong SF with skills that a multi dimensional so u can play in more than one role. Then save the rest of the money to put into your arena.

If you are looking to build a team, it is a good idea to invest in your draft and pick up some nice players or buy strong trainees. This will give you a long term team that you can build up and move on to the higher division. And perhaps even the one above that when your trainees mature. I'm not one who is insane over super high potential players, but I'd look into getting an 18 year old all star with a nice skill set. And aim for promotion in 1 - 2 seasons.

Right now, being negative -2k (possibly higher later on) isn't a healthy long term prospect.

Just my two cents and my own POV. I'd suggest asking around to get some other opinions too : )

The 70k C was brought in last week, the team is worth better than 4th now.

weeso, what is the rational for buying this center, are you going for the championship ? It will be tough.

Be careful with your team finances. You will have a lower income during the next weeks, you will lose money. Your last two games are on the road, during the PO, you'll get 1/3 from tickets sells away and 2/3 at home. If your next season first game is on the road, you'll lose money again at the first economic update.
If you are not sitting on some cash now, you can quickly find yourself in trouble and your players asset is limited.

Thx for your opinion my freind and i think you've got a point, bu don't you think it will be a mistake to sell him now for tow reasons:
1- i just bought him last week so i'll recieve 80% of his price.
2-the market is down and his estimated price is 1.3M-1.5M.

am a little worry about those 2 reasons what do you think? should i sell him for 1.3 or less.

A quick question in the middle of this thread..
If a team is in a lower div and ends up in the playoffs but dont win it to promote.. However there are few teams, lets say 4 or 5, in the upper div that went BOT; would this playoff team promote automatically?

You're really short on cash, right ?

I wouldn't sell him now. Try your luck since you're there. If you win your 2 remaining games, you can finish 3rd, Cloporte will have a difficult game against Biokimikos.
If you end up 3rd, you can win the conf semis against the odds. The conf final will be a real challenge though. The more games you win, the more money you get.

If you can't win promotion, you'll need to sell your C or one young player with potential, it's your choice really, either way you'll have to buy at least one or two players . You can't rely on the draft too much.
If you choose to keep your C, you will still have a high wage player and it will be difficult to manage.
You need to build up your arena to develop your team and sustain higher wages, it should be a priority of yours from now on and you need to make a benefit for the investment.

I think i will only repeat what the previous guys said which is true.
Sell ur 70k C in the offseason for anywhere above a million and buy 2 players with salaries between 15k and 20k for that million. It will yield more results for you in the future as you will save at least 20k from your expenditures. After 2-3 weeks in the season you will be able to expand your Arena a little bit (a bit better than nothing) and start building up your revenues.

bot teams in higher divisions are replaced by the teams of lower divisions (that didn't achieve to promote normally) with the highest record of wins.. in case of a tie PD is taken into consideration
