This is the typical income in the Bulgaria Div.I. We are not that big of a country but mind you we aren't that small either. As you can see it is not that different from yours. In total the so-called big clubs you speak of do not make much more money than you. I do make more money (even with my screwed attendance) because of the rather small cost of my staff. But it took a lot of effort to find these. I can easily make some 30k or so more due to attendance if I manage to get a couple decent reserves which in turn will push my salaries way higher.

So you thinking the big teams and countries got an edge is totally wrong. I would take your division any day :) Last year with 12-10 (or was it 13-9) I barely avoided relegation playoffs. This year due to a lot of teams tanking I might make it to the playoffs.

Another one missing the point. It was about competeing in the B3, not anything else. Crazyeye answered this for me days ago, but thanks for your input.

@all: i hope the OT discussion is finally dead, and profanity don't have a place here in the Public forums

And i believe the numbers from china will top that also.

but the most intresting part, is what you get when you are the leader and i believe there is an smaller difference.

Thanks, shame it will only be short lived

Another one missing the point. It was about competeing in the B3, not anything else. Crazyeye answered this for me days ago, but thanks for your input.

Because I hear only complaints and in this way I see discussion will never end, so I have solution for You. Before first financial update in season (when TV contract is calculated) You should buy 10 players with salary >300-400k (they aren't expensive, especially after play-offs, because then they are useless). If possible You should ask all other managers in You league to do the same.
Then TV contract in Your league will be higher, because it depends on how strong players play in league.
After new TV contract is calculated You could sell (or fire) all mutants.

And still I don't agree that teams in small countries are in worse possition to fight in B3. As far as I remeber in previous B3 tournament two the strongest (? or the most expensive - it should be better term) teams came from small countries (Venomous Scorpions - Iran, Ball Bouncers - Cymru). Accident? How is it possible if we agree with Your arguments?

Well, what exactly was your point?

It does not matter what your income is. What matters is the profit you make. because if you make 1 million in income but pay 1,1 in expenses that won't be good right?

From what I see your pure profit per week does not differ much from mine. You make around 100k per week. Well, guess what, so do I. And so does the number 1 team in Bulgaria. So how does that put you in a disadvantage? You still get the same money. Now if you increase your salaries, you will increase income from merch.

Plus B3 is simply bragging rights. And no one is forcing you to be competitive there. If on the other hand you were suggesting that some leagues had advantages over others, well, that would have been a different story.

In real life it is more or less the same. try winning the Euroleague with the champion of Montenegro for example.

woooo...quite interesting discussion here is the details from my league/country INDIA
