Ha, thanks for the little bit of confidence, my bad JW I had thought I put you in there as well, you are def on my radar after a few seasons of soo close!

Tonight didn't help but I want to ride the cup a bit longer, took a punt on Doc actually tanking but clearly he has just been suffering a tough league and conference.

O^* Ticking bomb


Thanks for explaining mate, thought it must've been spaghetti :P

You were a bit unlucky for sure.

It is that time of season where upsets because of the "cup focus" and or the "lack of it", can occur.

Sandhill Ants over Mllama was another upset IMO.

Will be a tough week for the Great 8 teams next week as we are playing at the home courts of the Big 8 teams.

Im on the lookout for a short term lease player to get me through the next 3 or 4 games and help cover for my injured player

A home game would be nice. Given that I've played 4 of my last 5 games away, I think my fans may forget about me.

Bit of a tough decision to make.

Red Star Bayswater who are a Div 3 team, have 4 players over 25K, and they sacrificed their last league game to allow all of their best players to be able to start against my guys in the cup tomorrow night.

After 2 tough league games and with the injury to my backup PG/SF, I dont have a lot of spare minutes from my best players that would allow them to play in this cup game.


Should I,

Concede this game and chase flags

or

Buy 3 really Solid players in the next day so as to ensure me a win

or Run my best players into the ground with too many minutes (not happening)

Not sure that my habitual Cup Curse is going to keep me in the cup to enable me to reach the Quarters as per usual, unless I buy more players

The good thing is you know what you're going to be up against. Now it becomes a question of whether you can find the right players at the right price to get you the win.

I'd be thinking these players will be handy for you come finals time. Pity cup income is only 50k and you can see your next opponent.

Market is overs for price and I got to admit its more tempting to sell than buy

It wouldnt just be 1 player that I would need as I would need a minimum of 3

I couldnt justify the expense of keeping 3 such players and your right the 50 K isnt going to cover this expense.

Would be nice to have a crystal ball-

What would be the string of opponents be that I would face if I continued to win?
How much will my attendance drop if I allowed myself to get knocked out of the cup this week?
& for fun, how much would my existing ranking drop if I lost?

Starting to think I might be good for a change to have an early exit and chase flags

O:) My primary focus is on the training of my 3 trainees


Forget the GS hit. Put in a team that will win and advance to the next round. You're in no chance of demoting.

Unless... you're looking to promote ;)

Might be an opportunity to break the Cups curse and chase flags, incase all the Micro Nations disappear

Might be easier to get flags in micro nations if the two team rule for supporter goes thru.
