the way scouting is set up at the moment, it doesn't give you any incentive to spend that much money. I don't see why they can't reveal more detail about the players instead of balls.

You need to get your head out of tanking. lol
You see teams in NBA tanking for first pick all the time. Now with the salary floor in place I don't think it's that beneficial to tank while risking relegation.

I decided not to waste money on scouting a couple of season ago. Much better to save up and know what you are buying in the transfer market.

Well since it is such an acceptable form of strategy I might just tank this season. With how young my list is I will get good sale value, plus saving 200k pw at the salary floor, I'll be able to forget all about tactics and buy my way to promotion. The league will suffer as a result but since everyone is so understanding no one will care anyway...

Yes, that is correct. If promoting is what you are after, then you use the best and easiest strategy for this. While I find tanking very boring, so I have a different approach. Also tanking isn't that easy as it seems, not many can tank and promote. Look at Naker Virus, he has been tanking it for 2 seasons and yet to promote.

Phew, Bears. Almost had me there. Glad to come out with the win but you definitely had me sweating when it pushed into OT. Glad the refs were on my side this game!

Thought that my team may have just done enough in normal time but could not finish it off and payed for it in OT. Congrats anyway. This results now makes both longest serving II.1 teams start with a 0-4 record :(

Spewing my slightly exaggerated bid for an aussie player didn't work out a few nights ago. However, i do have my eye on a few other players, so hopefully i get some new players soon. May need to fire a couple staff members though so i don't lose money each week.

Instead petrol prices go up each week. Can't win!
