So maybe take Perpete's advice and just pay the floor and be happy with 100~200k beyond costs you'll make weekly anyway.

What type of advice is that, really? If the environment does not allow to compete in the higher league, we don't need to discuss if tanking is an issue, if it is a way of playing the game that is seemingly forced upon managers.

I am shopping for an older guy to close the gap and see where I will end up in the next few weeks - possibly the lost skills won't hurt as much as I expect. Maybe a good chunk of money from a rookie sale comes in, who knows....

Yup, those are my options and I think I will have to balance between all four of them.

I'll sell two more young guys, get one old guy (hey at least they have the XP advantage), waste my precious time in the hunt for a legit player, only to overpay anyways.

Hey,

I'm in the same situation was 80000 under salary floor, cost me 2600000 to get above it! The players i bought are not even D1 standard..

I personally think they have to fix the bonus if they are going to have such a high salary floor in D1..

Surely the bonus should cover the purchase of 1 outstanding player?

With current prices the bonus needs to be closer to 5Million right?

So i should tank?

With my extremely salary efficient side i went 21-1 in Dii ive already been back in dii for 2 seasons of training, i did plan ahead but then the market went crazy due to utopia.....

I should try not to promote to save money???

LOLLLLLL

No there isnt that option because the game enforces a minimum salary...but you have to pay for salary....or just give money away.......i accept your point about forward planning but still feel 1.5mil is peanuts in todays buzzerbeater, not enough to even buy player for salary floor.

Transfermarket if quite crazy right now and I also feel bad about spending 3M to 5M for players that still need some training to be competitive (but with good potential and decent skills for their age). Still with 2.6M you could have made a little extra money in the coming weeks and bought a player that's good enough to contribute on this level (see my Yan Chin Mong and Mauricio Lopez buys, MVP+ potentential and young enough to train from backup to starter level at Div I).

Taking the Dutch salary floor of 400k and weekly income of about 780k you could have made more than 300k weekly and combining that with the 2.6M you already had spend it on a nice player. And being under the salary floor wouldn't have cost you anything...just the feeling of giving 80k away weekly instead of giving it to a "not even D1 standard" player.

So I feel your pain with high prices on the market. But you'll soon notice the high income in D1 and how quickly you can earn money with such a low salary team and upgrade it.
