Mmm yeah, will be a tough match regardless of match orders looking at your opponent. The killer is members' confidence though, only had 15 sign up today after getting 25-30 for the last six or so updates. Need a couple of wins to get that back up to maximum.

Adamc · 24-10-2005, 09:58 PM

Really want this guy:

Code:

3. Vimesh Malik   £120,611 (Gargantuans)
Plays for: Stryke XI 	Stamina:	woeful 	      W/Keeping:	abysmal
Age: 18 years old 	Batting:	mediocre 	Concentration:	feeble
BT Rating: 2,916 	Bowling:	competent 	Consistency:	abysmal
Deadline: 26/10/2005 6:30 	Fielding:	mediocre

18yo competent spinner who can bat a bit, exactly wait I need. With training he'll be a definite first XI starter by next season. I suspect he'll probably go for over 300k though. I'm willing to sell one of my players in order to get him, probably my other opening batsman, Bridge. He's 21yo respectable bat with mediocre WK, might just list him for 200k and if anyone bids I'll try to get the guy above. 331k in my account so far and the promise of an additional 120k in gate receipts on Friday, so I'm willing to pay quite a lot.

GRRRRR... I've still had no-one better than woeful in a primary skill yet and your academy can't be better than mine because you've not been in charge that long.

Adamc · 25-10-2005, 06:30 AM

Hmm, a 19yo mediocre/competent allrounder just sold for 128k. The player I'm after will probably cost a bit more because he's: a) 18; and b) a spinner, but I'll be happy if I get him for less than 200k, as it will mean I won't have to sell Bridge or anyone else for that matter. He's already up to 146k though, and still 18 hours or so till deadline. If I get him I'll put him on two batting coaches straightaway as I have no other young batsmen, probably two bowling coaches as well. If he pops to competent I'll have 9 batsmen in my starting XI at competent+.

And Robertinho... @#$%$#!@.

look what I got.

quiet happy with it as I really needed a batsman!
150k though

Form's a bit of a worry, hopefully that'll recover, overall I'd say a bit pricy but I'm sure you'll get most of your money back if you choose to sell him in a couple of seasons - unless everyone starts getting academies like Robertinho...
