Haha wow. Thanks all for your advice. Just wondering how much to sell players for?

EDIT: In fact, how much should I buy players for? I looked at Scaly`s thing, but it didn`t make much sense. How much should I purchase the first player on Greg`s list for example?

I usually just put them out there for 0. If people want them bad enough the bidding on them will go up. You and I Nath are hardly at the place where we can dictate the minimum amount for players, unfortunately

What about the purchase of players Geg? Thanks a bunch by the way, it`s all a bit hard for me to get my head around, I suck at these sort of things (see Batracer).

Well, when I started out I set myself a limits on players (like 10k on certain med/med players and 20k on competents or something).

Whats your MSN? Probably best to discuss it on there, as with a lot of Battrick things.

Some bargin 17 year-olds on the market, and since I`ll only be playing this for a month most likely, decided to see if I could get a few. Currently have a squad of 21, with 7 on the market, and 7 offers made, hoping to end with around 18 players.

Now have 11 players who are 20 and under, some of them pretty darn good for what I`m looking for.

Accidently bid 16 000 quid for a bloke mind, might hit the bank a bit.

EDIT: Make that 14 players.

My YP had woeful stamina, batting and fielding I think with abysmal batting. Fired anyways.

Ended up buying back Obrien for a 70odd k net loss as I didn't quite have enough money to buy the wonderful-exquisite (I was 100k short before someone else bid again and made me 200k short). Obrien was going stupidly cheap anyway (1.35m - I sold Parr for 2m and he was marginally worse). Back to buying in the odd bargain that can fill in a spot, train them slightly and then selling them on later for a big profit. Not likely to buy anyone in time that'll strengthen my team for the CW BT Cup game tomorrow unfortunately.
