Already have it tbh

Been looking for a resp batsman for 5 hours. Passed up a 650k bargain in hope of getting something better. Will keep you all updated. It's really exciting.

No chance of that happening I'm afraid. Takes too much time, not enough happening on the international scene to keep me interested (particularly as most players are elite/elite now) and as reigning WC champions there's not much to aspire to.

As for 'best club in the world', labrooy has everyone beat ATM.

Oh, and I think the only thing less likely than Scaly being elected is him actually announcing his candidacy.

trevor_vayro · 30-05-2008, 10:01 AM

Oh why? has Scaly been exercising his own particular brand of diplomacy in sledging? Or is it more to do with a general lack of enthusiasm for BT these days? As I say, sledging doesn't work with my computer, so I have little or no idea of the politics of the world beyond CW.

Just thought it would be fun to have a CW project.

And Nandon, my YPs still going cheap. Med Stam, Med WK, Resp Bat, Woe Conc. All yours for £500K, otherwise I'm going to have to buy him back.

Later, Trev

Was going to, but got someone similiar for 350 sorry.

EARLOBE · 30-05-2008, 05:35 PM

Not a single bid on my med/med/med bat yet

NZTailender · 30-05-2008, 06:13 PM

My comp-comp went for 16k. ****ing steal.

chaminda_00 · 30-05-2008, 08:53 PM

YP these days equal all or nothing. Interesting as I reckon half these days that are spending stupid money on youth pulls would probably only end up putting a couple nets on the players.

Nnanden · 30-05-2008, 09:56 PM

Did well to get my batsman, but fell asleep during my two others. Dire.

Yeah, the market for 17yo's is pretty stupid. Sold my YP (resp/worthless bat, med/med bowl, med stamina) for 200k, while a similar player (resp/worthless bat, med/feeble bowl, feeble stam) with a higher wage didn't sell at a reserve price of 10k. That allrounder going for 12m is obviously ridiculous as well, pretty sure it will be adjusted down significantly though.

EARLOBE · 31-05-2008, 02:06 AM

Another med/med/med YP.

Stefan Kiely (1882259)

LH Batsman, LM Bowler, respectable batting form, respectable bowling form, fresh fitness.
A steady player with abysmal leadership skills and worthless experience.

Plays For: Anchormen
Nationality: Australia
Age: 17 Years Old
Battrick Rating: 5,485
Wages: £863 p/w
Stamina: mediocre Wicket Keeping: worthless
Batting: worthless Concentration: woeful
Bowling: respectable Consistency: competent
Fielding: worthless

12 stamina, 12 bowling and 11 consistency. Woohoo. It's a shame I already have way too many Medium bowlers. Will list him and hopefully use that money to change to an F/FM.

Nnanden · 31-05-2008, 02:32 AM

..what's the problem with medium bowlers?
