Battrick

I don't reckon you'll get 2.5 million for him next season, people hate buying old players and most people know that stamina drops happen around 32-33. Although that depends on how the markets going when you try to sell obviously. Now is a good time to buy because apparently prices are falling.

Same here, I haven't drawan or lost a game in FC this year

It looks like I'm going to finish second in V.237 for the third consecutive season, should be able to promote next season though (depending on who comes down obviously). I should get promotion in FC, there's 3 of us who could get promoted, but I have the easier run of games and with my OD position cemented I can go all out to win my FC games. I'm camping in my bt20 league, I could've got promoted but I would've got thrashed in IV, so I decided to stay where I am and threw a couple of games.

Ended up getting £5.5M for Appleby and bought 5 players with the proceeds. I know they all have deficiencies of some sort (some just form), but here they are:

Braddles, all the buys look good apart from Frith. With the new increased PFL hits he'll really struggle for this season and the beginning of next until you get his stamina up to around competant, especially as he'll be on a fitness net which will drain his PFL further. By the time he reaches decent stamina he'll be nearly 29 and stamina drops will kick in shortly afterwards. Looks like a short term solution to your keeping problems to me, I would probably train his stamina then sell him, you may make a profit as people don't always check age when they bid.

Apart from that it looks like you got some good buys which I'm sure wil strengthen your squad immensely and help you win more games.

On Friday I forgot to set orders agaisn't a BOT, so I had my full team out on a GFI, I made 417/0 (Marrison 223*, a club record) which is my highest first wicket partnership and highest total ever.

Wow, he's a scary player samache. Did he play for the NZ U19's?

Yeah I would train him up until he's about 22. It would be a waste not to get him to sensational bowling 

Oh wow ... what an amazing player.  Congrats dude.

I love his stamina and fielding skills.

congrats

My old team got bankrupt and deleted . Could not login for weeks, lost some great plays with exquisite skill levels. Created a new team in Sri Lanka now. 

Sloggers CC is the name, in division 4 now
