Masonity posted:He basically cost me my week's income. I completely forgot there was a delay in when you win and get a player, so I doubled up on a few prospects. Wasted some money and spread some DV thin, think this is a case where "if you get injured you're gone". Bought a couple of vets for relatively cheap who I will probably grind to dust. Really only going to train my prospects with the best DV for the rest of the season and go shopping before next season starts in earnest based on my change report.

I tried to sell my prospect but no-one bit. I've gone for a "buy results short term, hope the long term looks after itself" approach which will serve me well for a season or two then see me tumble down the divisions once it catches up with me.

Fuckin possession almost the whole game, other teams good GK red carded out how the gently caress couldn't we score a single goddamn goal. Is there a button to fire your team into the sun?

No, but you could always channel that rage into writing a humorous press release so we can all enjoy a hearty chuckle.

DivineCoffeeBinge posted:soap soap soap We're two or three weeks in and I've been soaped twice already. One missed, the other caught a decent enough player. But didn't hurt results, as I shuffle my team / formation game by game anyway. Save your soap for other, closer rivals who you have a chance of beating, and just resign yourselves to the fact I'm winning rnC by game 12, and will treat the last two games as a victory parade. Give the Sheds soap, we make soapade.

I haven't spent more than like 200k on anyone, but my original team had almost literally no one usable. At this point training is more of an investment than the player themselves, so I'm just kind of yolo'ing with form.

Of my 21 players, 11 are starting squad, 2 youths and 8 purchased in. I also bought in some pretty decent (better than any starting players) 68k & 97k transfers to fill in the squad. I'd say it's more down to the <100k bargains I picked up than it is a great starting squad.  Edit: drat, the squad you posted on page 1, was that starting or post spending all your money? Because I'd have killed to have that as a starting squad! Masonity fucked around with this message at 18:41 on Feb 27, 2021 |

I'd say it's more down to the <100k bargains I picked up than it is a great starting squad. That was after spending all my initial money. I've added a couple of veterans since then as able, along with a little form training for the more promising prospects. At this point I'm about at the chaos reigns point of saving cash and letting form be form and see who thrives and is worth investing in next season while everyone else is sacked or sold before rounding out the squad.

Next match is in 6 hours, get your tactics in. Not you Bromo-Dragonflies!  Just don't dig near our secret underground lab where we are trying to re-create Uwe Mehle.

Looks like Sheds of Grey is the last team to keep their winning streak going. Also they now have the highest goal differential, beating mine by one goal.  When does the press release bonus reset, is it on Tuesday nights like the sponsor bonus?

Just played this cup match. I managed a 0-0 draw and I red injured his best forward. He is active so I imagine he isn't too happy about it. I did buy a 33/10 moody 1on1 GK that played at 14 too so the 2 chances he got were blocked.

It happens. I rage-sold my 29/15 official league keeper after a cup round where his back-to-back 0% save percentage saw us out-possess 61-39, out-chance 8-2 and lose 2-2 on an away goal.
