HT Youth Pulls

[* ORM *]

Certainly not complaining - I don't think he is strong enough for U20 but I've mailed the relevant person anyway. Either way this should net me around about £700K - not too shabby and it's about time I had a decent YP - I think I went the whole of last season without anything remotely resembling a football player.

Got a nice string of wretcheds. Waiting for the special one again but in fairness, about half my team is homegrown.

 

[MrB]

Bloody hell Toddy, 17 and he'd have been worth a mint!

 

[Matt the Shrimp]

MtS is also happy.  Query - do I keep or do I sell...?

Part of me would love to keep him and train him up - I'm going back to scorer training this season, and I can make this guy the main impetus of my yoof policy.


Or do I flog him because I desperately need cover in midfield...?  Thoughts?

 

[fredheim_holm]

coming from a man who has never played this game, keep him.

Sell him MtS - should get somewhere north of £500K - very useful. Hoping to get £1mill for mine but I'll settle for £750K. Looking forward to watching the bunfight on Monday evening.

 

[* ORM *]

Current bidding at 950K with a few minutes left. I've seen players with a bit higher TSI going for 1.5 mill so I reckon I'm on for 1.1 mill. That'll do nicely and selling a formidable midfielder tomorrow morning should enable me to invest in a second (hopefully) WC IM - and I can still make a profit on wages.

Happy days - I now think I have a serious chance of finishing top of my division.

Up to 1 mill.

Nope make that 1.020 mill  

And now 1.132 mill. Surely that's the lot !

 

[* ORM *]

Well f%&k ME with a rather large todger. Someone upped the ante to 1.5 million. They must be ****ed but I sure as hell ain't complaining. WOO and indeed HOO !

Well the U20 coach ain't gonna be happy. A Dutch guy came in with a late bid of 1.53 million adding 1.422 to the bank account. I should get north of 200K for the IM on sale in the morning.

Could still afford a titanic IM from England or a supernatural from anywhere and still break even on wages but I'm going to do some careful thinking first.

 

[* ORM *]

And to round off a pretty satisfactory few days I've just picked up a supernatural IM for an absolute bargain £1.3 million. Wages of 22K per week won't be a problem. Below average secondaries (inadequate passing and scoring) but should still be a cut above the rest of the division. Tempted to throw him into the cup match tonight.
