What's the minimum level of WK you'd go for? I'd like to sell Askew to get a specialist batsman but Lamey is only just about to hit proficient.
I stopped Evelyn at Remarkable to save the wages.
 
Are you expecting to be in a promotion battle next season?

If not, you might want to play Lamey anyway, to build up his experience.
He plays anyway, what I meant was to play him at WK. Having said that I don't recall getting an XP pop in absolutely ages!

In answer to your question, I don't know. Depends if I go up this season. If I do, then no I definitely won't be in a promotion battle next season!!
 
What could I expect for Brinky ? 1m+ ? If so, would somebody have a spare 500k they could bid on him later today if needed ?.

I'm looking for a back-up bowler.
 
Let me know and I'll stick the bid in, you should get £1m for him easily.
 
Thanks mate, it depends how much Curle reaches by 3.15 this afternoon. Hopefully it will be enough that I won't have to sell Brinky as well.
 
Decided to put Blakey on the market as well. Bids of 500k on both him and Brinky would be much appreciated.

Naps - Thanks for the bid on Blakey. I might take him off later though if I get enough on Curle and Brinky.

Fielding: remarkable

Listed at 11 million. Worth it or too high?
 
Maybe 0.5m high but not bad. Good experience and F as well.

I've asked for a re-listing at 9million, see what he says. If I go to Swindon I won't be on for the deadline. Need to sell someone else too at 11million. Just have to wait and see really.
 
Some knob has bid 11 million on him. Tough decision now - I need an alternative listed tomorrow or I'll lose a huge game Friday. May just have to go for him.

Would I be able to list a proficient, get one of you's to put 800k on him and then I buy him back? I've got two home games this week, so that'll make up my debts by Saturday therefore this is a viable plan.

Reply here or give us a BT mail if you're willing to help out, and I'll list the player. Thanks :)

Clitheroe is going at 11.5mil now.

I've mailed a couple of other managers with players I need but neither have logged on in a little while, so may have to take a quality for now or a 23 y.o. medium pace exceptional offered to me by an Aussie manager. Really frustrating this is, need players listed by 8am tomorrow for me to be able to put them in for Friday's huge game.
 
I can do a bid if needed still. Negotiating a deal to replace Saj with a Sensational spinner. Saj is remarkable with quality batting so I'm figuring that as similar price, though the bowler in question only has quality consistency. Would probably then take him up a level to get the consistency up a couple of levels.

I've agreed to buy this player, the owner just wants a price named and hopefully he'll be listed tonight. I said I'll start at 9m but expect to pay more. As this will not end until Thursday I know I'll have a bit more money to play with, so a bid on any player I sell won't be needed until Weds/Thurs if that's ok B? Thanks.
