Youth Pulls

[MrB]

We shall see, would like to get £1m but reckon it will be £500k in which case I will buy him back and double net to strong.

Lol, last bid was £500k so bumped it to £800k to keep him. Now on 4 nets and will see where he is at the strong pop. May train long term, don't need to replace anyone for a couple of seasons so can be flexible.

£500k! Much worse players going for 7 figures. This game really does suck sometimes.

 

[BrettieAngell]

****ing hell mate, did you buy him back?

 

[MrB]

Forgot, though to be honest if I bought him back I'd have to commit to nets I don't have to make it worthwhile selling him after 6 weeks. Such is life, got lucky getting two great YPs but in previous seasons I would have made £3m+!

 

[BrettieAngell]

Fair enough, yeah shocked at how low prices are now tbh I was hoping for a good YP as I had some spare nets. If I get another one then the cash will be a bonus, I guess that is being greedy though well happy with a double respectable pull.

[MrB]

Given recent prices I'd be tempted to train to proficient then sell.

 

[BrettieAngell]

I don't have any spare nets at the moment so will just have to keep my fingers crossed and see how much I get for him.

If someone could chuck a few bids on my guy to get things moving a bit would be much appreciated, currently on 100k!

 

[MrB]

I thought I'd try and get some bidding on him for you but ended up getting him myself. Will train to strong then sell again.

 

[BrettieAngell]

Thanks mate appreciate you trying, the market is so dead!

 

[MrB]

Yep, picked up an 18yo with strong batting and strong stamina for £500k for the franchise. Concentration was low but I'm more concerned with stamina these days. Was a nice bonus when I saw his nets for last week, he only popped in stamina:

Date: 16/02/2013
Batting: 4 nets
Fielding: 2 nets
Keeping: 2 nets
Stamina: 2 nets

 

[BrettieAngell]

Blimey, that is a bargain!

 

[MrB]

Don't feel so bad about my prices now, saw an £1,150 wage res/com with mediocre stamina sell for £79k!
