Still waiting, it seems.

Also, congrats to the Yids on their upcoming promotion; I'm happy to stay in Serious Business another season. My constant attempts to grow three strikers has yielded consistently middling DVs (barring some amazing growth in the last match).

I can't even grow two strikers, they're both hovering around 12DV and have been since midseason. I'm actually thinking of just cutting down to one main striker and an emergency sub.

You should time it so training finishes after the CR, which will be tomorrow night after the transfer market re-opens. You should be training now.

Usually I wait until there are 4 days (96 hrs) till the transfer market opens just to be sure.

I've still never seen a doubleup. I wonder what I'm doing wrong.

8 increases, 2 bar losses this round.

You have been selected as the manager of the round 8 time/times this season. The club therefore receives 400000 econ and the money is now available in the clubs account.

At the same time I couldn't afford the youth academy (losing one star in the process), I won money from third place, best manager and best player. gently caress this poo poo!
(Also decent CR, that's good!)

Oof, only +6. This may be the last season for my team to make a run.

Also I will try and get stuff going soon. Sorry I've been so absent, super busy with life. I'm bad =(

I wouldn't mind someone to help out with some stuff to try and get people in for the next thread!

We've lost a few managers here and there from inactivity which is unfortunate.

Is there really a need to create a thread for each season? This one is 4 pages long.

Also I can help, although I don't really know what there is to do.

Hahahaha I loving give up.

I've been searching for a new youth midfielder with a captain trait on the transfer market since my youth academy wasn't spitting out what I wanted. Nothing too expensive, 17/4 with captain was my bare minimum. I found one with captain, tough, and stamina. Great! I set bit limit and win for 2.5 mil. He joins my team.

Today I get a talented player from my youth academy!

Welp, you'll have a great midfield in a few years, I guess. That guy is insane!

Edit - He'd be cooler as a forward, though

Now the question is do I sell this YA wunderkid who is worth an estimated 7 mil and keep the tough stamina captain, or cut my losses and try to re-sell the captain I just bought? Since they're both captains with the same skill level, they can't play at the same time because the one who is not selected as captain will get a performance hit. I don't really have room in my MF to train two youths at once, either.

I thought the people with that SQ only get pissed about it if the assigned captain of your team is worse than them? So you can play them both for a couple seasons assuming you have some 10+ skill guy as your actual captain and when you decide which one you like more you can sell the other one for a bunch.

Looks like I'll have to make room for this youth, then. I was misreading the leader skill and thinking too far ahead.

+14, then I sacked one of them so +13.

For helping out I'll say what I always say, build a permanent thread in Let's Play, up the mobility between divisions. I can write a new, less :words: guide, the old one is getting pretty out of date.
