nah the smartest thing i ever did was sell him :D do i need to go over this again?? :P

bah who cares ranga.. when u promote u get the bonus to attendance and stuff till allstar week anyway!

I don't know but I think everyone is gonna pay players salaries on the sunday after the finals.

So I'd win the finals in 3 games (that's what I did 2 seasons ago). Can't be afraid of injuries: you play your best line up during the 2 games you wanna win and your scrubs during the one you wanna lose. It makes no difference at all!

Salaries are paid in advance if you play a competitive game during the week.

Which means if you were in auto relegation zone, your last league game was Saturday, and the following Financial update meant you paid no salaries.

After next Saturday, irrespective of whether or not a team is playing the 3rd final, everybody pays salaries as the next competitive game is the following Saturday, the first game of the new season.

To recap... if between your current and next financial update there is a competitive game, you pay salaries.

Oh and Skyhookz, I love me some Atoy.

lol Iwen you can have him :D i luv my frog and hungarian that replaced Atoy :D

Awesome so I shall win in 3 then. :)

Thanks for the info.

alrite where shall i start.

congrats ranga. i am not surprised you won. you certainly deserve to go up.

if i can think short term where i lost the series it is obviously me not being able to set the lineup vs skyhook and taking the enthusiasm hit right before the game. I can't speak for Ranga but i am assuming that it was probably 12 vs 8 in that SF.
Also tying up into that, the little bit of GS issues that caused for some of my players, which in truth probably hurt more than i thought it would.

alfama (proficient) vs Zakharov (strong)
Davila (proficient) vs Notis (strong)
Whittington (proficient) vs Addison (respectable)
Wall/Ceballos (both proficient) vs Cornelius (respectable)
Clancy (proficient) vs Terroso (strong)

and you look at the game and Addison and Cornelius were flogged with their resp vs prof GS.

but if i am gonna be honest i probably shot myself in the foot in season 16 when i spent alot of money on trying to challenge the top teams when it wasnt really worth it.

but i guess thats just the kind of manager i am. thus i wont be taking the back seat again next season. i will do what PP did and run my team into the ground to try win.

good luck in div 2 ranga. i hope you dont go into full tank as many others have done in the past. we have a reputation to keep up down here.

ps. i think brett owes skyhook an apology because i am pretty sure the financial week is monday - monday.

oh and Leeroy, i didnt quite need that bit of bragging from you about your prediction

Wow Bains, almost a ball until the last 2 lines. Commiserations on the loss but hey, I would take a holiday over a BB game any day of the week.

As far as appologies I don't owe any, I have put forth my opinion as did Skyhooks.

Not only does training finish Fridays but have a look at your schedule, first competitive game for the season starts on a Saturday, therefore we play 2 competitive games followed by a scrimmage each week rather than scrimmage in the middle.

Again, it is my opinion and until someone can tell me a better reason then that is when the money changes hands I will continue to think my way :)

well sorry dude but i read one of the comments wrong.

oh and i could do without your sympathy balls

bad luck bains.. ranga deserves it, but he is certainly spending a tonne of coin to do it! i think regardless if you were around or not ranga would have taken it.. his purchases and his planning for this was just top notch, not saying urs werent, but i think ranga did everything right.

i see your point Brett, sat is the first game of week for training mins.. maybe ur right! who knows, just do it all on 1 day i say :D

his purchases and his planning for this was just top notch, not saying urs werent, but i think ranga did everything right.

your just saying that because i didnt purchase that 160k C you wanted me to get whcih would have been a 'Hoplessly Addicted' like move!

oh and dont give up on your point of view.

why would you pay salaries for a game you have already played and one they havent played. seems more sensible to me that you you either pay them for a whole week of games they have played or as early payment for games you havent played. but this is coming from someone who thinks SB is still important

oh and Leeroy, i didnt quite need that bit of bragging from you about your prediction

Was meant to be a little joke mate, not taking anything away from your stellar season despite the devastating loss.

Keep your head up mate, I got flogged by 60 points against donuts if that makes you feel any better
