happy days my 1st ever superb primary today  not too shabby for a 19yo. he can keep his batting net I feel. just now waiting for my 18yo prof/prof to start popping.. he went to feeble stamina today, this time next season he'll be on respectable stamina,and hopefully a damn awesome player!! |

19yo Superb is where you want them to be, nice player!
I had 2 stamina pops on my bowlers and a consistency pop on my 17yo bowler, so not a bad week all in all!

he's only getting 2 nets too, 1 batting and 1 keeping, so he can play all the time too ( with the occasional FC game off). my 18yo is my project tho Once I get his stamina up ( by end of next season) he'll be my best player by far. |

Didn't get one pop today. Only positive was my 17 year old all rounders rating went up by another k. Hoping he'll make a decent sale by end of season.
Re: youth acadamy, I haven't done anything with mine but is rated feeble. It will cost me £30k per improvement, should I start putting some money into it?

Unless you're flush with money don't bother. Get as much interest as you can, and once you have £1.6m in the bank, and make money then think about it.

won my FC game in 2 days and now up to 3rd ( all be it for now).. winnable OD game on Friday vs 8th too.. might even get the morale up to over the moon.
Looking to sell my 20yo soon to get some cash.

My FC game was a bit odd, they hit 328 and I thought that was a good score. My top order crumbled, as expected, but Disley dug in for a gritty 156, Clarke - speciality so far "being rubbish" - hit a run a ball 97 (  ) and Glazier chipped in with a quick fire 67 to take me to 358 ( ). They had chance to get to 109/1 overnight, but the weather tomorrow is bowler friendly so who knows what will happen! |

Yours odd, mines a belter. I can't do feck all in fc but is home game this week. Have 1st v 2nd OD game Friday so have rested all my decent players.
Put the ones that are playing on very defensive, to make sure I get 2 days outta it.
Anyway bat 1st and all out for 100+. Oppo is currently 1000+ and still not declared. 1 of his players got over 400. I might get a draw outta this one...lololol

Bowled them out in the second innings for 280, giving them a lead of exactly 250.
Have 45 overs to chase it down (not likely), but with it being a bowlers pitch I could easily lose.
Hopefully I can bat out for a draw though - don't want to piss off the fans before tomorrow's home game!

1st pop to quality ( and next week he'll be a 30k rated player)
How long does an 18yo take to pop on 2 primary nets? How about 3?
Tough week this week for my lot.
FC game at home vs a team that beat me by an innings 1st time round. Have put a stronger side out to get maximum possible points. Then OD game away vs a super BOT who handed my lot their only OD loss this season. Full strength side out for this one to try n sneak the win.

I'm playing 3rd in my FC match. Most of my team are knackered and I have a hard OD game on Friday too.
I think I'll drop some points somewhere this week!
