dont give him a keeping net as you will end up with an bowler and paying him for keeping

i never give bowlers or allrounders keeping nets

he should improve fast enough with primary and fielding nets

I've got my squad depth sorted to my satisfaction now. This is my week one yp -

 RH Batsman, LFM Bowler, superb batting form, proficient bowling form, sublime fitness.
A cautious player with competent leadership skills and abysmal experience.

Plays For:   Gorseybrigg old boys
Nationality:   England
Age:   17 Years Old
Battrick Rating:   4,038 (+128)
Wages:   £411 p/w

Stamina:   feeble   Wicket Keeping:   worthless
Batting:   worthless   Concentration:   feeble
Bowling:   mediocre   Consistency:   competent
Fielding:   worthless

He's shown a bit of talent when he's played but he's not the kind of trainee I'm looking for. I'm happy to keep him as a squad filler this season then list once the games are over to see if he can find a club or, if any of you guys want him as a trainee, let me know and I'll list for zero at a convenient time for you.

Don't get your hopes up as I've only just started dabbling at pop predictions but I reckon this guy is virtually competent bowling already!   

Hopefully Bongo will confirm that but looks good to me!   thumbs up

It took me 3 or 4 attempts to sell a med/med/med 17yo when I listed him for 0!

No, I think you got a good deal. Just saying the vendor is in cloud cuckoo land if he thinks he's getting more money...
