Sherriff's team teach mine a OD lesson and win with 7 balls to spare!!!!

Really need those home friendlies now as my finances are dipping into the red. Not quite Pompey style yet, but lesson learnt. Get rid of big earning superstar and get in youngsters (one of my academy boys has smashed two big scores in two innings)

Close game though, which shows you can compete with the franchises.

A bit of friendly advice:

I don't care what his stats are but get rid of the guy you signed who's wages are £26k per week.  You can't sell him as you have him for 6 weeks minimum term so just fire him.  You can't afford him in your team and I doubt he's of any value anyway.

What's his stamina rating?  I suspect it'll be either worthless or abysmal, in which case he's absolutely worthless to your team.

dont worry about home friendlies you get 50% of the gate no matter what

[Ironside]

ok blonde 20/20 is nearly over what does everyone want next? i will send out all the invites when its over

shall we let the franchise teams in? or just have a seperate one for those ?


i also have 2 free dates for friendlies before end of season if anyone wants a game

Keep franchise teams and new starters in a separate league.

As for the main league, set one up and then possibly look at ways to handicap it so that everyone can compete for the title (handicap via point starts in the league, rather than any artificial rules in-game such as limiting wages or BTR).

[Ironside]

well i wont be accepting any handicap till i see what sort of a squad i have at start of season lol
been trying to get out of FC league for to long now i threw everything at it this season
so i am 265k in debt might have to sell too many players

OMG, today I was CRUSHED by Butterpaws...

352 for 2 off 50 overs beating my 31 all out in 11 overs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah, that was you who challenged me.
I'm one of the worse teams on blonde but well established on battrick
When you make friendly challenges, play away against established teams. There will be a bigger crowd so you get more money. When starting out every £ is crucial

[Sheriff Fatman]

I think I upset Ironside's team with a couple of victories recently, judging by the hammering they gave me in a friendly today.

[Ironside]
