Probably going to sell him, as I don't really have the nets, and I could do with the cash. He's very close to Proficient, how much do you think he'll go for ? 1.5m

My YP,

Joseph Barnett (1269363)
RH Batsman, RH Spin Bowler, respectable batting form, respectable bowling form, fresh
An attacking player with competent leadership skills and abysmal experience.

Plays For: Southend United
Nationality: England
Age: 17 Years Old
Battrick Rating: 4,155
Wages: £816 p/w

Stamina: woeful(6) Wicket Keeping: competent(12)
Batting: competent(12) Concentration: woeful(5)
Bowling: abysmal Consistency: worthless
Fielding: feeble

Is it worth training him? Or buying a respectable/competent batter with competent WK for £1.2 million?

 

[Grayson]

If you're desperate for one and can afford a quality YP w/k batsman, sell this one and buy another. However, with competent skills in both it's a decent pull in my opinion, and worth training still.

I'm saying this without the knowledge of predicting how close he is to popping in both main skills though.

 

[blues_r_best]

I'm gonna sell him, when I can.

On the Transfer list.

 

[Bucks_blue]

How close is he to Comp? Where is the calculator thingy?

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

I think he is 2 weeks at most, more than likely 1 though.

Oh and my YP is up for sale and has made at least 1.5m :finger:

 

[MrB]

Crap but not surprised as I got lucky last season. Don't need a trainee so just looking for profits!

 

[Yorkshire Blue]

I got a mediocre-mediocre bowler with mediocre stamnia.

He's listed for 0 in case one of our new teams are interested.

 

[MrB]

This is the time for new teams to strike, the market will be flooded with multi-mediocre 17yo's who are more than likely reasonably close to competent in one or two of the skills.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Mine now has a bid of £2m:hilarious:

Mrs BB's YP might interest some of our newbies, only has a bid of £1,000 at the moment....

An attacking player with respectable leadership skills and abysmal experience.

Plays For: DIBS DIPPERS
Nationality: England

Battrick Rating: 4,520
Wages: £457 p/w

Stamina: mediocre Wicket Keeping: abysmal
Batting: worthless Concentration: worthless
Bowling: mediocre Consistency: respectable
Fielding: woeful

I reckon he's about 70% of the way to Comp bowling, so he should pop in about 3 or 4 weeks (more likely 3)

 

[MrB]

Nick got a handy pull who he's listed if any newbies want to bid:

Bidding at £60k already though.

 

[Grayson]

My player's listed by the way, only for around £10K so far I believe. Will be pulling a bowler Saturday, as I need one for my cup game Sunday. My 19 year old medium pacer is still only invigorated PFL...

Muse, you must be playing someone really carp in the cup, don't you have another spare bowler you could play ???

Oh, and Mrs BB's YP is now up to 21k....

 

[Grayson]

I've only 6 bowlers, and one is my all-rounder who has fresh PFL as he's still getting trained, so I dont want to play him either.

 

[BILLERICAY BLUE]

Play one of your batters as a bowler then, it really shouldn't matter. Or play the one that's invigorated at the moment, because he should be at least energetic by Sunday

 

[Grayson]

He's been invigorated since BT20, though, which is worrying. Need to boost his mediocre stamina soon. I must have a feeble bowler sitting around, somewhere.

My bowlers are really struggling to regain fitness after the BT20. I'd have thought that someone with strong or proficient fitness and on one net would had recovered more than one level in a week and a bit.

It's odd considering they bowl just 4 overs a game. All my other players are back to sublime, except my all-rounder.
