Poppy pop

The General

A couple here:

Tapp pops to proficient fielding and is due imminent batt and bowl pops.

Browne pop's to superb batting!

Much more due in the last 3 weeks in preparation for Level 3 ( he says! )

Just the two but handy enough. Going to be a slow few weeks now, all 4 trainees have popped in primary & secondary in the last four weeks.

RH Batsman, RM Bowler, superb batting form, superb bowling form, energetic
An attacking player with woeful leadership skills and feeble experience.
Stamina: respectable Wicket Keeping: worthless
Batting: wonderful Concentration: quality
Bowling: worthless Consistency: feeble
Fielding: strong
 
By my reckoning he'll pop to masterful in the last week of Season 10. His concentration will depend on how much fielding training I give him. If his fielding stopped today he'd be around Sensational.

Should hopefully solve my batting issues. Though my ratings gaisnt Nick suggest we're getting there already:

ShrimperZone CC Whos your Daddy
Top Order: remarkable quality
Middle Order: proficient proficient
Lower Order: woeful abysmal
Seam Bowling: sensational remarkable
Spin Bowling: exceptional proficient
Fielding: mediocre feeble

bugger all for me, Horsey's batting pop seems to be taking an awfully long time.
How old is he, and how long has it taken so far.

Also it pays to set your nets every week, even if they haven't changed, as there have been reports if the odd week going missing.
 
Can you tell him to reduce the interest payments and increase ground expansion costs while you're there please?

I might mention the interest payments thing, but increasing ground expansion costs can wait until I've increased my capacity.

BTW he said he will probably be coming down to Roots Hall for the Southend v Brighton game later on this season and I told him to pop into the Spread.
 
Bowling pop for Rennie and a concentration pop for Parr. All primaries due another pop by the season's close.
 
Nice dubble bubble for me - Hot on the heels of my first ever superb last week too. I might need him for Friday OD game though - look at PFL and form :(

I'd be inclined to sell Burke, as his Secondary is always going to be too far behind his Primary for him to be effective. Someone could well be seduced by the Strong Primary and give you £1m for him.

A 28 yo Strong / Woeful with Comp Stamina has a bid of £875,000 on him, so that gives you a bit of a guide.
