Training Advice

Stock has now gone above £7m, not sure whether to list another strong batsman to try and get him or just settle for Green instead.

Decisions decisions!
 
Looks like Green is going to be out of your range as well.

BTW Mrs BB is bidding as well, she has a similar war-chest to you.

6 mil doesn't buy much these days.

I was just thinking that!

My opponent on Friday is bidding for Harris, the other one that Womble listed. Sadly enough I turned down a lunch to sit here and wait to bid!
 
That is tragic.

If the money is burning a hole in your pocket I suggest you buy Stone (my RF respectable-proficient) from me. I've also a mediocre-mediocre batsman for sale.

I have been watching the quality plus market for some time and saw it was getting harder and harder to buy players for under £5m, which is why I signed McIntosh. My main worry is that he needs 3 nets, which means I have only one young player coming through. The others are all first team players.
 
The strong stamina is a plus for me. You can buy a competent and spend a season training his stamina up to a decent level.

I wonder what tangible value can be placed on one net? Difficult to quantify. If I get Green I'll just be putting him on a bowling net then I can free up fielding for Curtis, Botham and Sutherland.
 
Anyone fancy bidding a quick million on Maymann for me if I list him? :D

I'm sure he'd go for more than that, strong/competent batsman.
 
No, do mine! I offer more advice! I now want Stock again.

(I'm not holding out much hope) :(
 
Well that's that. Amazingly Green is going for more than Harris who is much better and almost as much as Stock who's even better.

I'm going to get spanked tomorrow! :D
