Gaming The SM RedCafe League

Well, yeah. That much is obvious. I'd be interested in taking them over, but I dunno if I'll have to sell everything to keep them in the black
Scouting is key. Buy potential risers and sell them after certain rise. And promote to div 1 as soon as possible to get stadium size increase.

Easier said than done. And will take time and effort, but would be very satisfying if achieved

£35M balance but at Leeds you'll have a good chance of making your squad stronger as you'll have near enough first choice on the Kiddy, Stoke and QPR player drafts.
 
Everton's Neymar is in Ronaldo mode. They'll be unstoppable this season. Beat Fulham 4:2 but the result might have been different if they had accepted the proposed deal.

Impressive Isco scores again as United beat Atletico 3:0. Everton have now won both of their last games 4:0. It is now odds on that they will make it a third when the two sides meet on Thursday.

Drafts starting with Stoke. Need to work out the values of all squads again then can get started as soon as possible. Guess we could try and see if anyone wants to take over Kiddy or QPR but looks unlikely.
Meh, stick with the squad value in OP first. Give others 1 week notice to dispute before starting the draft. Problem solved :)

That'll take longer. I'll have new values sorted tonight. All I know is Herrera's team obviously has the lowest value, so @Panther pick a player from Stoke that you can afford to get things started if you want to take part in draft. If not then say 'skip'.

So @Panther with first pick, starting just over an hour ago and ending at 6.25am on Thursday. @JB7 and @RedRazor can PM me two names and three names respectively in preferential order in advance before Herrera picks so we can get this moving a bit faster. If either (or anyone else) wants to skip, say so at any time in thread. If anyone wants to PM me a list of their picks in advance at any time, feel free to do so as I'm bottom on the draft so even if I wanted someone from Stoke, I'd be last choice anyway.

@admrf and @ubergorp can PM me picks in advance if they're around.
 
Same thing happened that always happens. Opponent gets a player sent off early, scores 2 goals from their 4 shots on target. I dominate and have way more shots, scoring nothing. Everton to win the league again.
