Looking at your picture I guess you think it is better to give than recieve.

Sid had the courage and the accounting knowledge to drive his team within a few hours of bankruptcy and then won the championship which is something we all dream of and I envy him for his success. Only problem was that his team was in such a financial mess that he had no chance (short of some Koopasaurus sort of luck) of staying up. Is he in a stronger or weaker position than he was at this point two seasons ago? Unclear.


Yeah especially when it's a bloody big moose dishing out the hurt! My avatar gives no indication of my personal preference, I can assure you of that! :-P

A lot of teams only pop in to the ABBL for a short visit. Some of them find their way back, others don't. He's probably learned that if he has any intention of staying there it's going to take a different approach. At least he can say he's had a look though. I too am jealous of this!

Really I should have the picture instead of you. I might be struggling to dish it out at the moment though.

I nearly became the first Manager in BB history to get his team both promoted and bankrupted in the same day.

Come on guys come over to the forum on II.2 and add abit of your insight.

(Or failing that jump on the Transfer List and bid on some players that are for sale around 11.45 to 11.50 tonight)

To answer your question, ifI hadnt of made the move Id have been stuck in a rut in div 2 for another 3 or 4 seasons.

I did gain a lot of experience and whilst I didnt save a lot of cash, I did acquire some good players

My next 2 games are big ones. Chelsea away then Hags at home. Be interesting to see the standings after Saturday.

Yeah two losses for you and two wins for me could see that battle for 2nd heating right up. Though I've got a couple of tough ones myself and I think you will finish ahead. Your current team will be a pretty fair battle for the conference title against Hag.

@ Moosa - Yeah i've thought that before about my avatar. Would have been a good one for you but then your avatar is used across a number of different management sims. Your's is a bit of a trademark while mine is really just for BB.

What an epic game Aussie, I win by a missed free throw! Despite being at home and having very enthusiasm. Scary news, I knew you were very strong, but you are even stronger than I feared.

That was a crucial loss too. Had Aussie put that in the bank and followed up with a win against Hags at home next game, he would have stitched up top spot. I'm tipping Aussie to win this top of the table clash and it's going to make for a very, very close battle for the Great 8 Conference Championship. Honestly can't see Aussie losing any games after Hag and it's likely El Hag could do the same. That means if Aussie does win next game, it's going to come down to PD for top spot at the season's end. Let the battle begin! :-D

What about possibly the upset of the season with moosa's beating Hag?!! Could be crucial in the run home. Going to be brutal on our side for survival, with some making their moves in the transfer market already. Enthusiasm and pd will be pivotal.

Good luck all!
