I'm a new owner. Just got my team. Read the rules. Looked over my roster. Set my lineup and my bench. Now I have some cash. Should I spend money on anything? Wait for awhile? What to spend it on?

A lot of new users complain about the economy saying that they will go bankrupt (but they never do). So maybe you should be more conservative in the begining, wait until your teams economy gets balanced (meaning until you start winning games and getting better attendance), and then you think in what to spend your money. Good Luck!

That seems like the best bet to me. If this system is anything like Hattrick, expanding your arena is a waste of money. Perhaps in this game it will be different, but until I start seeing sellouts on a regular basis, the one thing I don't want to do is expand an arena. Improving the coach, seems like a rational first move however. Perhaps I'll look into that.

Can someone tell me about this $50,000 newbie bonus? Is that true? If it is, how long can you expect to get free cash for? When do you stop getting that bonus?

This game isn't like HT, and I believe selling out your arena is going to be far more important here. That said, you still shouldn't upgrade it for a little while, since it takes some time to build up a fan base.

You will get 50k for the first 4 weeks that you have a new team, for a total of 200k. Use it wisely. ;)

"You will get 50k for the first 4 weeks that you have a new team, for a total of 200k. Use it wisely. ;)"

Any suggestions on how to "wisely" use this money?

All I've done since joining is sack two players, and this evening I decided to get the level 5 coach on offer.

I didn't even realise us noobs got free cash until I read this and went and checked my economy page. That's pretty cool of them.

Guess I better read the rules. Again. *sigh*

I'm not sure the "newbie bonus" is in the rules. I jumped on the lvl5 coach this week, and last week I picked up the L3 doctor and L4 PR dude. I figure with the offseason I could use something to boost interest in place of winning any games.

My advice would be similar to what others have said - don't spend it right away. We're about to be in the offseason, so see how much money you're losing each week before you decide to make any big purchases. See if you nab any good players in the draft, then start a little training program.
