Is that the post you referred to in your previous post, the one where you stated that I had declared my intentions to promote on another forum?

I didnt realise that "Let me back in div 2.III. I dont think I'm going to be able to bluff the teams in 2.II into letting me promote", could possibly be construed as stating my intentions to promote.

Anyways what you have achieved is exposing my mischievious masterplan for promotion . (to bluff)

As I stated in the other forum you guys in divII.2 are going to be harder to bluff into rolling over than what the teams were in div II.3 a couple of seasons ago

Most of the II.3 teams sold up half their rosters and basically gave up after I brought a couple of half decent players

HA is no certainty to beat the well managed Melbourne Redbacks tomorrow night and will probably be rolled by a revenge seeking well managed Nevada Saucers on Tuesday night.

HA has no expectation of promotion this season as I'll either be playing players out of position for training purposes for most of the season or selling off my best players to enable a sustained rebuild.

I was critised by several of the ABBL coaches last season for promoting before the team was ready

Ahhhh I paid respect. Tremell is very respectful....

I didn't realise til a few weeks ago that DAS has such a small arena though so any success he has is well earned imo cause it mustn't be easy!

Dont want to sound disrespectful but I think DAS will struggle unless he/she have a rework of the roster and fix up the problems they have with their gate receipts

Yes they have had 700k net of sales recently but it must be a challenge to be losing so much (around 100K) financially each week

2 outstanding performances this week with impressive wins from SBV and HA. What a good overall balance in depth from both teams!

On another note, I wonder what the Saintstars are doing. It seems like they are not tanking and I doubt they have a good business with their rather average sized arena. However they look weak at the moment and I'm afraid they'll be left behind if they don't bring in a couple of franchise players or if they can't cope better with their game shape.

This saturday's surprise came from the Egg who whiped the floor against GT, giving them a first loss. Well, GT are still one of our top teams.

Finally, are you sure that DAS loses so much money? I haven't done the math but I see expensive seats and people tend to attend his games. Although he has already been knocked out of the cup, I think he can afford his 466k roster depending on his staff wages.

PS: Enjoy the business lessons by Ezlife! Start with 150k, buy a 35yo prick that you gonna sell for 3x more and then buy a 100k 25yo superstar that you can train (with the money from the sale of the old fart!) --> lmao

Lots of criticism I copped.

These posts are about 5 or 6 pages from the end of seasons 16 forum in the ABBL


181476.229 181476.232 181476.234 and this one from Dire 181476.237 181476.248

The purists in the ABBL gave me a bit of stick

It was constructive criticism :D

Pointing out to you that you could have done things a lot more smartly. :)

The 300k C ruined your season and if you had sold him from day one, you would be sitting on a big pile of cash right now in D2.

There was some validity in that advise which was a lesson learned.

Could of tanked the whole season rather than trying to stay up and by doing so winning 6 games and being half competitive

However there was still the jibe that I shouldnt have had my team in the ABBL because they didnt belong there and that the only reason they made it there was I stooped to a win at all costs mentality where by I brought a couple of players rather than training a team up

I think the message from the purists was that div 2 teams shouldnt aspire and use a win at all costs mentality to making it to the ABBL and by doing so, dirtying it with their presence. Instead they should wallow in div 2 indefinately until they can be deemed truly worthy
