I can't believe I ate the whole thing
Anyone still playing? Might be neat to get a friendly league going if we have enough.

In other news, threw the virtual cricket bat at the dressing room door after starting today first ahead on RR only to finish second because of run rate, as team that was second had a final round match against number 8 whereas I played number 4. Sigh.

I do. Both my sides are Top 200 in the world, alas my affiliate's still in Div 3 as I switched countries not that long ago and there were a couple of other sides just as good in that division (I also let go quite a few of my better players in order to get more cash in, and now have a significant age problem coming up)

Cancer sucks man. FTP was great to me as well, so many hours of entertainment just from following my matches and stuff. I think I stuck with it for a good 6-7 years or something crazy.

RIP Ashario.

When you consider he had a young family too....I don't know what to say. Just horrible news all round.

Some interesting changes in the pipeline for the new season that starts end of this month, if anyone is interested in returning to the game.

I've somehow hung on to my spot in Div 3 of all formats despite having a young, inexperienced squad and doing jack all. Working on a bit of a long-term development plan now. Loads of cash in reserve, like 6 million, so gonna invest in my academies and try to work the home-grown approach for a bit. See where that takes me.

Robot Koalas CC if anyone is interested in a friendly.

Yeah I ran out of money trying to effectively run a good Senior and Youth team, so am basically going for the full farm approach for my affiliate while ignoring Youth progression for my Main.

My sides = Inner Western Wombats/Southern Squirrels.

I just got bored of developing all of these great players and then getting ****ed when they are all taken away for internationals.
