Asunto: New Prospects

I will get stats on that in the future. I have them for soccer and rates are higher than hb but lower than hockey (rate of good pulls is prop to number of players required).

Wow - your pulls are unbelievable:

Mitch Sheron 16 78 6/6 28 297
Mark Brightwell 15 77 5/6 66 293
Lee Brodie 15 44 5/6 108 252
Louis Grazioli 16 71 5/6 18 245
Mohammed Russell 16 84 6/6 16 243
Lee Redfearn 16 70 5/6 6 241
Justin Woods 15 57 6/6 41 239
Graham Whitehead 16 76 5/6 36 229
Billy Viveash 15 51 5/6 72 226

Cool - looking forward to seeing your research

I will be taking my pull tomorrow after my SA is upgraded. Fingers crossed he's a stud!

Yea I know. Didn't want to big it up too much but I know i've been lucky. Focused on SA from the very start but didn't expect it to give me so many top players!
Tempted to sell a couple so I can get a good goalie in as that's what's costing me atm.

My 3 best players are all GKs... they all have 76AQ+. They don't make as much of difference as you'd expect.

I think most of us focussed on SA from the beginning. Being in i.1 probably helped you finance level 7 & 8 before some of us

I started in the 2nd tier so i didn't have the advantage of slightly better players and slightly more money that the I.1 teams got at the start BUT I then got a shedload of prize money for promoting which I used along with a loan for a 3 tiered multi functional stand. So there are areas that suffered in season 1 because everything was focused on SA, but every team will have had similar problems.
I'm still amazed so many teams only have 1600 capacity arenas. Mine is 1750 with another 1k building, so even with a sector out of action til december i'm still making more money per home game than my whole division.

@canucks - what are their average save percentages? I can guarantee they'll be better than my current goalies. I know handball goalies dont make as much difference as in hockey for example, but there have been games where i'm left thinking "if only I had a decent goalie, I'd have won". Because given the strength of my team, I should only really lose if my opponent out does me tactically (or their goalie has a blinder, and mine doesn't!)

Varies. One won II.3 last year. The guy I play most this year is 2nd with 40%.

You can afford 1000 place cose you have good sponsors, but lot of pleyers, special in lower divisions do not have 38 milions for that, that why they build academy and play in hope, that thay will get good pleyers, in my position, all my pleyers i sell to get more money to increase my infrastructure and if i will have so much money like you i build stadium, but till i can build infra with 10-20 milions successfully i do not invest in stadium and yes i understand that stadium it is good investision.

Interesting. Both mine are averaging 30% but they've both had a few shockers in the teens!! (games that is :p)

What is your weekly sponsorship money like?

I've not had good sponsors to afford the stadium mate. I could only afford it because I won the league and play-offs and got a lot of promotion money. Even then I had to take out a loan as well to be able to afford it.

I get 5 million a week (media and general together).
Inter Lincoln (I.1 champions last season) get 7.9 million a week just from general sponsor. One of the mid table teams gets 5 million general too so even though I was the 2nd best british team in the rankings when I got promoted, I got less sponsor money because I was in a lower division

That is great that you are building it. I glad for you and if academy give me more one fantastic pleyer then i build somethin like you in yours stadium.
