Happy ending indeed!

Good! Did you hang on to the staff adverts you were awaiting?

Yes,I have a nice new set of staff now

What sort of staff ratings can you expect from adverts once you break the 6501 mark?

Should be the 55-60 range based on my experience

Well I didn't want to tempt fate but now the deal has gone through I can say something. After my youth sale and once my club value corrects itself at the next update I should be back in the 6501+ club, even with the purchase I'll hope to be making tomorrow too. I'm actually a bit surprised and annoyed with myself that it's going to be so close-cut but I should just do it. Also I don't have any really old high rated players so my player rating should only be going one way.

The question now is how one gets an APR over 80 without buying a load of pre-trained castoffs from the big clubs. Answers on a postcard please.

Thank you.

10 points away from 6501. Just the small matter of beating the 7th ranked club in the game in the Super Cup and we'll probably get there!

Not sure what I was worrying about. I better get 6501 off the back of this result!

If not, get a cheap 90 rated player before the end of the season and enough time to get the applications in

6501 exactly. Time to get out some 1-day staff vacancies!

(I would have put them out earlier, but I was definitely not expecting to beat Bubba...)

Which rating is needed from a coach to get players to 90 rating? I guess 60+?

My 6501 level coaches have managed to get my best youth academy players up to 89, 88 and 87 overall rating. You could possibly get them to 90 with a 60-rated coach, but it would take a great quality youth. 7501 level coaches would definitely get them to the low 90s.

6504! vacancy timing will be my issue (and today's draw).

The success of my 2nd team (this team) forced me to drop my A team and start over!

it looks like you've got it!, And a couple of easier fixtures until Norfolk Enchants, congrats and for the gold cup win
