Club Rating
My club rating has just dropped +300 pts, due to me having three players retire recently and just spending close to 10mil and promoting a youngster, my overall average player rating dropped and overall club value has dropped below 80mil

That's the first time it has dropped below +6500 for about 5 or 6 seasons,, so just shows the importance of money in the bank and overall club value (just letting everyone know to learn)

I'll soon claw it back and foresight got me to secure all my +6501 staff for 5 years contracts at the end of last season

My new youth promotee, Schmiedel +80s creative midfielder got a 7 day injury on his first day training (hopefully he isn't a injury prone player?)

On the plus side, my wage bill is now 150k and my average player age is now 25, with a good bit of quality and experience amongst it

Reaching 6501 is tough, but once you've got there and got the staff the good news is you can keep hold of them even if you're under the threshold. Only problem is if the retire.

Injuries are a pain but even more so when it's someone you're training up.

I'm in a similar situation - APR has dropped from 82 to 79 due to some youth promotions, which has knocked 100 points off my rating. Not to mention the few disappointing seasons I've had which means I'm well below the 7,200 I was at one point.

Sure you'll be back in the 6501 club soon. Don't give up, skeleton!

Just another 20 seasons for me to get the 7501 staff

Maybe quicker if I play my cards correctly?,,, thanks to help from you guys in the forum and older forum posts! But the best advice I got was from you Cypher, and the money in the bank hint and overall club value advice when I first began getting into the game, and it's mechanics

Aw, now I'm blushing always happy to help!


Lemmy told me it took him ten seasons to get from 6501 to 7501...but I've definitely taken longer than that to get halfway...

Somehow we've managed to get halfway there (from 6501 to 7000) in a mere 3 seasons. I put most of it down to improved results on the field thanks to the better staff, improved APR as we cut away the last few sub-80s FA players, and a lot of stadium expansions. Getting the final 450 points is going to be brutally difficult though. I'm not quite sure where I'm going to find that many points- I've only got 4 more stadium expansions left to complete, the squad isn't going to go much higher than 81 APR, and we now have to maintain 80+ points per season just to keep stable where we are. It may simply be impossible in a league of this difficulty level.

7501 ain't easy. i managed it by having all my players highly rated and scraping a 2nd place finish. my problem now is many of those players are retiring in the next few seasons so a rebuilding job is needed
