You're all not as poor in the BB as I expected. Maybe you've started to become self sustaining.

@SilentWitness do you want more in depth financials?

If it isn't any hassle to create a new save with a manager to get those in depth financials it would be good to see that breakdown. No worries if not though. :)

I'll allow any sales going forward each summer. I'll send you your squad list and gibe me names to sell, it auto gets added to your BB and TB.

And one player you want to prevent from being sold (if any - doesn't include ones already locked down that you personally signed)

Cracking, thanks Sol for that update. Finances aren't as bad as I thought on initial viewing!

Season 7 - Start

We are back! The owners have been busy hunting for players to take them to that next level. Let's see who they went with.

--------------------------------

Sheffield Utd have signed 21 year old Maxwell Basit. Basit is a Ghanian regen CB who arrives from Troyes for £67.5m, as Sheff Utd find their Scalvini partner.

FA Cup winners Sunderland kept it modest and recruited Sporting Lisbon's Tiago Parente for £35.2m. Parente is a 22 yo left-sided wing back who can also play on the right. He'll likely replace their current LB option Reinildo who is 35 and transfer listed.

Derby chucked £88.5m at City for 19 year old regen Abdulaziz Al-Houti. Al-Houti is equally adept at CB and RWB, and can even play RW and also CM at a push.

And finally Bolton signed Tino Livramento from Newcastle for £72.5m. The 26 year old RWB can play on both sides and also further up if needed.

Restart the whole experiment!!!
It would be interesting to run the experiment again from start to finish with the same changes (or as much as possible taking into account regens) and seeing how different it turns out.

Can't decide whether selling the the GK without replacing him is worse than signing Antony.

They've absolutely got Ten Hag nailed on in the game. Rinses through your budget and signs his mates.

Also here's the overview screens of your clubs so you can see captains, past positions, etc... (also a cheeky early look at your first few results and position)
