    how much does 5042 people bring in???

    €153,277, which equates to €30.40 for the privilege to see the mighty Accrington play. If I had my way I'd be charging €50 minimum. :pac:


    Just to add as well, the capacity of the Crown Ground is 5,057, so I'm guessing the most we can bring in is €153,733.


    Still though, I relish these kind of challenges!! :D

    Ay Caramba.

    Every post is a dagger in the heart of my plans for world domination.

    Where does all the money come from?

    I wonder do you get more fans showing up if you bring in more "stars"? At the mo my biggest star is Drogba and even with him it's 14k showing up at a capacity of 71k. The road is long ...

    I had 5mil for those deals aswel as Isla,Song and Martinez but now I will no longer have any original players left :o

    When I P/E'd some players, the ones that were left had their value increased by a couple million so this helped a lot.

    Compared to the likes of Zagreb, Brugge and Anderlecht etc my team will still be weak

    Serge Aurier

    Ross Barkley

    Alexandre Lacazette


    A spine for my Blackburn team at least.

    At best now I think a few more potential risers and that is about all I can do.

    The trouble with young talent is someone always (I'm looking at you Braga) gets there first! So for me I'm just buying young players I know will rise a bit in the hope I can increase my capital by 25% first season ...

    It's a long long road ...

    some interesting approaches being taken across this gameworld, I personally went for a mix of older established 90/91's with some 87/88/89 younger players who I expect to rise and then use them to p/e or sell to fund moves for higher rated players, Others have gone however for the buy all the youth and hope they all rise (ie playing the long game) whereas others spashed everything on capturing the 1 or 2 superstars with hope of building funds during the season to work around those superstars.

    It's tricky Tommy. I'm a mix of long game but can't resist buying one or two top players. Freaked out if I just play the long game that by the time I get to the top table all the main courses will be finished and I'll be left with just desserts :(

    Three wins from three, second in the league and making 600k a week profit. These are indeed Southend United's salad days.

    Only home game this season was watched by 35,000 fans and made me 1.1 million. Hope with the potential 74,000 that I can gain a full house with 3 more stars, coz with some of you in Europe the rest have a disadvantage.

    Hope I can bring home some Argentinian talent.

    I'm still relying on the chairman investing in my team. Didn't West Brom get a load of cash over in the Boards league to help them keep up?

    Did they?? I wouldn't have thought so. I mean, their average rating wasn't that much below the average of the league.

    In our case though, there's is every chance of us getting a cash injection at the start of next season.

    However, it is a bit of a catch 22 as, the only thing that will increase the likelihood of us getting a cash injection is if the other clubs continue to go out and buy up all the higher rated players. :pac:

    Yeah, I've gotten a few of them already. One for Cork City in the Copa league, and two for Southend United in the EB League.
