@ fletch, how much does it cost you per week running double lavish academies?

I'm currently reducing them ATM as I don't want to have any excess for the new changes next season, since its a waste. This week was 135k - both are just above 8 now.

I was paying about 190k at one stage for both to remain at steady, but that would probably be about 160k-170k now since the global average investment has dropped.

I'm guessing it's because he's a fastie compared to a fast medium but I can't see why he gets in front of Van Der Knaap ???

Imo the academy model will make academy investments easier to maintain at higher levels. I'm gonna run a youth academy now instead of running a deluxe academy

Another strategy change?

Na not really I don't think I will invest unless there is more chance of getting decent youth recruits. With my current luck it will get me nowhere. I will just be trolling the tm non-stop. Will have to look into it more before I decide what to do, if anything could possibly be a good youth academy. It works for mod-crowfan and youth academy seems to make the game that little bit more enjoyable.

Give him a week Torpy ;)

With BP winning again also it leaves us equal on top! BP still has to face the top 3 rated sides after himself though! Where as i have to play St. Rugglers on a tour week and he should be quite weak im guessing.

Alls to play for!
