So you had a horrible draft too then. The chance of getting a horrible draft is waaaaay more than getting a good draft. Sometimes I question myself, is it better not to spend money on scouting and instead spend money to buy an 18 year old rookie?

Hof, These players will go bot this week:

Mahendravarman Singh (19779393) (Absolute gun!)
Sivathaiyan Chadha (19779417)
Chelvanathan Adhikari (20147068) (you missed him before yodabig :P)

Great work Rebel, I will have to look into how I mieed that last guy. All the teams that are going to go bot this week will have to be rescouted to see if they have any great draft picks as well. Saving 10 good players in the last weeks has been an awesome start but this is the best time of all when they are brand new 18 year olds.

I spend 0$ on the draft this season. I think I've understood that scouting is a waste of money...

That's really a bad news to know that no real interesting players has shown up this season. Hope that the current generations will be able to struggle against the world as long as possible. After a year as NT general manager, I can tell that in small communities like India, it is hard to motivate people to train players like we would like too.

I would have love to see a "all-time great" and some "Hall of famers" or "MVP" =P...

Well I wasn't expecting any star in the first place because my pick was 14th. But this season I'm hoping to end lower in the conference and get a good pick, so if this season's draft is pretty good, then I'm happy (but if not, i'll be pretty mad and hate the quality of the draft players :P).
As far as I can tell, the number managers in India who actually train players are probably less than 15.

Hey Hof great work and I have already got one of my buddies in Australia to get one of the Indian guys and he will be training him. Now we need to release all the ones that have already been saved and save the new lot. This will be the most important work this whole season.

It is really stupid but I read this in the forums:

April 26 (Tu): U21 Elections conclude at the end of the day (EST).

and here is our schedule.

4/25/2011 10:30:00 PM 43 Makedonija U21 -- 57 India U21 India SC

So you are actually in charge one last time. I would try to "blood" a few extra players as well as everything else. I guess we can talk about that game in the next couple of days but first our next lot of saves.

April 30 (Sa): Enthusiasm reset for U21 teams.

Good news, so we can still freely add and remove guys.

Damn I need to flight over to India once again and coach... well I will at least meet Tungi as it is on his homeport :)

Overll what a disaster. A total of two good 18 year olds between 13 teams - that is 39 guys what is the odds that they will almost all be bad?

I have take all the must save guys, and have some others. the team is full of guys to be saved :)

Great work Hof!. Even if we just play those guys and get owned in the scrimmage it is just a scrimmage. But hopefully lots of them will be for sale on Monday and we can put at least a few of the real players back on the team.
