Tsk tsk, trying to rip off newbies. Those players are crap!
A word of advice: A batsman is near useless without any stamina and concentration

Those players are not crap, I was offering them for a few thousand, which is what they're worth.

[FreddieFan]

I wasn't ripping of newbies and they weren't crap players, therefore I am fine anyway.

Official Rules For Battrick League 2006

These rules are to be followed at all times and failure to do so could result in your team being disqualified!

4. Points will be allocated as 3 for a win, 0 for a win and 1 if the rare occurance of a tie happens.

I have a problem with this. My question is - "Huh?", followed up by - "What if we lose?"
Hope you can clear it

Maybe to you and the newbies they aren't crap, but my backups are better batsmen! I mean, he is useless without any stamina and/or concentration. He isn't a 17-20 YO either, so it would take quite a while to train him. I'd advise the others to buy batsmen based on their Stamina, Concentration, then Batting. A feeble with decent secondaries would do a lot bettter, as concentration helps them to either attack or defend as the situation requires, and the stamina help them bat a long time, regardless if they are talented or not.
