Entertaining stuff! One quibble. I think five of us are relegating. The bottom team in each conference and then three through the play downs, which will be 5v7 6v6 and 7v5. Originally I think their original proposal was for six but they were forced into an embarrassing climbdown when someone pointed out how the extra promotion bonuses would cripple the economy. (You're welcome BB!)

Had to change my plans too in a sense. Adding Kuzniar last season, while it enabled me to shut teams down defensively (only Erkboy scored any points against me at all last season as I recall and it took him 7 quarters) his salary was too high to allow me to save enough money to buy another aging cripple to see me through this season.

So, I've had to attempt to revamp my roster in a hurry, while trying not to fall foul of the extra relegation spot. I think my salaries look ok atm, I'd like to add another starter so I can at least compete (I hate tanking!) but I'm almost hoping Kuzniar doesn't sell now.

Probably not finished selling but we'll have to see how successful I am finding someone to fill out my roster.

Apologies in advance to anyone I affect by fielding (or not as the case may be) trainees. Can't be helped and I don't do it with any malice.

Good luck to all, including but not exclusive to the new guys.

Oh, I voted for the Erks. Bit dirty voting for the other side but I think he's probably one transfer away from being on top.

Welcome all, another exciting season has started. Good luck and may the best team win! All the best,

Good luck one and all.

By the way, I just realised that Season 38 is the 30th consecutive EBBL season for the Tallfellas. That's a bit mad.

Last season of Innes being competitive probably. Sad but I'm so glad I got to keep him. I was wondering if anyone had any nickname suggestions for him.

Looks like the red side is a really beefed up conference this season. Good luck all!! Should be fun.

Doesn't really do him justice but 'Fries 2 Go' - to go with his long time training partner and sidekick Jezza 'Big Mac' MacAusland

Hi all, pleasure to be up in the EBBL with my mostly home trained team. Don't really have the time/energy/commitment to BB to make any sort of attempt to stay up this season though but it will be fun nonetheless. Good luck all with the season!

That's some achievement in itself.

to get to ebbl on a home trained team is very impressive.

Unfiltered !!

It's bad enough relegatin, but to be summarily labelled as unfiltered is below the belt, nay a clean blow in the jatz crackers...

It looks like everyone's running scared of me in II.3 - I'm kicking bottom big syle...

Anyway it's gonna be an easy season, whilst I concentrate on RL problems. But I'm gonna sell, build and FILTER out the dreggs...😤

Anyway, hope to be, sorry WILL be back in the EBBL next season, whence we'll be aiming to kick bottom against the Nescafe(FILTERED)Tallfellas, if we can extend our feet high enough to kick the 6'10" point guards butt (whachutalkinabout indeed, big hole in that FILTER), as for Big Mac we'll Be goin for the knees. It would have been nice to run rings round the Durham Demoters, Harlem Globetrotter style, but well just have to be content to rough up the Bethnell Green Rich Boys instead...

So apart from winning the England National Tournament this season it will be a quiet season for T20 cricketers. Unfiltered...

Hey we haven't demoted yet. I'm actually hoping to sign a player at some point this season if I can find one I like that doesn't cost 7 trillion bitcoins.
