Super tough league. Most of my D.IV was bots. I played like 2 active teams then to this.
I think you could compete, my stadium is only 700 more seats than yours and I have dumped a lot of money into my stadium this season alone. I bought a bunch of old heads for cheap and surprising how many wins I have strung together! Got lucky in a few games when opponent was focusing on the cup.
I know there was a point in the year where I was -30k each week but I have finally made it to the positive side. League average is still -5k so I am curious how much money some people are losing each week!
