7+ hours and still going. I'm guessing it choked and died on something. At least USA training only took ~40 minutes (even if it did start almost a 1/2 hour late). Not complaining -- that's pretty good considering.

Quick question...my 33 and 29 year old mids have dropped form consecutively...should I sell them before they lose value (these are starters they get constant play...I've got a feeling I should sell sell sell)

I would think they'd lose ratings rather than form if it was due to aging. They're probably just on a downswing in their form. If you still need them as players, you might try holding onto them until their forms are back on the upswing. The alternative, of course, is to dump them and use the money to buy replacements with better form but that's sort of a gamble.

Thanks Daed...I was concerned...I haven't seen any skill decline...I wasn't sure if this was a tipoff or not...I'll keep them...I've got 100k in the bank and haven't spent a cent on acquisitions...paying off debt WOOHOO!

Wait a minute . . . you have 100 000 in the bank and you haven't been visiting the Transfer Wire? Are you sure you're feeling alright?

Well...I'm set to where I want to be...every purchase now just keeps me from getting a stadium...still I'll be somewhere in the low part of 100k still in debt...but it'll be nice...(of course, now that i'm out of the cup running, things will be tough)...

I hate debt. I finally have fought it down to -377k. I have a solid playmaker I will probably have to sell next week. that is unless i get my 17 year old solid keeper...but anyway, stadium upgrades can kill you.

That they can...but I think I've timed it right w/ my home games coming up, and I should only be in debt for 4 weeks, max.

Only -368k? I went -470k expanding from 7k to 21k, but I up to -212k now, and as soon as I sell one of my two passable goalies I will be able to play the transfer market once more!

Ha, -470k would have been my friend. At one point, my economy page said -560k. Now I pray for the almighty hattrick gods to lead me to greatness, but they have choosen a path for me and the Crawfish will follow it...

Youth pull should be in about 10 minutes, but it is usually really late.

Well, I was already at 15,200 capacity, so 23,000 wasn't as far off.
