  @Ddr The two players I’ve known to die have been removed. But there must be at least 100 who are retired. Then perhaps another 200-300 who are playing in a backwater, never to return to a PB league.

  Really like this suggestion made on Twitter. Thoughts?

  Yeah absolutely agree. The suggestion of tiered IPD has been circulating on social media. It would spread the money a little more, and would certainly add some excitement. I'd just quite like all of FI's energy and efforts pumped into bringing the NASDAQ order books in, at the moment the fundamental system isn't performing well, and all these X5 inplay, deposit bonus, and whatever else comes, are plasters on a cracked bucket. I fear market instability and a largely compulsive customer base will lead to big issues soon enough.

  @Black-Wolf Its when you sell that’s important but unlike crypto trading we have dividends to soften the blow and make sitting on players through lower value periods to still remain profitable. This is simply not true. Many coins offer staking rewards which equates to interest on a traditional savings account. You can also earn interest in a more traditional sense by lending your coins to other users. Maybe you're just not aware and that is fine but crypto has evolved massively in the last couple of years and is becoming an entirely new financial system in its own right. Sorry couldn't let this pass. Not that anyone noticed anyway but dismissing crypto in favour of FI is just laughable

  What do you think/hope NASDAQ will bring and how will it help?

  @Dr-Jan-Itor FI is taking 2% off the top, 4% maybe with the new system. They want as much money in here moving about as they can get in. They are middle manning and not even touching it anymore, just taking a chunk off the top before everyone else gets theirs. Other than DIV payouts which is massivly in FI favour when you think about how many players are available, as far as I can see it. FI have a cash cow, its in their intrest to keep it alive and protect the investment and help it grow.

  @Dave-B I kind of know exactly how you feel mate, I used to see it the more shares the better, now that isnt the case. Ive been trying to come up with a sort of "structure system" for trading between diffrent levels of players to compound the money while keeping it within the "share limit". The my magic number is 1000, no more than 1000(this could change depending on how things end up down the line). 1000 is small enough I can trade out of quickly without drawing to much attention, but big enough that if I win div's, its a decent amount. Ive seen some people out there with THOUSANDS of Sancho shares at top price, like maybe 15000+. Now thats being exposed lol

  Their comission earn is far higher than their div payout, it’s not even close. They also pay two championship clubs a shed load of money to be shirt/club sponsors. Any money trouble will not be caused by div payouts. We are talking 1-3 players for media, 4 players for PB and any player 30day in-play vs 2% on every player sale....div payouts represents such a small proportion of the total trading echo system.

  I had Soria, Cucurella and Fekir. Top Mid and a Top GK award will do nicely.

  I believe the PL rule is the same as other leagues....14 fit players and you have to play, That includes U21 players as 'any player who has played 1min of PL, EFL or top division European league football should be drafted into the squad to make the numbers up'.

  is this no different than before??? you have basically set your sell price at the buy price or 1p difference and some has taken them. The problem is you cannot low your buy price...............

  @Sped said in September TOTM: @Munchie63 Surely they'll all play all across the weekend but just haven't sorted the TV games yet. For example, all Prem games will show as 3pm on the Sat but in reality they'll be stretched out across 3/4 days. La Liga usually get 3 on the Saturday. Ligue 1 have 1 Friday and 2 Saturdays games. But that means 14 of those teams in each league will only play 3 league fixtures in Oct as most will play on Sunday 1st Nov. My original post is slightly out, due to the TV games not pencilled in yet, but odds are stacked in Bundes favour as Bundes usually has 16 teams playing on Saturdays, then PL who will have 12 teams playing. Anyway, only a pointer, but worth mentioning.

  Note the usual gold/silver/bronze thresholds apply to the group stages, whereas the QF onwards are always gold days. The champions league group match days are usually silver payouts.

  @Black-Wolf No worries, I had completely missed the Filled Offers box hiding in the bottom right hand corner.

  Do we think that FI will do a promo for the Euros as well? Feels like something they'd do, obviously it'll probably depend on the market at the time.

  @Deano4dawin Although I agree that with the current implementation of order books the buy price does not reflect the true value, but sell price is certainly not the true value either... For example Sané's IS was 2.70 odd at a point this evening which shortly burst up to 3.30. By that logic you are saying his value went up an additional 60p in 30 minutes! Sell price is the value of your port if you sold up at that very second, but that is far from the true value. Time is a key factor in determining the elasticity of demand, think of any real life example.

  @Tom77 .. I quite like Sarr, I know hes a bit raw and no Mane(yet), but I think he has potential.. I am really hoping they pull off the Sancho deal though, not just for united but for FI, we need a train to board again, all this stood at the station isnt doing any of us any good..
