hattrick sale of the century

I've currently got a midfielder being sold for $267,000 and there is still an hour left!!!!! This should give me some nice cash to work with.

Too late sterling.

Now many of you may ask who is Tom Sanders? Well he was truly a great young youth player that I pulled from my squad while 240,000 in debt. I thought about keeping him, and in his first game he was easily Fighting's best player. But I figured with new money I could do better. So I ask around and someone says to start the list at $300,000. I put him on at $350,000. I figured if no one buys him, I have a star. If someone does I am out of debt. Little did I know that there would be a bidding war, and at the end of the sale he went for somewhere around $610,000. Now I am still out of debt, and have replaced him.

Just thought I'd update illinifan:

Harvill FC offered 625 000 US$ for Julius Acker and thereby took the lead in the bidding.

Here were Sanders' skills when he was pulled:


Code:
Stamina: poor Goaltending: disastrous Playmaking: passable Passing: solid Winger: weak Defending: solid Scoring: poor Set Pieces: passable


That guy ought to be shot for not playing Sanders at midfield. I would bet he would be a 4 star player there.

We should acquire Sanders and stick him on a FOFC Hattrick team, then create a rule that Sanders must always be on a FOFC team! How's that for an idea?
