Thanks to both of you for the help.

@vrabbit: I'm trying something along these lines, but I haven't really been selling. I've tried to focus on free transfers for players between ages of 23-28 and whose wages are below €2,000. That's gotten me through the bottom two rungs of English football. I've been looking to sell a few guys who I don't need anymore, but have been hesitant to sell key contributors if they don't ask to leave. I may have to re-visit that. But I'm definitely invested in the club and want to hang around as long as there is promise of better funding in the future, which brings me to...

@doyce7: This is very interesting. Some more evidence that maybe I should start to sell some players. It also looks like I should hang around the FLC a little longer. I'm only my first year (year three, overall) but I've just been pummeling teams the first 10 games or so. Going to bet it's the pre-contract players growing when the game advances seasons. There are a lot of guys performing at higher levels than I pay. Might need to bump up the difficulty, too.

I have a small youth academy going, but I haven't really been able to send scouts out anymore because a lot of my budget has gone to solidifying the squad and hiring better scouts. That said, I have 5 middle of the road prospects and another 2 that I'm really stoked about. So I'll see how they develop and make a decision then.

Thanks again!
