       It is good & likewise, checked it first thing & kept checking it
       :D. Enjoyed this heaps more than FIFA Career Mode ::)!
       On the nutritionist, yeah - 200 gold :o. Will only be able to
       get it after spending real cash. You get a bonus 25 when you buy
       a pack. So, 150 plus that and 65 in the kitty (33 games played)
       will make it.
       Might just really splurge out and pay $6.49 for 500 gold. Call
       me Big Spender :P.
       One negative aspect that I picked up - I do think the game is
       really geared to spending lots of cash. The kid took a different
       approach - didn't upgrade players & focused upgrading his
       stadium. Has a capacity now of 16,000 however his first home
       game still got similar coins from match receipts (attendance was
       still around the 7.5k mark). Discussion around reputation might
       be low still - who knows.
       Once again, buying a pack & getting that 50% bonus there will
       probably be more meaningful.
       I have constantly upgraded players - across the board. Keeper is
       now 38 rated and have checked the market for similar (35 = 114k,
       38 = 128k, 42 = 122k, 36 = 125k). Considering to sell him off &
       buy a cheap reserve, then use the coins to focus on my other
       keeper (21 rated).
       Think this may be the option to get some more coins quicker,
       without spending. In a way I'm more keen on this approach -
       prove that I can do it without 'buying my way' in the game.

       Ah ... one last thing. Another reason not to buy anything as
       yet, is to see what rewards there are (if any) after the season
       ends.

       Yeah agreed! how far are you in now?  Im on 25 games.   Had a
       look at what was available purchase wise, and if you are going
       to buy 150 gold bars, well you are as well paying 2x the amount
       to get 500 i would say.   But no rush at moment to do anything
       like that.
       Played a game earlier and applied a few player upgrades, got to
       wait 40 mins till my next match :o  I thought the upgrades were
       able to be queued in the background.  Obviously not.   I reckon
       if i sold my keeper on the market id get a fair few bob for him,
       he's young (19/20) and ive upgraded him a lot, has some solid
       stats.   Not planning to sell him however.
       Browsing stadium upgrades and accidentally upgraded the south
       stand again for another 6k capacity, need to make sure i dont do
       that whilst hovering over the 'elite' stadiums lol.

       oops my bad, I never saw your 1st message there before posting
       mine, just saw the short one.   So yeah you already considered
       the coin thing. Let me go back and read it properly now lol.  I
       noticed you said the kid is upto 16k capacity now, thats what
       mine will be once the upgrades are done.
       whats the quick way to see your players rating?  not sure if
       thats a stupid question but i dont see it jumping out at me when
       im on the upgrade screen.   Ive only seen it when viewing the
       transfer market and it tells you rating of your best players in
       that position

       4 games to play and 4 points clear - been a struggle though.
       Guess the opposition is as inconsistent as me. Started amazingly
       well - 8 wins in a row and 36 goals scored. Then scored 35 goals
       in the next 17 matches :)
       I've also accidentally upgraded the stadium too like that :D

       Yeah - only when you look at the market. But, only showing the
       best 2 players is kinda annoying for DF and MF. For for the guys
       on the bench - you candy send them to the market, click on them
       to see their rating, the send the back again.

       Out of interest what are you say strikers names?  pretty sure it
       wont be generic but curious anyway.   My star striker is
       Proschwitz, ably supported by Saimon, but brought on my sub
       striker and has been upgraded a bit as well called Salama and
       he's been lethal too, even scored an overhead kick in one game
       :o (from a cross)    Just beat Monaco 4-0 away from home,
       pleased with that, form has gone back to excellent and top of
       the league by 1 point after 26 games :D
       Funny thing is im enjoying this game more than Football Manager
       lol.   Should sell FM14 and spend the proceeds on upgrades for
       this :D

       Nice one mate. Yeah, strangely the simplicity of it with the
       minimal involvement during the actual game, is ideal.
       Strikers are Ahid & Mertens - 25 & 24-rated players. Have done
       well but no bicycle kicks as yet. :D
       Am off to bed now - keen to hear how you go. Cheers.

       Ah cool, i thought they would be random.  Obviously utilising
       some real players names with likes of Yilmaz and Mertens etc,
       which is another nice touch.
       I think we need to convert some more forumers :)  Cuz has an
       iPhone sure he would like this (or at least i think he does)
       I will need to use the next 8 hours catching up with you, dont
       know how i let you get ahead of me in games :D
       This is my team ratings - well what i can get from transfer
       market.
       GK - Dambos, Age   Rating 31
       DF - Radovanovic Age 24, Rating 20
       DF - Bombel Age 18, Rating 20
       MF - Theuer Age 21, Rating 25
       MF - Neji Age 18, Rating 17
       FW - Proschwitz, Age 20, Rating 22
       FW - Salama, Age 20, Rating 22
       FW - Saimon, Age 21 Rating 20.
       Worth noting that some of these guys have upgrades (already paid
       for) pending so ratings will go up fairly soon.   I think they
       can maybe only do one upgrade at a time after a match so have a
       fair few queued.  I guess thats until you buy another coach or
       something.

       It's a very similar concept to new star soccer but from s
       different perspective. In nss you start out as a young
       footballer and have to progress your skills which helps you to
       move to bigger clubs, I'm currently playing in serie A.
       I'm also playing dragon age, which is a very simplistic fantasy
       game but is proving very addictive.
