registered a huge win after the bowlers gave up 307, the batsmen made it look like a small total, losing just 2 wickets and getting there w/ 3 overs to spare... MOTM was Owens w/ 165 from 134 balls... he's really been special this season 747 runs already :eek:
he helped the team to its best batting rating ever w/ remarkable.

nice batting.
i'm going to be expanding my ground. might start this week, but it'll put me 20K or so in the red until the home match is played and my ground sells out and then I should be up about 50K.
going to expand to 22,500 because it is the right ratio for my 900 member seats and i'm selling out all my seats, except members, which are only about 30-50 short of a sell out each match.

well, you should always over-expand abit.. no point expanding and then having to expand again in a short while... UNLESS you don't have the money... which is why u and me are in the same boat (i know i know, u and i).
I'll be expanding to over 25K I'm not sure at the exact figure as I've misplaced that, but its costing me 370K and I've been selling out quite a bit so now that I've got the cash I'm splashing.
how many members in your member club? mine is up to 1449. I'm wondering if the expansion rules might be easier than we thought... I wonder if you put your member seats around the size of your member club and then just use the right proportions from there on out, if you'll have the right sized stadium?

i've got 1283 members. went through a big dry spell last season in the league and got 0 members for about a month.
i'm selling out my 14,800ish ground, so i think 22,500 to 25,000 would be a good idea, not sure if i'll go all the way to 25k as funds are tight. if my youth pull can sell for the 200k i listed him for (a big reach, but he's 17 and a competent/feeble batsmen with mediocore stamina, and competent fielding), i'm going to go for 25k and name a stand after the player.

cool... I think that expansion is about right, it might actually be a little too big, but its better to make that mistake than to under-expand.
