I coached football for 53 seasons, (im 50) sometimes 3 teams a year
hs, college and semi pro, i owned a team and once ran an entire stadium
lined the field, set up the snack bar, funded the cash cage, taped the players, issued the gear, warmed up the team, warmed up myself (QB) , was offensive and defensive coordinator, Played QB, and OLB,

that was more fun than this,
im on the verge of revamping a second set of strangers
and my membership is turned off again,
i cant GET to contracts long enough to set them
and the team i spent aweek on is gone,

this is too much work to PAY for
and not play an actual down,
and know that my team will be HORRIBLe for
3 more years or several hundred dollars
whichever comes first


loved all the elements
play repositioning
scouting
hired coached,
built stands
making money

but after 3 weeks i still have no players,
and i INVENT football games


i have a book to write
I just went into the Hall of Fame
maybe ill be back when i just want some paperwork

Great community and i Do respect teh supreme effort to build this
it just isnt any fun anymore,
and im a GLUTTON for preseason work
and ive done 8 worst to first transformations
IN REAL LIFE

i just dont see the point,
or the fun
maybe there is some
if someone can tell me when that kicks in

right now teh more time i spent
the More players i LOSE or things i have to do
over, when i did them correctly the first time

If you crashed your first team, just forget about it and create a new account and team. You could avoid the same mistakes, and have a smooth start. Starting over is not evil.

If you decide not to do: thanks for trying RZA, good luck!

First thing is to build the stadium all the way to the limit rather than spending on players or coaches. Then with plenty money the fun begins.

The stadium will take you around a full season, in tge meantime you can destroy bots.

Sad to see that you are going to give up... a leaving coach is always a loss for the community and the game itself. When the surrendering coach is someone with real life football know how that's more unfortunate than usual.
I think that almost anyone would give you the same advice I'm about to give you: ask for a mentor's help. It requires some effort, but when you have good suggestions and your team start to roll, you will experience the real fun of this game.

Looking at your team I can see that you have chosen management solutions that would bring you to bankrupt in real life as fast as in RZA: you are spending too much money in uneffective activities/personnel while your income are at a minimum.
600k$ spent for coaches with 25k stadium capacity are the first trend I'd suggest you to correct immediately to recover your situation.
The starting players of your team will never become really competitive no matter how long or hard you train them.
