just lost 13 million pounds in one day

so it hit monday 1st of junie 2009 after finally getting tactics right with everton i made 4th so with the prizemoney i got 17 million

so then my budget was 17 million but then after my stadium was getting expanded 13 million pounds left so im left with 4 million in the bank wtf!

its the 2nd of june game time but my transfer budget is gonna be crap and damn im annoyed lolz

can anyone explain why this has happened?

Um, it's happened because it costs money to expand the stadium.

13 million pounds this has never happened to me before with everton

and thats so stupid because im gonna be left with **** all for champions league and i need to improve my squad

Depends how big the stadium improvement is, I suppose. Look on the brightside, stadium expansion equals more revenue next season

Did you expect your stadium would be expanded for free? I don't understand why you are annoyed.

i forgot to add its only getting 7500 seats added

for 13 million?

of course i know its gonna cost money

7500 seats is a hefty expansion. £13m sounds about right to me.

in none of my other games its happened thats why im so confused and usually my expansion is 9000 thousand odd and it never costs 13 million

at first i though that the money might of gone to the everton debt which i thought was ok but it didn't so im not to pleased lolz

its goodison, to make that place any better would cost about £100b, to get an expansion at £13m is cheap

in none of my other games its happened thats why im so confused and usually my expansion is 9000 thousand odd and it never costs 13 million

Again, it could depend on the expansion. It would cost more to build a brand new 7500 seater stand, than add a 9000 seater tier (I would have thought).

yeah well i have been giving 9 milion pounds

but my balance is 5 million so that helps lolz

its just od cos this has never happened before but oh well you take the good with the bad

well if you finished 4th then all things arent that bad! Use ur 2m wisely

well im selling players getting at least 8 million for pienarr 6 mill for hibbert i hope and selling saha his wages are massive

well to get 14m for two mediorce players is good selling, and getting shut of injury prone saha is good aswel, least you got back your 13m, plus more with extra seating and a cut in wage salary

and barca just offered my 7.75 million pounds out of the blue

my couisn told me a selling technique and well it looks like its gonna work lolz im not suer if i should sell howard tho

its goodison, to make that place any better would cost about £100b

No it wouldn't.

To the op, look on the brightside 7500 extra seats plus Champs League football should whack your gates up by about 30-40% roughly. These things happen, it just means that your season goals have gone from challenge for the title to, equal last years success. You need to adapt to these kinds of circumstances.

I thought it was an "I bought Heskey and Zamora" thread

Hahaha. What a waste of money.

My stadium at Crewe was expanded by 4,500 seats for about 6 million pounds. I think your cost of expansion is reasonable.

No it wouldn't.

OMG i was joking mate

I think there should also be an option to ask the board NOT to expand your stadium and let you spend the money on players. I mean the opposite option of "expand stadium".

We are known for splashing out on Goodison

Following UEFA's choice of selecting England as the host of the European Championships in 1996, grants became available for teams who wished to apply to host games in the tournament. Everton chose to apply for a grant and opted to develop a two-tier, cantilever stand. The second tier has never been built due to rising costs and then chairman Peter Johnson's reluctance to meet the shortfall, and to this day the Stanley Park End remains a single tier stand with the smallest capacity at the ground.

Nah mate, it's up to the board to handle those type of things.

The reason to expand is usually based on the prospective revenue generated.

the 13m probably has been taken out of your account on other games as well, just so happens this time you noticed it whereas before you probably didnt...

its goodison, to make that place any better would cost about £100b, to get an expansion at £13m is cheap

Haha, classic.

13m for 7,500 seats is actually rather cheap. Arsenal and Liverpool would have LOVED to get that rate

haha im everton as well and ive ust finished my 1st season but i only finished 6th (still above liverpool tho) and i got 9000 seats for 12mil:D bargain!!!
