feel your pain man. I joined 2 games before end of season, climbed from #11 to #9, that was all I could.
failure to promote is not tanking.
what will your budget be without any money from wining or even tickets, will you be able to aford 2 decent players on l2 prices? when is your youth coming out, in week 3 or 4 next season?
whatever you decide, enjoy your game, don't pay attention to others.
