Still not sure how it works but I assume because of media dividends? Pogba is always in the news, KDB not so much. It's a trap that a lot of people fall into but you've hit the nail on the head there. Pogba gets so much more attention in the media when compared with KDB. The top players aren't always worth what you feel they should be. Personally i don't think Mbappe is worth £8.50 as hes always competing for performance dividends against Neymar (hes a bit of a dividends beast, both media and performance) and Mbappe's media presence isn't that large at the moment. But still this hasn't stopped his capital growth which has been impressive. It's awful looking back at some of the prices i had these guys. Had multiple hundreds of both Neymar and Mbappe at sub £2 at one point. Glad I fell into the trap of buying Mbappé.... now trading at £10.85 and still rising ! How’s everyone else getting on.... still trading or given up ?

How’s everyone else getting on.... still trading or given up ? Crazy prices everywhere on the platform now. Hope you are doing well! I haven't got the capital to invest now I've bought my house, which makes me sad. When i first invested the platform had one player above £4 (Zlatan). The trap i was referring to was "KDB is a better player than Pogba so should be worth more....". Still stand by my opinion that Mbappe isn't worthy of the price when it comes to dividend winnings... But hey the capital appreciation isn't always logical.

I sold a little while ago and got around £11 after commission. Still over £4 profit but wish I'd held out a bit longer.

Made a huge profit off Nicolo Zaniolo, the guy being likened to Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard in the Italian media.
Other than that I’m doing ok, made a 5% return, hoping some of my players can get transfers in January which will increase their value and make me some profit.

Gave up and sold all mine a couple of weeks ago. Way too much effort for too little return.
Even going to market, the commission took a fair chunk of any profit I made.
Ok for a bit of fun but you clearly need to put a load of money in to make anything worthwhile and also need a lot of patience.
I'd much rather stick a few quid on accas each week as I get a much better return.

Never bothered with this in the end. How's everyone getting on? £1000 up on investment. 5 months in and its flying. Made a lot of mistakes initially but eventually found a strategy that suited my portfolio.

Just announced a massive shirt sponsorship deal with Nottingham Forest and as a result will not be on the front of our shirts next year according to the Bristol Post. Anyone have any idea who the new sponsors might be?

Anyone have any idea who the new sponsors might be? Billy Smarts Circus. It will fit in nicely with the amount of Big Tops we have at the Mem.

Apparently it's a battle to the wire between Go Outdoors and Tents R Us!!
On a serious note no doubt it'll be another betting co none most of us will have ever heard of. At least last year's shirt is a good one to wear for a few years with FI on the front.
