Im at the end of my first season at Lewes and after having a good 2/3 of the season i had a terrible end and ended up coming second and losing in the playoffs.

I had at the start a balance of 190k and i had a profit.. now i am losing 305k and my balance is down to 85k. I am also well under my wage budget.

Suggestions to up my balance again would be good

Sell players, release players, organise friendlies for your reserves

ive never thought about arranging friendlies for the reserves. Might try that out when i get home from work

I need all the cash i can get, currently £3m in debt with burton in the premiership because of my lowly 10,000 stadium. Need the cash to upgrade/build a new one

Check your finance screen, and see where you're losing a lot of money. Then try to cut it.

Probably the easiest way to cut it is to let some of your highest-paid players leave, either sold to other teams, or on frees at the end of their contract. You can probably get cheaper players with equal skill on free transfers.

To stop losing 350k a year, that works out at about 7k a week, so you're probably losing money from other areas as well - possibly board expansions of training facilities would account for some of that.

To try and fill that gap, probably arrange a lot of home friendlies against big teams in the off-season. Try as many as you can - if you get rejected, try others. Some will accept. Hopefully some of that money would subsidise your losses.

Hope that helps! Try to cut unnecessary costs where possible.
