    Yeah fair enough, I'm happy for people to do that.


    I still think it would be a good idea for people to do the table before the last five minutes though, because then you get to have a comparison between options, although I guess that's more relevant to the managers.

    Yeah agree, table is gun. Just don't think it'll work right at the death.

    There should definitely be a 2 minute extension after the last bid otherwise it's a contest of who can hit the buzzer closest to the end time.

    Not really. Just bid a higher amount than you were planning to if you're worried about others taking the person you want.

    It's a valid tactic too, it's called sniping

    Obviously in an ideal world we'd do it like a proper auction, but that would take forever.

    Well there wasn't a bid in the last three and a half hours of the auction being open, so that worry wasn't an issue today.

    Happy to get the manager snapped up early, for not much. Can now focus on the players.

    Well this is awkward. The time posted and the countdown timer don't match.

    I'm sure I'd had the right times, I've got no idea what's happened there.

    54 minutes left for the record.

    That site has GMT down as equalling BST. Maybe where the problem came from?

    I've got one timer that seems to work, and one that doesn't.

    I'll make sure I get one that works next time.

    Perhaps. I'm sure I had it set right though, so I've got no idea. I'll make sure I double check it next time though.

    I think I'll just use a different counter next time.

    I see no reason why not. Maybe a cap on the number of trades though.

    Fuck countdown clocks.

    I've just tried about four and none of them would work, including the one that worked last time.

    Can we cope without them?
