A few weeks ago, jokeru came up with the idea to achieve an unofficial BB achievement for the club.

The target was to create a roster consisting only of National Team players. This way, we could also see how much the merchandise venue rises.

We tried to find only players who are in every game for their National Team. Because of financial limits, we couldn't buy any player we wanted.

During our search, one player took it out of his NT, and our mission was a little bit harder than before. But we managed to create that roster, even with only 11 players.

And yesterday evening, our club played its first game with a roster of only NT players! Unfortunately, on the historic day, we lost! We even played against the best team of the other conference, but the bad luck for us was that Dean Nolan was injured after only 7 minutes, and this way we lost practically our offensive flow, our outside attack was decreased, as our outside defence as well.

Dean Nolan was injured because of a stomach virus. It is already the third time in his career. This time, he needs to stay between 6-12 days away from the basketball floor. We decided not to buy a better doctor to bring him back sooner, but to sell him. His salary is now too high for waiting for his return. And by achieving an entirely international roster, it is a motive more to let him go.

Regarding the merchandising money, indeed, the amount increased:

21/07/2025 Weekly Merchandise profit $ 91 547
28/07/2025 Weekly Merchandise profit $ 146 784
04/08/2025 Weekly Merchandise profit $ 153 574
11/08/2025 Weekly Merchandise profit $ 221 501
18/08/2025 Weekly Merchandise profit $ 160 983

In the moment between the new starters being there and Antero Branquinho not being sold, we achieved another target: first time in League 2, the players' salaries amounted was over 1 million $! Maybe we are the first second divisionary team who achieved that in Romania...

Going back to our actual roster, we need to see if we need to sell other players or not. I know that our fans don't like this, but we need to be careful with our financials. And we will think about new achievements that we can get.
