After today's play, I'm now up to 9 games without a win. Playing away at Boca next, so we can chalk that one up as a loss. The team is back into a relegation battle after such a promising first half of the season. Will explain the Argentinian league system if anyone's interested but I doubt that's the case. Safe to say, the system doesn't favour newly-promoted teams.

Also, the team seems to be in major financial trouble. I can't tell how much of this I'm responsible for. I've paid over the odds for a few players (you could argue) and been rather generous with contract demands but I've never exceeded my budget. Anyway, the team name is always preceded by 'penniless' or 'cash-strapped' and there's speculation over which players will have to be sold to make up funds. Feel like Portsmouth.
