This excites me as a premium players heavy biased portfolio.
It still wont fix the bottom end problems. But maybe they will also change IPDs / bring SMDs in for a boost there.
This may well be photo shopped or just a glitch in the matrix. But I'm feeling there may be hope yet.
The numbers involved aren't from any past table or even from during a promo.
The changes to the numbers look thought out- especially the Gold.
My Messi sold straight after this leak. Gullible or not, it has got me questioning moving all funds towards the top end...or at least leaving my top end in the portfolio and off the sell queue.
What do you reckon?
That looks more than generous dividend payouts and would certainly stimulate PB players. If they brought these in and got some liquidity back to mid/bottom players all would be good again.
Has there been any more info/leaks on this?
Nothing more
I’d be happy with that if that’s what it is, the mid and lower ends will naturally rise over time.
The silver boost is massive
I like the reduction of the star as it stops the focus being on the Uber top score more cash for solid performances

No more news from fawlty towers? I logged in yesterday to see how my port was selling, I shouldn’t have bothered 😂
No but I brought this up in a twitter thread and doubters in the photo started to get a bit more interested as it doesn't match any divs table before. If it was a photo shop prank, Where's the punchline? Unless they purposely did a very sensible prediction... But it's not enough to stimulate the market off a rumour as we've now seen...
I’m sure they are thinking of something to kick start the market. I suppose a lot of their staff could be furloughed just now so maybe only dealing with essential work.
What’s everyone’s initial thoughts on the announcement? Quick look at the FI forum it looks like a 50/50 split. Nice to see a small increase in dividends and totm looks good but it’s not really helping the lower priced player liquidity.
Yeh I'm disappointed overall. Especially with no rise to bronze or ipds. That leaked one spoilt us! The intro of gks kills the top end for me... And I think that's why there's a lot of listing... FI are either clueless how changes affect the market or they know exactly what they're doing and want to shake out some commission. You can get 1000 gk shares for much cheaper than 100 Neymars. Crazy decision as it has stunted growth of the top and the small div rises won't do much to grow the market over the year... So they've put it all on the TOTM doing that. Will be interesting to see how often Kimmich, neymar etc are in it, but can only win it 12 times max. I've bought gks and listed some top end players... Will see how it goes selling those. It's a long wait til the next rise when a lot of shares will be expiring (from the 2018 boom). Two things may have gone under the radar though... The top name Gks aren't really the best ones for pb and by gks getting their own category, defenders now have less competition for pb. They must be playing it very safe with covid lingering and debts etc... They must also have plans for other ways to grow the market too. I will try and sell up quite a bit, but il stay involved for the next year, then the next div rise better be absolutely 100% or more.
I think they know exactly what they are doing dragging money away the the big hitters. Covid obviously is playing a part in this as most businesses are struggling. I’ve had some modest rises but no sales which I don’t expect to change till the full order books come in. Players are only eligible for TOTM for 30 days aren’t they?
I think it's an extra div, not a bonus for new shares... There's just a qualifying window on purchases to be in your port to count towards the next totm, so you can't buy a player 3 games in to count to the next totm, but if you bought a player 10 games ago they count etc, but all prior held shares count.
Is it? I’ve read it wrong then. It’s hard to see value in the top prices if we value on possible dividend returns.
Yeh fi have tweeted to assure everyone that you don't need to recycle holds for totm
