See, I'm on the opposite end and I definitely need all the money I can get. With all of the improvements the board has made in my game, we're running in the red every month of the season except for the first - when tv revenues are doled out. I knowingly try to offset the losses we will incur throughout the season by scheduling a ton of friendlies rather that having an operating loss at the end of the year. I'm hoping this will impact future transfer and wage budgets positively for my team.I'm also hoping it will help spur on continued stadium expansions. I know our most recent one that added ~300 seats put our team into a huge financial hole.

That said, I've only had two teams that have consistently accepted my friendly invites over the course of 7 seasons. Some teams don't want anything to do with a team of such low stature as mine, and that could be reflected to help save the hassle of having invites rejected. As my team has progressed upward, however, there have been teams that are now interested in my invites. This most recent season, for example, Celtic accepted an invite and I bagged a cool 120k. That's more than my transfer budget typically is in any given season. :shock
