The 606v2 Euro Division

First topic message reminder :

I'm looking to put together a new league over the next couple of weeks and am just this out to garner levels of interest as there are already a couple of leagues out there so I don't want to swamp the section.

Where this will be different to the existing leagues is that the sides involved are entirely made up.
You don't inherit a pre-made European side.

Instead you make your own.
You would initially start with £150m with which to buy a MINIMUM of 15 players and a MAXIMUM of 23 players.
The prices for these players are determined entirely through the transfermarkt website.

http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/

But here's where it gets interesting...the prices that are used on transfermarkt are the minimum you can bid, because other people in the league may also want the same person, so do you risk bidding the flat fee or do you bid more (increased bids have to be a minimum £500k more), the other point of note at this stage is that the maximum value player you can bid on is £15m (though you can choose to bid more than the £15m to get the player)

You then get an ADDITIONAL £50m with which to purchase upto 2 STAR players (min 1), though the maximum you can spend on 1 player is £35m.
This will then result in you having a team of a minimum of 16 players and maximum of 25 players.
You then have to name the team, give it a location where they play their home games and send this via PM to myself and Sodhat before the cut off point (to be decided).
Results of who got which player will then be announced and for those that lost out on players due to being outbid, a second chance is available to acquire players before the league starts, and third etc if needed.

Number of leagues is dependent upon how many players participate.

Foreign transfers.
As the only deciding factor for selling a player is cash then there shouldn't be wrangles over if a TP is accepted or not, if you have the cash you can buy!
TPs though will only go through once a week on a Sunday night for the week ahead.
Max transfer value for bringing in a player from foreign transfers is £15m in Season 1.
You can only make 2 foreign transfers per week.

Domestic transfers
Players can move only twice between domestic clubs per season, once they have moved twice you will have to wait until the following season to sell to another domestic club.
They can though be released or sold to an outside club.

For anyone that joins the league after it begins then the following rule applies for the first two weeks:
Transfers between 2 domestic clubs must be within 20% of each other in total monetary value. So for example if Team A wish to buy a player from Team B worth £10m then they must offer between £8-£12m in player/cash value.
Note that once 2 weeks have passed then the manager is allowed to but and sell as they please but this rule is in place to combat the usual bombardment of silly offers that litter the new managers page.

Injuries
Injuries shall be announced once per week on a Sunday night, they shall consist of 2 players, one based from the team picked for the previous weeks game and one from the entire squad.

Tactics

Each week you shall play 1 game, either league or cup (no more than one game per week though), tactics for this game shall consist of a team sheet, injuries for your team, if your team is home or away and a maximum of 15 bullet point lines worth of team instructions.
As well as the tactical instructions you are allowed 2 extra lines of a team talk to motivate your players, show your worth not just for tactics but how you build players up for the game!

Cash

Each week you receive 2m for a win, 1m for a draw, zilch for a loss.
You also receive an extra £1m per week for ensuring your tactics are handed in on time and you've voted on the results.
Each week there shall be a £1m cash bonus to the team voted best tactics.

Hopefully this is enough to entice to sign up! If you have any further questions then please do not hesitate to ask and I look forward to seeing your team sheets!

I have a team sheet in from Ollyrules but he's put in min and max bids so it needs redoing with an actual definitive price for each player.
And then its just if anyone else wishes to join up before the deadline of Thursday 5pm.

Sent you a PM Hero with the definative prices. Sorry I didn't realise before!!

Cheers Olly!

You've just made one other person rather annoyed come the revealing of the of the bidding as you've beaten them to 4 players!

If it's me prepare to be banned Olly

PM that person........please don't let it be me

I think it may be my good friend Tooze as we are both Norwich fans

can you tell me please heor who i have got 100% so can start scouting as well

Got all me players except one who I'm tied with another person for

Brahama - you have none for definate yet

That help

Bull, you've definitely got Darius Henderson, don't panic.

i never bided for Henderson

and you managed to outbid TSC for cadamarteri

grr just l;ost another player lol

Though that bid for Bobby Moore was always doomed to failure. Even though he moves faster than Rio these days.

No PM yet.

No news is good news!

Bull I can't tell you yet who you have got.
I can tell you though who you haven't got.

Marky - did you request a PM from Hero on who you didn't get? If not, that is why it's no news

I did PM Marky with his original list of rejects (that's players that were rejected, not that his players are rejects).
You didn't get any new ones Marky as yet.

That's what I mean. If I get a PM from Hero after a teamsheet has been submitted then it'll likely mean i've been trumped.

Based on some of the players i've provisionally got, I look forward to the deadline!

Right, I get you.

I'll pull my nose out

oh is that what you ment?
who we have not got?

ok yeah tell me

failed on 4 guys! not good at all

whne the players are revealed and you only git 1 star but have 25m left can you still spend it to make a full squad?

Yes you can Bull. There will be another round where you can bid for players with your remaining budget.

And you did well to only miss out on 4.

I missed out on 10.

But that £25m has to be spent on another star doesn't it.

You can't then use it on non star players

Yes the star player budget can only be spent on a 'star' player.
Otherwise it goes into your kitty for the season ahead.

£150m bid on 25 players and an extra £50m to bid on two star players? You are allowed to offer more then they are worth using transfer market website and both potential squads have to be PMed to Hero and Sodhat?

you can only bid 23 players with the 150 Viva

Anyone else living in fear of the dreaded hero message

yeah looking to find a new star player and 3 other guys

You lot already getting answers on the players you've bid on?

Can the star players be anyone?

no Viva for your star player the max the player can be valued at is 35m

Anyone up to the value of 35 Million on TM


No we just get told when we have definitely been outbid for someone

I'll try and do my team.

Viva you taking Blackburn btw?

do i still ahs allme players

AN whats the minimum TM value for a player to be classed as star player? £16m?

Cherries, you wont know until another team sheet has been submitted, and if you've asked you'll get a PM if you have lost players.

Side note, Crawley Town have sold Tyrone Barnett to Peterborough this afternoon. I'm sad but he's class, I wasn't being bitter when I said he's better than Matt Tubbs, the fact he's gone to Championship side Peterborough for a loan fee and transfer fee equalling £1.4M proves that. Staggering money for a League 2 side.

Makes a mockery of the Transfer Window though, Peterborough signing him on loan with the permanent deal to be completed at the end of the season!
