How would you be doing foreigns? Just value wise or with reasons?

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:11 pm

Yes Trebs I am interested

I would want Norwich, so I could finish Sir Paul's job

by sodhat Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:12 pm

How long would tactics have to be?

Weighing up time at the moment

by Marky Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:14 pm

Same situation as Sodhat, got the Euro Division, the WWA and my actual job to think about, but put me down as interested.

by Trebs Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:14 pm

Gregers, I don't know yet, cross that bridge when we come to it.

I think maybe one bid per day, all bids get answered at the end of each day. If two clubs were clubs a player might join, then it would be highest bidder wins.

There would be a word limit on tactics, I don't know. Off the top of my head, 150? Don't have to be an essay but enough to get the essence of what the gameplan is.

by Marky Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:14 pm

And i'd like Stoke

by sodhat Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:16 pm

Ok, well I'll give it a bash till it's off the ground at least.

My intention will absolutely to be to swap for West Ham though.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:17 pm

Yeah I want Norwich.

Trebs also to garner interest put something up about it in the football section/premier league section. I'm sure some guys over there would be interested

by Gregers Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:19 pm

How about removing City, United, Chelsea and Arsenal? That gives 16 teams and removes the ones that have a huge advantage

by Fernando Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:25 pm

im in

by Trebs Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:27 pm

Gregers, I'd prefer to keep the big teams in, but I don't mind. Could work well for Champions League/Europa League though. Whatever people think.

I'll add you all to the list now.

Olly, can you do me a favour and write an article in the football section saying there's a league here and to direct managers here.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:30 pm

I'm on it now Trebs thumbsup

by Gregers Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:31 pm

If the big teams were removed then it would make it more open for other teams to get up there.

Depending how its going to work I could be interested, maybe as Everton

by Trebs Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:35 pm

It'd be a random draw to get the teams, so it'd be down to managers to swap around if you want specific clubs.

by cherriesfna Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:36 pm

me in plz
ill help run it Whistle

by cherriesfna Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:37 pm

by Bull Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:38 pm

ill be in but depends on who i get Wink

Off to the glue factory.

by Trebs Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:40 pm

Cheers cherries, and the sides who miss out would replace them, championship sides would be promoted with a half decent budget to compete.

by cherriesfna Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:40 pm

so you essentialy swap teams

by cherriesfna Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:44 pm

unless i get a top team, newcastle/everton and above, im hinking of taking southampton

by Trebs Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:46 pm

Pretty much, but originally it's a random draw so it's fair.

by cherriesfna Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:47 pm

whta to be done with budgets

by Trebs Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:50 pm

They'll be pretty low to keep longevity in the league, could keep it simple and give each team 25m each?

by Gregers Thu 21 Jun 2012, 2:52 pm

I think budgets should be proportionate. Lower teams get more money etc

by CFCNick Thu 21 Jun 2012, 3:16 pm

I'm up for this. Sounds similar to a hockey league I'm in.

by Trebs Thu 21 Jun 2012, 3:17 pm

Good good

Gregers, should I put you down or not?

by cherriesfna Thu 21 Jun 2012, 3:43 pm

im intererest too, ive already stated i am :P

by GSC Thu 21 Jun 2012, 3:58 pm

Put me down

by The Special Juan Thu 21 Jun 2012, 4:01 pm

Because you are a cat, can I take that literally?

by Gregers Thu 21 Jun 2012, 4:37 pm

Put me down mate

by Trebs Thu 21 Jun 2012, 5:11 pm

TSC, you in mate?

Will add the rest of you soon

by Russell_Elmo Thu 21 Jun 2012, 5:22 pm

I'd be interested :-)

by The_Enigma Thu 21 Jun 2012, 5:40 pm

If you guys were struggling for places, I wouldn't mind CO-Running a team with somebody. If not and you fill up all the spaces then that's fine

by Trebs Thu 21 Jun 2012, 5:57 pm

Okay no worries mate, would you not want to run your own team outright?

by The Special Juan Thu 21 Jun 2012, 6:12 pm

Dunno trebs, I'll think about it.

by The_Enigma Thu 21 Jun 2012, 6:13 pm

It's more about timing atm. I'm in WWA as well you see and with everything else going on, it would just be a lot easier to co-run a team. If there's anybody else who's in the same position or just wants to run a co-team I'll happily join with them. If not, that's fine, you can give my position away if there's people wanting to join full time.

by Trebs Thu 21 Jun 2012, 6:13 pm

Oh okay, no worries mate

by The Special Juan Thu 21 Jun 2012, 6:19 pm

May be able to co-run with Enigma (if that's alright). I'll let you know for definite tonight.

by The Special Juan Thu 21 Jun 2012, 9:22 pm

Nah I can't do it. Sorry.

by David James Number One Fri 22 Jun 2012, 9:07 am

I would be interested <ok>

by Trebs Fri 22 Jun 2012, 9:32 am

Alright that's fine TSC.

David James

by Guest Fri 22 Jun 2012, 5:49 pm

trebs any places left?

by Bull Fri 22 Jun 2012, 8:57 pm

im in.

by Bull Fri 22 Jun 2012, 8:57 pm

im in.

by Trebs Fri 22 Jun 2012, 9:48 pm

CF and Brahma you can both join

by Trebs Fri 22 Jun 2012, 9:51 pm

Right, most of the admin for this league will take place on Monday, if we can get a couple more managers in place. If there's enough we could even do a 20 team Premier League.

If you have any preference for teams then please say so, if nobody else wants your team you can manage them. If multiple managers want that team then nobody gets them and it's a random draw. Hope that's clear.

Rules, draws, budgets, who does what etc. will be decided Monday

by Bull Fri 22 Jun 2012, 9:51 pm

whens the draw OTW?

by Bull Fri 22 Jun 2012, 9:52 pm

i would like Man United OTW.

if thats ok?
