League Reboot

by sodhat Tue Jul 16, 2013 9:25 am

First topic message reminder :

Please register your interest should we press ahead and reboot the league.

This is also a good chance to air grievances with current rules and suggest new ones, as well as any innovations you have to make it better.

We may entirely ignore all suggestions, such is our wont.

Cherries
Gregers
Olly
Azzy
ZZZ
Nando (probably)
Afro
Hero
GSC
Trebs
sodhat

Need another 1 (or 3 or 5 or 7....)

Team Selection

Every team valued at 100m or below is available

Everybody bids for their preferred team

Maximum bid is 120m, Minimum 70m. Bids must also be at least TM value of the club

Any money left over from the 120m budget goes into your budget for a player draft

Results
Same as before

Voting
Same as before, however 1 good/bad point for each team required

TP Limit
Draft = no TP limit
Start of the league = £10m limit
Each week = £1m increase
End of season 1 = £19m TP limit (based on 10 teams, no cup weeks as we'd do that at the end)
End of season 2 = £28m

You could make it £12m > £21m > £30m if preferred?

This will change slightly depending on number of teams.

Injuries
AGREED AS 4 INJURIES PER WEEK

Do we want any form of transfers healing injuries?
NO

Whether to ditch U21 and nationality restrictions
AGREED TO DITCH BOTH

League structure - single league or not?

NO CASH LOANS ALLOWED, ALL TRANSFERS MUST BE PAID UP FRONT

End of season loans when you have nothing to play for - how to stop these

We'll need one of those green-name sorts to assist us and move the sub-sections about a bit.

We're going to need a name for our league too.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Wed Jul 24, 2013 10:55 am

Can someone please confirm how man draft rounds we are having please.
Also, is there no limit to amount of players I can bid on?

by **Afro** Wed Jul 24, 2013 10:56 am

We are still gauging opinion, but atm the consensus seems to be 2 rounds.

And you can bid on as many as you like as long as you have the cash and you are bidding the minimums of £500k and TM value

So no value = You have to bid 500k minimum.
TM Value = You have to bid the TM Value minimum.

Correct?

Without giving anything away, that's how i've done it.

Trebs has one I was all ready to bid on in the draft until I realised he had Lille.

Pretty much. Absolute minimum for anyone is £500k so that's for anyone with no value or less than £500k value.

For players whose TM value is over £500k, their TM value is the minimum

Let's just do that. It is virtually the same value and saves calculating

Minimum of £500k regardless, or if he has a TM value you have to pay that.

NO!

You have to pay the TM value as a minimum regardless of club affiliation.

No.

The minimum bid is either TM value or £500k, which ever is highest. For all players.

Hero - even Efan Ekoku scored 4 against Everton!

by sodhat Wed Jul 24, 2013 11:54 am

Is his son the new Efan Ekoku?

He was pretty good on Championship Manager.

by **Afro** Wed Jul 24, 2013 12:00 pm

He ripped Mark Ward and Gary Ablett to shreds that day

by sodhat Wed Jul 24, 2013 12:01 pm

We once let Kevin Campbell score four against us at Goodison Park. We actually finished 5th that year, but somehow let Campbell destroy us.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Wed Jul 24, 2013 12:03 pm

any monies left from my drafts do they transfer over to my kitty?

by **Afro** Wed Jul 24, 2013 12:06 pm

Was that the 6-0. I thought KC only got 3 though. I'm pretty sure it was Scott Gemmil who did for you that day Laugh

by GSC Wed Jul 24, 2013 12:06 pm

Any people bid on the same player Afro?

by **Afro** Wed Jul 24, 2013 12:08 pm

Yep to both questions above

Good question GSC

by Guest Wed Jul 24, 2013 12:10 pm

Can we do releases before the draft? Otherwise our teams will all have 30+ players in them.

by **Afro** Wed Jul 24, 2013 12:13 pm

Releases will be after drafts.

Season won't start straight away and you will have until tactics submission (i.e. end of Thursday) on the first week's games to get within the squad limits

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Wed Jul 24, 2013 12:17 pm

Efan!!!!
