It's not we do not have time or we're lazy...we just are engrossed in our studies about tactics and how to defeat all of you that are discussing...just joking guys! Personally I haven't got much time recently (you can see last season results...), but I'm glad to see that our forum is quite active. Compared to the past it's an improvement as well as NT partecipation. I'm very happy to see some new scottish managers dealing now with the NT (Abbey in this case) and possibly in the future. If you guys remember jsut a couple of season ago we were debating just between 3 or 4 users...so do not put you down and be aware that people are in the game even if they haven't got time to follow the forum every day. Good luck you all for this season. Orkney is still my favorite this year but I'll try to do better this year.

I remember you used to write long articles analysing the league like the football pundits on tv.

I was really only wondering if you guys had any ideas about how to try to improve the Scottish leagues.

Personally I have the same problem none of my friends like basketball but I spoke to the guys who I know that like games with strategical elements and stuff like that.

Unfortunately people just give up. We were up to 50+ users at one point but I guess they only want instant success (or they're just someone's 2nd account). We're now almost 10 seasons and I saw the other day a wee country like Macau (3rd season) have more users than us (population of Macau only ~500,000).

Sad...

Well the first league will be fine I believe but for the people that get relegated it will be hell, winning games on a 50 point average against bots, no motivation at all. If we would have at least 4-5 active users in each II division, that would be a good starting point

Div II1 has quite a few human teams I believe, but yes you're right, even human teams often give up and become de facto bot teams. At least they could concentrate on cup games and try to do a giant killing. It's getting quite competitive in Div I now.

Does anyone know when we will be able to use the Scouting Combine?? It was supposed to be available after the Allstar Game but I still can't use it.

Congratulations Gàidhealtachd for winning the relegation playoff series, quite a surprise to me personally, I guess the Big 8 had an edge this season over the other conference, I hope to see an even more competitive league next season, I hope a time will come soon when the bottom teams can beat the championship contenders.

Cheers! :)

I've not been logging in much and my default lineup was messed up for most of the season with players out of position. Sorted it near the end but fully expected to go down after a nearly a full season of rubbish results. Very pleasantly surprised to survive!

I still have no real understanding of tactics and absolutely no idea what a good team building strategy would be, so I firmly expect to be struggling against relegation again next season! :D

Looks like you survived as well, yeah? I guess we'll lock horns in the Big 8 next season then! :)


Oh, while I'm on the forum, does anyone know what day we get the new players from the draft?
