I believe admins just should release that kind of manager and give a new quick selection in this case. :/ (and make this manager unavailable for elections for 2-3 cycles)

I actually quite like that idea for international sides. Award the runner-up with the reigns if three games are forfeited or something..

We managed to hit the threshold for removal...

We actually got a game 3 as the Andorra coach selected a squad at the last minute. Thankfully I was alert and noticed this on my lunch break to adjust the team selection.

England dominated the game from start to finish as expected. The England offence was on fire throughout, shooting 62.% from the field and 60% 3FG. Apparently the Andorran squad didn’t want to play defence as not only did they allow England to shoot such high field goal percentage, they only gave up 2 free throw attempts, both of which were missed by SG Amarsari Singh. The free throw misses didn’t make any difference as England ran out winners 117-68, ironically the same points difference as if Andorra forfeited as previous games.

PG Jonathan Hendriks top scored with 21 points on 10-15 shooting and added 4 assists. SF Kirby Yarwood and SG Amarsari Singh hit 3 3 pointers each on their way to 19 and 17 points respectively. 20 year old Wes Fairclough came off the bench to score 18 points in 18 minutes on his U21 debut. PF Francis Padilla was the top rebounder with 12 to go with his 7 points. The team shared out the assists with 4 players getting 3 assists each with Hendriks and Yarwood each with 4 assists.

England move to 3-0 for the season, tied with Italy as the only unbeaten teams in the group. England next face Malta who are yet to win a game.

Fairclough did very well coming off the bench but MVP has to be the high scorer Hendricks for me.

You lying its called progresion :D look squad helped - not (-50) but (-49) :D

4 wins from 4! Another strong win against a weak team. England shot 50.5% from the field and won the rebounding battle 65-35 in a comfortable win. Not as efficient as the previous game but shooting over 50% is still really good, especially holding Marla to only 34.1% shooting. Too many turnovers and fouls for my liking but a 44 point win with less effort is good enough for me.

Francis Padilla had a monster 25 point, 12 rebound performance in only 24 mins. The bench also impressed as Kevin Aronberg, Fod Pongracz and Sivvappalam Chandra had 18, 17 and 13 point respectively.

Now we move on to 3 huge games as the top 3 teams in the group face each other over the last 3 games. Romania up next for us which will be an interesting challenge followed by Belgium. If we win both of those we will guarantee qualification before Italy which is what I’m aiming for.

Georgia have been really unlucky with their schedule. They've faced the current top 4 teams in the group which if they were trying to compete to qualify is always difficult to build enthusiasm. Other than a big loss to Italy, they've had close games so have been unlucky in that sense as well.

The last 3 games in our group are tough, we play both teams at 3-1 and Italy at 4-0. We win 3 games we win the group, win 2 of those games and we qualify, win 1 and it comes down to PD, win 0 and that's season over. Still a lot to play for.

Really appreciate the updates and the regulary summary mate, thank you!
