    Great stuff. Don't forget about the boostings though before you make the season. I'd say we should start the season Saturday week, maybe the following Tuesday to give the newbies a bit of time to get used to the game a bi more?

    And are we going to go with 3 divisions of 10 with 3 up and down or a 1:2 system, where the First Division is split into two groups of 10 with the winners of each section going up to the Premier along with the best runner up?

    Surely three divisions with 2 up 2 down? Maybe 2 up 2 down from 1st to 2nd and 3 up 3 down from 2nd to 3rd to allow the better managers progress a bit quicker?

    Firstly I don't think you can have different numbers of promotion from each division.

    I think with divisions of 10 two up and down is too few, three just about right I'd say.

    aye that sounds about right, try it 1st season anyway. best to give the new teams at least 10 days if they want to sign a few players and play a few friendlies.
    1st division here we come!!!!!!

    oh and what benefit did you get BB??
    Havin a weekend away is quite frankly,lettin ur team mates down!

    Yup, three up three down sounds right to me too. It will give more people something to play for, especially in the first and second divisions.
    That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.

    Help me, Arthur Murphy, you're my only hope!

    That seems like the fairest way.. Anyway it won't matter now that we have 30 teams..

    I'd prefer to go with a 3 tier system myself rather than a 1:2 system and 3 up and down is probably more suitable in a 10 team division..

    Yes, that is how it would be automatically ranked.

    As long as sligoman doesn't get his finger out, you're fine. But your team will obviously suffer loss in form and defeats, nothing unrecoverable from though.

    I think three up and three down is too much, particularly three into the top division. 3rd in the second division good enough to survive against UCD, Pants/DB/lofty? I dunno about that.

    and it's not gonna be four
    it's more likely to be 5-1.

    We can't start the season until you're in.

    I think it will have a bigger impact on the 8th best team in the top more often (ahem). Gates were second when we went up and very nearly made a third season in the top flight, beating some decent teams in our first season, while Windmill Warriors look like they could be there for a time, as second.

    Meanwhile, Burton Albion has been lurking at third for a few seasons - they'll deserve their promotion when they get it, and should stay up.

    Besides, if the likes of third placeds don't go up to shake things, it means that the status quo stays very samey - it is conceiveable to see four or five yo-yo sides carving it up, the other sides slowly becoming inactive out because of a lack of interest at having little chance to come up to the top table.
    That question was less stupid, though you asked it in a profoundly stupid way.

    You also have the issue a couple of seasons ago where the 8th team - lofty's - should never ever have gone down and they walked promotion the following season. They were waaay too strong for the division below.

    Sounds damn good to me! I think 3 up 3 down sounds like a giggle.

    It usually takes a day or two I think. Did you re-apply for the foot.ie league? If not click search when you sign in, search for league ID 43871 and you should be able to apply.
