Hi Argonaut

Is there a Brad Hodge (or any other Victorians) still running around WCC?

If so can I proxy manage the side?

i can tell u that Hodge is in the academy and at the start of the season he had his stats altered to reflect his real life ones, so next season he will be in wcc with some very decent stats...

also Hodge is playing for Windhoek, Cam White is also in there, he too had his stats changed to real life ones at the start of the season (which means hes still crap), hes plaing for Buenos Aires...

I dont see a reason why you couldn't manage an academy side mate... From speaking to Jason the interest in the Academy has been very ordinary to say the least.. Im sure if there are any vacancies then it wouldn't be a problem...

theres been a lot of managers, i guess in a way the academy is doing its job in that we are seeing who are best managers to come up to the main league, it just seems we have sucked it dry as far as the committed ones go...

Maybe academy managers should get their own sub-forum and we could add more features to the academy side of things?

Problem is that nobody is gonna want to put that amount of extra work into something that has minimal interest...

Its only a stop gap measure until people get into the big time anyway...

I have one suggestion, we could bring betting back, but only for Academy matches...

It wasn't cut out for the big time, but it doesn't take TOO much effort and it could generate some more interest..

It has been a bit slow of late. I have invited the remaining guys on the waiting list but have only heard back from one at this stage. Even if they all got back to me there would still be vacancies. The ones that have hung around are all very good and will be assets when they get their chance at the big time.

With respect to betting, I'm flat out having the time to spend on running the games let alone doing anything else.

That's all very well, but who's going to run it?

I haven't received an email. :ph34r:

Then again, there might be a reason to that :D

BTW which club does E Jansen my new rookie play for?

Also i would be happy to take over at Ottawa if you need managers to take control of the Academy sides to create more interest of current managers.
