it sounds like a really good idea that could work really well, and im all for it, its just that since some members are obviously (and without reason, mind you) not receiving this news warmly, it might be better in future to ask for the general feedback of managers before going ahead with a large change like this

since ur new andy ill let you off the hook...
the issue of finance has come up many times, the only reason it was rejected in the past was because the model that was proposed each time was inadequate. this time there we have something that will work and it will be brought in...
as for feedback, we have a board of 7 people for a reason. we make the tough decisions and make sure we keep the game progressing, in all honesty without any serious changes the game would have died very soon...
and theres your explaination...

What sort of comments? Yes, there's no denying I was wrong to swear about an injury.. multiple times. Just really annoyign considering some teams have had like 0 injuries ever. But IMO I think thre has to be some controversial comments in the game if that's what you're talking about? What's wrong with rivlary? If that's the sort of thing you mean..

There's a difference between controversy & whinging/abuse. I don't think controversy will be looked poorly upon by sponsers, like if a club comes out and says that so-and-so team has no chance, sponsors want confident clubs and managers. However, there is a difference when a team/manager is constantly whining about injuries or poor rookies or other things and even worse when the abuse is targeted towards an association or particular managers.

I'm currently over .05 so what i say has no bearing on me as a person or a prostitute.

I vote for andrew to be voted off the island and sent back to QLD where he can sip tandoori and eat beer. I think that andrew should be 750k in injuries and still be given injuries. that would be very funny. I'm sorry for disgracing myself i really am but i'm drunk. peach out you hear me peache out

To be fair, managers have been asking for this since about Season 2 and we thought it would be too hard to run back then, even with a handful of teams.

We now have 36 teams, but I think it's manageable - so far we've had a couple of complaints, and some of that doesn't seem to be due to the actual system anyway.
