Ok so a few of us addicts are all going to start with the same team, and see who can do best, abiding by these rules:

You can only sign players that have been scouted by you (to make the game more realistic).
You must stay with the same team, if you leave (resign/sacked) you are out of the game.
At the end of each season you must post a screenshot of the following:
  1. Team list
  2. League standings
Duration: 4 seasons
Leagues to load: English down to Blue Square North/South only!!
 
I may be up for being involved in this guys, but I dont know if I play as much as you guys do, how long to you think the 4 season will last for you lot?

Not a clue really, I'm starting a new business venture so most of my time is taken up by that, oh and dreaming of Freddy Eastwood.

But theres no rush to get it done, say a deadline of 2 months? That should be enough for all involved, and give us a chance to start another if this is succesful.

Point scoring:

Win the league = 325
Playoffs winner = 250
playoffs loser = 200

All looks good other than if we are not able to move clubs then how can we win league 1 in 4 seasons?
 
What does it mean by can only sign players scouted by you? Does this mean we can go to find players, and enter attributes etc we want in the filter, and look for players that way?

Or trawl through the unattatched players?
 
just had a thought make it more interesting, we should all start with the same team

It means you're not allowed to sign anybody that you're enable to get a scout report from. It's likely your players will remain UK based for the duration.

Im in a pub in bournemouth with fred, ironic that. You can player search for players but you must get your scout to scout them. Regarding unattached players, you can sign without scouting but they must be british or Irish. Also, if a player is British or Irish then you don't need to scout them before signing.

Anyone who states their interest before Sunday evening is in. It looks as though people want blue square south so we will take suggestions for teams from there. Ozzy and I are going for eastleigh so thats 2 votes for them. All votes to be in by Sunday at 3...pm.
