    Right lads were not looking good for getting the numbers to do it champions league style. How do ye feel about the two leagues idea with the top 4 from each going thru to the ko stages? At least that way we'll all get a good run of games regardless of where we finish. 4.5 star teams or lower are winning the poll so we'll go with the majority. If ye want to start picking teams we can start to generate the leagues and fixtures. Pick 3 teams in order of preferance(4.5 star or lower). Pm ur picks to me or one of the other administrators and we'll get motoring. Should we say next Monday to start it? That way everyone has a days grace after the new year celebrations. I'll pm ye all just incase some people have forgotten they put their name in

    Sounds good to me. I'm heading skiing from the 8th-16th of Jan (so is gillly09) Hopefully that doesn't call too many problems. We can try get a good few of our games played before we go, and the catch up asap once were back, hope thats alright. I'll pm you my teams now mate.

    Forgot to say neil.p.b is also coming skiing with us. So thats the 3 of us out of action for a week, but as I said we can get a good lot of our games played before, and then catch up with anything we miss straight after, hope thats okay.

    If it's alright, I will be replacing Just Contribute in this tournament as he will not be able to complete his fixtures?

    Good question:pac: I actually miscounted on the number we had. There are 15 of us in it. odd number what ever way we do it:( I was favouring splitting into 2 leagues with 7 in each and the top 4 from each going to the ko stages. we could do it champions league style though with 4 groups of 4(1 with 3) and the top 2 go thru. I dont mind either way thou what ever way ye want it

    I don't mind either way. If you like, I can get Just Contribute to play to make up the numbers?

    All the better if he can mate no hassle if not. I'll put all the names in a hat and draw out 2 leagues and 4 groups. Let all get back to see what way they want it and we'll work from there

    I would defiantly back the Champions league format but either way is grand.

    Just one question. Is it only the person who invites has to change the game settings to manual because I haven't played any of these boards competitions yet and would be a bit lost in setting up all the settings:( Cheers.

    No. Both players would have to change their own settings.

    Definitely Champions league style if we get the numbers. Not sure about changing your setting ive only played a couple online matches in manual. But i think if you invite someone to a manual match both players are automatically on manual. Can anyone confirm this?

    Yea you can change it so thats its set to manual. This removes the controller settings so both players are stuck on all manual and can't change it.
