    I would be in favour of turning it on but on a condition that squad sizes can only be a certain number, so players would be spread around better. I am finding it near impossible to sign players from other managed teams.

    Squad caps can't be enforced.

    What team are you?

    All I can say is, you have to be willing to lose good players in order to get good players. If you're willing to trade your higher rated players you should have no problems buying from managed clubs

    I've sold on a few 88s and even an 89 if I remember right, in part ex for some 85s -/+, you just need to find a manager willing to do the same.

    To be honest ...

    I think it says a lot to see the shift in opinion on this topic tho ...

    vote was a walk over last time around, much closer now

    I'm just presenting the details. It is for the gameworld population as a whole to make the decisions. :D :pac:

    Besides, it's Colemania's vote that is the key vote.

    (Link to Colemania's vote change request.)

    Why is he still on the yes side then?

    should his change not make it 20-19 for the no vote?

    Just because I didn't want to make that decision on my own. If the general consensus is to let him change his vote then I'll gladly oblige by placing him in the "No" column. I'm just waiting for a final, confirmed decision. :)


    I did highlight his name though! :D

    Or the yes side need tupac to sacrafice his principles and not withdraw his vote ... :P


    that still would only make it a draw tho and I assume that would mean no change ... :(

    I've edited the table now anyway to remove Colemania from the initial list. It probably does make more sense to just add him mentally to either side.

    The vote was still open when he changed it. The poll is an easy way to count votes, or at least it's supposed to be. If someone wants to change, while the vote is open, they should be allowed...

    What ever happens with this vote ... I'm of the opinion that the following rule should apply for votes going forward:

    tbf ... we had this vote now so teams could adjust their transfer policy to suit what ever the outcome of the vote ... down side of having a vote early is not every one who voted will still be there when rules get implemented.

    I think (just my opinion) anyone (still) at a club when the vote closed has their original vote counted. If you dont want to run the risk of changing your mind or are likely to be swayed by the arguments made in the voting thread ... wait until the last day of the vote to cast a vote.

    I don't agree.

    People should be allowed change up until the vote closes, once it closes it's locked and that's that

    Did Blobby take over a team yet? I know he expressed an interest in AC Milan but that never materialised as the job went to an internal manager.

    Anyway, given that nobody had any real objection (I think) to Colemania switching allegiance, I've adjusted the table accordingly which means that Mr. Blobby's vote doesn't matter in any case!

    :D

    baz is still listed in the yes column despite no longer actually managing a team in the league, or are we letting people vote and counting once they were a manager at time of vote?

    Actually, I completely forgot about his vote tbh! Although, I had hoped that he'd return but alas, that's not to be!
