The re formed scottish league sounds good, what will you be changing to make it " re formed" 8-|
I'll prob do what I do every year anyway, make a world super league down to about 14 divisions, includes teams from every continent. Used to take about 6days to make but Im hoping with this new tool and the fact I have reference for the leagues on a spreadsheet to decide what teams go into which division should be a lot easier
Sounds like a good idea , 14 divisions sounds challenging though
But good luck making this anyway
cheers, I did it with FM09 and me my brother, brother in law and 3 mates had a network game. we started in the top division though me as bayern, my bro as liverpool, my bro in-law arsenal, my mates as liverpool, valencia and man utd. Took weeks to reach the january transfer window but was great fun, seeing your mate get knocked out of the global league cup as liverpool by kashima antlers of the 4th division is great fun!
