Continue to think about this. I really like the idea of a second team with restrictions.

Being from a small country but with a number of active users that makes the first league mostly interesting, I do think it would be strange if someone from half way around the world, who has never lived in or been to Japan would become and be labeled as the Japan Champion. I think the Japan Champion should be from Japan.

On the other hand, I don't like the idea of a separate universe of play. I think the second teams should be in the same universe with the same player pools and with the opportunity to get to B3.

So, I think the only solution is to create some new "Seconds" countries for the second teams. I'd be happy to play in an "Asia Seconds" league or however else you want to organize the teams and second countries.

I agree with Iguanadon Joe. My first thought was the ability to create a homegrown team as well.

i agree with you. i know all the mistakes i made with my team regarding arena expansion and training my draftees and now have a better understanding of the game. i know that if i were in a smaller country i would welcome the competition. last season in division III in Canada i played against 9 bot teams and hated it. i've been a supporter almost from day one. i've played other sports management games and in my opinion this game is the best of them. thanks for your time.

I say no. I do not think it should be a supporter feature. I think every one should get a chance. Especially if the secondary team would have a chance to compete in leagues. That would give the supporters extra chances to win, which means promoting, which would mean they get more money to buy players. I think it is kind of unfair. And this would be a way to transfer money. So I say no.


Yep.. Agreed. I think they should implement a "college" system.. there is a post in the suggestion forums that explains this more...

I did read what he wrote- He also said he can try any new strategies he wants without blowing up his team, which in my opinion is a minor advantage. I didnt mean to sound so aggressive when i said- this is why.. My bad. I still think its a good idea dont get me wrong.

I think it would be cool if they made a youth team. Like all players had to be U21. So basically like the national teams, except now everyone would have one. And all those youth teams would compete in a seperate U21 league. Then, when the players are good enough, or 22, or if you need them, then you could bring them up to your actual team. I don't know if I'm crazy, but I personally think that would be cool.

I know its not a favorite idea for the game overlords because it would likely mean creating a whole bunch of new code. However, it does not have to be complicated:

Allow for one inter-squad scrimmage per week.

Supporters already essentially get that with the Private League. It would create more interest in the draft and make it easier for a team carrying more than 12 players to get 48 minutes for everyone.

Yes, it would involve extra work, codes, players, and a lot of other stuff I didn't think about. But I think having a team of U21 players would be very interesting, and it would make the U21national teams much more entertaining. And as I forgot to mention earlier, I think the youth team, or any secondary team should be open to everyone, not just supporters.

I dont think they should make a "U21" team because thats almost like a special thing for national teams... I think there should be a youth league where the players only get 4 years and then they enter a random leagues draft..I have made a thread about this in the suggestions fourm.
