I like it. More tactics to play around with although I would have also like the option of double teaming. Anyways keep up the good job BBs.

we are pretty careful about speculating about new features, so i will decline to comment.

There are a number of users who weren't around in season 8 and a lot of us have memory deficiencies similar to the protagonist of Memento, so maybe it would be a good idea to archive news updates that involve signifcant changes affecting game play. Sort of a compendium that could be reached from the rules page, the forums, and the help page.

With the new menu's and whatforth, do you think it might be a good idea for everyone to receive a BB-mail directing them or at least making them aware that a new news article exists.

Just thinking allowed in one other game I play if i receive a mail from a fellow manager I have an envelope with a number next to it indicating how many mails.... if the mail comes from the game makers or is sufficiently important enough to try and get the user to read it straight away I get the same envelope this time with an exclamation mark on top so I should (if i was paying attention) be immediately drawn to it.

As a lot of the announcements can and will likely effect the prices that players are being sold for I think this would be a welcome addition so no-body can say they weren't aware etc.

*Awaits being told to put this in the suggestions forum...

Got so worried, i decided to add something relevant to the thread!

Great new addition!!!! Now did you get that brown envelope safely Charles!!

It is more for financial reprucussions.... with the transfer market being 24/7 there is a distinct advantage for anyone who reads the news first (or can be)... fully appreciating that english isnt everyones mother tongue language it feels fairer to at least try to ensure everyone has the chance to interpret the information at as close to the time of announcement as possible as a player who was a dead cert to sell for $6mil last week is already now touch and go at $4.5. BUT with some managers unaware this would perhaps lead them to spending a fair few weeks extra spending thinking they have a great deal when in a few days from then they would read a translation of your news which had they interpreted as others then maybe wouldve saved them a considerable amount of money.

Good news ;)
If ok then you can implement it giving us the possibility to set the defensive orders also for the substitute and in case to allow us to leave a position "free" setting a double defense to the most dangerous opponent player.

Great news, but I have a small suggestion: wouldn't it be better to be able to test the new feature in the Private Leagues as well, since the vast majority of users don't field their starting lineup in friendlies for obvious reasons? For example, I'm only planning to use 3 players in my friendly matches since I don't want to risk injury in a useless game for the guys I am not training, so it will be impossible for me (and many others) to try the new feature out.
