I like this suggestion. Just a couple things...

1) make sure transfers between the 2 teams isn't allowed (easy fix)

2) make it OPTIONAL for supporters. so if somebody has or buys supporter, they don't automatically get the team. if they choose to have supporter but not the 2nd team, they can. This way there aren't rotting teams, and if you don't have time for one, you can stick to your first team. I would say maybe make it cost $3 a season, and you would have to buy supporter beforehand? This way BB makes money and there aren't a bunch of dead teams.

For people like me who spend a lot of time on this game, and you can only do so much....a 2nd team would be awesome!

I haven't seen one legitimate reason as to why this is a bad idea that CAN'T be fixed. Do it, BB!.

um...well what happens if both your teams somehow land in the same league??

While the chances of landing in the same league is unlikely, it is not impossible. Especially for succesful managers. There is only 1 top league per country and 4 Div 2 Leagues. Once you get out of D3, the chances of it happening becomes more and more likely

Now once this happens, a number of events can give an advantage to one of the teams e.g. deliberately tanking games for one of your teams, etc

I hate this suggestion, sorry. The focus should be on making any possible improvements to the experience of owning one team. There are more potential problems than there are potential benefits to this suggestion.

A national team is something completely different and not really comparable to a regular team imo.

No training, no money management...

NTs are much more complex than regular teams... and yes, there is training involved, especially on U-21 NTs, and is much more difficult because you are not responsible for making the players develop... and there is no money but there is the pressure of an entire community that expects from you the impossible...

#1 is only a policy to refrain people from cheating through multi-accounts, so it really doesn't apply here. There's nothing wrong with buying a 2nd team.

#2 I already replied to, though. You won't get any in-game advantages. Much like bookmarks or scoreboards, this only adds to the gaming experience without actually giving and advantages. Collusion wouldn't be possible and if same leagues is a problem, you could work around that (such as the 2nd team starting in another country, or coding it so that 2 teams from one account won't be allowed into the same league (very easy to do/accomplish, until you get to the top league)).

I always thought the private leagues were supposed to be exactly that - now I know better (PLs are a waste of time imo).

We find that a good percentage of Supporters purchase for the Private Leagues, but to each his own, of course.
