i can see the argument here because it is harder to advance from div II to the PPL than from div III to div II, but you have been in div III for 5 season already.
actually, it's just the same. income is bigger in higher divisions so it will be easier to recruit players who will be able to help you a lot. and this is just my fifth season in div III so i've been there four. ^_^
i think that you have tenured your team long enough to somehow be able to advance in the next division.
yes and no. yes, i have been in my league for some time now and no i have not tenured enough because there are managers who have been playing the game long before i did who are in my league right now.
besides, managing your own team for promotion includes training, selling and recruiting players, expanding arena and saving for salaries. you don't do that in a U21 team. ^_^
actually, in all divisions. =)
i know but when you are in PPL, you don't have to grip yourself every season for a team who will be relegated to your league because there's no higher league than PPL in the philippines. i said that bit because every season, a team from div II, which is already an elite division, gets relegated to our league. i hope you got my drift.
i'm not saying that, but what division you are in tells a lot about your managing skills.
partially correct. luck plays a role here also. aside from getting a rookie you can sell for high price, teams in your league will also determine if you would get the promotion or not.
yes, but you must have a concrete plan. what's yours?
about what? the U21 team or my team? if you're speaking about my team, i already got myself a front man who will be the anchor of my team and i'd say if i don't get promoted this season, next season will be my last season in div III.
but if you're talking about the U21, of course, like everyone else, i will assemble the best team we can get. i plan to get 16 players that i can mix and match depending on who we're up against. this is to counter the other team's strength, attack their weakness and keep the other teams guessing about who will play in our next game and what offense we will use.
