This is a fact: the better teams play in small countries (Venomous Scorpions-Ball Bouncers, etc...)

This should be like a ''UEFA Champions league system'' the less competitive countrys should have less chances to be in and the biggest countries should have more numbers of teams playing.

Totally agree with you

Mostly good points above. I have no problem with being called out for being a rubbish manager, though it would have been braver of you to call that fact earlier.

I'll take issue with being called the richest though. I don't think you realise how close to financial oblivion I would have gone had I got through, There would really only have been enough cash to last to the Scorpions game even if I sold everyone apart from my best 7. Why do you think I decided to purchase an extra centre and guard for about 5mil rather than a world class SF and PF that would have set me back at least double that?

Anyhow, it's all dust in the wind now. My main reason for this attempt was to put myself back on a level footing with my national league-mates, who I dominate simply because I started several seasons before them and have ammassed more wealth, I look forward to taking them on in even competition. Also I figured someone had to have a go at stopping Scorpions didn't they? Perhaps I could have carried on saving for a few more seasons (as many teams are), but I probably wouldn't have found a more interesting challenge than Scorpions.

So I failed catastrophically and embarrassingly, beaten narrowly by one of the best managers and teams in the game, but I had fun along the way so feel free to laugh as I crawl back under my rock.

Hopefully I can begin to enjoy BB again now.

The better teams?
I would say the richest teams.
How "strange", richest team from very small countries.

The very same old story going on... I do not mean to start it over again ;-)

Yes but it's the same Richest are the best...

But i'm totally agree with you

Base offence,mmmm

I'm going to be back in 20 seasons to win this using only base offence

All your bases are going to be seriously offended.

LOL, from a look inside bandwagoner who has never been past Espana V even though you joined in season 4. Please enlighten us with how you would have played it?
End of the day it comes down to training & reverse training at that. If his Gurads could shoot on the inside & inside guys could make jumpers then Base Offense would have been the way to go. Base Offense is as sound a tactic as any other. The idea was also good as he played Outside focused offense all the way through & switched while they went 3-2 zone. So again the idea worked.
The real issue, for me, was he had players that picked up Fouls on the Inside very quickly & that took them out of the game for extended periods of time.

Looking forward to playing you on a some what even keel

It's a valid point, but the same goes in reverse. We won something, how unfair would that be to not qualify? It's not our fault that we don't have as many members in our country. Hold on I'll walk up & down the street knocking on doors to get people to sign up
A better Idea would be to merge countries that have lower team counts, for example UK League, Scandanavian League etc, something like that.
