I do apologise. All Sorts have quit though and will be tanking/training for a few seasons (and possibly going bot). I have a really long term goal that takes 6 - 8 seasons of training so unfortunately I will be doing the tank and buy up until my trainees start to be able to do something.

I fully expect to relegate and may never again promote but otherwise I'm finding this sort of boring. I like my quirky teams. Trying to make it really quirky at the moment :)

quirky because - everyone on your team has massive eyebrows?

I have to admit that I have copied you. I have purchased some players with "unusual" skill sets and patient is my second best tactic and I have had some real success with it.

I'm not saying everyone does it, but buying up just for the finals is the suckiest part of the game. Just the same as tanking and then buying up to avoid relegation. It sucks for everyone else and is easily the worst part of the game.

I agree with you here. I have long argued that they should do the same as the NBA where rosters are locked a week after the all star game.

100% agreed.

Rosters don't necessarily have to be locked, but the transfer deadline for playoff eligibility definitely needs to be earlier.

Locking the rosters completely would add a certain element to team management though.

Yes. When I say locked I mean playoff eligibility. I have no issue with people still buying and selling guys for scrimmages.

It seems very simple to me. We obviously have all played basketball and know that you need to play a certain number of games to qualify for finals. The same should apply here. If there was a limit of say 5 - 10 matches to be eligable for finals then the issue would be put to bed. Those wanting to go the big spend up method would need a lot more money and the risk of failure would be far greater.

I think a player needs to have played half of the season to be eligable for finals. This will hurt some if they have injuries but that is life.
