For next season, whats your thoughts on, all unused scout missions being used and put up for auction on transfer deadline day?
ie if there were 17 unused scout missions by all our clubs, i'd do 17 scout missions and put them up for auction from 22:00pm on the Monday night till 22:00pm (transfer deadline time) on the Tuesday night!!!
Thoughts?

I like it, maybe we could keep i really entertaining, you give the players real life names/ages that reflect ow good they are, but leave their stats blind, then, we woul possibly have to research if D_Franco is an up and coming argentine tipped for the top or a useless div 3 player in Wales. Would be great in my eyes!

would be better if it was split into 2 lots with different deadlines one at 10 am and the other at 10pm for those who might struggle with different time zones?

i like the idea seems a good way to bring in new players. but just keep it simple everyone knows when sheet dealine. so just have one deadlne to that.

No the two deadlines are good, it gives the likes of Pom and Dragon a fair chance of bidding, okay they could stay up until stupid O'clock but that aint fair. Likewise if we Europeans want a player on the other auction, we'll have to do the ngiht shift. Need to stick with the player values, as having them start at nothing will be detrimental to the game.

no i say keep the players stats blind, just names only, and have all bids to start at 5mil, rrispective of if they are 11 rated or 25 rated, i like the idea that you would have to do homework on possibly 16 players to determine their ages, an dhow good they are/could be

or then how about a blind auction where we having 1,2,3 whatever amount of bids and we make them in secret and then the highest bidder wins. Something a bit different from what we already do.

I like the idea of an auction in principle, but we do have time differences and it needs to be fair to all.
Malky could produce a list of players details, then everyone can make a bid on up to three players, but would only be allowed to win one of them. Send your bids into Malky in order of preference, if you win the first one on your list then that is it, if not then you could win the second or third.
Everyone must have enough funds to cover their largest bid.

i like the idea but we need to get the rules sorted asap, before the transfer merry go round, so managers can start their plan asap for the up coming season, would hate a manager spend all funds on an average player, then the rules change....
This will at least bring the benefit of cash more into the game !!!

also we could set dates for example
1. End of season / do one for this years unused missions !!! (why not) this in my opinion would help the lower division teams to get off to a good start... 2. Transfer deadline day for the 2nd auction....
(teams with big cash could take advantage of the extra money) although the scout missions only have players the top teams would be interested as 'squad players'
So even if a 'top' team gets a player it is likely to free up another player and so on ETC::::
