Rich, Would it be possible to send out an e-mail to all Radio Station owners when the Friday match is ready to be broadcast? I know from watching the guests and Members "on-line" that we do visit the program, on a Friday night, many times waiting for transmission. Your Weekender gave me th...

Football Academy ~the weekender~
(Preview)
Football Academy will this week release the first of the weekender which will be a short look across the divisions at matches, clubs, managers and player performances.

Cup matches
(Preview)
For the first time in the game I am through to a higher round in the Cup. I do notice however, that there is no finantial advantage to getting though to a higher round. (He would say that wouldn't he) Surely a bonus must be earned when extra matches are played especially away to higher clubs. Just a thought...

Youth Academy Feature
(Preview)
An aim of mine has always been to incorporate youth football in FA, after all Football Academy as a game name lends itself to such a feature!! Equally I have been looking for an alternative way for managers to spend their manager wages they earn in the game, as apposed to simply buying clubs. As some of yo...

New Feature

A new feature will be revealed at some stage this season.

There will be no build up to the featur...

Club Info will give...

Below is the first look at part of one of the new upgrades next season. With the fitness system being overhauled, a pre season will be required for managers to pick before their first game of the season.

Fitness
(Preview)
Very important, FA has always operated on a season attrition basis that works as follows: - Players leave pre season with their maximum fitness. - For older players this isn't necessarily 10 fitness. - Every time they play, their seasonal fitness deteriorates. - Resting a player doesn't gain fitne...

Looking into a few simple changes for next season, don't want any major changes. Looking for ideas, and/or comments on these ideas. Pre-Season - Pick of 1 training camp from a selection of worldwide places. Could cost the team a fee but each camp would have a different effect on the squad ie. enhanced f...

Extending Loans
(Preview)
Dont know if this has been mentioned before but is there any chance we could extend loans. I have a player on half season loan to a club who want him to return after the update. Surely it would be easier and save loan slots if we could just extend the loan. Any thoughts.

Will the wages rule make the lower leagues boring for managers?
(Preview)
Answers on a postcard..... The other question to this is, will it make it harder for teams to loan out players in the future and therfor hinder the development of younger players. I understand that younger players are on less wages but if a player comes through with stats like 21-3-8-9-4 1 x Pass Bonus V...

With this weeks update should be showing wages for each team. This is a wage bill for the season and so each week it will increase, with the final team sheet showing you the exact wage bill you'll be paying in the close season for the last 23 weeks. Hopefully this is useful and is a move begin to allow financ...

Scouting system debate
(Preview)
Just an idea. Would it be better to have either a secret deadline so people dont throw all their bids in at last minute, or a secret price. Ie if a player starts bidding at 4 mill. Maybe Rich can have a set top range price for him that nobody knows about to stop the bidding, say for example 7 mill. I just think i...

All the upgrades I've done behind the scenes have been to speed up the match engine. However it's got to the stage where I can run all the games in a few hours. What takes more time is uploading all the team sheets into the engine. Currently, there's too many players in the database to give you 11 drop down o...
