idea for next season... was thinking about sell on clauses for players. i know it might sound complicated at first, but it can be entered in the transfer section as normal... eg. player from club 1 to club 2 for 15m + 10% sell on clause. a list could be kept (on this MB) of all the players who have these claus...

I'm interested in hearing peoples ideas for player development. What sort of development options and features would you like if there was a chance for your club to own a special youth academy facility which you could develop players as young as maybe 13 in your academy. All ideas can be left here and wi...

I am not moaning but, the size of the grid for the Team Sheet seems to be bigger than it was. I think it would be better if you could see more of the stats on the screen. This would mean a narrower LH margin and some other columns could be brought in a little. You can reduce the size of the letters on your compute...

I would think that Rich has a very good reason to have the matches on a Thursday. It may be that he does other things than look after our game, but, when it comes to going away for a week the Friday match is bad timing. We don't get the updates until late Saturday and most people on holiday have gone. If you can...

Question 1: Would you pay £2.50 to enter the FAFF next season? - I will look into getting a trophy or medal made up for the winner should the uptake be good (only able to send within UK) - There will be other rewards within FA for the top managers of this, like with Beat The Odds. Question 2: Wo...

Hi all, the name is pretty self-explanatory. It was an idea I had during last season but the season ended in a busy time for me so I couldn't develop it further. I've spoken to a few people and they seem interested but I though I'd open it up to everyone and see who would be willing to enter. Basically everyo...

what does everyone think about having how much wages the players are on? or showing how the wages are worked out? it would make sorting our clubs money out to stop us going itto the red at the start of the season. its the only thing i would change about the game

An idea I've had on my list a while and had mentioned previously but looking for comments and opinions on it as to whether it has potential or not. Would managers want a coaching badge system like there is in real life? It would be tiered like real life has Level 1, 2 then UEFA B and A and would consist of a mi...

Has sponsership ever been considered. This could be via a main Club sponsor or even an amount from ground advertising. The larger and more successful the club was at that time, the more money would come in, but the lower clubs could pick up a small income. Sponsorship, would for instance, follow the b...

As you may (or may not) know, FA Radio is undergoing a revamp to create more unique and therefore hopefully more entertaining match reports for the live games. The engine works on an 'Events' system and this is your chance to write your own match event. This could be a goal, a tough tackle, a missed chanc...

I am not sure if this subject has been raised before but thought Id bring it up the Loan option currently allows only 1 player to move each week but there are 3 transfer slots what about a new rule either 1.. new loan option of 1 in and 1 out each week 2.. Any Available Transfer slots could be used as Loans as w...

Football Academy is introducing a new system where by managers can be valued in the same way players are. Like the player value system it produces a value for the manager based on experience, tactics, transfers, weather adaption, fame (how high in the league system) and recent target achievement. T...

It's been suggested by a few people now in the upgrades ideas that we have a horse racing side game. A little like the Beat The Odds in that people could bet, but I think it could potentially be linked to manager wages, if I can find a basic way for managers to buy and own stables. It would be a way for managers...

Just a quick notification of a change you may notice. Red cards will no longer show up in the Final Score feed. Neither will they show up on the match results pages. They will simply be added to the team sheets. This is due to an upgrade to the engine which I'm really pleased with, but has meant the way I'd se...

Right i know most of you are thinking what is he upto again? im just thinking of spicing the game up a bit. FA fairplay, What it says on the tin. Basically at the end of each season, One team that has the least Yellow and Red cards from Each Country battle it out for a place in Europe, I have never been in Europe...

I'm sure im not the only manager here who, after a game where they have played their best eleven players and have an important game the week after, dives onto the team sheet page to see if any key players have picked up an injury. So I was proposing that there may be an extra stat for the players which gives t...

Rich, Just wondering how easy it would be after the goals on Final score to list the results too?

The Scouting arrangement for season 6 is likely to change. This change is also likely to link with a change to the donation procedure. Next season I will be looking to adapt the donation rewards to allow donators to pick a reward from a list. This will only become a reality however if it doesnt mean we end...

Hi all, Once again the teams of the season have been done, but seeing as the game is constantly being upgraded and new features such as Average Ratings have been introduced I am seeing if anyone has any great ideas for me to put in. So far there is a team of the season, top three goalscorers, top three assis...

Rich, This is only to do with this message board but was wondering if it was possible for you to inbed a chat box or a seperate chat room on here so managers can talk amoungst themselves whilst here?

Hi everyone, this is just a suggestion. I was thinking, Richard, why don't you have more volunteers on the website. I mean, people that will help out, ones you trust. Then you might be able to include more leagues and stuff on the main website. What you think? :)

I know it has been brought up before and there have been good reasons (mainly time constraints on WD's part) for doing things the way they are.

Another idea which someone raised and I have had in the back of my mind has been a change to the staff system. At present we have 1 assistant per club which seems to lead to a bit of assistant swapping and little else. I don't think any have been released as free agents and people don't seem to consider them a...
