In the last version relegation from the lowest leageus was introduced just before it closed. Whilst targets keep managers on their toes I thought the relegation was a good introduction. Could it be done again - and if so can I propose Ipswich as one of the new teams in England - I may move from Italy if they are good enough!!!
It could be introduced if managers wanted it? Managers would have to accept that if their team was relegated from League 1, Serie B, or the Segunda Division that they'd lose their job and have to accept one of a number of offers they'd then get from other clubs. And it would be unlikely that these offers would be from big clubs, maybe the new clubs being promoted in their place.
I wouldn't run whole background leagues but could have a few teams waiting to be rotated with those relegated each season, as with the old version of FA in the final seasons.
If people had preferences over which teams were introduced they could put them forward.
Richard.
