England / U21 International manager vote-Intervention

« on: July 11, 2012, 11:00:42 AM »

Hi all, I thought this would be a good time to explain my plans for the U21 squad so you can decide whether you want to vote for me 

My policies will be as follows, i pledge to follow through on these points:

I will not pick any more than 3 players from any one team and no more than one player from my own team if no other options are better.
I will prioritise U21 players playing in the English league to promote National development.
I will pick players presented to me with not only high current ability but also those with high limited ability to promote the strong development of the youth team through to the Senior National team.
I will listen to concerns and actively reply to them personally and honestly.
I will pick formations and tactics to suit the strongest possible team selection.
I will try my best to develop players and restore some national pride to the under 21's catagory.

If i do not follow this pledge, i will be happy for GKO to delete my league team!

As you can see from my history, i am a good manager that has been promoted from the E leagues to the B leagues in straight seasons appart from my first season where i finished third. I will do all i can to make selections fairly and with the best interest of the U21 team at heart.
I am an honest, active and honorable player and am also active in the forums.

Anyway, i hope you vote for me and good luck to all the other managers who have applied for the position. Good luck all

Suggestions/Bugs / Shortlist remove button

« on: September 13, 2011, 02:14:07 PM »

Well, as the question asks... should there be a remove button for individual players on your shortlist?

This would be instead of having to go to the players profile then selecting the 'remove from shortlist' option. It would also allow for easier shortlist management 

This is my opinion... whats yours??
