Who would be interested in a league based on English Soccer?
I've been kicking this idea around for a while now, so I'm putting out feelers to see how many other people would potentially be interested in this. My general idea is for a league with fictional players. The teams would be those from the top three or four levels of English soccer. Four levels would give 92 teams, three levels would be 68 teams. I'm not ambitious enough to shoot for full participation, but if 1/3-1/2 of the teams were filled, I'd call it a good deal.
I'd probably recruit a couple people with strong interest to help me make the universe itself (setting up divisions and what not) and work out the details of how things would work, but as I see it:
My general goal is to make a quasi-fictional league with teams based on soccer clubs, as if the English football teams decided to play baseball. I wouldn't try and emulate the transfer system, though. Just regular baseball with promotion/relegation, basically.How many people out there might be interested? I don't know how we'd go about selecting teams at this point, this is just to determine interest level. I've got a temporary message board here: Message Board - Home If you're interested, sign up there. I'll be asking for input from people on aspects of the league there.

Those are the main things that I'd want to go over with the initial owners. I would probably go with separate drafts for each league, with free agents and trading shared between all, if that would work. I think that's how the World Baseball Hierarchy league does it, and it seems like a good system.

That would be a bitch to set up and maintain, that's for sure. But if you think you can do it and don't mind having a first-timer onboard, I'd be there like shareware.
I could also provide website, forum, and graphic help, if needed. |

I set up a temporary message board here: Message Board - Home
I'd like to start moving ahead with this, to see if more people will join up as it gets closer to starting. |
