When my game finally arrives, I shall be starting to put together a new 'Premiership' renamed the Super League, this will include 10 Current Premiership teams, 5 teams from Scotlnd, Ireland (Collectively) & Wales & 5 teams from outside the UK, but still within a 'reasonable' travelling distance (which will be explained later)

The Premiership will become the top flight league, and pincale of UK football, and the Championship will remain as the Championship and will become the pinacle of English football, although a team from Scotland could be relegated to the Championship.

Teams that will be put into the Super League will have to meet criteria.

Such as;
- Stadium capacity of 30,000
- Minimum balance of £10,000,000
- Atleast 2 feeder clubs within the clubs area
- Academy and facilities rated 18 or above
- Training facilities of 18 or above.

The teams proposed are;[LIST]<LI>Chelsea
<LI>Manchester United
<LI>Arsenal
<LI>Liverpool
<LI>Everton
<LI>Tottenham
<LI>Blackburn Rovers
<LI>Manchester City
<LI>Newcastle United
<LI>Aston Villa

Scottish, Irish & Welsh teams
<LI>Rangers
<LI>Celtic
3 new teams from
<LI>Dublin
<LI>Belfast
<LI>South Wales - Which isnt Cardiff or Swansea

Outside UK - within 2 hours flight time.
<LI>FC Barcelona
<LI>Valencia
<LI>Lyon
<LI>Paris Saint Germain
<LI>?

Sadly to make this league work in FM, all other teams would have to be set to English and only produce English youth players, but having 2 local feeder teams, im hoping that clubs will still bring through their own nationality players aswell.

What Im needing help with is 4 teams.

Dublin, Belfast, South Wales & The other non-UK team, im willing to take suggestions.

Will it work?

Is Spain really that near to Britain? I'm sure Italy, Germany and Holland are closer.

So, my suggestions for that would be:

Bayern Munich
Juventus
Ajax

Also, I doubt Blackburn Rover have a capacity of 30,000. Try Sunderland instead.

Ewood Park holds 31,000, but im open to suggestions, why should Sunderland be in SL over Blackburn? :thup: :thdn:

I am also thinking about using the UEFA 4/5 star ratings as part of criteria, which means Southampton would be placed in Super League.

joey west ham is like 35k seater, and has superb training and youth

they would be above blackburn

Going by that, Man U will be the only 5 star team.

Liverpool, Villa, Sunderland (hint hint), Man City, Saints all have 4 star stadiums, with the Emirates and Stadium:MK(!) pending.

Well, this is the reason I put it on here, have it picked apart and then I could use it to build a new League.

WHRob, thanks, forgot about W'Ham and their youth team etc, its something to think about, Maybe reducing the 2 Irish teams to 1 and just having 4 nonUK teams.

Sunderland will be added, derby game with Newcastle is too much to not have in a Super League.

I'm playing as Juve and there stadium only holds 25378

retired_leelos99

I always thought Juve's ground was massive? atleast 45,000? just checked wikipedia and its just over 27,000, learn something new every day eh?

One more thing? is it possible to transfer referees into new leagues?

retired_jaimeparker

thats because their main stadium is being renovated..its capacity is over 67,000.

Juve are playing their matches at a temporaray venue now
