That would seem to indicate you didn't quite set up everything just right.
The first and obvious question is: Did you select England in the leagues selection screen? Dumb question I know, but it's always good to get rid of the obvious before digging deeper.
If that's not the problem, you might have done something in the database that screwed up the English league system, perhaps by putting too many teams into a league...
Disclaimer: I'm pulling all of this out of my a**, I don't know much about the database.
Try checking out the team swapping guide (it's somewhere on these forums I believe), and see if you did everything right.
