Hey guys, looking for advice.

I'm trying to create a league of absolutely horrible standard, a 'pub league' if you will. What leagues other than Scotland are there that have no promotion/relegation issues so I don't need to create a load of non-league clubs?

I planned to set the league on Wallis & Futuna, if that were possible, as well, just to make the national team playable (At last)

So, any advice on what league to use that doesn't have those issues? I'd like to keep Scotland and the MLS if possible. Not too fussed about others.

U can use Australian A-league.
I used it when I was creating a league for me and my friend, with our fantasy teams.
A-league has no relegation and promotion, first 4 goes to A-league(final series) playoffs, and all teams (including lower) are playing pre-season and after-season cup.

Thanks. Do the Aussie Non-League sides play in the Aussie Cup? Will this be a problem if I change the league nationality to Wallis & Futuna?

If you look down the page at my guide, there is a league swap guide.

I'd personally suggest the Hong Kong league for this. It is 10 teams where 2 get relegated. The only divisions you need to do are the first and second. And even then, you only need 2 teams from your nation in the second division as it won't promote teams who do not match the country of your league to a playable league. Only first division teams are playable and used for the Cups... but a problem might be caused by the Hong Kong XI vs. Chinese port teams "All-Star" games, as while the Hong Kong XI is made up of the best players from your league by average ratings, the other teams cannot be changed from the Chinese teams. If you don't have an issue with that, this is your best option.

South Korea has no promotion/relegation if it really is an issue, but it requires more teams as there is 2 divisions which are playable and it has odd league rules, but does has a nice "All Star Game" feature with a Northern All-Stars and Southern All-Stars.

Thanks Dave. I looked at your guide, it didn't seem to cover the promotion/relegation issue. Do I need a set number of players to make thwe Wallis & Futuna national team active, or will just making them a full FIFA member suffice?

I've added a single team from the islands into the English Premier for now, just to test making the national team active, etc.
