Thanks, won't happen again.
I'm actually doing surprisingly well, mainly due to some good loan signings, but I feel a slump coming on...needless to say, I doubt I'll finish the season where I am now. |

And just as I say that, my star striker is out for four weeks. |

I'm not saying MLS shouldn't be acceptable, since it technically is and can be good for beginners, but its not as realistic, especially since FM now allows you choose the amount of experience you have.
| Ah the official bio on the team site that the former NT coach is at doesn't list the pro experience.
And I'm still on FM 2006, so I wasn't aware of the feature change in 2007.
My apologies for the name dropping as well.

Thanks for the draft explanation, bingitz. I believe that the supplemental draft is for players who are given frees by their current clubs - that is to say, there is a maximum squad size in MLS and after the Superdraft, they have to pick their squad for the season. Any players that aren't selected in the squad are given frees and are available for pick up on this supplement draft, from what I can make out.

Actually that's the waiver draft Wizzle. The supplemental draft is for college kids and other unattached players who don't expect to make much, but want a shot at making the reserve/development teams or the first team at a low salary. Or at least, that's how I understand it.

I started in MLS but gave up after a couple of days. What the hell is a Waive and a Draft and loads of other things which made me think they weren't real English words.
