There are a few gaps in my research that I'm finding hard to fill and would appreciate any help. This goes for anyone else who knows about the real clubs too. Please either drop me a mail or visit the site in my profile. :thup:
| Exactly what information are you after? Which teams etc? Visited your site but i need a bit more information on exactly the info you require and if i can help i will. There's been that many changes to the league format over the years, it's hard to keep track of everything here! And apparently more changes are in the pipeline in the future.

Currently playing as Chimney Corner, as that was the team Frank gave me. Four cup competitions, which makes things interesting, especially since there are only 22 league games in the lower divisions. Get to see some funny LLM stuff, like goalkeepers slipping on the wet turf and missing the ball, or the ball bouncing over the goalkeepers head. Sort of reminds me of youth football.
Also, the 3 subs on the bench rule makes things interesting, because it makes you have to decide if you want to carry a reserve goalkeeper. I didn't once in a cup game, and paid dearly...
BTW, I am about half way through my first season, sitting 6th in league 2.

The finances are an absolute nightmare, I've made a net profit of 40k from players out and I'm still well in the red after a season.
It's a great challenge trying to put a team together to get promoted and keeping your head above water financially as well.

| Irish League football at it's best! These are regular occurances in Irish League football In the past i have gambled and never taken a sub keeper. Fortunately, i've gotten away with it. In my opinion, the Irish League is the best LLM league to manage in because of the challenges.

I'm playing as QUB and my finances are frightening. 168k in debt despite the fact I'm only using half of my wage budget, also none of my players are worth any money so it looks like we'll be in debt for a while.
On the plus side we're doing well in the league. Probably my favourite league this Northern Ireland.

You can beg for forgiveness to Luciano, not the powerless mods.

Yeah, nothing like seeing a little "-" sign next to the value column for every player. Love the "transfer roundup", where it tells you the most spent in the transfer window was like $2K. Also won like $900 for making the semis of some cup. Yay! Now I can pay for the heat in my club's offices!
It was funny to watch the defender I put in attempt to play goalkeeper (my goalkeeper got hurt in the 10th minute, so I knew I was in trouble). Sometimes he would just miss the ball and not move, while the opposition ran up and kicked it into the goal. I was laughing too hard to really be mad about it.
My opinion is that the Northern Irish league is true LLM, try it out sometime! I am having loads of fun!
