I agree with 'league news' I want to know who my rivals are trying to sign or signed. Before you know it they bought players I might have been interested in.

eg, Pique got sold to Atletico, if I knew I'd buy him. But I never thought ManU would sell him.

i agree with the poster who mentioned about his rivals signing players.

surely this should be in your inbox? the whole thing needs changing because as i say they've turned into in a game where it's just you on your own and not the living breathing footballing world.

soemthing that's taken si 15 years to create has been blown away in one move.

nice

then you'd nhave the option of reading or ignoring considering nothing in that news section would require a response this would be a good compromise.
Disagree. You still know. If you add Pique in your short list, you will be reminded that some one is trying to make offer, or when the others make bid for him. The "league news" is only seperate the news from league you are playing which are not relevant to you, such as your rival bough a player but he is not in your short list, your rival results etc.
It save time you because. I know you are playing a game, then you want to read any news, but this new ideal is good.
The only one thing is SI should give us the option the choose what news will be located to each "news box"

Oh noes! You have to click on an extra button to see news which isn't directly associated with you and your team. That must be a chore.

wah-hey sarcasm!

on a serious note, he does have a point. it's not like it's disappeared. you do only have to press another button. it saves too much news going in your inbox. i mean to be truthful, it's more realistic. you go into your manager's office, check your inbox, with all the info pertaining to your team, then, if you want, you check up on what's happening elsewhere, not forced to do so like in previous versions.

BUT......
when you go to the news, there's news items from months ago mixed up with new ones and they are not in any chronological order!

Yep, don't think this has been an improvement. I think that if the two are to be separated, we should be made aware of new competitions news somehow, and stories need to be filtered by date. Definitely preferred the old one-stop inbox for all news though.
