Rushden basically start the game with a lot of money and a good reputation, so it is quite easy to attract better players to the club. It has been said that Rushden are a good side to cut your LLM teeth on.
However, they are Div 3, and you will find that most of the LLaMas around here look for a challenge in the lowest playable division - Conference, Serie C2 etc, and look at other factors - small stadium, large debt, big/small squad etc.
Have a read through some of the older threads, and you will see the variety of teams that people have achieved success at (or not in some cases)
R&D is fine for a 1st time LLM player. But the point we're making is that there is no challenge taking R&D to the Premiership, anyone can do it. So when people come on the thread and say, "What's so hard about LLM, I won everything with R&D in 10 years." Blah, blah, blah. It gets a little old.
Also, dealing with the "lowest playable league" issue above. Most of us do, but if you have a low-spec system, then turning on the Conference is an unnecessary burden, and Div 3 becomes the lowest playable league, so Div 3 won't get you burned. But that's a conscience issue, if you can afford to turn on the Conference, one should, unless you intend to move around the world and turn on a bunch of different leagues, because then you have to decide whether or not to turn on 'all' the Conference-level equivilents. I do, but again, not everyone can afford it.

So then who would be the hardest team to manage from the conference base on players how much in debt etc??<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
