Personally think this type (B) leads to small cliques which is not what I understood to be APAT ethos. Also I suspect a few teams captains will cherry pick which will lead to a few very strong teams

I can see this - could have random allocation centrally to avoid cherry-picking?

Given their population in comparison to the regions of England is the problem not the lack of recruiting by the regions. Paul did a great job getting people to play for Scotland. Population of London is greater than my wee country.

Half your team were living in London.

Didn"t play nations cup.

Personally think this type (B) leads to small cliques which is not what I understood to be APAT ethos. Also I suspect a few teams captains will cherry pick which will lead to a few very strong teams (great if your in them). The remainder "weaker" teams, especially where they are "put" together, would probably just drop off ater a few weeks.

You may be interested to know that the team "put" together from the leftover players won the bronze medals in the national cup

Variance  ;)

BOINGBLITZ:
Option B.....this will avoid Countries playing Counties.

Having said that, can you try and include some means where the final games do not include just the teams with a chance of qualifying / winning as happened in the early rounds of The Online Cup?

A lot of people seem to not like the huge regions and would prefer a more local scenario - not micro-teams but something in between that keeps the advantages of both.

How about regional teams, but smaller regions, maybe centred around an urban area that contains a B+M casino, such as Luton, Cardiff, Walsall or Stockton?
