If you were only permitted to play for the region where you lived, then yes, that would be fine. That wasn"t the case - people could, basically, choose which region to represent regardless of where they lived.

I wish, but this wasn"t. People had to play of where they lived or been born. This was why suddenly a few people had to leave the teams they used to play for and had known people and had to built a team Europe, which is a huge region but not many players. Unfortunately I did not know any of this region, and most of them had the same prob, and most of them therefor not cared and could not bother to appear after a few games (started after the 2nd game). So region is not everything.
I think it is fine to choose a region of regardless where you live, but as I and others said before limit the amount of players, and if there are regions with lots of players just make more teams of this reason. Like 30 - 40 players a team, and than have Scotland A, B, C, D and so on.
I like the thought though of what someone has posted earlier, where you live, have been born or owned a sheep, lol within second i would buy me a sheep in the east midlands :D

A for me
Couple of points
1. Seems Scotland and Wales are being criticised for having too many players and this affects the league.. 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.
2. If you go for the small team format over that length of time, player availability may become a big issue if teams have players who cannot play every week.
Time for a compromise

Yea was about to say the same , just catching up on the forum , and I read in this thread how much of an advantage Scotland , Wales etc had with team size , can i just say that we grew that size from nothing a couple of years ago through recruitment and promotion, to the team it was last year , and resent the comments of unfairness made.
Are we really going to go back down this road again , it seems that this discussion arises in between every league break and is becoming tedious to say the least. ,
Rant over , Option A for me ,
