West midlands super team ?

Players can"t just join any team they like, it should always be their local team.  Sometimes this is a grey area, and there are a few exceptions whereby players have joined their "hometown" club.

Let"s just remember this is a fun community league.  Yes we add some great added value seats, but it is supposed to be a fun league.

Scoring system will be updated this year, and this should help the issue over volume teams having a perceived advantage.

This is how I took the rule, as 12 months ago I"d have still said "I"m from Wrexham" now i say "I live in Aberystwyth" and as I stay here christmas, easter, summer I have gone to what is now in my mind my local team. If I ever moved back to Wrexham permanently though I"d count Manchester as my local city as it"s where I"d normally go if i had to go to a big city!

There are a number of players who have done exactly that, some of them have valid reasons admittedly.

If there was another column in the Player Directory for "Town/City of residence" and people were honest about it, there would be uproar. Like you say Lee, it"s supposed to be a bit of fun but once you factor in the competitive edge and testosterone (and oestrogen  ;) ), the "fun" aspect has become secondary to some.
