... I think everyone agrees that they have been pretty good for at least a year.

I want to make them better and get Saturday deadline leagues out on the Monday and Wednesday deadline leagues out on the Thursday.

If I did this immediately then a lot of managers would not have their turns processed and some would regularly lose their clubs.

All of this paves the way for kicking off a League 3 as it helps plan my week. I need you to get turns and payments in (if needed) by the midday deadline so I can input the turns that day and print / send out the next. I'm getting (many) turns through on the Friday or the Tuesday and I am panicking to get the turns out that day anyway so please make my life easier and get your turn in by the deadline.

Thanks.... Steve

Steve.

I've always said a deadline is a deadline. Anything received after the deadline is late and I do not think you should process them even if the league has not been processed. I maintain this stance.

Steve did you receive my league 1 turn this week? I just looked in my email inbox to check something on my turn. And at the top of the page it says internal error please try again??

I agree with the above. A deadline is a deadline. Going forward no one can have any complaints now that we have been forewarned!

I'm guessing from that managers are not hitting the time and date.

I agree with others that if it's not in on time then don't process it.

In a couple of weeks it will be the first time my directors will pick my teams as I'm on holiday. I don't think I've missed a deadline yet.

Total agreement from me too.
A deadline is a deadline. The regular turnarounds make playing this game brilliant and all managers should play their part in helping you to do this.
And roll on League 3

Absolutely. Roll on League 3! Looking forward to it. smile can you give the current League 1 and 2 managers the option of taking a team before it gets filled up with new managers?

Yes I agree deadline is a deadline my turns are usually in way ahead of time and I have paid for season tickets.

So no excuses

So if league 3 comes in are we looking at Monday Thursday Friday turn arounds ?

I just hope a league 3 doesn't spoil the cracking turn around times we have at the moment

Big pat on the back for Steve ........

The biggest problem for me since reading this is choosing a new team name.

I'm tempted by league 3 but that would mean giving a team up and not sure I want to lose any of them at the moment.

I know I have been late at least once but think you shouldn't accept any past deadline from now on

I agree with lots of the above. Always believed that if I miss the deadline by 1 minutes, it's not guaranteed I get in, and tough luck if I don't.

But that's my point. You SHOULDN' T have your turn processed, even for the sake of one minute.

Imagine a casino or a bookie taking bets once the event is over.

I didn't quite manage the earlier send out for this turn but I'm working on it.

I WILL process a turn if I have it if haven't pressed the process key yet as it seems a bit petty to just throw someones turn in the bin for being late when I haven't even processed the rest yet.

I'm just trying to press that process key a bit earlier so you would be advised to get a turn in before the deadline

I agree with Steve, I can't see the point in NOT processing a late turn if it's been received when he processes the league. But if he goes bang on time and you're late, that's the chance you take.

If I get my turn in before the deadline and then lose to a team, or get outbid for a player by a manager that has a day longer to work on tactics or transfer deals then how is that fair. If we give in to the anarchy that is being suggested then why shouldn't we scrap deadlines and only process turns once every manager has sent their instructions in. Of course turnaround times could increase to 11 months.
