Okay, I will definately think about this. I will first concentrate on the regions for the third division, but it is going to be very difficult. For Division Two, nearly all the teams are in the Championship IRL so I could look at the 09-10 Championship page on wikipedia and use the map on there to help. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009-10_Football_League_Championship). Does anyone know of free software that could give me this, but let me specify the markers?

I am considering doing a Division Four, but am still unsure about it. It would involve the 4 newly promoted tier 5 teams, all of tier six, and all of tier 7 bar the worst team in each league. This would give me seven leagues of sixteen, but I lose my wikipedia maps at tier seven and the regions would be a nightmare. The other is half the league would be semi-pro and half amatuer. It would be very hard for the amatuers to keep up unless I went through the editor and indivitully put every player and staff member from 63 clubs on to part-time contracts. No thanks. So I am going to leave it at Division three for now, unless someone has a better idea?

Was toying with the notion of having a league cup exclusively for League clubs 1 to 4 & a Super Cup for the 16 team Premiership. (Elimination playoff)

Introduce an open youth cup for all teams. Player restrictions must be under 21, must be homegrown (club or nation).

And for the finale a 5 Home nation tournament as a season closure.
