KeegBCFC Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Been scheduled a Copa Del Rey match whilst the 2022 World Cup is going on and the league is on hold, not sure what the case is IRL but I would assume the Cup would be delayed just like the league?

That is not a mistake. Those teams were promoted to Primera División RFEF a new division for next season. This new division will be the new "Segunda B". Those teams will stay in the third tire of Spanish football. They were not promoted to Second Division. But you still can, if you manage to win next 2 rounds of playoff against teams from the other 5 groups.

noincophydr Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 (edited) The Professional League Association (LFP) that manages LaLiga (First division) and Segunda (Second division) implemented a Salary cap inspired in the NBA model in 2013. Seven years later this is not included in FM. http://lajugadafinanciera.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/limite-salarial-la-liga-2020-2021-primera-division-1.jpg http://lajugadafinanciera.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/limite-salarial-segunda-2020-2021-1.jpg These values can be modified during the season depending on additional income generated by the club. https://www.laliga.com/transparencia/gestion-economica/limite-coste-plantilla Happy to help you to implement the salary cap if you need help, just contact me.

The B teams in Spain are totally bugged. You should be able to roam the players between first and second team as long as they are U-23. For instance, several clubs have youngsters training with them and playing on the B team, but this is not possible in FM21, they can only do this if they are U-19 which doesn't reflect the reality and is not accurate. Do you have a source for this? Our understanding is that movement should be quite restricted between A and B teams. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurkburk Posted November 19, 2020 Share Posted November 19, 2020 I'm playing in the newly created 3rd tier in the 22/23-season. I have met the squad rules which means I have registred 22 players which is maximum. Although, I can't give my U19-players (who doesnt require registration) a squad number when lined up for a match. (My backup goalkeeper got injured and I'm just having a youngster on the bench). Last season the youngsters automatically got numbers 23, 24, 25 etc, but now it's not happening and the "Squad numbers not assigned"-popup keeps showing up.

It is my understanding that because of the way FM is programmed, you could have for example Villareal B and C or Sevilla B and C playing in the same division, should the C teams be promoted, which is not correct. Article 108.2 Forces any club that has a B team to also have a U19 team. (Does FM check for this?) Article 227 is about the line-up of players belonging to dependent (B, C, U19) teams. - Players can play for a superior team. For example, C players could play for B or A teams, B players only for A team. (FM has troubles with C team) - Only U23 players can be lined-up in the A team. Exception: goalkeepers must be U25. (Goalkeeper rule is not included in FM). Note: In FM19, once a player plays 10 matches for the superior team, he cannot be moved back to the lower team. This is wrong for B and C teams, but valid for affiliated clubs. Therefore, it was wrongly implemented in previous FM versions. Article 228.3. In competitions which are NOT the league tournaments, a maximum of 6 players form the affiliated teams can be fielded. This is wrongly implemented in FM, which has a limit of 6 B players for the league competition and no restrictions for Copa del Rey neither Copa Federación. Article 230. An Non-EU player of an affiliated club can only play for a superior team if this team a free Non-EU slot in the squad, and only up to Non-EU limit of each competition. (Not implemented in FM). Article 121: Maximum squad size: Primera and Segunda: 25 Segunda B and Tercera: 22 of which a maximum of 16 O23 players. As always, I am happy to help to get the Spanish competitions right. So far we have the current critical issues: - TV money amount obsolete. - TV money pot split is not correct. - C teams are not allowed to play in the same division as B or A teams. - The innovative salary cap implemented in 2013 (and that FIFA is considering implementing worldwide as one of the options to curb crazy wage budges and ensure financial sustainability of the clubs) has never been translated into FM after seven years. This is a major game flaw, and it hurts specially to see the great effort put into modelling the MLS rules in comparison with the little attention given to LaLiga.

Traditionally in Spain a filial was the B team but I see that from a legal point of view it defined as follows: Article 109 says that an affiliated club is essentially a somewhat independent club, with different board, even when the squad is controlled by the parent club. This is the case of Peralada and Girona FC. Article 110 establishes that a "dependent" club shares the board with the main team. This is the case of B and C teams. I have updated my previous post accordingly. Again, in a non-legal conversation, normal people would use the traditional word "filial" for both kinds of clubs, the words that have chosen for the legal rules is not the most intuitive choice in my opinion.

At first, I thought the rule was valid as you do, but if you read carefully articles 109 and 110 you will see the difference between a dependent team (B, C) and an affiliated club (e.g. Basconia, Perelada). Thefore at the end @aboudiaby was correct. They have chosen confusing wording to define what a "filial" is. Apparently, FIFA forced RFEF in 1990 to make this distinction.

I think it's preety valid as it is. Yes, I believe that rule only applies to the teams that are considered "Filial". These are the teams that are kind of independent (their own board, tshirt and so on) but have an agreement with a certain club to be their filial. This cases are Peralada and Girona like he said, and Basconia and Athletic believe it will be the same (we would need to check this out). But the relationship between Athletic and Athletic B (Bilbao Athletic) and Osasuna and Osasuna B is not "filial" but dependent team. Which is covered in the article 227. Journalists in these two links are confused because in Spain we call filial to that teams (athletic b and osasuna B for example) but this in the rules they are referred as dependent and this creates a lot of confusion. Both webs are refering to the article 226 wrongly.

Since 3 or 4 years ago, the Spanish league has a sistem that gives the TV league money by: 50% money base 25% depending of league position 25% reputation, fans attendance... By the way, this is the money given in the 2018/2019 season: Official source: https://www.laliga.com/transparencia/gestion-economica/derechos-audiovisuales And the amount of the money differences by league position: Total amounts: In the 17/18 season: 1.325,8M In the 18/19 season: 1420,4M We can suppose that the total amount in the 20/21 season could be (without covid effects) :1.609,6M Apart of that, there is a relegation-help: https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.marca.com/futbol/primera-division/2020/07/15/5f0da454ca474155298b45c7.html This money-help is based by total income of the last 5 years, TV income of the last 5 years, and years of first-division-maintenance. For example, Espanyol received 30M this season just by this money-help.

Maybe one reason can be that the league has not been updated since a few years ago in terms of TV money contract, wage club limits of the league, wages and release clauses of the players... Beyond fleshing out all the bugs, if Miles wants more Spaniards to buy the game, in my opinion the key is to add the lower divisions of the pyramid: Third Division and Preferente. It is a big task but it would bring £££££, because Spanish football fans love to play with their little town clubs. It could be done in two years, first the Third Division, and if SI feels there is an increment of the sales as I forecast, then Preferente the next year.

If you ever put 5 of them in the field you will get the match lost by the competition jury. You can check the case of Alcorcon this year, that got their game with Zaragoza given as lost because of that reason: https://www.marca.com/futbol/segunda-division/2020/10/14/5f872fb1268e3e7c668b4615.html There is an exception this year on certain Covid cases but this is probably irrelevant for the game The maximum four players from "second teams" rule also applies to 2B and Tercera competitions: https://www.rfef.es/sites/default/files/pdf/normas_reguladoras_bases_competicion_segundab_tercera.pdf (Art 11.3) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have met the squad rules which means I have registred 22 players which is maximum. Although, I can't give my U19-players (who doesnt require registration) a squad number when lined up for a match. (My backup goalkeeper got injured and I'm just having a youngster on the bench). Last season the youngsters automatically got numbers 23, 24, 25 etc, but now it's not happening and the "Squad numbers not assigned"-popup keeps showing up. Yep, also having this issue and holidaying past the game is the only way to continue. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LorenzoFM Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 On 18/11/2020 at 09:21, LorenzoFM said: Same here. U-19 players should not need to be registered, but in fact if you don't register them , they won't be able to play "Copa Federación" for a team in "Segunda Divisón B" which I think is like a Spanish "Copa del Rey". So this is a 2 in 1 bug. Apart from that you can't give them numbers ( I Had to use automatic numbering), those U-19 not registered/inscribed won't be able to play Federation Cup (Copa Federacion) On 18/11/2020 at 10:29, LorenzoFM said: Another error here: 1 -When playing RFEF CUP (Copa Federación in Spanish League 2nd División B) we should be able to set up to 9 substitute players at bench, but in actual game we are only allowed to have 5 substitutes (5 players at bench). 2- Apart from that, we should be able to make up to 5 substitutions in a match, but we only are allowed to make 3 interruptions of the match to make subs. So 5 players could be substituted but in 3 interruptions. Here you can read the rules about it (Page nr6) : https://www.rfef.es/sites/default/files/pdf/normas_reguladoras_bases_competicion_torneos_rfef.pdf @Freddie Sands@Stephen Glennon please have a look at this.

Yespy13 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 A couple of things I saw. 1) Osasuna got relegated and Osasuna Promesar were promoted to LaLiga Smartbank and they shouldn't be able to play in the same level. 2) The new league system is not well implemented, nor named. It should be as follows LaLiga Santander LaLiga Smartbank Primera Division RFEF (2 groups of 20 teams, north and south) Segunda División RFEF (4 groups of 20 teams, like the current 2ªDivisión B) Tercera División RFEF (18 groups of 20 teams, like the current Tercera División, I guess this is not implemented in the game, as in previous games, even if it is something we all want to have) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don´t think that they will add Tercera RFEF to FM21, however they should add additional latent teams to Tercera División Groups to ensure that the new format of Segunda RFEF is sufficiently fed by teams and in order to manage the promotions/relegations of the following seasons... 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eduparce Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 On 14/11/2020 at 02:10, Eduparce said: Technically, the league rule allows 22 players in the squad, and their numbers are between 1 and 22. Whatever, Copa del Rey allow list U-19 players in their matches. The problem occurs in the prematch when I must give a number to the U-19 player but I only can assing numbers between 1 and 22 (same as your squad in the league) but I can't unaling the player or continue to the match. In my opinion I could assing numbers like 27,30... like in other Spanish leagues for these matches. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ UPDATE: I sign a free-agent player in november, for the league rules I can remove a player on the squad list and add him, but previous error occurs, I can't change the number list, dropping a number for the removed player and give it at the new player. Only can have 22 numbers in the list, can't drop the number for downgrading a player for the U-19 squad and add new free agents because can not give him a number in their first game prematch. It was solved very well. Thank you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
He can't believe he's missed it Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Promotion is an absolute mess in my game in the third tier too. Seemingly there are tons of mini leagues and the top three go into a promotion league group which makes sense. The fourth place team goes into a playoff group where I presume the winner should get a playoff spot.. yet somehow two of these teams who finished fourth in the initial stage go up automatically while the promotion group are battling out for one playoff spot between the six top teams. So we're about to have two teams going up with 30 points after 25 odd games yet teams with nearly 60 points will miss out.

patpul Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 So, now I have a question about promotion play-offs, alredy after change the league system. First of all - are there alredy rules of promotion/relegation to/from Segunda Division RFEF (and all the new leagues)? Because in wiki I can read that: Quote Ascenso y descenso de categoría Aún no está definido el número de cupos de ascenso ni de descenso, así como su formato.https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segunda_División_RFEF In system impremented to FM21 should be (I think, and in the league phase rules it's written so so) that in promotion play-offs (from Segunda to Primera RFEF) plays three teams from every group (it's 15 teams) and the best brom fourth-placed (one team). So It should be 16 teams. Winners of first phase plays in the final and four winner of the final matches are promoted. But! But in the rules of play-offs there is written, that in the semi-finals plays 14 teams (seven pairs) and in the final eight (!). So. I finished third in my group. The message I've got I can read, that I reached play-offs and... there isn't my team. Fourth placed in my group Cornella el Prat was the best from fourth-placed teams and they were playd play-offs, but not my team (If I would draw in my last match, I would finish fourth and reach play-offs as the best from fourth-placed teams, but I won :/ ) . Also Cadiz B, which finished third in group 4 didn't get promotion to play-offs. I think it's an issue and should be improved. Here you are the screenshots.
