Crowhurst need something to do, wot with their players falling foul of Norman Hacker. And as Wentland League Champs they would be a fitting participant.

I tried to tell him that...among other things like just shooting for 16. Would you stay if it was level ground?

I tried to argue for things like level field and only trying to get 16 sides, but he was saying "No...No" and I just let it go.

Swilitalia: I was taking ranks from the KPB as the better nations in RL have better Club teams. For instance, England has the likes of Liverpool, Manchester United, Italy has AC Milan, Inter Milan and etc. However, nations which are rather awful, do not have any decent teams. Club Esportiu Principat (Andorra), anyone?

I am disappointed you want to leave, and hope the above can clarify that issue and change your mind.

Sel: Congratulations, you're proving your disunity for all. You also failed to mention I wanted about 90 teams, then dropped it down to 32 after talks. Oh well. You know where the door is.

Your argument does not convince me. you are acting as if it was directly proportional, besides, unless this is intergrated into the KBP rank system, the ranks will be based on a completely different tournament, which will not make sense as it will seem as if player did not gain any experience from your tourney.

So, i'm probably pulling out, but do not remove me from the list until my talks with sel appa are finished.

Monaco? :p :p

South America has it less pronounced - teams like Olimpia, Cienciano, Once Caldas and Colo Colo winning transcontinental tournaments at the expense of the Bocas and Vascos of this world.

Level field means ranks are all the same, hence a "level" field. I agree. If this doesn't affect KPB, KPB shouldnt be used.
