There is one thing that pisses me off is that the Intertoto Cup is not included. If we could get the Intertoto Cup in the game, it would make it a lot better. Also clubs can be given a mail at the beginning of the season, saying whether they will want to compete or not and also be informed of others who have signed up for Intertoto Cup competition and as the rule goes the highest positioned club(s) at the end get the Intertoto Cup spot(s). Of course the coefficients, rankings etc have to be included in there as well.

Well, it gives lesser clubs a bit more to play for and Ok, I agree it is the hard way of getting to the UEFA Cup proper, but some of those managers out there might want a more menacing challenge and a pre season like cup tournament would be a great challenge of conditioning of your players and keeping your squad fit when normally in the Football Manager, series,a pre season would consist of training, a maximum of 3 pre season friendlies and that's it. I don't think that is hard enough.

Remember, not all clubs would be in the UEFA Intertoto Cup as we all know :p :D !!

The thing is Dragan with the Intertoto Cup is that smaller clubs in Europe, who would have no chance of getting a UEFA Champions League spot or even a UEFA Cup spot (think Bradford City), can offer those clubs a chance to compete on the European stage, even if they have been relegated from their league. A small one but still has its rewards and a little bit more income as well :).
