A few months back i won a GAD for a review of spy hunter and for my reward i chose LMA Manager 2001. It arrived at it's new home and was quickly slotted into a PS2. After a few month's play which started off at barnet dfor two seasons, then i was promoted to Wigan, then Wimbledon and finally i was picked to manage blackBurn Rovers. a childhood dream :). I have been playing for a while and have thought about an online game for the series when FF11 starts off the online craze. here are my ideas:

each season will consist of the 92 teams, and you have to register online. Once all the 92 teams have been booked the season starts and they start taking bookings for another season. each season will be on at the same time. Each team will be managed by someone, somewhere. If you want to be Man United you should (get a life) pre-book for a season and it will start when every other team is taken.
You will be able to make friends on a chat room and then sell players that you don't need to each other. If you were walsall and your friend was Arsenal and had some unwanted players who were excellent he could sell them to you to help you out. Then you could kick everyone out of the league.
Once you are a team you are commited. you can quit if you want, leaving your team out of action until the next season. Match times can be sorted on the chatline so that you don't constantly sit over a computer screen.
A lot of the good old stuff should be included, like building your own stadium, but make the budget a lot higher.
At the end of each virtual year people get relegated and promoted as usual.
The european cups will all be included. Each country will have a different league, i.e. italian people play as Juventus and Americans play as whoever they have over there. The only time it mixes is for European clashes.
You can choose who to play in pre-season friendlys, like playing your friends for a laugh. You can choose a maximum of 4 to play so the season kicks off as soon as poss.
The highlights should me more varied as well.

Of course there will be flaws, like people having to wait for their next opponent to finish their game before you can play them. But Codemasters are masters of codes, and they would figure out ways to stop this.

Thanks for taking time out of your 'busy' lives to read this
Any other suggestions are warmly appreciated.
