So who is planning on running for the job this time? and am i allowed to apply again?

Interesting one this - I found it a good time commitment to have to make, but enjoyed it immensely.

Don't think we did too bad in the end - made the last 8 last time, then admittedly got wiped: one of the reasons I think was that I couldn't create a team how I wanted to in the end, in the image of my Venice Dolphins (I) team that topped the Atlantic rankings at one point. Don't think being a lower division coach and/or lack of great numbers of forum posts had any impact myself, just my star Venice team had lots of players from around the world who I just couldn't find a UK equivalent of, even after lots of hunting and PMs to coaches all over the place.

Loads of coaches were so helpful to me in getting a team together (truly you again!), but I think it will be a big challenge for the next coach as a few of the countries who did better than us now have outstanding strength in depth coached up across all 22 main starters that will take some beating.....

Lets hope the next coach can work more magic than me!

ps: I had taken a div 5 team up to div 3 just before became UK coach, topping my div 3 at the time. I beat lots of teams in cup runs who were many divisions above me over my previous time in the game and shocked at their defeats, so just because I wasn't a div 1 or 2 team (who in some cases joined the game much earlier and so had a much better starting point) I think demonstrates a lower div coach shouldn't necessarily be ignored. Just depends on what you've managed to achieve with the roster you've had, that's all (if that makes any sense?)
