thanks. This season has not been kind to us. We thought that we actually improved slightly this season. We were holding tight in the first half but then the flood gates broken in the second half.

i really dont know what to do different. Last season we were still trying to catch up from recruiting and as jazz said i thought we were a little improved compared to last season.
Sad to say but i am tempted to just sell the donkeys, i tried to get a new OC and Jazz as the DC but we just cannot get anything done on either side of the ball.
Losing record means we cannot bring in new talent ( would like to get a couple higher level CBs ) but nobody wants to play for a team that is losing.
I will prolly make my decision tonight, i either want to get the players somewhere they can win, and get relegated next season to AAA. Or just sell the team and be done with it.
Season 3 we hit the ORG road block in the playoffs, they have done nothing but dominate since, and we have done nothing but lose. At best your playing for 2nd place in the elephant conference, id rather be able to compete in AAA then lose here every week.

I totally feel for you. Playing in APL Elephant Conference is not fun anymore.
For the teams ranked above you, they probably went through more terrible recruiting. If you put it into consideration, it's probably not much more fun.
Since Bort won't do anything to move ORG/LOL out to another higher league, I think it's perfectly normal and understandable to sell the team and be done with it.
It will be very sad to see another original member of APL Elephant leave us, but as I said, it's totally understandable.
No matter what your decision is, I wish you good luck.

GG Durban.
Honestly, I'd say moving LOL out wouldn't really change much.
Given the FA market, they'd still go for the stacked teams and the big winners. Recruiting is probably the most insane thing in GLB, and it's not going to get easier as more and more teams get uncapped.
Good luck whatever you choose.

I just wish APL could get some more respect. I remember when agents would play for any pro league as long as they could be in pro.
Anyone know how recruiting is going for below .500 usa pro teams?

Its not about wanting to be here, Season 3 we were a play off team. Ever since then we have not been able to compete ( on the field, or recruiting ) and you cant win one without the other.
In season 3, nobody wanted to play in Africa, they all wanted USA leagues. Now they only want teams who have won a championship or have winning records. Everyone wants the easy ring.

Ouch. Talk about being an ass. And yeah, the Gunfighters deserve to be here as they earned their way in. And that is exactly what we're talking about in case you missed the whole point.
We're not going to turn tail and go CPU in the middle of the season like some teams and quit. We are still game planning and trying to win each game but we're just considering relocating for next season and then earning our way back in when we're ready.

I think eterry87 was talking to Angola not Durban...
Just remember what your preach'n when your personal players are looking for teams. If you join the best, your hurt'n the rest.
