Wouldn't any team be envious that they could field Chris Duncan at 2315 as the bottom board of their second team?Alan Walton wrote:Martin, the squad size for teams with multiple entries will just be doubled, the normal 80 point rule would applyMartinCarpenter wrote:Something like limiting total squad sizes does seem rather sane.
(Mind you even that might just about have an impact - Sheffield D used 23 players just to run a team of 8 without defaults in the Yorkshire league last season....).
White rose do also have two teams who share the odd player at times, although different divisions of course.
A pair of hypothetical combined Jutes of Blackthorn team(s) would just be very different entities to the present set up - the first team would be notably stronger and the second team notably weaker than either stand alone team. Really not a lot of flexiblity left once you line everyone up in legal grade order. No additional advantages really.
This is just to make teams a bit more vigilent was entering teams and not just registering players so others cannot approach them
