Subject: [NSW] North vs. South

Moldova - 102 users --> 30 users joined the NSW - 29%
Eesti - 354 users --> 74 users joined the NSW - 21%
Norge - 131 users --> 27 users joined the NSW - 21%
Sverige - 163 users --> 29 users joined the NSW - 18%
Suomi - 340 users --> 52 users joined the NSW - 15%
Danmark - 365 users --> 52 users joined the NSW - 14%

So I hope this season will be:

Cymru - 22 users --> 8 users will join the NSW - 36%
Scotland - 95 users --> 25 users will join the NSW - 26%
England - 591 users --> 67 users will join the NSW - 11%

But if you want to play beside another country we have nothing against that ;)

For a country with 600 users, we could muster 30 (10 more from Cymru and Scotland I'd guess). Its quite sad really, these forums are pretty dead (perked up recently, but) :(

This a great opportunity to show what we are really about.

There are loads and loads of good, active managers that do not participate in the forums that I know will get involved with this. I have a friend who plays and when I mail him about these he always gets his name down.

Why not get a SK mail together and send it out with a direct link to this thread so try can get their name down, and let's make this the biggest NSW England have ever got involved in.

Fully support the other nations in GB to get a representative and do the same.

This sounds like a perfect opportunity for someone to take the lead and get our community going again.

NCFC?!

I was willing to try but if you think that we have no chances to bring 100 teams from GB maybe I should look for a bigger opponent, and you for a smaller one.

What do you say, we can hope for 100 GB teams or you should find a smaller opponent?

You mean Jerked up.....corrected your typo. ;)

It might be worth pointing out that the figure of 591 English users may be rather misleading. There are only 239 English users who have been around for over a season.

Based on a quick squint at the bottom divisions in other nations, it looks like we are much slower at clearing out the "one-clickers" than other countries. This is definitely no bad thing in itself, but if I'm right, the English participation rate in NSWs (and Forums etc.) is actually much better than people might think.

Ok, I understood the situation. I you say you can't bring 100 teams I'm afraid that we can't play against you and leave out over 100 romanian teams so I will try to find a bigger opponent for us. Good luck finding another opponent.

Yet I hope that someday we will face Great Britain ;)

Shows you the community we have at the moment, not a single effort to make this happen,

Bleh, I've forgotten to do the Staying Drive message, was to busy sulking. I will do it... I promise.
