    Even token buyers should then be told to win with managing skills not better teams..........
    Yes but when players buy tokens to get scouts or bid for players they're at least trying to win. When you tank you've just given up. And some tankers buy tokens any ways so they can power train up they're players for next season while they tank. I see the logic of tanking, but I look down on it. I dislike the idea of people losing on purpose.

    I can't say that I don't agree with you but if you don't have any chance also you don't have a lot of time to make some tokens or to search for players why you should fight for 6,7 place?

    Why shouldn't you fight to proceed to the next level? If you're team isn't good enough to make the top 7, then it won't make the top 7 and you'll have to remain on the same level, but you'll be able to do it the right way, and you'll become competitive again because of it.

    I agree losing solely for the purpose of making up a stronger team is not very good, but is u get trolled to the limit and have no hope for CL next season, it is better to stay behind.

    It is not about team being strong enuf to get promoted. If u r out for half the season, return to find urself much Behind top 4 and still in top 7. Wud u like to get promoted for the sake of it????? And no CL means less money next season to buy better players and so, indirectly, u r screwed for next season as well.

    Is it tanking if you let your players be but they're just really that bad? I've done it before but I don't use illegal formations or use bench warmers. I did it last season but I'm 3rd right now.

    Being out of CL whend you do not buy tokens it is the worst thing that can happen.
    League prices are not very high, mostly to help pay wages.
    CUP you Never know what can happen, also the prize money are only good After the first 3 stage.
    CL at least you have 6 games to earn good money.

    I already stayed out of CL spots, and the season After is always very dificult, because the money is a problem.
    THIS GAME IS TO RANDOM! I STOP WAISTING MY TIME!

    Isn't getting promoted an achievement in itself.

    I considered tanking a season because I refuse to buy tokens and I started to fall behind some teams but Im on level 14 in my 14th season and I didn't want to break that. I consider being promoted 13 seasons in a row as an achievement.
