Trying NOT to get promoted, Its a strategy some managers use to strengthen their teams through development of training and matches by holding their team back for a few seasons and it also helps them save up tokens, the downside to that is playing the waiting game by playing a number of seasons in the same Level before making any advancements on the game so it actually takes longer to win promotions but it can make winning league/champions league easier by having good players for a few seasons.

Its not possible not to gain skill points as players have to play at least 1 match per day and if no training was done then they would be on full condition and they would gain progress.

Interesting developments - i played the same player today at 19:18 as my friend did yesterday. Exactly the same thing happened. He did not have enough players turn up for the match and i was awarded 3 points.

I am not convinced that Trying NOT to get promoted, to strengthen their teams is the answer, The Manager of Team was in 2nd place -(due to the latest two results he is now in 4th) and only lost 2 games up until that point, Hes trophy room is average with 3 first places and one 2nd place - his last 3 seasons he has been 7th, 6th and 6th respectively and therefore been promoted each year - This does not seem to be a manager who is seeking to better his team otherwise i would have thought he would have made sure he did not get promoted. but it is genuine contender as a solution.

what i meant was i'm using all the player's condition in training. so i'm gaining skill points from training. during the match, their condition is zero. if the condition is zero, i have observed that even though the players are playing, they don't get any skill point % from the match. this makes sense as players are so called earning skill points from using up their condition.
