Hey Taffy1956,

In general it is possible to level up from the 9th position in the League or not level while being in the 8th position.
This is stated in the League rules:

Now when it comes to high level clubs such as yours (40 to 50+) - At those levels it can happen that there aren't enough teams to create enough groups for the next level of the League (Next season), and it is possible for the match maker to level up Clubs outside of the top 8 in the League.
Sometimes you and some others may get promoted while other times the opposite can happen - End in the top 8 but not promote. (Which is definitely the better option for a lot of managers for obvious reasons :/ )

This is a discussion that has been occurring here in the forum (And even in tickets at our support team). Please check out this thread here where right now the discussion is still going on. I am actively redirecting players to it at the moment.

But do know that, as I've stated on several places in the forum - This is an issue that we fully understand and are working on improving the situation for all of you veterans.


Thread will be closed. Continue the discussion about this particular matter in the above linked thread. Thank you.
