I don't think anyone is questioning the need for changes or that there is a problem, we are questioning the specific measures taken to address the problems.

I totally agree with you. As I wrote on a french forum, I think these changes are wise and will help to have a stabilization of the prices.
Of course, some teams might not agree, especially those of the highest divisions that can earn a lot of money very easily now and don't want to lose that, they want to remain on the top and don't let other teams threaten for their spot but in the long term, keeping things as they are now would have dreadful effects.

I'm also looking forward to next season, hoping things will improve.

I think the part that you don't seem to understand is that these particular changes specifically hurt teams in the bottom half of the top divisions, not the teams on the top. The top teams will still make the most money and will feel a much lighter pinch.

In other words the gap between the top teams and the rest could possibly increase rather than the other way around.

Let me introduce an amendment if it could change the choices to draft giving the eight teams that do not go to the playoffs to have the first eight places basing them to the record and teams of the remaining postseason always based on the record so there is no risk that a team goes to playoffs does not exceed other that not go

Excuse for grammatical errors but are not very practical on english

I just ran into a language barrier. Ouch! No clue what you said there. I have a tiny headache now actually.

I like the idea of the promoted team getting the first pick in their new leagues draft, not the last pick in their old leagues draft. That or a financial boost, just like in the EPL.

Am I wrong in assuming higher quality players are available in higher leagues drafts? It's not the same appetizer as you go down buffet right?

Yes - the distribution is not affected by the league level.

NO ONE at this table ordered a rum & Coke

A CT? Really?
Any two will do
Any three for me
Any four will score
Any five are live

I think one issue you've neglect is that a lot of time there are very few active teams and even fewer scouting players in the lower levels. When I was in Div IV, I got pretty much the cream of the crop in the draft pool.

Now that I'm in the upper divisions (II.1), I'll be lucky if I can get a guy that will see the court.

I slowed down a lot because I new I'd have one of the last picks. I'm def. investing a lot into next years draft. Not pulling a Derby by any means, but I know I'll end up around the bottom somewhere...

Slowed down = reduced your investment in scouting?
