That is not the point. Something needs to act as a deterrent so teams don't go into debt.

Even in real life, business transaction accounts earn you jack all in interest, next to almost 0 due to the high volume of transactions on these accounts. Whereas if you go into an overdraft, you pay a large amount of interest so people don't overdraft if they can avoid it.

This game is not about investing your money in a term deposit for 6 months for interest!

Yes but 5th place could also be a choice. You could try not to finish 5th by tanking and take the risk of a relegation series and finish 6th.

The point is, you can plan on where you intend to finish.




last season two teams tanked to get fifth placed in our league, which ended in a doube walkover betwen those teams and at least another one walkover to lose the point differential ;) So both planned to get 6th, and done a lot to reach it and there was still a fifth place - and not such a nice sitution for the other teams.

I don't think that the times the teams get in debt by option and the tax doesn't help to recover from debt.
Last season I ended in 5th place with around 300k in bank and in the beggining of this season I was -500K.

I didn't choose to be in debt and the tax would avoid this in any way, just anoy because I had to wait more to be back from red.

No. When you are in debt you must take a loan to pay players etc. When you have money, you just have them and you need them to be ready for use in a second, so no banking procedures could delay something. So no interest. Imagine it like that. :)

I think there is no logic in paying a tax if a team is in debt when the teams do not earn any interest when they are full of money.
If a team pays a tax when in debt it should receive interests when it has money.

NO
If a team is in debt there is something worng in his economical financial management.Taxes are a system to force a manager to change this situation


So when a team has lots of money something is right and that manager should receive interests on the money he has.

Maybe a team ending in 5th place instead of 6th or 7th and go on red because of that is not wrong management, is just bad luck...

5th position in championship is a problem that have to be solved by BBs...but this isn't a reason to help the managers who have a wrong economical management

I keep thinking that ending up in 5th with $300k cannot be understood as bad management compared to ending in 6th or 7th with $0 to $100k, even thought the teams that end in 6/7th place can start the next season with better economical balance.

For many teams figthing for 4th is much worse than just loose matchs on purpose to end in 6/7th. Sometimes even ending in 4th and making an additional playoff match is worse than ending in 6/7th and making 2 or 3 more games.

I think that salaries should be cut to 50%, or something like this, when teams do not have official matchs.

This is just my 2 cents.

I would prefer that the scrimmages among 5th teams of both the conference will give a definite amount on money,based on the division,instead
