That League I did was named Iberian League, because it's a name that catches the 2 countries...

And blaming Brexit on a Portuguese guy, not sure that's how it works mate...

That would be a great discussion though. I don't think this would be the best place to have it, but that can be arranged, at least just to show you that I'm no ignorant...

Anyway, no worries, next year, I'll name it something completely diferent. Or I might not even try this idea again. Don't wanna offend anyone. But maybe it is just me that has a thick skin...

Anyway, I can see you're a great patriot. Best of luck to you

"saying that Ireland is part of a British culture is not Incorrect" Are you actually serious. By very definition Ireland cannot be a part of British culture because news fucking flash, IRELAND IS NOT BRITISH!

A better name is simple you "British and Irish leagues" it is that fucking simple... People like you are genuinely why Brexit is such a shit show, such amazingly high levels of ignorance it's unbelievable.

Your Portuguese Spanish league wasn't just called the Portuguese league was it?

It's really not a hard concept to grasp that Ireland is not British and that calling it British is extremely ignorant, insulting and outright wrong. People have literally died to earn the right of Ireland not to be called British.

The fact it's just a game is completely irrelevant.

Btw, saying that Ireland is part of a british culture is not Incorrect. They do not have Scadinavian culture, not Iberian neither. Not even central european. BUT saying that does not rob Ireland of their cultural identity and idependence.

I'm lucky enough to be a traveled man. I've been in most European countries. All of the UK + Ireland as well. They are very different countries but its clear they have a common starting point. That's all.

Didn't mean to get Brenno triggered, but I really don't see any better name to call the database. Otherwise, if I follow my plans for FM20, I'll have to make the Irish, Northern Irish, English, Scottish and Welsh DB. And may God have mercy on my soul if I start to add any more countries (I know only Ireland is Independent in this example but you get my point)

Sorry, I went on a bit of a tangent here. Anyway I'll try to do best in FM20

@phipps.sam1989 I understand the point, but its a pure geographical situation. I know there's tension (or a fierce rivaly) since Ireland got their independence and the Northern ireland situation doesn't help either. But it's just a database FFS.

On FM18 I made a database uniting Portugal with Spain (that invaded us several times since the 1200's, robbing our independence several times) and France (whicjh invaded us several times in the 1800's). No one opposed the name I gave that database or even the concept of it.

I known Ireland's history is one of suffering and misery and hunger up untill the point of their independence, but this game (nor this database fot that matter) adresses that in no way, shape or form.

Brenno has a point though. They are not part of the United Kingdoms. They dont even use the Pound Sterling. They use the Euro. But anyway The concept is still a nice one.

chill out brenno

British and Irish would cover it, or UK and Ireland. Not too hard a concept to grasp
Pete Rocketfingers  [author] Apr 19, 2019 @ 6:19pm 
So what should it be called? The English, Irish, Northern Irish, Welsh and Scotch Leagues?
Brenno98 Apr 19, 2019 @ 12:50pm 
As an Irish person I'm telling you we are not in any way whatsoever British. And if you called any Irish person British to their face you'd be lucky to keep any of your teeth, even if you say "You're in the British Isles (a term our Government does not recognise) though". Literal wars have been faught so Irish people aren't called British.
Pete Rocketfingers  [author] Apr 19, 2019 @ 12:18pm 
But if the British Isles, by definition includes Ireland, regardless of nations... That does not sound ignorant on my part. Since it includes the island of Ireland and Great Britain
Brenno98 Apr 19, 2019 @ 8:54am 
I'm saying calling Irish teams British is ignorant
Pete Rocketfingers  [author] Apr 14, 2019 @ 2:31am 
So you're saying including both irish and northern irish teams is ignorant'?
Brenno98 Apr 9, 2019 @ 3:12pm 
@Pete Rocketfingers My point is Irish != British. No matter what sort of spin you try put on it. To even dare suggest as such is shockingly ignorant at best.
Pete Rocketfingers  [author] Mar 26, 2019 @ 9:11am 
@Brenno98 indeed, as the British Leagues covers the British Isles, which include Ireland. If you just wanted Great Britain Teams, find a db about GB Leagues
Brenno98 Mar 21, 2019 @ 3:15pm 
"British leagues" includes Irish clubs..... :steamfacepalm:
DylPickle Jan 19, 2019 @ 3:09pm 
How do you actually use this mod? I can't find any nation with the leagues in it :/
david.roe Jan 18, 2019 @ 5:56am 
Quite like this one... but I;m not sure why you needed to change it to a country with barely any European qualification places... and why no Liverpool????

Theres no way to manage in this league as you cant select any of the required leagues
