SaintsCanada Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 I know there is an official wishlist thread, so I apologize, but with the new ability to add leagues, I appeal to SI to make sure all Canadian clubs in the database are designated as Canadian, and not American, even if they play in leagues mainly based in the United States (Toronto Lynx, Vancouver Whitecaps, Montreal Impact, etc, etc.) Thanks!

Standard liege! Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 But why would they do that if they play in the American leagues? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintsCanada Posted August 21, 2009 Author Share Posted August 21, 2009 Because players should be building towards Canadian citizenship. A player playing for Vancouver for three years would be eligible to play for Canada, not the United States. Also, the regens created at these clubs should be Canadian.

Bragenca Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 The MLS isn't a USA league, it's a North American league Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BenArsenal Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Because players should be building towards Canadian citizenship. A player playing for Vancouver for three years would be eligible to play for Canada, not the United States. Also, the regens created at these clubs should be Canadian. I think they have already taken that into consideration. Players at Toronto FC are regarded as playing in Canada. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coasterkoa Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 BenArsenal is right, they already build toward Canadian nationality. What a team is labeled in the editor doesn't matter as long as the stadium is located in the correct country. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Standard liege! Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 Yes all Toronto players, play for a canadian citizenship. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Ritchie Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 I logged this as a bug while testing on FM09. I think there was a valid reason for not fixing it but I can't remember what it was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintsCanada Posted August 22, 2009 Author Share Posted August 22, 2009 I'm glad to hear it's based on location of the stadium. But for what it's worth, Toronto FC, if you go to their information page, are listed as Canadian, while the clubs in USL and PDL are not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin_ Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 I think the big question then is if you create the leagues below MLS, will you be able to set USL and PDL clubs as Canadian and still have them in the US leagues like Toronto. IIRC on FM09 Puerto Rico FC (not sure if that's the exact name) are listed as an American club but if you click on them the info lists them as a Puerto Rican club, and they seem to get Puerto Rico's NACL place.
