Thanks for the reply Dean, I'm not sure that I agree that Blackburn U23 are rated appropriately as a group compared to other U23 teams.... but that's football, and we all have our own opinions. If the database for the final update was locked last week, does that mean the update is due this week? Sorry I had to ask :-)

Is there a Blackburn researcher who can advise why the members of the |Blackburn U23 team are rated so low in both current CA and in PA? They are 2nd only to Man City in the Premier League 2 Division 1 table Scott Wharton was one of the stand out players for the first team and was picked above Ayala (when he was fit) before his injury Hayden Carter has gone on loan to Burton where he is one of their best players and has helped turn their season around Tyler Magloire has done similar at Motherwell Dan Pike is a stand out performer at right back for the U23 sid

Josh O'Keefe has retired as a player and become a physio for Blackburn Rovers U18s https://www.chorleyfc.com/2020/05/27/okeefe-hangs-up-his-boots/ https://uk.linkedin.com/in/josh-o-keefe-ab50a055

Many thanks, do you know when is the update due to be released? and is there going to be 2 updates (Feb and March) like last year?

I know that there are custom start date mods, but would it be possible to be able to chose to have a February start date (with real life league tables, real life player stats etc), so that we can play the 2nd half of the season with as much realism as possible Custom start date mods don't quite do this as they cant bring through player stats to my knowledge Many thanks
