I suggest to have a news flash on the top of every page, showing something like

- "Breaking news: XXX just acquired YYY moments ago for $Z."
- "Team AAA expected the completion of their recent expansion of BBB Arena in the next 24 hours."
- "Breaking news: Team CCC just put regular starter DDD to the transfer market."
- "Injury update: Superstar EEE of team FFF just recovered and expected to be ready for the next game."
- "Team GGG has not changed the offensive strategy for 5 games in a row."
- "Team HHH made GDP correctly for 5 games in a row."
- "Next opponent news: Player JJJ of team KKK has an average score of 20 or more in the last 5 games."
- "Team LLL has been in debt for the past 2 weeks."
- "Team MMM looked very active in the market as MMM made bids for more than 10 players."

Just like CNN / BBC , such flash keeps sliding on the top/bottom of the page and loop. Does it sound good?

It makes BB seem more realistic.

I dislike it partly. I would be really annoyed because i would be receiving information that i did not ask for.

Why would you care that i just bought a player for $z?

On the other hand, if its only about my team, or teams i choose im up for it. Lol :D

Hope you understand.

So, we should have a preference option.

1. News for your own team only (like injury news, arena expansion, national team etc.)
2. News for the upcoming components (e.g. transfer news, players recovery news, etc.)
3. News for everyone in your league (such as how active other managers are, additional information from other team in the league, record signing, etc.)

Would it be better?
