Trade Committee nominees

I'm looking for (ideally) 5 Owners to help with trades.

The meter is now off as we all know how broken it is and makes trading sometimes impossible.
What this also means it can be open to some interpretation , lets say ;) Which is where I need some help in flagging up any trades that may be deemed as too one sided. Any trade can easily be voided.

i think 3 would be logical , but with as many team as there are in leagues 5 may be a better solution , as long as we have 5 that are active enough , with that being said , im on every day and im willing to be on the trade committee

Excellent!
The reason I try to use 5 is for that very reason, you're guaranteed someone being online, especially as this is a global game.
Many thanks wolfie

I'm active, but as likely to be part of the problem as the solution ... I always look to cut the heart out of the other guys team and add it to my own, or trade a bunch of FAs in a fire sale that nets me picks and stars.

That said, if you want me on your trade committee, I have a pretty good idea what's going on.

Well I see that as a plus, someone who knows trades, thank you.

I've done this before, badly, and in the future I would like to say *why* a trade is bad instead of merely putting the kabosh on trades I don't like. It should be more about helping inexperienced owners get better than it should be about experienced owners protecting themselves. That, and a better future, might make me inclined to stay.

100% it’s all about being fair and helping the less experienced owners along .
Would love you to stay And add you to the trade committee?

Don't do that right away because I'm not sure I'm going to stay.

Come on Slow, we need you. You're one of the pillars in the league.

OK, I'll stay, and I'll serve on the Trade Committee as well. I'm passionate about that, because it took me a long time to learn it. GrandadB just PM'd me and he wants me to join one of his leagues. Now that this league is on the ropes, he wants to do the vulture thing. Where was he all this time? :p
