League Updates

[De drie musketiers_NL]

Dear managers,

After many, many years @blob59 has quitted his role as OSM League Manager. We are extremely thankful for all his years of keeping the OSM leagues up-to-date for all our users. In the meantime, we have worked on a new system for the league updates.

We classify two types of leagues:

1. National leagues: at the time of writing we have around 130 active national Leagues in OSM. From now on, every one of these leagues will be updated at least once a month. In busier periods (e.g. real-life transfer windows) we will try to increase the frequency to once a week. This could be subject to change.

2. Other leagues: at the time of writing we have around 30 active ‘non-national’ Leagues or Tournaments in OSM. Those Leagues of Tournaments will be updated on a periodical basis. Some Leagues/Tournaments will barely be updated given the nature of the league (e.g. Club History A or World 1998). Other Leagues/Tournaments will be updated more frequently (e.g. Champions Cup or Europe Cup).

League updates include transfers, players added to squads from youth teams, player market value re-evaluations and adjustments to team goals. By increasing the update frequency we try to make OSM as up-to-date as possible. However, as a league moderator be aware that team goals might change more often. Check the most recent update at League Overview when setting a new season.

We strive to a high quality of content in OSM. As a member of the OSM Community, you could contribute to this as well via this topic.

What can be reported in this topic:

• Obvious mistakes with regards to teams or players. One could think of players with incorrect birth dates / nationalities / positions.

Always include a link to a reputable website, such as Transfermarkt.com, to support your request for change.

What should not be reported in this topic:

• Missing transfers that occurred less than a month ago
• Requests for changing player ratings unless there is clear evidence to suggest the information we have is clearly wrong.

To keep the topic length down, your posts (including our responses) can be deleted once in a while.

@ado-hackovic said in League Updates:

When can we expect a Community Leagues update ?

I'll make sure they are updated at the end of the week / beginning next week.

Edit: leagues should be live tomorrow morning around 10.30 AM (CET).

@de-drie-musketiers_nl Hello mate!
I would like to write you a few things about one league and their players, more precisely their position on the field.

You made the league 'World 2006' and I must say that for the national team of Serbia and Montenegro there are a couple of mistakes regarding the position of the players, it would be nice to correct that.
For exemple...
*Ivica Dragutinović has played as a left back all his life and that is his primary position (he also played a central defender as needed), and you put his position as a right back.
*Predrag Djordjevic played as a whirlwind left midfilder and in that position he managed best during his entire career and he spent the most time in that position, you put him on CAM in this league..
Thanks in advance for your understanding, cheers

Thanks for your detailed feedback. The two adjustments have been made.

@de-drie-musketiers_nl I just noticed that the LeagueTypes pages contains incorrect information about the season that is currently available. For example for Belgium this page says the current season in 2020 (this should be 2021/22) and for Ireland this page says the current season is 2019 (I think this should be 2022 because the last update took place at January 21st).

These are just 2 examples, the same thing goes wrong for allmost all the leagues that are available on OSM. Can this be fixed soon?

[De drie musketiers_NL]

@koningco Yes this is a known issue, but thanks for reminding us. Although I think it's 'annoying' as well, I don't expect it too be fixed very soon, since it's only visible on this page and only for Web users. Nevertheless, I'll report this bug again.

[Koning Co]

@de-drie-musketiers_nl It certainly has value for the winter leagues that start around this time (like Nordic countries). If the information is up to date then we can easily see which leagues have been updated with promoted and relegated teams for the new season new season.

Hello

Was seeing the Portuguese League teams and found a big mistake on FC Porto.

Fábio Vieira is never a striker (ST), much less with 7 of defense. He is central attacking midfielder (CAM), as you can see in Transfermarkt: https://www.transfermarkt.com/fabio-vieira/profil/spieler/537598

[Vincent Ado Kompany]

You should update the Serbian League. I saw in Crvena Zvezda's squad, that a player Nemanja Motika is not there, but he is now the Red Stars player.

https://www.transfermarkt.de/nemanja-motika/profil/spieler/604323

And player Mustapha is now in FK Novi Pazar. These transfers were in February

2 idea's for new tournaments:
Copa Sudamericana (South-American equivalent of the UEFA Europe League, currently running)
UEFA Nation's League A (starts in June)

Hi @De-drie-musketiers_NL

could you please update the Community Leagues?

[Koning Co]

@De-drie-musketiers_NL In addition to my post on March 9 I now know that there are also nations leagues in Central America, Oceania and Asia. It would be nice if these can be added too.

Hi!
A new idea for the next season:

• Greece 2nd Division (Group A and Group B)

Hello everybody,

I've been noticing that when of the latest 'cheating trends' is to avoid players to get tired or in lower physical condition.
It is common to check that even after 5, 6 or more matches some players keep their fitness bar always on green.
In order to 'kill' (metaphorically, of course) these cheaters, why not to introduce a new feature like 'physiotherapist' from whom managers could take advantage to recover the players condition in a shorter time by using e.g. boss coins?

Just food for thought.

[Koning Co]

@vicente-maya If you think there is a bug then you can start a topic on the support forum. But I haven't noticed anything, players get tired and orange fitness in my teams. Maybe there was a rest day because your team was not in the cup anymore? Then fitness recovers indeed.

[Koning Co]

By the way: on topic here ==> why is the Nations Cup A a league and not a cup format?

[MenagerBL]

Could you please update the ''Community League M''?
The last update was a long time ago...would be nice to play competitions with some new teams...

[Majstor Matt]

I admire the work that has been done for assembling Nations League A... but how in the hell none of Croatian 3 top goalkeepers is not in the team (GKs chosen for first 4 matches in June)? Specially Livakovic...

Anyhow, thanks once again for league update, nice challenge if nothing.

[De drie musketiers_NL]

@majstor-matt Livakovic should have been included, something went wrong with the update. Croatia was one player short and Denmark had one too many. Should be fixed as of tomorrow. Thanks for your feedback!

[Majstor Matt]

@de-drie-musketiers_nl Nice, good to know that he will be in. Thanks for the intervention.

Could you please update the Community Leagues?
