Hi,
I am currently managing Ipswich in season 05/06 and am supposed to be playing in the UEFA Cup. However, the competition only managed to get past the qualifying stages, and then stopped; I am in November now and the draw for the first round never happened. Checking over the SIGames messageboard I saw that a few people mentioned the problem but said that by the end of October the competition had started back up. However, mine has not, and I was wondering if you had any info on why this may have happened. I've done a little research into it and a couple things stuck as as possible reasons, but they don't seem too likely to me:
1.) One of the final qualifying fixtures took place a week after the rest of the qualifiers were scheduled and finished.
2.) Two of the Intertoto Cup final fixtures were played 8 days after the scheduled date of the finals.
I was thinking this could possibly cause the computer to delay the draw for the first round as it would not know who the opposition would be yet. But that's just a totally uneducated guess on my part. Also, I am running EP4 but this is a continuation of a game I started using EP3.
Thanks :)
