Its a nations cup, shouldnt be ruined by popular vote from people who worry that they wont get the 5 places being fought for by 40 people. Dont see arteta whining about spain coz he isnt good enough but is for anyother country


Most of us arguing for the split aren't arguing because we won't get in, it's just a matter of fairness mostly.

england will naturally be close to peak in all major sports because of the population. Haxball shouldnt differ i feel. I understand that as ireland, we will play a brilliant england, but thats the thrill.
I prefer an A and B team, thats more fair than partition

Well, I'd support an A and B team too, I just think North/South would be more interesting.

A lot of the arguments in the chat are that it'd be England v England, but when their country is playing one of them, it's not England to them at all...

And that makes sense.

It certainly doesnt make it more interesting at all. Well, it makes it interesting to england, but thats it. Basically takes england out of the equation where ireland, scotland and wales are concerned.

England
Ireland
Scotland
Wales
India
ROTW

6 nations, so that'll be split into 2 groups of 3. The top two will go through to the semi's and the winners will contest the final. Adding another England now will complicate a simple format. Leave it as it is and it'll work well.

Once like the World Cup. 2 games in the group stage for each team then 2 games for the eventual winners.

Could probably do all the group stage on a Thursday then the knockouts on a Sunday.

Mad and opc have a good connection, instant chemistry.

Goal difference. Head to head is the most retarded way to organise a table in the world.

Whats wrong with splitting it up?
More people get to play as majority is English.
You guys need to remember this is haxball not the world cup.

Goku, the whole point of creating it was supposed to be for the country rivalry.

Irish, Scottish and Welsh don't want to play Northern England...
