I've been a member of many FHM online leagues and it is unfortunate that so much work has to fall to the commissioners in order to make it livable for the GMs, but there are leagues out there that do a great job of handling the FHM quirks. They did try to add a feature that helps with the injury issue you described, it's called Lineups, but to use it you have to hand over line and tactic control to the AI, which no one I know is comfortable with, so it doesn't really get used. If they separated it so just lines were controlled by the AI it would basically fix that issue. As for the ftp issues, that's dependent on the league's ftp server. Many leagues use free ftp services, which are up and down all the time.
As Bayken mentions I also wish there were online html reports that could be exported, right now a lot of leagues take a ton of screenshots so people can see what's going on without loading the game, but again that's a fair bit of work for the commissioners. The csv exports help a bit but they lack a lot of info still.
All that said I do really enjoy FHM6 online, I play it exclusively online now and I've met some great groups of people who do a great job keeping leagues interesting and entertaining. Here's hoping FHM7 brings us more features for online leagues.
