Stupid Chairman Ok so I'm managing Bayern Munich, Inter offer me £11m for Luca Podolksi and the chairman pipes up with the "Offer was too good to turn down" line and he confirmed the transfer as well, which annoyed me! BUT Then, a whole host of clubs offer £9.25m for Miroslav Klose and yet again the chairman accepts the offer!!! 2 of my top 3 strikers going for a fee of £20m!!!    Why do they wanna sell my top players for less then what I could of got if I wanted to sell them??? | | | | 11-02-08, 10:12 PM | #2 (permalink) | | Banned Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Knaresborough Posts: 500 Thanks: 945 Thanked 356 Times in 281 Posts Nominated 11 Times in 3 Posts  TOTW/F/M Award(s): 1 | Offer them really good new contracts Stu, with big buy out clauses!!! | | | | | 11-02-08, 10:47 PM | #3 (permalink) | | Used In Squad Rotation Join Date: Oct 2007 Location: Manchester Posts: 320 Thanks: 121 Thanked 46 Times in 36 Posts Nominated 2 Times in 1 Post TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | Its annoying, it happened to me before with Corluka and Richards in 2 separate games. If you're getting a big fee it doesn't bother you as much but this would really annoy me. All you can do is try offering tempting contracts before its confirmed or just buy better replacements eg. Briand, Huntelaar? | Credit to Apthered for the awesome sig. | | | 11-02-08, 11:04 PM | #4 (permalink) | | Important First Team Player Join Date: Feb 2007 Posts: 536 Thanks: 19 Thanked 16 Times in 11 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | Why did that happen? I mean such a big club like the german giants Bayern should only consider selling at 30 million. It has to be a bug or something? Its just nonsense. | | | | | 12-02-08, 12:47 AM | #5 (permalink) | | Indispensable To FMF Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Basingstoke Posts: 1,004 Thanks: 96 Thanked 175 Times in 167 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | unlucky mate best bet is to offer bigger wages hope you get 2 more good strikers that are as good or better than klose and podolski  | | | | 12-02-08, 04:43 AM | #6 (permalink) | | Important First Team Player Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Banda Aceh,Republik Indonesia Posts: 976 Thanks: 20 Thanked 50 Times in 44 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | lol.u can offered a new contract with big wage,if u dont want lose them. 20m u can buy saivet. | | | | 12-02-08, 05:20 AM | #7 (permalink) | | Backup To The First Team Join Date: Feb 2008 Location: Stroud, Gloucestershire Posts: 117 Thanks: 34 Thanked 12 Times in 12 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | funnily enough, Saivet is on his way to the club in the January window for a paltry 3m! The whole thing must be because the chairman has a high interference stat or something like that! Plus on the bright side of things, Klose is annoying... He keeps getting homesick which is odd considering he's a german international playing for a german team......  | | | | 12-02-08, 07:51 AM | #8 (permalink) | | Banned Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Knaresborough Posts: 500 Thanks: 945 Thanked 356 Times in 281 Posts Nominated 11 Times in 3 Posts  TOTW/F/M Award(s): 1 | Well he's technically Polish But anyway, if you're in season 1 then Klose shouldn't really leave considering he has only just joined, and you still got Luca Toni right? Just offer them higher wages, and if that still don't work, there are plenty of great players around everywhere!!!!! Good Luck  | | | | | 12-02-08, 07:59 AM | #9 (permalink) | | Important First Team Player Join Date: Feb 2007 Posts: 536 Thanks: 19 Thanked 16 Times in 11 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | Its messed up, I wouldnt play anymore if that was happening to me. | | | | | 12-02-08, 10:58 AM | #10 (permalink) | | Backup To The First Team Join Date: Feb 2008 Location: Stroud, Gloucestershire Posts: 117 Thanks: 34 Thanked 12 Times in 12 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | Nah, I won't stop playing just cos of that, like people have said, there are better players out there, for probably half the cost of what I've sold Klose n Podolski for... By the way, I'm now into the 2nd season, only just into September 08, with Klose and Podolski going in August.. Up-front, my options are now: Vagner Love - £6m signing Zarate - £4m signing Henry Saivet - £3m when he joins in January Goldstein - £250k when he joins in January Michael Seifert (He's a 16 yr old in my U-18's with 18 for finishing!) Luca Toni (Not exactly Mr Consistent!!) Also got Lulinha, Buonontte or whatever it is and Renato Augusto in the squad so I should be ok to be honest  | | | | 12-02-08, 11:06 AM | #11 (permalink) | | Banned Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Knaresborough Posts: 500 Thanks: 945 Thanked 356 Times in 281 Posts Nominated 11 Times in 3 Posts  TOTW/F/M Award(s): 1 | Good Luck mate!!!!! | | | | | 12-02-08, 11:38 AM | #12 (permalink) | | Indispensable To FMF Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Basingstoke Posts: 1,004 Thanks: 96 Thanked 175 Times in 167 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | Stu you got a class uupfront selection there mate good luck everyone | | | | 12-02-08, 11:51 AM | #13 (permalink) | | vBookie Team, Member of the Ozza Family Join Date: Jun 2007 Location: Cheshire Posts: 2,639 Thanks: 618 Thanked 397 Times in 320 Posts Nominated 5 Times in 1 Post TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | This has never happened to me, but its good to see you bouncing back from it mate!

I finished 4th last season as I had a mid season slump and struggled to get out of it... I'm 4th at the mo, but I downloaded capitano's tactic last night and T.H's one so I'll give them a go to see how I get on... I may turn the whole thing into a story... hmmm | | | | | The Following User Says Thank You to Stu Cowie For This Useful Post: | | 12-02-08, 01:29 PM | #15 (permalink) | | Banned Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Knaresborough Posts: 500 Thanks: 945 Thanked 356 Times in 281 Posts Nominated 11 Times in 3 Posts  TOTW/F/M Award(s): 1 | Would love to read it if you do mate!!! | | | | | 12-02-08, 01:53 PM | #16 (permalink) | | Indispensable To FMF Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Basingstoke Posts: 1,004 Thanks: 96 Thanked 175 Times in 167 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | hope ya do do a story about it wud like to read it mate :) goodluck :) | | | | 12-02-08, 04:38 PM | #17 (permalink) | | FMF Donator Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: In a house Posts: 642 Thanks: 14 Thanked 20 Times in 17 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | ok you r chaiorman has accept bids for your strikes but whats your finace like at the club because when there fairly poor thats whe the chairman tends to step in | | | | | 12-02-08, 04:48 PM | #18 (permalink) | | Decent Youngster Join Date: Jan 2008 Posts: 11 Thanks: 0 Thanked 0 Times in 0 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | ill be your chairman stu lol | | | | | 12-02-08, 10:24 PM | #19 (permalink) | | Backup To The First Team Join Date: Feb 2008 Location: Stroud, Gloucestershire Posts: 117 Thanks: 34 Thanked 12 Times in 12 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | Funny thing is, my finances are really good, into about £20m even after my epic £40m spending spree so far.... lol Looks like I'll be working on a story then! | | | | 13-02-08, 02:44 AM | #20 (permalink) | | Important First Team Player Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Banda Aceh,Republik Indonesia Posts: 976 Thanks: 20 Thanked 50 Times in 44 Posts Nominated 0 Times in 0 Posts TOTW/F/M Award(s): 0 | or b4......if other club bid ur player n accepting by chairman.....u can exit the game n u load it again :D.its cheat | | | |  | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | | | |
