ottey_swe Posted April 26, 2009 Share Posted April 26, 2009 cause I never fail to renew contracts even if i never pay out any sign on fees.. Maybe you miss out on some signings if you do this though, but slight wage increases to their initial demands seems to have a larger bearing on their decision.. what are your experiences?

CaptainPlanet Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 I've always removed them and never had it affect any signings Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
heathxxx Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Once or twice, but that's because I'm normally trying desperately to halve their wages at the same time Well we are supposed to be in an economic crisis! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ezequiel_Lavezzi Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Not cosmetic for me, some players have complained about wanting a signing on fee on contract rejection. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elsgouro Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 In every single contract renewal so far, I've never included signing on fee (or slashed the fee to 10-20% of what the player requested). No problem at all. So, yes, purely cosmetic. A good way to save cash, though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phnompenhandy Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 Not cosmetic for me, some players have complained about wanting a signing on fee on contract rejection. The OP did specify signing-on fees for players already at your club; no one's reported any exceptions there yet. You example is different. For me, it wasn't cosmetic in previous versions on FM, but in FM09 I've always set it to $0 whatever they ask and have never been rejected, unless a non-contract player has chosen another club and didn't tell me the reason. I do manage a fairly high-rep club however, and this might make a key difference. Are you managing a lower rep club? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrotdude Posted April 27, 2009 Share Posted April 27, 2009 To be fair I've not really noticed, if I want my player to stay then I generally give him the fee he wants if I think its reasonable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
