AJ1 Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 According to this post over at CMFrenzy.com, SI's Mark Vaughan has said previously there are 7 types of take over. - PLC - Consortium - "a consortium of businessmen will purchase the club, possibly installing a new manager" - Fans Trust - Rich Individual - Tycoons - Promotion from Within - Elections So it says there that "a consortium of businessmen will purchase the club, possibly installing a new manager" - is there a possibility they may appoint a new manager? cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsenal_2111 Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 there is that possibility for all takeovers, if you are doing well you will very rarely get fired. Never seen it tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iacovone Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 Well there's always a possibility! But in my experience I've always survived Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ1 Posted April 29, 2009 Author Share Posted April 29, 2009 Im doing quite well. I managed to secure the spanish cup in the first season, along with ECC qualification got through to the semi finals of ECC. Second season i was runner up in the league to barcelona, and won the ECC. signed some huge big name players. Messi for one £35.5m (now barca want him bk . I'd be surprised if i was sacked, infact i would be shocked lol! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
R-dizzle Posted April 29, 2009 Share Posted April 29, 2009 I'm loved by the fans and board alike (not like that would matter if there was a takeover) so I doubt I'd get sacked, I've had moderate success with Rushden (See Location) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakobx Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Just save often and reload in case you are sacked. No need to end the game because of some random takeover and poor game design. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ1 Posted April 30, 2009 Author Share Posted April 30, 2009 Im extremely pleased to report that the new board have decided to keep me in the job. They were "impressed by the support for your management at the club and had been persuaded to allow you to remain in charge". They have also announced that "construction work has begun on upgrading the youth academy and training facilities". So i get to keep my job, a £21m cash injection (not really needed but not complaining) and an upgrade to the training facilities and youth academy. I can start building for the future with some hot prospects. I was approached by Roman Abramovich for the Chelsea job just before this takeover talk started. I was offered £71k per week wages, a transfer budget of £58m and a wage budget of £1.8m p/w. When this talkover talk started, and the rumours were they were installing Frank Rijkaard i was gutted! and kind of wished i'd took the Chelsea job, but im glad its all panned out ok Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starby Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Got West Ham promoted from Championship and after iffy first season in Prem (finished 14th) got us up to 10th before being sacked in board takeover (consortium-styley). Finances were sound, great young players coming through, fans love me and job status very secure. Still got the boot! Pretty miffed to be honest - anyone else had sth similar?

av3ry Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I've seen a consortium take over a couple clubs where they have threatened to hire a new manager. At Leeds the new consortium hired Steve McLaren to replace their old manager, despite thretening to replace him with Karl Bordengaard. Leeds had just regained promotion back to the Championship in 2011 when this happened. McLaren's first game in charge was a 2-1 defeat to relegated Yeovil Town lol. At Chippenham Town the new consortium threatened to hire Johnson Hipolyte only 3 games into new manager, Steve Waywell' Chippenham career, lucky for him it took a while for the takeover to happen but when it did his team was in 18th place. A couple weeks have passed in game since that takeover and Waywell is still in charge. He is probably only still there because of the decent start they made. It depends on how much the new board want to change the club whether you get sacked or not. I presume Leeds wanted to go forward quickly so hired a successful club level coach, whereas the Chippenham board are prepared to give their boss backing for the time being.
