footynut Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Having won promotion to League One with Shrewsbury Town, I find myself guaranteed a play off postion going in to the last game of the season. The problem I have is that my top four performing players, 2 strikers, 1 defensive midfielder and a left winger, are all players I have on loan for a season and they are due to return to their clubs after my final league match. Does this mean that I will go in to the play offs without them or will I be able to extend their loan period to cover the play offs? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neyles Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 In previous versions I've often been in the position where I've lost loan players on the morning of the final day of the season. Very annoying. I'm not sure that this has been changed for FM08. I'm fairly certain that you cannot extend the loans as the "free transfer window" for English clubs closes while tournaments enter their final phase.

Nomis07 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 My loan signings usually stay with me until the new season begins i.e. fixture list released etc. Same for players I loan out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IbrahimAliMaher Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 I don't know but I always make sure any loan contracts are up after all potential matches have been played. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottishSteven Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 They end up staying until your season ends mate. I had the same thing, were I had that message before the league ended, then during the semi's, then again after the final. Don't worry about it.

Neji Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Im not sure but it will probably give you the option if you just continue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
