DP Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 It definitely an issue that older players are released too early. Hopefully fixed in the patch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordieboy52 Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Let's be fair it is happening quite a bit now; not in the top division, but if you look at the Championship and below there are any number of managers that started in their 30's - Keane, Magilton, Eddie Howe, Paul Trollope and Owen Coyle to name but a few.

If they have their coaching badges then they're qualified so will be employed. There age doesn't really come into it. I don't know about all your examples above but Keane might have still been playing if he didn't have to retire due to injury. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
