vicng93 Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 A fond farewell for Michael Owen Having completed an incredible 12 seasons with Manchester United, Michael Owen bowed out with a 3-2 victory in his testimonial match. It was a fond farewell for the player, who arrived at the club in the same year as current manager Vic Ng. This is the first time that i got this kind of retirement headline! Anyone got this before?

tyron1 Posted December 16, 2009 Share Posted December 16, 2009 You need to have someone at a club for at least 10 years, with you staying at the same club, and when he retires, you get the son, but he must play at least once every season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbinator Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 will you still get the son, if ive had the player for 10 seasons..say 18 to 28 years old, and then sell him and he retires at another club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridley99 Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 No you wont, he has to retire at your club.

xenardo Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 lol i guess there are certain players who do retire after more than 10 seasons?

vicng93 Posted December 22, 2009 Author Share Posted December 22, 2009 yes im their favourite personnel as they made a huge impact in my club ( Dzeko scored goals for fun in his first few seasons in my club ) but retired after more than 10 seasons but still no son Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
