james170288 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 A fiend of mine claims that without cheating, whilst managing crystal palace in the first season he had a board takeover and was given a transfer budget of £110,000,000. can any one from si confirm that this is possible? and is everyone else as sceptical as I?

hitemfrank Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I've see Cardiff be taken over by a tycoon while in the Championship. They got promoted then finished 6th in their first Premier League season and 2nd in their 2nd season. Had some poor managers since have been challenging the for Europa League places for the last couple of season. So, yes it can happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

McPimP1987 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 My house mate got taken over by a tycoon, when he was leeds in league 1. Gave him 64million to spend. I was very jealous. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardinalRed Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Seems possible. Charlton got taken over in mine at the end of season 1, and went on an enormous spending spree in the summer. Can't confirm how much of this is due to the takeover however. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PW Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I've been managing before when takeovers have occurred and although the amount does seem a bit excessive I think it could well be possible based on my experiences. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cadijk van Kaarhandel Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 In my Scottish save, Annan Athletic were taken over by a tycoon and rewarded with a cash boost to the tune of £30m. They then proceeded to purchase my (Aberdeen) dross who nobody else had touched with a bargepole. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackripper Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 might have all that cash but would you sign for palace? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayahr Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Doesn't palace always get taken over in the first season? Then, unless a special takeover was pre-coded, there would always be a likelihood (maybe just 5 percent, maybe 15, dunno) that the takeover will be a tycoon one which could easily include figures such as this. So your mate might well have gotten this lucky. That being said, you can do this with an editor too I think, so without proof it could be both legit or not.

santy001 Posted January 27, 2010 Share Posted January 27, 2010 On last years I had a tycoon buy my club for £800m we already had £500m in the bank and he injected another £700m into the coffers. Out of love for the chairman I bought several large name Finnish players to the club, in with my usual spending spree of about £200m a season which barely touched the bank balance lol. Thanks to him Keirrison kept scoring in his twilight years, although my years of prudence and building the bank balance had been for nothing really when he came ploughing in his hundreds of millions lol.
