Right, so im managing Sheffield Wednesday, I have sugar daddy activated, and im trying to sign a couple of defenders..

Literally every defender I negotiate with "doesnt beleive the club can meet his demands", were even talking players who are only on £600 at their current club, my maximum wage is 8.5k..

any ideas?

I am currently having the same problem and apparently marc says you can change the capped wages but waiting confirmation of how to do this

I think my problem is that the players im trying to sign are asking for unrealistic wages, a BSP player on £600 a week now expecting 8.5k+ to sign for me..

I remember reading somewhere that this is because after the cash injection, you are seen as 'rich'. This means that clubs would expect you to pay more for players than a poorer club. Likewise, the player would expect higher wages from a club that has recently had a large cash injection.

I did think it oculd be something like that.. but.. im unable to offer wages any higher than before my cash injection!

And i have making my wage budget really high but that doesnt make a difference.. Marc???

As a premiership club, All the SPL players i tried to sign said the same, cant offer what they want. Most off them were on 1-3k and my maximum wage was 40k . I think it must be a bug

Did you have sugar daddy enabled?

just been experimenting, started a game as Birmingham, had a bid accepted for Graham Alexander of Burnley, he asked to 14k a week out of my 47k wage cap, I cancelled the bid and re-made it with sugar daddy activated, he then asked for 60k a week, my wage cap was still at 47k, I then put 18million of my transfer budget on to my wage budget and my wage cap was STILL at 47k!

Well, the best thing to do is make a bid you know they'll accept, and then go on holiday.
The assistant manager will offer the player a contract and will accept no matter how high/low it is.
Then you have the player :P
