Players leaving because of another player????

Nobody likes my reserve keeper at Bradford, and while I am trying to qualify for the champions league 4 of my best players decide to hand in a transfer request, simply because I didnt get rid of my reserve keeper in the transfer window. The guy receives a hefty paycheck with a long contract, I cant just release him ... the board would have my head. I tried offering him for free a thousand times, but noone wants the guy.

Will those players perhaps reconsider? their morale is now permanently low and all contracts will expire .... so I ll just have to let them go. I think I might start a new game, too bad ... was actually having fun.

Sorry for bumping this, I am nearing the january transfer window. I deared to actually realease him on a free, the unwanted player .. it costed me 3 million euro. But I really want to keep those 4 players ... sorry to bump this thread.

Lesson for future: don't keep reserve keepers on expensive long-term contracts!

I agree, strange feature in the first place. And it occurs far too often in the game.

I have actually never heard of a player wanting to leave a proffessional club because he didnt like another player. Thats a bit what being a professional is all about isnt it?

Well, I have to be honest, in holland we had the Paul Matthijs - Regillio Vrede incident at FC Groningen (season 03/04?) after which Vrede was released, but apart from that one?

Offer him for loan using "offer to clubs" and pay his wages. Maybe somebody will take him off yoru hands for a while
