jacknewthoughts Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 ok just started a new season, set expectations to consolodate within Seria B. That gave me 1.1mil transfer budget and about 45k wage. I budget adjusted to have 53k wage and about 600k transfer. I sign a new contract. My transfer budget is now 41k, so the board are annoyed that i'm spending 49k. And most of that transfer budget is gone. What's happened?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacknewthoughts Posted May 8, 2008 Author Share Posted May 8, 2008 just to prove that, i adjusted budget now to maximum wage, and have 44k wage, 0 transfer! so basically that new contract cost me £1million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelsonmcjones Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 You should have gone to the board and requested a new deal before the season started. I don't know if there's anything you can do about it now... got any deadwood you could offload? Otherwise it's Bosmans for another season... and all the good ones will already have signed for someone else. This could well be a bad luck story... chin up!

jacknewthoughts Posted May 8, 2008 Author Share Posted May 8, 2008 yeah i'm desperately trying to offload some players! the transfer fund isn't that big a deal cos i brought in 6 bosmans, but i'm annoyed that the board are on my back for the wages!

sydfc4ever Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 try re-negotiating some of the players wages. move it from wages to appearance fees, this really helps if you have guys on high salaries who are regularly on your bench, also this doesn't feature in your wages budget (for some reason). it might at least help you bring it down a bit. best of luck!

jacknewthoughts Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 appreciate the suggestions guys, but wanted to know WHY this happened! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomis07 Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Just like when you take over a club at the start of the game, the board will have evaluated your position and the club direction etc. So when you signed a new contract they will have re-evaluated the situation and may have decided that the changes needed to be made to budgets etc. Have their aspirations changed at all? Perhaps because you only had a year left on your contract they offered you more money to play with so as you would stay, since you have committed yourself to the club for 3 years they feel that there is plenty of time for you to do the business and so you don't need as big a budget.

jacknewthoughts Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 hmmm well i had 1 year left on the contract and only signed a 1 year contract to make the board and fans happy so i don't think it's that... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neji Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Maybe they were lying to get you to sign up again? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
