fatboyjohnmulhern Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 typical celtic fan, what is up with your hatred towards him and mcmanus, so what they are crap, celtic have best defence in the league so that must say something! the reason why i am assuming you just hate him like most celtic fans and this is why your trying to sell him because on that game he is quite good, however, just let him rot in reserves or release him if u hate him that much Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

x42bn6 Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 If he won't agree with anyone else's contracts he'll probably simply stay with you until his contract expires. I find that as players play less they become more desperate for a transfer so maybe after the window shuts he'll start whinging and will finally accept another offer. But do train him because if his attributes go down, his ego remains the same and he'll be even less likely to accept offers that come because they're not good enough for his reputation but his ability has gone down a notch. If you're desperate, go sign a player and then ensure he's part of the deal. You'll waste a bit of money but you wanted to get rid of him, right?

fatboyjohnmulhern Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 get rid of someone else mate, he is good, mcgeady = crap on that game, always has and unless he moves to england he always will, just the way it is. However, boruc is overrateed on that game, but he still one of the best Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
backpackant Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 You just have to be patient. He'll get annoyed without competitive football. However, if you don't train him he'll get rubbish and no one will bid for him. Give him a couple of months in the reserves, then when you have an easy cup match or something, transfer list him and put him in the squad. I find about 75-90% of the time, he gets a WNT symbol next to him, meaning someone will probably watch him play the cup game. There's some risk as his morale might be dipping but if it's against a rubbish team you should be okay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonic Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 I presume you already have him Transfer listed, but have you set his squad status to Not Needed by Club? I found this often gets the message across. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a problem with Caldwell irl. I think your response to the op was way over the top. Marcybhoy has his own reasons for selling Caldwell however as it's his game and therefore his reasoning is the only reasoning that counts any reason to sell Caldwell is acceptable. In terms of ggetting rid of caldwell I have the same problem, I usually have to wait until his contract expires. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to fine players to force them out and also if they requested transfers at stupid times (the day after the transfer window closes for instance) but no, now I need a good reason!

Skunner Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 I'm not sure on your opinion on FMM, but i'd suggest using it, changing his contract to anytime in the past and then you'll be able to release him on a free without losing money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
