Ackter Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Does this work for anyone else? Whenever I choose it, I just get a list of 5 clubs like you would if you asked the board. Is it something I'm missing or is it not working? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiitastic Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 if you have been at the club for a fair while the board asks you what type of feeder club you would like, eg - send players on loan for work permit, merchandising sales and a few other options. after a while they come back with 5 relivant clubs you can then pick from according to what type of feeder club you requested. If you are managing in England then if you are after a boost in Merchandising sales, they will come back with either/and clubs in asia and/or usa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackter Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 That's how regular choosing works. When you choose one yourself, you used to go to the club page and recommend them - any club in the world. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiitastic Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 personally I have never seen in the game the board giving you the ability to choose any club in the world right off the bat, they usually ask you what type of feeder club you want, never seen anything better than that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackter Posted April 25, 2011 Author Share Posted April 25, 2011 Then it's probably broken :/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
R0ca Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 It is broken i think Ackter, looking forward to it being fixed in FM2012. Hopefully they can fix the effectiveness of corners too! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coentrao Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Yes it seems to be broken, you always get the list regardless of saying that you want to choose the club or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabio MVP Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 In FM 10 it seemed to work unlike in FM 11. Or they changed the system which I highly doubt, so most probs bug. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazaru5 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 In '09 whenever i picked a specific club as a feeder the board were never able to complete the hook-up for whatever reason... now when I ask for feeder clubs I just let the board search and pick from their choices..

Sheva Elite Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Yeah the feaure it 100% broken. It was broken in FM10 too althogh at least then you could actually click on a club and the club would pretend to forge a link wiht them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiggusD Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 The feeder club feature is completely broken yes. I have tried to forge a link with another club twice a season (or as many times as allowed) for four years now and Las Palmas has still not managed to find a suitable club. Maybe they tried to fix the ease with which managers could create links with other clubs in FM10, and instead just broke the whole thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBKalle Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 I don't remember ever getting a recommendation accepted... Still I'd like to have at least a say on the country/area of the future feeder club... It's fine having the option to choose a lower-league feeder club, or a commercial parner etc, but I'd really wish the board could allow us to be a bit more specific/selective. Last time I asked for a EU-zone feeder club for my Chelsea side, all the board was able to come back were three second-rate clubs from Serbia and Croatia, filled with greyed-out players. A feeder club should be useful, and should make a loan deal viable and advantageous for both parts... A club with only grey players that will probably play just 3 friendlies a season in as good as having no feeder club at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
milnerpoint Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 i think they took out the option of choosing any club you wanted because people could never get it to work, it became pointless. I personally never got a single club in FM10 i chose, so i gave up and just let the board give me a list and i choose from there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafuge Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 I had it working on FM2010, managed to get myself a rather nice list of affiliates: Affiliates 1 Affiliates 2 I don't think I've tried with FM2011 as I've not really had the opportunity.

hejh0pp Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 It's definitely broken in FM11. My PSG team has worldwide reputation and is ranked as the top team in Europe and everytime I ask the board for a feeder team to whom I can send players, they always respond with non-professional teams Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiggusD Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 i think they took out the option of choosing any club you wanted because people could never get it to work, it became pointless. I personally never got a single club in FM10 i chose, so i gave up and just let the board give me a list and i choose from there. I actually managed to make it work, once. In FM10. But back then it was easy to build a very good club network, now it is impossible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidb001 Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 i cant remember which club i was (possible Arsenal or maybe Spurs) but at the start i already had links in the US and Hongkong,few seasons down the road when i asked the board to search for a feeder club to enhance the clubs rep/merchandise they gave me the option of a few Japanesse teams, so i picked one only to find that once i had done that they cancelled the link with my hongkong club, didnt even get new event abouts it,think this must bea glitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormenDK Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 In FM10 it worked just fine for me .. and I even managed Bath City in the BSS. I never had any problems finding a feeder club. In FM11, I have not had much luck with either feeder clubs or parent clubs. But I haven't tried out 11.3 yet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
