Blanchflower1 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 In the beginning of the game Chelsea is worth 2 Billion pounds. But when I increased the revenue for United (just for the sake of experiment) to 2 Billion, they are still not the richest club! I did the same with other teams and some of their financial status shot up! I then increased the VALUE for some players in different teams, and the club's value goes up as well but not all the time. My question is how to make your club the richest (without cheating of course). How does FM 2008 measure the value of your team? Does the value of the players you have count or reputation count as well? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc-gunner Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 on mine chelsea were not worth 2 billion they were valued at 200 million on my game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerry-Atric Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 the value of the players does have a influence,but since when wes Chelsea worth 1billion!!! When you sign big rep players your club value goes up as they bring in merchandise revenue. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
glamdring Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 AS Roma are highest valued in my game at over £400 million so I have no idea how that is calculated! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
backpackant Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Which "United"? If you mean Man Yoo, they have substantial debts of around £750million. That's probably why. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nomis07 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 From what i've seen it seems to take player values, bank balance, facilities, reputation and success into account. I finished 3rd 3 seasons running with Roma and had roughly the ame balance at the end of each season, and had been buying/selling players for similar amounts. My value went up gradually each season.

fmfan08 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Around 2043 I say. Pity you couldn't just pay it off more when you wanted to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
postman123 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 in fm 2009 there should be an option to make repayments yourself on outstaning loans Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thepathtoamen Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 no course thats the chairmans/directors/accountants job and not performed in the role of a manager. otherwise we could just run the whole club under one role. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stomalomalus Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 As its been said before, that wouldnt be management. If there was a time when the board room decided to pay off a bit extra that would be good, but there shouldnt be any input from you Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevonSpurs Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 I know in real life it would be the role of the chairman/directors/accounts to clear the debt that belongs to the club, but surely to have an option to take money out of your transfer budget, or just to allocate funds towards clearing the debt wouldn't be such a bad idea.

GalwayUnitedFC Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 id love to be able to clear it off because after a few seasons you get to much transfer money to spend and it just sits there idle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

james_33 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I would welcome the opportunity to repay debt sooner. As to whether it happens in real life or not - I don't really see that as relevant as in real life the managers aren't involved in negotiating transfers and making offers. As far as I can tell they indicate to the board the players they are interested in and the level of that interest - of course I'm open to correction Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they would get informed as to how much X player would then eat into the club's transfer and wage budget but you're right, most of what the 'Manager' does on FM in terms of transfer and contract negotiations is done by the Board in real life, on the instructions (usually!) of the Manager.

Nomis07 Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 I'd say the managers make a sugegstion to the board on price etc and the board would consult the manager re negotiations etc. I don't see that as being any different to what we do in the game other than us clicking "offer" instead of "suggestion". As for clearing debt, I don't want anything to do with it. Personally I find the fact that we are held accountable for a clubs financial situation in FM ridiculous, considering we have no say in anything other than signings. If I stay within my budget I should keep my job end of. Get rid of the confidence re finances that affects our position at the club and leave the rest of it to the game. If a club starts to go bankrupt it's the boards fault and the board should have to deal with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
atonement Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 EITHER improve AI so that when enough money is available they pay off loans so that interest doesnt cripple your monthly outgoings OR let the manager prompt/ interact / make suggestions on this matter to the board its an unrealistic system at the moment if anything so manager interaction wouldnt be too bad an idea Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wijnand fens Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 41 seasons the manager of the same club: Salernitana (without going on holiday) I start in the serie C, after 2 seasons I promoted to the serie B, then after 6 years I promoted to the serie A, the first 10 years I was a average team in the serie A (finished between the 15th and 7th place) after that I finished every year by the best 5 in the league My victories: 1x winner Serie B 3x winner Italian Cup 2x winner Serie A 1x winner Champions League I'm very very very rich, my club is worth 2,2 billion euro's 250 million euro's transfer money 190 million euro's wages money (I use 100 million) How I became very rich?: search for young stars who want a lower wages than the star players, build a team, after a few years sell your cheap youngers for about 20 to 30 million euro's, keep the wages low. And start all over again. I'm very proud with this save. bye Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
