eastley Posted April 22, 2012 Author Share Posted April 22, 2012 It is 2036... So far bit into the game.. I am just laughing at the Transfer and Wage budget.. Could decrease that wage budget by 1 Million and it will increase the Transfer to 800,000,000, huge.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 All that money yet they are only willing to offer you £37,500 a week, more evidence of slightly broken manager wages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Whippy Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Plus, you know managing Real will be repetitive and boring compared to managing Charlton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
!.m.! Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 All that money yet they are only willing to offer you £37,500 a week, more evidence of slightly broken manager wages. Not necessarily he has yet to negotiate the deal, to increase pay. They are probably offering him more than he gets paid at Charlton, so why go higher? Even when you're managing a rich club you want to get players on the cheapest contracts, not overpaying because you can. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when you're managing a rich club you want to get players on the cheapest contracts, not overpaying because you can. The OP already replied to this. True..I declined it anyway, my cash strapped Charlton side pays better!! There is a bug with manager wages, in my game only 14 managers are earning more than £30,000 a week in 2033 & the current Real Madrid manager is on £20,000 a week. My recent contract negotiations were a joke, I have turned Leipzig into the highest coefficient ranked club in Europe with 2 Europa League & 2 Champions League finals in the last 5 years. 4 straight Bundesliga titles, we have a cash balance of over £100m in the bank & I have recently been offered jobs at AC Milan, Roma & Real Madrid (all equally poorly paid) yet the board initially offered zero wage increase for a contract extension & would only negotiate an increase from £24,000 to £24,500 a week.

eastley Posted April 23, 2012 Author Share Posted April 23, 2012 So what did you achieve to get the offer? Did you apply for it? No mate, stuck with Charlton in the end. Currently unbeaten in the EPL so all good.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
achilles-the-victorious Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 My bank balance for Juventus in 2036 is some $800m (USD). They haven't allocated it all to me for transfers, but more than I can spend ($200m), thats for sure! Even though I have the big bank balance I like my outgoing transfers to finance my incoming ones. I also got a job offer from Lazio, who have been taken over by a tycoon a couple seasons back, when managing Sevilla, but the problem is, I am managing Juventus simultaneously. So I would be my own biggest rival, and manage the top two teams in one league? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayahr Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I would still be interested in knowing what success you had with Charlton (or at other clubs before) before you got the Real offer. And whether they just approached you or if you applied before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And whether they just approached you or if you applied before. Offer was midway through my second season at Charlton, I had already managed Liverpool and West Ham to over a dozen titles.. With Charlton, at time of offer, I was 2nd-3rd I think, in EPL.. Was predicted to struggle with Charlton first season, got 6th I think, second season in the end I finished 3rd. Won the next season, money started rolling in, and now I have taken the last 2 seasons.... Been 2 years since i lost a Premier Division Match. I only lost one ECC match and the League Cup Finals last season.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastley Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 u silly we all know manager salary doesn't mean anything in FM Your manager salary comes out of the clubs monthly salary right? So the less you take, the more you have for players??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 u silly we all know manager salary doesn't mean anything in FM It increases job security, probably not an issue when the potential employer has a £1/2bn transfer budget. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
omaroo Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 How on earth do some players get such a big transfer budget, is it because people are in a long term game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougyMarshall Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 How on earth do some players get such a big transfer budget, is it because people are in a long term game. Yes. I am on £70m budget at Rangers in 2023 when you normally start with feck all and heavily in debt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smurf Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 I can conquer the world on a €10m budget. I would have a field day with €600m. Usually takes me 4 seasons to build the best team in the world, with any club in any top division. I can do it with a lower division team, depending on the leauge, but starting at the bottom most league I can get to the top of any leauges in about 10 seasons. €600m, I'd just have a team that would be untouchable. And within 2 seasons I'd be bored. Delighted you turned it down and kept with the challenge of Charlton The game really needs to get more realistic with transfer budgets and how easy it is to build a world beating team.
