ITFC10 Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 Could anyone tell me what criteria a semi professional team in the Irish Premier Division needs to turn professional, as some clubs in Ireland start the game as professional and I would like to know how to compete. I already have all players and staff signed on professional contracts plus a healthy bank balance, aswell as winning the division previously. Any suggestions please?

Nomis07 Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I have no idea for certain, but reputation and facilities might have something to do with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonic Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 I'm playing as Fingal and we turned Pro as soon as we were promoted so I assumed all clubs did. The only definite way I know of turning Pro is to have £5m in the bank at the start of January, then when the end of season happens you'll go pro. Are you on the latest patch etc.?

juve_curr Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 From experience, there is no guarantee that you will turn pro just because you are in the Prem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jod123 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 From experience, there is no guarantee that you will turn pro just because you are in the Prem. That is true. Just getting promoted to the Prem will not make you turn pro. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonic Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 5 million! Jesus! I'm in charge of Wexford and i've been in the prem for 4 years. Not turned pro yet. Yep, it's a lot of cash. It wasn't a problem in my Fingal game but a game I played in N.I. it took me until about 2016 to go Pro and that was with regular appearances in the Setanta (All-Ireland) Cup to bump up the cash along with some really good sell-on fees.
