TomHAVFC Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 A new chairman will eventually come in. It could take days or it could take months. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chengharry Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 can you still buy/sell player during this period? if so, its not neccessary a bad thing ;-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halfpipey Posted November 6, 2008 Author Share Posted November 6, 2008 can you still buy/sell player during this period? if so, its not neccessary a bad thing ;-) Yes I can still buy and sell players, also they increased my stadium to 75k so don't think its making a difference.

SI Staff Nick Habershon Posted November 6, 2008 SI Staff Share Posted November 6, 2008 Yes, there was a bug with FM08 where the Celtic chairman's retirement was set in the db and it didn't trigger a takeover. This is fixed for FM 09 but didn't make any of the FM08 patches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fart Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 No chairman means you can't get sacked, right? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Franchise 2008 Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Is that actually right Fart? That's something to ponder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandon Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 Yes, there was a bug with FM08 where the Celtic chairman's retirement was set in the db and it didn't trigger a takeover. This is fixed for FM 09 but didn't make any of the FM08 patches. from that i take it that the chairman will retire in FM09 triggering a takeover at celtic at an early stage. ive never managed a team thats been taken over so if i know its imminent at celtic i might give them a try when the new game comes out. just for the extra cash injection it usually brings.

rpashfc Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I was Celtic on FM08 a few weeks back, Brian Quinn (Celtic chairman) retired halfway through the season. But at the end of the season, I got a peice of news saying "Celtic chairman brian quinn has pumped £20m into the Celtic coffers". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LanceFujitsu Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I dont think this bug is specific to Celtic. Ive been chairmanless at Willem II for nigh on 7 seasons and can still do all the normal things such as sell/buy players etc. Dosnt seem to effect the team at all...
