scorer2006 Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 ok so ive just started a game with hibs and landed Manchester united as my parent club . i then made offers to loan smalling and bebe, both offers were rejected as they were looking for a fee around 900k per player?!?! i thought the main point of having these parent clubs was to not have to pay wages/fees to loan the players? every player i got for they want some kind of money?! Is this a bug or just another stupid mistake from SI? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this a bug or just another stupid mistake from SI? Um.. doesn't work that way. THey'll send the players they want to. Fact that you are their filler club (which you get paid for), means you get sent the players THEY want to. So no, neither bug nor stupid mistake.

dafuge Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 I'm not sure, how do loans between parent/feeder clubs work in real life? Probably not an easy question to answer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorer2006 Posted December 23, 2010 Author Share Posted December 23, 2010 never used to work that way on any other version of FM this is the first time i have seen this so why implement this in the game now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fact that you are their filler club (which you get paid for), means you get sent the players THEY want to. So no, neither bug nor stupid mistake. I'd agree with that. If you ask your parent club for players you're treated the same as anyone else. You are their feeder club....not the other way around. They tell you how the relationship works out and offer you players of their choosing. That's why they pay you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
milnerpoint Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 never used to work that way on any other version of FM this is the first time i have seen this so why implement this in the game now? it was exactly the same in FM10. As others have said they decide who they want to send you, otherwise your treated like any other team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunlock Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 Hows it working with a feeder club, can they be a parent club them self while being feeder? or is that when they typically cancel the agreement due to board takeovers etc. I haven't played lower leagues for ages, without CL, I get bored Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazaru5 Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 the only difference between you and other clubs is that the parent club's players are more likely to accept a loan move to you... not guaranteed... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pelicanstuff Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Top division clubs loaning to other top division clubs usually incurs a fee. Simple as. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonshine Posted December 24, 2010 Share Posted December 24, 2010 Seeing as it is against FA rules for a home nation to be a feeder/parent of another home nation team, you'll likely never know. I don't know why SI persist with this unrealistic situation.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why SI persist with this unrealistic situation.. I thought the way they were implemented in FM was ok since they are not modelled as nursery clubs who are controlled by the parent club. As a feeder club you get a friendly and maybe a couple of loans but the parent club cannot dictate anything that happens at your club at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
