Lillywhite Dean Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 In my career managing in League 2, Wrexham were able to sign 35 year old Frank Lampard on £2,900 per week. I know that had I known of Lampard's availability, there's no way £2,900 would be enough to secure his services. Could this be considered a bug in the game?

rafafloripa Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Yes, and it has been mentioned a lot of times around here. In my first season in the BSS, Farnborough managed to sign El-Hadji Diouf on a free Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI Staff Marc Vaughan Posted April 19, 2012 SI Staff Share Posted April 19, 2012 I'm tuning the transfer engine at the moment as sometimes players available on a free do drop down the divisions too quickly, although its arguable in most cases as to whether its realistic or not, in Lampards case I'd expect him to retire when he stops playing at the top level - but thats not always the case .... Vincente signing for Brighton in real-life for instance would be considered a 'bug' by a lot of people if it had happened in the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafafloripa Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Let's say that there are too many Vicentes in FMH right now Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tafkans Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I had a weird one recently, during the September free transfer window I noticed that Kevin Phillips had no club and was listed as retiring at the end of the season. I tried to sign him until the end of the season, but on the contract negotiations screen he said that he didn't want to sign for anybody when he was so close to his planned retirement date. Surely somebody who's unattached and unwilling to join a club has already retired?!? (Or was he just trying to let me down gently...) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SI Staff Alari Naylor Posted April 19, 2012 SI Staff Share Posted April 19, 2012 The strange free agent transfers are something we've been aware of for a while, hopefully we'll get a fix in for it soon as it's really been bugging me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
manufan2010 Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 Yes, and it has been mentioned a lot of times around here. In my first season in the BSS, Farnborough managed to sign El-Hadji Diouf on a free Farnborough seem to have the magic touch. In my first season at dorchester, even though I won the league and they were relegated, sol campbell and stuart parnaby both joined them. Im sure they got James McFadden and Marcus Hahnemann. But this does really annoy me. Their value drops immensley and suddenly casillas and pepe have signed for burnley. Surley someone like casillas would be loyal and stay at madrid to reitirement?

thebugel Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 In a previous game i was Sunderland and Man Utd transfer listed Rooney for 1.5m (aged 32). He kept rejecting my contract offer of £40,000 pw then to my suprise signed for Peterborough in the championship for £2,700 pw. I bidded £1m for him the day he joined them, bid was accepted and i signed him on a £5,000 pw contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that needs to be fixed, Someone signed for a club after rejecting me yet I signed him a few days later.

It shouldn't let you sign a player that has just signed for a different club I disagree ... well sort of o) Clive Allen signing for Palace a few months after signing for Arsenal is my example ... so this does happen .. sort of Non league club sells player to a League 1 club Week later a Premiership club bids for the same player and buys him Tidy little profit for the League 1 club for only 7 days work You are right that this shouldn't happen often but this should depend on the size of the clubs involved (buying and selling) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
8ball Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Think I may have one to stump you all. Messi signs pre contract in April for fulham aged 28.
