Interested - Manger.

[dave byrd]

I noticed on the game this year that there is an 'interested' panel on our manager profiles. Has anyone noticed or not whether they have any other clubs interested them?

[Charlesbeams]

this was one of the first things i noticed, not actually seen any teams in it though, but its good to see

[TomHAVFC]

Hadn't noticed it but it's a good addition.

[dave byrd]

Just wondering if it actually works as i've looked at loads of managers in my game and it says none on every single one..

[SilentBob]

Well i'm not sure if it works properly, but if it does it's a brilliant addition.

Well it would be if it worked!

[Charlesbeams]

i had a look through some managers without clubs, and theres no teams in them, hmmm

[SilentBob]

well, chances are you'd have to have clubs without managers, not managers without clubs for a club to be interested in a manager.

Well yeah but if he is high profile? Rijkaard been unemployed since i started my game and now i'm in Feb 2010. He still has no job and nobody interested. Surely someone would want him?

I fear though that he'll remain on the dole for years. In FM2008 Jose Mourinho stayed unemployed throughout my entire game and i played till 2028! FM has issues with managers not getting jobs in every single version. I report this every year but nexer ever fixed.

True enough, I'm going to wait until the next time I see a manager get sacked and I get the news item listing 3 or 4 managers who are likely to take over and then check their interested slots and see if it lists any clubs.

Yeah t'was what i was thinking too. That should then show if it does work.

[SilentBob]

and it does work ,tell me how to upload a screenie if you don't believe me and i will

Do believe you but would like to see! Sure you can find out how to upload a screen shot!

[SilentBob]

I can't find out how too? I press print screen but it doesn't allow me to paste to paint. Anywho, if you want me too, you are going to have to tell me how too. If not, you'll have to find it on your own game.

[dave byrd]

you have to open up paint (in accessories on your PC) and paste it in there.

[SilentBob]

I've tried and can't get it to work. Anyway, cba to try any longer. Just wait until you see someone get sacked and check the news item and then check the profile of one of the potential managers.

Was just thinking the other day that this would be a good addition, glad to see it added.

[dave byrd]

Has anyone seen this feature actually working?

[IWWROCKS]

Yep, I had Inter interested during my 2nd season. Sure enough a few days later they offer me a 4 year contract which I reject. There was also something about it on the transfer rumours page.

Brilliant. Who were you with when they offered you the job?

[IWWROCKS]

I was with Liverpool and had just signed a 4 year deal at 90k/w with them so Inter we're willing to pay some componsation.

EDIT: Also worth noting. I received an email about Sami Hyypia being looked at by Ipswich to be there manager. It was also in the rumours section and when looking at his profile I noticed it then too.

[aragorn49]

Ive had Arsenal, MU and Chelsea all offer me a contract and appear in that box just prior too the offer - They all had just lost their previous managers...

Also noted is the above comment about them not finding jobs...

Jose Murinho (sp?) Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsen Wegner all currently been without jobs for two seasons... Maybe SAF I can understand... But the other two?

Yeah like i was saying every version seems to suffer from managers just staying unemployed for years and years.....

Would that not make it hard for players who are unemployed! A club would surely go for an unemployed Jose Mourinho than a Players manager! Well i'd imagine so anyway :\

eh? Not quite sure what your trying to say there?

[Ryknow]

I have seen it but on an world class unemployed assman, just a team that was interested in getting him on board.
Cool feature
