nev147 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 LOL A bit drastic! That's going to give his squad a big confidence boost! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrustking56 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 I sold all my worc city squad after getting promoted to the bsp XD Needless to say it didn't end well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareth Hale Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 He's got balls. In the game it would probably make things worse and I reckon the same will happen to Micky Adams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Shanahan Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 You hear about it every so often IRL, but funnily enough (well not really) it rarely works. It's usually done by managers who are big on the talk but not very big on the action, nor talented either for that mattter. Most of the time it will be counter productive. To do it in game jst control+left click your whole squad and right click and set transfer status, but don't expect to sell too many before you're sacked for results getting worse.

stevie_G_32201 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 i did this as an experiment on 08. i sold the entire liverpool squad to see how much i could raise. i kept carragher, gerrard and torres (didnt have the heart to sell those 3) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kezmanjacks Posted September 27, 2009 Author Share Posted September 27, 2009 lol Maybe it could be a new feature in FM2010 under team talk. Instead of dissapointing or terrible....... you're all transfer listed!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevie_G_32201 Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 i think it was around 160m Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moaner Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 I've always wondered how real managers know who is and isn't transfer listed. Where is the list kept? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JB Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 Tend to do this with dafuges challenge, players are only really good for me for one season so get rid of them and get new faces in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heelswxman Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I've always wondered how real managers know who is and isn't transfer listed. Where is the list kept? I'm sure there is a message board out there similar to this where coaches start threads with the players whom they are listing. Some managers like Rafa even start threads like, "Looking for -9 or -10 Spanish players only!". I also imagine that Platini is the site admin.

jayahr Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 He's got balls. In the game it would probably make things worse and I reckon the same will happen to Micky Adams. Absolutely seconded. Nice PR thing but won't help the team at all if carried out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir_Liam Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 I respect Micky Adams for the good job he did in getting Leicester promoted whilst in administration, but this is a stupid thing to do, and will just demoralise the squad. Such strong public criticism of the players isn't good management, and sadly shows why Adams hasn't managed to fulful the early promise he showed as a manager.

baker.simon Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Why has he transfer listed them? They lost 3-1 at Notts County. I dont think thats any great shakes tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

englandmanager Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 i transfer listed all but 2 of my 1st team squad after promotion to the championship as leeds manager we ended up getting to 7th position with only beckford and delph part of the league 1 promotion team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oTRUTHo Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 every time i start a new game "rangers" i sell everyone "exeptions hear & there" the result is usaly a runaway rangers that are on par with premiership clubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
drunkpunk Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Have sort of done this when playing FM08. Got beat 7-1 in a champions league final against Man U and just decided to transfer list all the players who played in the match. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackter Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Have definitly done this. I also transfer list people for getting stupid red cards. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakobx Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Heh...i always do that when i start a new game. Most players in BSN/BSS are a bit crap and i know im able to find much better players for free. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty_Manager Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 i was rotherham and got them promoted two season running buying and selling about 20 players each season. Made a hefty 5 mill profit though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madek Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Seriously though, is there actually a transfer list? No, there is no actual "list" of players maintained anywhere. It's more just one of those football terms that don't actually make sense. Like the Champions League: not just for champions and not actually a league.

kezmanjacks Posted September 28, 2009 Author Share Posted September 28, 2009 Thats true i presume in real life you would get your personal assistant to email or fax all the clubs in the leagues you are interested in buying from???? Seeing as im not a real life manager i cant confirm this lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin_ellis_19 Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 LOL A bit drastic! That's going to give his squad a big confidence boost! That should get him several wins in a row! I've sometimes wanted to do it but not the whole team, usually when i lose a match when i should of easily won because someone got a red card or had a mare (rating of 4.0 maybe) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Shanahan Posted September 28, 2009 Share Posted September 28, 2009 Anyway I reckon the transfer listing of players is more in the nature of a gimmick than a real action, as how often do you see a manager tranfer listing all his players and a few weeks later deals being done for even 3 or 4 of the players.
