The wage has something to do with the likelyhood of you getting the sack (a higher paid manager is less likely) but other than that it has no use and in my opinion it should stay like that - otherwise it will enf up like Fifa Manager.

SSGTroyer Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Your contract is guarenteed, just like a player's.. So, if the board wants to sack you, they'll have to buy out the rest of your contract. Thus, the more you get paid, the more hesitant the board will be to give you the heave-ho....

forzautd Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 just adds a touch more realism doesnt it. plus you can guage how much a team wants you and your rating amongst other clubs by how much you are offered.

Pad Lal Posted December 9, 2008 Author Share Posted December 9, 2008 firstly if i ever do so bad in a season where im under pressure ill probably just resign anyway and secondly i dont really want a flash car its just i like to keep my wage bill as low as possible and if 60k a week is going nowhere i wanna cut that out and spend it on another top quality player, 60k a week for a year is over 3 mil and i could buy a couple of youngsters for that and finaly dont even mention fifa manager on the forums because fm is soooooooooo much better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

manutdthereds Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Something else along the line of the useless stats for the 'player'. On the manager personal screen, it has International Career...

grep Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 I would donate the manager salary to the payroll budget, it would be much more wise IMO. But I am not allowed, paradox !

Harryseaess Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 This has been discussed many times and the idea always gets destoryed. It won't be added into Football Manager, if it was then it would end up like The Sims or Fifa Manager... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

santy001 Posted December 9, 2008 Share Posted December 9, 2008 Only thing that would be nice is the option to donate perhaps, to your favoured club if they go through hard times. The likes of Lineker have done it, even though he isn't a manager. But lets face it, in all reality if you did have a spare 100k and it meant nothing to you, and the team you've followed all your life needed 100k to avoid administration and keep afloat, 99.9% of people would do it, and that is realistic lol. Obviously I don't want it to go to the gimmicky end, but perhaps just a little feature where the fans of your favourite team call upon you if they're in trouble to try and help them out.

Pad Lal Posted December 9, 2008 Author Share Posted December 9, 2008 okay so the idea of buying things like cars and houses is a no go but how about money to spend on getting your coaching badges or attending lectures to increase your own coaching stats, how about that for a slice of fried gold?
