Not sure if this is a bug or how it's intended, however I'm managing Curzon Ashton in my quest to take them from the bottom English league to the top (premier League).
It's taken me a long time with a club that has minimal sponsorship money, minimal investment, and the smallest stadium you've ever heard. Therefore the solidarity payment is vital to survive financially.
Upon promotion to the championship, I was delighted that my club will receive around £2 million plus at the end of the season. Especially after accruing £2.7 million of debt over the entire season.
Unfortunately, I achieved promotion to the premier League, and for some reason, never received this money or a single penny.
Surely this cannot be designed like this. Is it a bug? Currently playing FM20. I know it's many versions in the past, but this is how long it takes me to get the worst English team to the premier League!
