I had a similar topic before. Still struggling to understand how the reputation rating work. I upload another case of my player wanting to leave during January transfer windows. Of course I didn't allow it to happen. Then my team beat PSG in quarter final Champion League. And their player has urged my player to join them to enhace his career. I just found this really funny.. For Information, I've won the last three Champion League in a row.

I was wondering what is my current reputation. Here is a my manager's brief intro: Manages Bharat FC (1.5 star rated) in Indian National League. Has won two Indian Durand Cup (one as United Province FC and other as Bharat FC) Has won the Indian confederation cup once (as Bharat FC) Has won the Asian Champions League (as Bharat FC) Runner up in Indian Durand Cup (as Bharat FC) By the way I am playing fm16

Hi, I'm managing in Northern Ireland at the moment and I'm struggling to get my reputation above 1 star. What is the best way to do this? I know reputation is gained by cup and league wins but I doubt NI cups/leagues will get me much rep. That just leaves the Europa League/Champions League and I don't think I'll have much of a chance of winning them! Do you get big rep gains for playing in the group stages of these competitions?

*** Disclaimer*** First and foremost as always, I unfortunately feel the need to inform anybody that reads this that this isn't a rant or a flaming post. All of my posts are meant to foster discussion. Sometimes, sadly the community turns against one another. Secondly, since I discovered FM, I've had nothing but success at it... The first few versions I lucked into it and everything past that has been about applying real world tactics within the confines of the definitions of Football Manager. I would presume that it's wide spread knowledge that club and manager reputation is considered to be broken by most users. A user can win league, cup, and Champions League title year after year only to see their reputation barely increase and in some cases even drop. This has been observed by users playing in leagues with low reputations as well as users playing in leagues such as the EPL. The reason that this is an issue for most players is that reputation has been programmed such a far-reaching impact on the game. It affects sponsorship money, the level of player you're able to attract, transfer and contract fees (incoming and outgoing), etc. This is effectively shown here Football Manager Reputation Experiment . In this three part experiment, the user gives non-league side Halifax the maximum reputation in the game while dropping Arsenal's reputation to the lowest possible. An overview of the impact is that Arsenal were forced to sell a large majority of their starting players during the first three transfer windows while being unable to bring any player in. Over the course of four seasons they became a Euro Cup tier side. Meanwhile, Halifax stormed up the leagues and made a fair amount of money while doing it. But what's particularly of note for my point is that in four years, Arsenal went from a reputation of 1 (the lowest you can possibly have) to about 5500 (about three stars). That's a massive jump in a relatively short amount of time for a side that lost most of it's well-known players, staff, and only qualified for the Euro Cup here and there. I say massive relative to how a user-controlled team's reputation seems to work. Again, despite user's signing or developing some of the world's most renowned players, winning the biggest competitions in successive years, taking on big names in pre-season setups, the reputation never jumps that quickly in that amount of time. So the question becomes about if there are mechanics in play to artificially influence a user-controlled team's reputation. It would seem that there's a strong possibility that this is true and it would make sense. Many users become bored after they feel that they can buy any regen and basically plug and play. So it would make sense that if users can achieve unrealistic success with minnow clubs, perhaps the developers felt that having a more "realistic" reputation system would lead to a degraded challenge and experience. Basically, by having the AI team's reputation be more dynamic, it allows for a continued and varied challenge for the user over the course of a save. What are your thoughts on this?

So I've noticed something unusual happening with the reputation system on the forum. The "past leaders" tab under the "leaderboard" section does not match who actually got the most reputation on that day. Here's the first example, for the date March 27: This is what appears under the past leaders tab for the date. But this is what appears when you actually click on the date and see who has the most reputation. Note that the dropdown on the right shows that this is definitely the same date as the first screenshot. Another example, from March 21: You can see that even the number of points from arenaross is less on the "past leaders" than what it actually was. Not to mention that the leader, who had over 30 on the day, does not appear at all. I hope I can get an explanation for why this is happening, and if it's indeed a bug in the forum software, I hope it can be corrected and the "days won" stat can be applied properly to those who actually had the most points. Cheers.

Are the number of slots per confederation for the World cup dynamic?

Hi, I think the number of reputations can be given per day is too stricted especially when the new game is considered. There will be (hopefully) lots of team & player reviews, tactic analysis, graphics stuff, etc. It may be increased or even removed. Up to you, but I think needs a revamp. Cheers.

Hi.. firstly i want to confirm that I've installed the latest update but still after winning all the games in month i do not get manager of the month award and same for my player who have scored 8 goals in 4 matches with 2 assist. also after winning two back to back promotion I still have my reputation as a regional manager.

Hi Im playing a Spanish game and started as an 'unknown' manager. Im now in season 4 having started unemployed (no idea if that makes a difference) and taken Gernika from League 2B into a mid table La Liga team, however my manager rating is still stuck on 'obscure' Not sure how to go about raising this (I'm making profit from transfer, developing youth, underspending on wages etc etc) or whether it's a glitch within the system Attached a screenshot

So, I bought the game via Play Store yesterday, and started playing, I picked up Sintrense (Portuguese 3rd Division) and Started playing, I Won the promotion final(It's like winning the title) with only 1 defeat, and over 100 goals scored although being knocked out in 3rd Round Portugal Cup Next Season I felt the team was good enough for the 2nd tier, and won't need my help to go up So I Saw some clubs which had gained promotion to the 3rd tier from the 4th Keep in mind my Rep at the start was Normal(Local) and in game my Rep is Regional in the new season I Applied to a Clubs in my country, all of them which were 1st, 2nd, 3rd and recently promoted 3rd division teams and STILL no one has picked up a contract with me What can I do? I tried starting with Real Madrid and just playing and winning to see if I managed to get a contract in a lower div My Rep was then Continental and still I applied to 3rd division clubs AND STILL no one gives me a contract It's just anoying
