Howej004 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 I have set up the staff responsibilities correctly but for some reason when teams bid for players who aren't transfer listed it still gives me the option to accept or reject it when that should be joe kinnears job. How can i fix this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemeures Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Sorry for having to ask, but what is the joe Kinnear challenge? For the problem in a general situation if your staff aren't doing as they are asked check the bugs page, see if it has been reported or any fixes given?

Howej004 Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 Not sure if im allowed to link to another forum but google it. Basically you set all your staff responsibilities to Joe Kinnear and let him do everything, so alls you do is the matches. It's pretty fun even though i can't get it to work properly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemeures Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I think I will pass on that, I have enough trouble with staff doing what they want as it is lol Hope you get it sorted out anyways mate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainlayzee Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Hang on, so what are you doing? Literally just playing the game on a Saturday? Surely the game isn't clever enough to realise that the bad signings/high wages or whatever you DOF creates aren't your fault? Didn't someone else try this and find that their DOF was putting players on 40k p/w who could of been on 15k? It's an interesting game, but I can see it becoming boring very quickly.

cruyff14 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Isn't there an option that says finalise signings in the options that needs to be changed to Joe Kinnear Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimbobWWFC Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Isn't there an option that says finalise signings in the options that needs to be changed to Joe Kinnear Yes but he mentioned about accepting or rejecting a transfer offer in the first place, before it reaches the finalisation stage Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruyff14 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Think they'll sign players only then and you still have to choose who to get rid of I guess so only thing to do is chuck them in the unwanted list and Joe will do the rest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainlayzee Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 How does the unwanted list work? I only noticed it recently. I presume it is pretty self explanatory, but just to confirm, if I stick players on it do they have a reaction to it and does it simply mean they are open to offers from others clubs? I don't see the difference between the unwanted list and offering a player to clubs instead Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimbobWWFC Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 If a player is on the unwanted list, it indicates to your DoF that you want to sell the player. Your DoF should then begin the process of selling him for a set value (if you decided the parameters), offering him out to clubs and negotiating transfer values.

Plainlayzee Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Save money, don't have a DOF and negotiate yourself. Simple :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimbobWWFC Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 But isn't the whole point of the Joe Kinnear challenge for the DoF to do as much as possible? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plainlayzee Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 But isn't the whole point of the Joe Kinnear challenge for the DoF to do as much as possible? Sorry I am missing the 'challenge' aspect here. What is the challenge part? The DOF doesn't work very well in FM from my experiences, so surely having a DOF who is overspending/selling your players cheaply isn't exactly a challenge, just irritating. I very much doubt the media interaction will pick up the fact that your not handling transfer activities and if results go badly you will still get sacked...missing the point completely here aren't I?

JimbobWWFC Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 You're not missing the point, you get it. I'm not saying I agree with it; just that THAT is the point of the challenge. I've never claimed to be a fan of the challenge; I was merely answering questions Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've never claimed to be a fan of the challenge; I was merely answering questions Sorry that may have come across as a bit aggressive which it wasn't meant to be. I just don't see why someone has made a challenge which isn't really a challenge. The game doesn't fully understand the role of the DOF for me. Fair enough if the press would ask questions about the DOF signing players for you / selling your stars or whatever. But one of the main parts of this game is signing/selling players and handling contracts etc. Why play the game just to purely pick the team once a week, I don't see the fun?
