ollie laaaaaaaad Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Welcome! Learning from my first game and then Dan’s im hoping this will me a much improved version of the what i would consider a great version of the game, so here it is and we are almost ready for kick off, please take the time to go through the rules there are one or two that are quite complicated. In case anyone wants to run the db to scout players or what not, i decided to use Chris’ unchanged (CA/PA) update as of the 4th of July so Silva at city and Hodgson at Liverpool and what not Rules 1. You may part with as many managers as you see fit,the financial and moral implications are on you. 2. When sacking a manager you must pay a contract settlement, This will be what remains on his contract. 3. When approaching a new manager, you cannot just hire anyone. I will only accept realistic managerial bids. if your target is without a club, I will check his managerial rep. If it's unrealistic, he will reject you. however any manager on a clubs legends or icons list will be fair game, for example, Cappello to Blackpool is not possible however Daglish to Blackburn is 4. If you want to approach another club about their manager, contact them directly and negotiate a fee. Once both parties have agreed, PM me and I will sort it out. 5. When offering a manager a contract, you will need to set his wages and contract length. If you are the WBA manager and want Alan Pardew from Southampton, you will need to offer- him a greater wage and a contract length. 6. Transfer and wage budgets are decided by you, offer too much and you could see your club in administration. I will not edit the finances on FM at all. I will provide 6 monthly financial reports This lets you keep on top of things. 7. Once the game starts, message your club name and assigned transfer and wage budgets. I will implement your details into the game. 8. If you wish to sack your manager, simply write in the forum and i will then inform you of the costs to do so. If you wish to proceed, I will get it done and announce it on the thread. 9. i Can either offer FM weekly or monthly updates up to the chairman involved 10. I will not provide screenshots of individual players or tactics, sorry but it takes too much effort 11. Now for the tricky one please read with care! Haha I have come up with a concept of the ‘FA’ for our game, this will include myself and two elected board members up too 1st January in the game, then there will be more elections where the head and the two other members will be elected. The board will be allocated between £10-£15m a year, too make decisions on of course the sacking or extension of a managers contract, not only of the main squad but also the under 21’s . This should add an extra dimension to the game 12. concerning transfers. You may make as many transfers chairman to chairman as you see fit however you are limited to one overseas transfer per transfer window and it must be at 3 times the value of that player so for example, Diego Forlan’s value is currently £8m therefore a bid of £24m is required to purchase him. As soon as we have 20 members the game can begin and there will be a 2 day transfer window and this is also the window for the FA selection, everyone will receive one vote, although they cannot vote for themselves! If someone is really intent on being one of the 2 FA chairman spots up for grabs till January then I advise you release a press statement outlining what you wish to do in the role These are the current chairmen of each club; 13. for all free agents an auction style transfer will take place, simply PM your weekly wage bid for a player e.g. 110k a week for Joe Cole and the highest bidder wins Arsenal - Mikel LUFC Aston Villa - TheProblem Birmingham - William Hall Blackburn - lcfc1 Blackpool - Ollie (me) Bolton - Nottingham Forest Chelsea - Galinsky Everton - hitman19ko Fulham - Paulo1985 Liverpool - jordan07 Man City - EvertonianChriss Man Utd - lutontown1991 Newcastle - cplpeters1900 Stoke - paul_dalglish Sunderland - rhyscartwright91 Tottenham - West Brom - Greasy Chip Butty West Ham - Death Ball Wigan - liverbird93 Wolves - the greyham Here are the pre-season budgets and finances of each clubs; anything can be changed except for obviously the balances and loans Arsenal: http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/6830/arsenalfin.png Aston Villa: http://img534.imageshack.us/img534/840/astonvilfin.png Blackburn: http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/364/burnfin.png Birmingham: http://img717.imageshack.us/img717/364/burnfin.png Bolton: http://img84.imageshack.us/img84/305/boltonfin.png Blackpool: http://img85.imageshack.us/img85/6429/poolfin.png Chelsea: http://img266.imageshack.us/img266/2315/chelseafin.png Everton: http://img684.imageshack.us/img684/812/evertonfin.png Fulham: http://img716.imageshack.us/img716/4476/fulhamfin.png Liverpool: http://img215.imageshack.us/img215/383/liverpoolfin.png Man City: http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/7523/mancityfin.png Man U: http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/6945/manufin.png Newcastle: http://img198.imageshack.us/img198/8946/newcastlefin.png Spurs: http://img249.imageshack.us/img249/6459/spursfin.png Stoke: http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/3788/stokefin.png Sunderland: http://img203.imageshack.us/img203/4193/sunderlandfin.png West Brom: http://img441.imageshack.us/img441/9745/westbromfin.png West Ham: http://img576.imageshack.us/img576/1275/westhamfin.png Wigan: http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/5180/wiganfin.png Wolves: http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/8783/wolvesfin.png Here is a list of all the clubs current managers and the cost of sacking them: Wenger - june 2011 - 7.8m O'neil - june 2010 - 1.3m Mcleish - june 2011 - 3.12m Allardyce - june 2011 - 3.12m Holloway - june 2010 - 260k Owen Coyle - june 2012 - 1.56m Ancelotti - june 2012 - 15.6m David Moyes - june 2013 - 10.4m Hodgson - june 2013 - 5.1m Mancini - june 2013 - 13.2m Ferguson - june 2010 - 4.16m Hughton - june 2012 - 3.4m Pulis - june 2010 - 260k Bruce - june 2012 - 7.8m Redknapp - june 2013 - 8m Di Matteo - july 2010 - 218k Grant - july 2014 - 1.87m Martinez - june 2012 - 1.35m Mccarthey - july 2010 - 520k Note: Fulham currently have no manager so there is no cost to remove Ray Lewington as caretaker manager.

Paulo1985 Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Breaking News!! Fulham chairman hopefully Paul Wilmot hopes to tie up the purchase of the club in the next few Hours. Speaking exclusively to BBC sport he had this to say: I hope that the fit and proper persons test comes back positive and i am allowed to complete the takeover of the club. Obviously the outgoing regime have done great work and i hope to emulate there success and propel this club to the heights that the fans deserve.

Kenwyne Jones is the unlucky man. Cartwright was quoted as saying "After speaking to Steve Bruce, we have decided that Sunderland should be able to attract a higher calibre of striker, and as such Kenwyne is no longer needed. If any transfer was to go through however, it would be entirely dependent on Steve or myself being able to find a suitable replacement before the sale."
