paulmotion Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Just signed Ched Evans on a free for Hearts and his status is 'unavailable' so I cannot pick him. Something clicked in my brain about this guy and a quick google search came up with a conviction of rape! What the hell do I do now - offered him £3k per week and I cannot play him.....aaaahhhhhh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulmotion Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 is that my only option? I'll lose a hell of a lot on compensation and my club can't afford it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
postal postie Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 does it say when he comes back? you can either wait for then or see if he'll accept mutual termination, which could be less that outright sacking him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulmotion Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 ive looked everywhere but I cant find out where it says he should be back....can anyone point me in the right direction? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
metal_guitarist Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 He got jailed for 5 years, and if you're using the WeeGiE update, I know I set him as unavailable for 5 seasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulmotion Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 I'm using the LFC Marshall update from FM Base, I think thats what may have happened. Looks like mutual termination is me best bet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulmotion Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 He won't accept a mutual termination and releasing him on a free will cost me £600,000. What a nightmare, can anyone suggest a way to get shot of him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRL88 Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 Well no one will be interested in signing him due to his unavailability so your only way is to release him or else you will have to put up with him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryknow Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 He won't accept a mutual termination and releasing him on a free will cost me £600,000. What a nightmare, can anyone suggest a way to get shot of him? Try and get him to hate you so then he will want to leave. Could result in him agreeing to leave without compensation. If not, reload an alternative save? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like mutual termination is me best bet Pretty sure LFC set him the same way. Short of making him hate you so much he wants to leave you can only terminate. On the other hand, isolating him could have an adverse affect on the rest of the squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welshace Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 release him... sack him... let him rot in the reserves... or use a 3rd party tool to make him available again... or reload save Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padders Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Try and get him to hate you so then he will want to leave. Could result in him agreeing to leave without compensation. If not, reload an alternative save? Change his squad status to not needed List him for free Move him to Reserves squad Fine him 2 weeks wages Then try mutual termination The only thing you have to worry about is the morale of the rest of the squad Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
QWERTYOP Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Change his squad status to not neededList him for free Move him to Reserves squad Fine him 2 weeks wages Then try mutual termination The only thing you have to worry about is the morale of the rest of the squad But you CAN'T fine people for no reason any more. I wish you could - would make it as easy as it is in real life to sell somebody who you don't want. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another note, always have a 3 rolling save. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

haz32 Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 I can't help thinking he should have just been removed from the game considering what happened. I doubt he'll be in the official FM13 database. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

QWERTYOP Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Oh didn't know that, to be honest I don't fine players for no reason so didn't know it had been removed You used to be able to. Now you can only fine a player when the game sees fit. Which I personally think is b*****ks By the way, I was at Sheff Utd in my last save and he could play no problem. So I don't know why he's unavailable on some people's games?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without the inclusion of the PFA it isn't really fair to include things like unwarranted fines in my opinion. As for the question, he will only be unavailable for people using third party databases that have up to date transfers and data. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daylight Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 I would just keep him. The British justice system will make sure he is released in time for your next season. On another note did he have an agent or did you have to jump in the car and go to the jail to get his John Hancock? On a more serious note I would not try to get him to hate you as there is a good chance you will upset the rest of the squad. Stick him in the reserves and wait for him to come to you,I take it you signed him as a first team member or key player so it wont take long before he gets upset at getting no games and then tell him he is not in your plans. After that start offering him a mutual consent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that start offering him a mutual consent. OK, I'll try sticking him in the reserves and see what happens. Dont want to offer on a free as it'll cost me a fortune around £600,000. Can't believe I signed him - should have known it was too good to be true! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lower Leagues Rule Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 To make you feel a little better, I signed Csaba Ponczok in Hungary, then found out he had a season long ban for Matchfixing (In the actual database), I had hired him on a three year contract, I was gutted, but when he came back it was straight into my team 78 apps, 18 goals & 27 assists later and I was happy. It has taught me to look at profile screens before every signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommonufc Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 He got jailed for 5 years, and if you're using the WeeGiE update, I know I set him as unavailable for 5 seasons.
