NepentheZ Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Ok, so last year, I released a kid from my team, even though he had played 3 seasons football for me, and made quite a few first team appearances. I released him due to a poor season, and his contract running out. 8 months on, and he still has no club. Some vitals on his Personal Info Screen read Favoured Clubs : Real London (My Team) Favoured Persennel : NepentheZ (Me) General Happiness : Is looking for a new club With all that in mind, and the fact its been 8 months since I released him, why wont he sign for me again? He's not exactly a "great" or even "good" player, hence the reason he's been 8 months without a club, and I'm pretty sure my club rep is higher than his personal rep. He should be jumping at the chance to sign for me again.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archy-91 Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Sorry if I'm missing something here, but why are you trying to sign him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NepentheZ Posted May 11, 2008 Author Share Posted May 11, 2008 A few reasons. 1. He's an AMR / ST - And I've got a lot of injuries in those positions, so need cover 2. He's from my youth system, and I didn't really want to release him, but cut the dead wood 3. He's scored nearly 50 goals for the club in 4 years, so he's a proven scorer that could chip in when needed for the rest of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neyles Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 I have never been able to re-sign an unattached player whom I've recently released. I don't think it's possible. Would you go back to an employer who's just fired you? That's more or less the situation you describe. Maybe he feels badly treated. I think it's quite natural.

NepentheZ Posted May 11, 2008 Author Share Posted May 11, 2008 I didn't "fire" him though. His contract run out, and he decided to leave. (Not that I would have offered a new one). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aenariel Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Report it to the bugs forum NepentheZ. I know it's a long stretch and they'll probably overlook this, but it is worth the try. Although this isn't a bug per se, it's still unrealistic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neji Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 Im not sure it is unrealistic. He probably doesn't want to come back because you released him. It may be unrealistic that he hasn't got a new club though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason seems to be pretty obvious, in that he was previously released, whether that is reaslistic or not is open to debate - clearly half the people here think so and half don't, so it's not really 'right' or 'wrong'.
