calvinj93 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 i decided to do what someone suggested and go on holiday for 5 years and then take over a team. i did that and joined southport with no players and bought them. then in january i had a bid for sumone in my reserves that i didnt hav a clue who they were and it was a goalkepper stats: AERIAL:16 AGILITY:17 HANDLING:16 REFLEXES:17 THROWING:15 and the bid was off man u. i put him in my main squad and had bids off chelsea and liverpool. also it says he has 6 caps for england and when i put him in my main team he was worth 1M unlike the 3.2M he was in the reserves Has this happened to anyone else?

Lukaboi Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Nope never had it mate, great find, weird that he has 6 caps for england :confused: How old is he? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calvinj93 Posted October 29, 2008 Author Share Posted October 29, 2008 20 and it luks like he has mint stats for the reserves average rating of 8.09 last year but still wierd that he played for england considering southport went even in the blue square premier then and he was in the reserves Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridley99 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 i imagine it will be because he has built up a reputation in the reserves where as when you promote him into the first team he has to prove himself, just to add you wont be able to sell him if hes in your reserves it wont go through ive found Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bergkamp.10. Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 hmm thats strange alright and as Ridley said you have to move him to sell him (although this has been fixed for 09 ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nerner Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Why is he a reserve? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bergkamp.10. Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Why is he a reserve? what exactly do you mean? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Football is da best Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 I think he probably means why is he in the Reserve team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bergkamp.10. Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 because sometimes new players just appear there first. usually you get told a youngster is being promoted into your first team, but sometimes you just have to look yourself! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zapislo Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 it actually helps that reserve players can't be sold. numerous times i've had players with a bigger club release clause (i always star at the lowest division possible) and i would put them to reserves when a bigger club approached them. this bug saved me many good youngsters i've snapped on a free.

ridley99 Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 same here had to keep moving players from and to reserves to sell the players i didnt want anymore Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bergkamp.10. Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 but the thing is when i moved them into the first team, most of the time no more bids would come in for them! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridley99 Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 i just kept offering them to clubs until i got the bid to get rid of them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St.Dazzle Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Glad being able to sell players in reserves has been fixed for 09. Wasted so much time having to move players from reserves to first team to sell them, then back again when new signings came in! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bergkamp.10. Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 this is one thing that really bugged me so im happy too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridley99 Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 i think we all are apart from when we get that bid that activates the big club release and we cant demote them to stop them from going Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St.Dazzle Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 Just going to have to pay them more to remove the clause, or resist signing them! Tough call. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
crickie Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 you will just have make sure that anyone you sign doesn't have the big club relelase clause in thier contract because ive had this problem loads of times before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
