coreytst Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Has anyone in England managed to sign him in the 1st season as he is on a free? I've tried so many time's & can't get a Wp, he's played the last 2-3 international's so even without a club he's still adding to his 44 cap's.

Viking Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I think it´s a "known issue being looked into". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSF90 Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Nope, was always denied for me. But then signed for an Italian club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCIAG Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 He has been injured for the past year, you need to have 75% of the caps in 2 years. He's been ruled out of around 50%. No bug. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviejay Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 It happens in the Scottish League too. Has anyone noticed how other teams never seem to get rejected for WP's. or maybe it's just me ;-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
coreytst Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 So they don't take into fact that he's playing international footie despite not having club & (& just checked) being out for 9 month's & then before that 5 month's, understand that they won't but he's free!!

Viking Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 How does the game know he has been ruled out of around 50% of the caps the last two years? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veg Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 He has been injured for the past year, you need to have 75% of the caps in 2 years. He's been ruled out of around 50%. No bug. Actually it's a bug because if the player gets a written medical confirmation that tells that he hasn't been able to play internationals because of injury, they then check if he had played 75% of the internationals the last to years before he got injured.

So he should be my player then?? Got a feeling if he goes somewhere else & i pay cash for him the game won't have a problem me signing him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably less of a bug than an oversight in not programming this quirk of the rules in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperMeppen Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 It sounds like it's the sort of thing that the appeal should work for - after all, a number of players IRL get through on appeal even when they don't meet the requirements (Gonzalez at Liverpool springs to mind, he got through on account of being a real talent (ha!) and had been tracked for a couple of years IIRC). Hard to program a lot of flexability into the game though, I'd imagine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cxavie Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 I got him at parma but coudn't sign him because serie B clubs are not allowed to sign non EU player. The thing with Appiah is that he has played enough years in Italy to get an Italian passport. But to get this he has to be in Italy, so I got him on a 4 week trial two weeks into his trial periode he got his Italian passport and I signed him. Parma being one of his favorite clubs helped alot! Maybe this would work for you, if you have an affiliated club in italy. Send him down there wait until he becomes an EU citizen and call him back. You could off course also loan him out to a italian club with the recall option I hope this helps... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sussex Hammer Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 Defo a bug because IRL the Hammers are after him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rougess Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 what annoys me is that an unproven, 15 yr old Gerson can get a work permit every time, yet an experienced international like Appiah can't. :thdn:illogical:thdn: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
