Robbie Hood Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 I am not sure if this can be considered a bug or not and would appreciate it if someone could reassure me. In my savegame i am in my third season in the Premier League after consecutive promotions. The stadium was expanded to 12.000 to comply with the PL rules. The stadium was rented so i have asked the board to buy the stadium now that the finances allow it. I asked 20/5/2025, but then suddenly it got cancelled. I have since asked again to buy the stadium and now it says the completion date will be 17/7/2027. But under facilities it says that the stadium is owned by private. I have also previously asked the board to buy a new stadium, and the response was positive, but since then nothing else has happened... Now i have finally gotten the chance to ask the board for a new stadium again and have uploaded a save game from before i will ask this question to the board. The file is called "Ross MacKintosh - Leyton Orient.fm" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie Hood Posted April 7, 2021 Author Share Posted April 7, 2021 And now after asking the board for a new stadium i have not heard anything back regarding that process. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie Hood Posted April 8, 2021 Author Share Posted April 8, 2021 And another thing i find strange is that in the overview of the stadiums in the PL it says that the capacity of my stadium is 2,689....when the correct capacity is 12,000. Brighton`s stadium capacity is also clearly wrong. So i would greatly appreciate it if someone from SI could take a look at my save game and see if there is anything wrong regarding the stadium of Leyton Orient. This was supposed to be a long term save getting Leyton Orient up from League Two and into Europe. With the club being based in London i assumed there is tremendous potential in the club and was hoping for a stadium expansion or new stadium after becoming established in the PL. Now i have won the Euro cup and playing my first season in the Champions League....but still with a capacity of only 12,000..... The corners of my stadium is not even filled in, so there is definately room for expansion. If there turns out to be something wrong here that i can not spot, i would like to know it so that i can consider buying the ingame-editor to see what can be done about the stadium situation Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SI Staff Luke Hume Posted April 11, 2021 SI Staff Share Posted April 11, 2021 Hey @Robbie Hood Are you running any custom files eg editor data? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie Hood Posted April 12, 2021 Author Share Posted April 12, 2021 Thank you for answering. I am not running any custom files or editor data. I have now gotten the chance to ask the board again for a new stadium, and you can see the process in the pictures below. So it`s probably not a bug, but i find it strange that the board agrees to building a new stadium and then suddenly realizing that the funds to not exist! Surely they would check that out before promising me a new stadium... So after a third place finish in the PL, Champions League football i am still stuck with a capacity of 12,000 for a London based club....and i never get the option of expanding the stadium. Bank balance is 164,000,000. I can upload a new version of the save if needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbie Hood Posted April 13, 2021 Author Share Posted April 13, 2021 I have now reached 7 aug 2027 and the bank balance is 152,319,348. I now have the option to ask the board to buy the stadium, but i have already done that 2 times, maybe 3, and it takes around a year and every time it just gets cancelled close to completion date without giving me a reason. It would be great if could take a look at it and see if something is wrong here, even if it`s not a bug. Would you like me to upload the lastest version of my save game?

Would be good to have both to see and try work out what has gone wrong. Thanks, Luke Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i have uploaded 2 save games which are both called "Ross Mackintosh - Leyton Orient.fm" The first one was uploaded on wednesday when i first started this thread, and if that one is played long enough there will eventually come the time to ask the board for an expansion. On the save game uploaded today there is the option to ask for buying the stadium. Maybe you can get some answers by checking that out? I am beginning to wonder if these two things are somehow connected. I have always asked to buy the stadium and then while waiting for that i have requested to build a new stadium. These requests have overlapped. I will proceed and NOT ask to buy the stadium but ask to build a new stadium when i get the chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie Hood Posted April 15, 2021 Author Share Posted April 15, 2021 I have now progressed in my save game and have again reached the point where i can ask the board for both to buy the stadium and build a new stadium. I have uploaded that save game so you can try out both options and see if you can find anything strange going on. The file is called: "Leyton Orient - New stadium.fm" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
