  1. My club is close to breaking European FFP rules and I was planning to sell in the january window to ensure that I comply with the rules. As I am in Europe I my board can only invest 21.55 million over a 3 year period and as such I am suprised to see my board inject 33.5 million into the club. Surely that means my club should be banned from Europe next year regardless of what sales I make?
  2. This has to be a bug surely??? My Chairman has just announced that the club has agreed a new sponsorship with a local company. The deal is for £0 over 3 years. Unless my Chairman has some terrible hidden stats. Not quite the help to my FFP restrainststhat I thought was coming as I first saw the message lol.
  3. Thanks for the explanation. IMO the future fee would just be what is paid if condition x is met and the loan fee is made up of wages and any loan fee. I see them as 2 distinct values but that could just be how I am reading it.
  4. In my save which I have transferred from FM23 I have noticed that whenever a player gets signed on loan wit a future fee mentioned in the news report it is c0ompletely different to what appears in their contract info. It seems to happen on every player.
  5. It is Under 21 players so a 21 year old does not count towards this rule.
  6. Hi all, As we know when a player signs a contract they negotiate a loyalty bonus which gets paid on a monthly basis. If we sell the player we pay out the full remaining bonus unless they have handed a transfer request in which voids the bonus. My question is what happens if we offer them a new contract? Does it get paid in full or is it voided with the new loyalty bonus taking over from the date that they sign? I have searched online and these forums and I cannot find anything that clarifies this.
  7. In my save I have used my 6 U21 signings for the year and as such had a look at free players I could sign in January on a free that would be 21 or over. I such player I found was Jorge Aponte who contract runs out on 01/01/34. Jorge is currently 20 years old but his birthday is on 01/10 so will be 21 before he signs. Unfortunately after obtaining a Work Permit the game told me that the deal had been cancelled as I had already hit my limit of U21s. What this indicates is that the game is implementing this rule on the day that the contract is signed instead of appling the rule to the date they will join. In my opinion the joining date should be checked on the signing day and cancelled if you are not within the limite but it should not be using one of your spaces or cancelling the deal if they will be 21 when they join. I do not have a save prior to this event but to recreate you can enter straight back into negotiations and repeat the process.
  8. North America (Central) also does not appear on the list of regions under Scouting Coverage > World Knowledge
  9. When one of my Scouts had completed their Intensive Language Course I click on him to see how his knowledge was developing as he is scouting North America (Central) I was suprised to see that he has built absolutely no lnowledge although every other scout covering alternative regions is. Even if there have not found any targets. When I checked the Scouting Clverage page I noticed that this region does not zoom in like every other region does. This indicates that there are no countries in this region unless I am missing something.
  10. For context my team has made a decent transfer profit this year as well
  11. I am unsure if this is a bug but I have just had the Premier League Profit and Loss come through and it states that I have made a loss of £65.85million This did not ring true to me as I have made a loss of £10.5 mil this season and £17.1 mil last year so even if you added both together it wouldn't add up. I have payments to make on transfers as well as other lub debt and I have future transfers incoming but I do not think they should be included into the calculation. This game is transferred from FM23 btw. As I said I do not know if this is a bug or a fundamental misunderstanding of how this number is being calculated.
  12. @Zachary Whyte I don''t have any recent before this unfortunately but I do upload saves quite reguarly as I noticed small bugs but if you check my recent posts you may find one. All my saves are called Gary James - 'Fault Name Sorry I can't be any more help?
  13. My club has a stadium capacity of 5,890 (5880 seated) but as I have started a new season I get a news report telling me we have sold 6,109 season tickets so far. This save game was transferred from fm23.
  14. Yeah its not a major issue it just reminds me that I can't use the feature every time somebody fails to secure a work permit lol
  15. @Zachary Whyte I understand that and it makes sense thank you. If ESC players are not in ported saves wouldn't it make sense for this message not to appear in game then? Or is it not possible to have different messages depending on the save file?
  16. I read earlier this year that ESC rules could not be added to FM23 games porting over to FM24 as it was hard coded into the league rules. Recently when players I attemt to sign fail their Work Permit it comes up saying that they are not eligible for an ESC Work Permit. I believe this line has been added on a recent update but my question is have ESC rules been applied to FM23 saves but just not working correctly or has the message been added for FM24 saves forgetting that it shouldn't appear on FM23 saves? Either way there seems to be an issue as the message appears every time now and I have never successfully signed an ESC player.
  17. @Zachary Whyte just FYI you tagged the wrong Gary. @Gary_Parker I believe this feedback is for you fella.
  18. Following I am under the impression it is for trasnfers out of the country but could be wrong. Would be good to know what it is charged on and at what percentage.
  19. I have just got promoted to the Premier League and I am being subjected to Champions League FFP regulations. This save has been transferred from FM23. I first saw the CL FFP on my save as I confirmed promotion from the Championship but thought it would dissapear once the new season had loaded but this is not the case.
  20. @Michael Sant just wanted to add to that eventually the request to increase set piece coach wages was accepted but in the interim it would not acknolwedge the request as dexcribed above. The option has appeared for me to request to increase them again and I have exactly the same symptoms. If I was to guess I would say that the game is not rejected these requests properly and it is just leaving it as an option as it cannot accept it either.
  21. @Michael Sant IThe funds did go from my transfer budget to Shamrock so this is just a visual error.
  22. I just bought a clause from Shamrock Rovers but the body text of the news item says 30% of his next transfer was due to come to us. That is inccorect it was due to go to Shamrock Rovers.
  23. Sorry if this is in the wrong place but I think this issue could have fit into a few areas. I have just got promoted to the Championship and the rules for FFP have been shared with me. Some advice says finances are reviewed over a three year period and others say 4 years. \
  24. Whenever I try to wign a player who would require a Work Permit for the UK and is over 21 it states that the player would need to be 21 or under on 01/01/2005. My game is in 2027 which means the player would have to be 43 to earn a work permit on appeal. I think it is trying to say he won't win on appeal as he is over 21 but it is worded very strange imo.
  25. @Michael Sant Just to provide some more context to this issue. In my experience when Keep Scout Reports up to date is ticked then the debt will continue to rise exponentially as your scouts will continue to scout everybodyon your shortlist regardless of your scouting package. I am unsure if it still thinks I have Uk and Ireland set as that is what I set at the start of the season even though I know I cannot afford to scout for the whole year. If I have keep up to date unticked then my scouts will go slightly in to debt as if they start a scouting tour and then they are told finish that tour and no more. This is still slightly annoying as you would imagine that a club would say no don't go on another 10k tour as we can only afford 7.3k for example. As it is a small amount of debt it is manageable and does not break the game. Since I posted this yesterday I turned keep up to date off and my scouting budget debt has risen to 202k which is understandable with my 5 scouting focus teams that were already out and multiple scouts. I will moniter if this debt still continues to rise even with this option off and I will update this thread.
