Yes, I know that. But I did write that at home I can watch ALL Premier League matches live through VIAPLAY which is television here in Denmark, doesn´t matter whether it´s Luton or Manchester City, they are also all commented either by Danish or English commentators. But I guess that isn´t considered "televised" if it´s only what´s shown in the UK on live TV.

I can watch pretty much all PL matches every week at home, I was wondering what televised in terms of income means in FM. Some weeks you get nothing, some you do.

These are Charlie Goode´s demands, in real life he is at Brentford at 8k per week. I just have to give up the game .... can´t do it. This is not a young guy and has only gotten worse since I got him.

I think that´s because the player gets "reset" and goes back to what is normal. I wrote above about that, players just ask for more ... a lot more than they are worth and you cant really haggle that.

It´s not, there is no way to tell players that you have the lowest wage budget in the league and they are welcome to request a transfer, you wish to keep them but the finances simply do not allow for higher wages. It´s nothing against the players themselves, if they are good enough they should get a contract elsewhere. The problem is that in FM you can rise through the leagues quickly and players don´t access their own "worth". It means that you can have a 2 star player demanding ridiculous wages because they find themselves in an "upper league", they request a transfer or get unhappy and that situation about "own worth" is only resolved when they get to a new club, often at much lower wages. I kept a central defender at Wrexham because he is influential, he is not demanding first team football but does get to play more often than he really should, he is just not under any circumstances championship material. He just requested 15k and I have to let him go, he is already earning far more than he will at any other club along with 3 other players. One example of wage weirdness and FM is full of them : Charlie Goode is in my championship squad where he demanded 22k a week to sign a new contract, in real life he is at Brentford playing for 8k a week. He is a good Championship player but another I have to let go, I simply can´t tell him that the club doesn´t have that kind of money.

After 2 consecutive promotions with Wrexham all I have been dealing with are crybabies. Mullin wanted a stronger squad and gathered the team around me, I had to comply which lead to the next problem, not being able to renew any contracts because there simply isn´t a wage budget allowing it. I can pay around 10-15k Euros a week in the Championship for a player and they won´t play for that regardless of importance, had to let half of my team go upon promotion and signed other players on a free transfer, still havn´t bought a single player. The board really hasn´t invested a lot and selling players with a large database seems impossible, have only succeeded in getting rid of a few players using an intermediary. All in all it´s been an experience of people constantly wanting new contracts, probably due to the back to back promotions and a struggle to avoid crybabies. I have 8 wanting new contracts now, Mullin is gone by summer and can´t sell him, my players aren´t attractive, not even for free. 3 times already with 14 matches played they have gathered around me wanting new contracts for their team mates ... but there is one thing I can´t tell them: :- SORRY LADS, THERE IS NO BLOODY MONEY!!!!! .... Why can´t we tell them this at the squad meeting?
