[negative scouting budgets]

I've moved on to another club, Doesn't seem as big a problem so perhaps its been fixed  but to answer the question no "keep reports up to date" is not turned on. Play this game for years and used every setting I could before eventually just turning scouting off and sacking all the scouts.

[negative scouting budgets]

Has this been fixed yet? I've managed two teams and each has had this issue. Both are low league - Dover & Darlington and nothing, including removing the recruitment staff, and deleting all assignments makes much difference to money being deducted from the scouting budget. current season with Darlington, no scouting, only a chief scout, and no assignments started with a scouting budget of £20k, and after 30 games they've spent £30k doing no scouting at all.
