    Chairman absolutely going mad with new contracts. Wouldn't mind except he only signs them for 1 season.

    Here, lads, is there any way to stop unmanaged clubs from selling players? I think it's a bit ridiculous that people are picking off the best players from the clubs whose managers have buggered off and leave the club with dross for the next manager, it will make it impossible to get people interested in taking clubs eventually.

    I really think it's bad form.

    He didn't say there was. What he is saying is, the teams are being stripped of any half decent players and any potential risers, who's going to want to take them over when they're left with a bunch of 85s and a world where it normally costs an arm and a leg for decent players

    I never said there was, I'm just saying that the teams are being raped of all their best players for a lot less than they are worth in this GW and left with ****e, and the managers who come in will lose interest very quickly.

    Look at braga, nobody with any sense will touch them, they are broke, ****e and have no prospects, the are literally a lost cause in this GW.

    Eh thats all well and good......

    But....

    All these players WILL go back to whatever external clubs if the teams continue to be unmanaged.

    You will notice Southampton have a bid in for one of their players so, any players brought in by previous managers WILL MORE THAN LIKELY BE GONE REGARDLESS......

    So I shouldnt have bought Williams, he could go back to Swansea where its a free for all when his ban is up? Cause that makes loads of sense.....

    No, you shouldn't have bought Williams, there should be a way to stop unmanaged clubs from selling players, period, until they have a new manager.

    And you paying feck all for him just so he doesn't go to swansea is a bollocks argument to be honest.

    Just wondering what your opinion is? Do you agree because my news feed says different!

    Besides I dont think his point needed clarification, be interested in your opinion on the matter though, not in a starting **** way!

    Firstly 15+ mil for a 89 28 year old not feck all imo.... its decent money...

    Second, weather you like it or not, its the way it is, its not against rules and if you want something changed then get back in the que!!!!!!


    Tough job getting something changed man. Better off to just accept its the way it is, and hey at least there is some transfer activity happening


    And from the amount of bids in on these sort of players already, plenty to suggest some managers like this way


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,152 ✭✭✭✭KERSPLAT!


    I was just clarifying his point. I made a bid because he's going to go to someone, I might as well be in for him.


    It's a tricky one. My stance would be, a week is too short. It should be at least 2 or maybe even 3. It gives plenty of time to find another manager. Clubs being stripped of all assets means they will, in all likelyhood, never be managed again or swap managers as much as Chelsea IRL.

    What is your opinion on the turnstile type system there will be at these clubs, in regards to managers, when they see the crap that they've been left with?

    Is it a tricky enough situation for you to withdrawn your bid though...

    Not aimed at you personally but people need to come off the fence around here and state where they stand on stuff...

    Again, not aimed at you


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,515 ✭✭✭tupac_healy

    Thats why I said that! You kind of proved my point! Ha ha!!!!!


    I didnt accept it, I stood up and tried to get it changed and look how it turned out!!!!

    Thats the EXACT point I was making!

    Why do people need to come off the fence? People are free to do what they want within the rules, like bidding on these players. That doesn't change my opinion that this will ruin those clubs

    And for the sake of it, I will withdraw my bid ;)

    Heskey and Klose..

    THE ULTIMATE STRIKE FORCE!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,152 ✭✭✭✭KERSPLAT!


    Ah cheapskate :D Tupac bid 15m or so


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,489 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    I do agree it hurts the gameworld when teams get stripped like that. I get the arguement Tupac is running with, but it doesn't change the fact the teams are losing their best players at a value that's half of what they would have gone for had they been managed, and it makes the hard task of running small teams even harder :(

    Not being pedantic here, but im not 'running' with anything...

    Im playing the game within the rules and will continue to do so until the rules alter to suit.... im not making ANY argument, ive stated what would have happened otherwise, im not justifying nor do I feel I need to justify buying Williams....

    Its not wrong because the rules say so...


    As regards my 'fence' comment, PPPP your right, people do have the right to sit on the fence on a subject matter, fair enough I concede that.

    Way too rich for me!!!! I was trying to sneak him at 8!!!!!!
