A sticky with "***New managers - Please read***" and a few forum rules would be handy. It could also be used as a Q&A for new managers who are learning the ropes? Just an idea

Yeah I think a sticky would be the way alright.... Mac asked me to draw up the charter for review before publication, I'd be willing to write something up for Mac to review before making a sticky...


Unless someone else wants to do it? If not then let me know what needs to be in it, such as...

General conduct - Language & respect for other managers
Naming external players
Naming newly added players

Anything else?


Mac will be reviewing it and altering it as required so don't worry I'm not dictating or anything! Just offering a hand :D

The first rule of soccermanager is, don't talk about soccermanager. The second rule is there are no rules. The third is don't be a díck and name newly available players who are being bid for. The fourth rule is Rayne Wooney is the greatest

You just saved me a whole load of time :D


Seriously though, are there any other issues that need to be made known to new managers???

Don't mention new players to database?

Edit - tupac already mentioned that.

Maybe point out that the SMFA monitoring is only turned off on a trial basis for one season.

Forgot that!

I also put in about responding to bids/P.M. in a timely fashion... That can be fairly annoying

Might be a good idea to stick in the contact list that PBJ done up too perhaps?

cant believe that bidding war for the german kid is still going on.......

Lads any suggestion why my offer for Gary Cahill collapsed, I had enough money to cover and my offer was better than the one accepted.

I must be cursed don't think I'll get the other player either.

There is a deal in place with Kyiv. I had him marked as unavailable, with no real wish to sell, but the Kyiv manager made me what I feel was an excellent offer, I couldn't say no really. The other offers came in after the deal was done unfortunately, in the interest of fairness after tough negotiations I wouldnt back out of the deal. Some very good offers lads so thanks, but I feel I've got a great deal for him.

Tupac I spoke to you on the chat at the weekend about him, and I would have listened to your offer no prob, but over the next two days that deal got done with Kyiv. So apologies my man!

A note to the Kyiv manager Tonic Wine! Top man, very good to deal with, very fair in negotiations and willing to be flexible. First type of deal like this since I started playing in August. All in all, delighted with how it went!

tonic wine

When can we officially start loan bids for next season?

I'd like to use this as an example of someone not knowing who the hell a player is but bidding on him because his name popped up here.

Ok understand need to learn how to do back alley deals and wasn't marked as unavailable when I threw in the first bid last night.

Wonder who would have got him otherwise was waiting the last couple of weeks for him to appear and was the second bid on him, but this wasn't the first time I lost out on a player thanks to somebody producing a list of players and was an established manager.

I don't see how, seeing as he wasn't mentioned until after the bids were accepted.

Danger781

Id throw in a bid if I could spare the cash. Just sayin'.

When a name gets mentioned here like that I automatically go and check out said player.
