It depends on the country, it should tell you when you make the team your feeder clubs. Some countries can be as little as 2 years while others can be as much as 6.


Christ that's longer than I thought. Hardly worth bothering about. I'm in England with Liverpool, so I'm not exactly desperate for players but I thought it would only be a year or so.

Anyone know how long it takes for players to get the 2nd Nationality so that they don't need a work permit? I've got a couple of young Brazilians on loan at one of my feeder teams and was just wondering how long it'll take for me to play them.

I got a feeder club in Belgium and it only took 2/3 years for my players.

You should only really give a warning to a player who gets a match rating of 4 or less, otherwise you'll nearly always get that response.

To concede 7 goals is really poor though.

What a legend.

I had Raul Albiol under contract to 2011, he was on 10k a week and wanted more money so I offered him 30k a week. He rejected this contract and his contract then expired in 2007. Is this a common bug? My mate then stole the player, I want to punch his c**t in. Anyone else experienced this? I tried looking through the thread but couldn't find anything apart from that screen shot of a goal machine.

I signed Carle for Morton when I was in the First Division. His goalscoring is excellent, but everything else is pish, wasn't complaning at first but got to the SPL and he was totally useless.

You don't know how to manage him. A few beers before the game and hes fine.

that Carle bloke is rubbish, dont know where County got him!

do you know Carlos? tongue.gif

He's a promising youth player from Dingwall Academy, the researcher just got his age wrong. I hear he's built like a brick shit house, no pace but he'll stick it in the onion bag. Very Kris Boyd, not as ugly.

Only 5 games to go in my Raith season.

2nd place, 14 points behind Morton, so I've given up hope on the title.

2 points ahead of Stirling and 9 points ahead of Cowdenbeath and Brechin so I think I'll finish 2nd or 3rd.

Oné will be player of the year. 33 goals, average rating 7.53. I just hope I can keep him as he is beginning to want bigger things.

you should have offered him a new contract already but you may have left it too late n he might reject it and go to a first divsion club sad.gif
Mon The Clyde
I avoided relegation with Dagenham ont he last day - was 1 point above Bury going into the game, which was at home, against Bury. Backs to the wall with minutes to go, but a deflected free-kick with the last kick of the ball from Gary Arbuckle sailed in and sent Bury to the Conference.

Dagenham also have new owners - bring the frightening debt I had cleard, which is good as cash from TV deals ect (£295k I think) will help.

Oh he has been under contract for ages!

I was just hoping he doesn't get pissed off, he was disappointed that your rivalry with dunfermline mean he couldn't move there - last itme I use that reason! laugh.gif

Looks like he is willing to stay, despite 5 figure offers coming in.

Oh btw, I got promoted, finished 2nd then beat Stirling then Hamilton in the playoffs, yes Armand will be playing for a division 1 club.

Over the summer

OUT
C. Fahey (out of contract)
T. Muirhead (keeper I signed in January, looked like a good idea at the time) (out of contract)
J. Cusick (hopefully)
S. Napier (old centre back I signed) (hopefully)
I. Harty (hopefully)
B. Fairbairn (gone for 1K)

IN
D. Orr (GK)
S. O'Mahoney (Young Centre-back)
A. Hamilton (Right Winger)
G. Robinson (Striker)
A. Kontè (Striker)

Still looking for a good centre half and if Orr and Brown don't do as well as I'm hoping might get someone like Lee Robinson on loan.

edit - how could I forget - also signed Marek Tomana cool.gif

do you need a work permit for him ?
The Warrior
Yes, and at that age it's virtually impossible to get one. If you have a feeder club with 'avoid work permit' as the main feature, you'll be able to sign him, but due to his age, you can't loan him out.
Kylesons
Im in a network game where i have been a couple of clubs and in the current 2009/2010 season and i am stenhousmuir. i took over them when they were bottom of the 3rd then tookl them to 3rd and missed out in the final of the playoffs well now i have a good squad and i am 1.4 k under my wage budget and have 20 k to spend and was wondering if anyone knew any good players i could get or even on loan which would be interested wink.gif
Dundee Par
After leaving Morton to go to Liverpool, I'm now on the verge of winning the Premiership. Just need to win my last 2 games or hope Chelsea slip up. Also in the final of the FA Cup against Arsenal. Been a pretty successful season considering Liverpool weren't doing that great before.
turboshandy
Anyone else have Gretna playing in front of 11,000+ crowds in the first division after a couple of seasons?

Bizarre.
SimonLichtie
Currently still with the Shire in 2010. Promoted in my first season, survived 2nd season then won the 2nd division by a mile in my 3rd.

Currently 3 games from the end of my first season in division one, and i'm 8th, 3 points ahead of Morton, with Dundee miles back at the bottom.
Casper Rose
Just started a game with City a few weeks back, going to get ripped into it like dugs around beetroot just now!

My signings are :

Alan Gow
Dong Fangzhou
Kirk Broadfoot
Teddy Bjarnason
Carlos Roa and
Ivan Bandalovski
Whistle Blower
Just started a new game with East Fife

Going really well and have been in 2nd place all season, Craig O'Reilly is fairly banging in the goals.

Best signing though has been Mirnes Ibrahimovic for free from North End, outstanding player.

I've said this before I think, but I feel it needs repeating as it will allow you to have the best team in the world.

Go into the editor and look at all the bigger European clubs and South American one and note down youngsters with a potential of -10. These are the player who have the potential to be world class.

As long as you ensure that you have 5 stars for every training aspect, in a few years they will become amazing. When I had my team fully trained up and at their best I got bored after a further 3 seasons.

I was Barca, and just checked the stas on my saved game a moment ago, they were.

2010/2011 - Played 38, won 35, drew 2, lost 1. For 106, against 12
2011/2012 - Played 38, won 34, drew 4, lost 0. For 102, against 14
2012/2013 - Played 38, won 36, drew 0, lost 2. For 111, against 9

i urge everyone, regardless of what team you are, to sign peter weatherson from morton. i signed him for man utd (for a laugh to begin with rolleyes.gif ) and played him in my opening 2 fixtures of the season, he scored a hat-trick both games ohmy.gif i have continued to play him and he scores regularly, including a hat-trick against bayern in the CL. he's also extremely cheap, remember to play him up front though.

Started rather well in the SPL, beating Rangers at Ibrox.

Also a score which will hopefully become reality cool.gif
