    TBH, I'm thinking of coming back to manage Estudiantes. Only because, like the other teams I've kept, I don't think there's much else I can do there only manage my team through matches so it'll be quick and easy.


    Watch this space. ;)

    I think we need to extend out the login time ... a few have fallen foul of it due to their RL circumstances ... when there isnt the benefit of buying from an unmanaged when a team gets freed up / or the origional manager getting back in anyway what is the point of an early chuck out time?


    There is only a day or two till the next Season, so maybe a quick PM in the world and a vote closing in at lunchtime tomorrow ... or maybe mac is allowed to use common sence and just extends it back to 31 days?

    Normally I would disagree with this, but it was changed to catch out the lads that were logging in once every 30 days and doing nothing for another month...

    But to be fair these managers are logging in now once every 14 days so it's just not working....


    Which is a pity

    i think it's working....

    how many have reapplied after getting sacked? i count 2 out of the masses that have fallen foul of the 14 day rule and blobby didn't even go back to the club he left. :o

    mac should bring it down to 7 days without telling anyone and see who actually plays the game. :D

    By the way I completely agree with this!!!

    I was just having a dig!! Thing is your right.... The system will weed out those who have real commitment and those who accidentally fall victim can always reapply

    Yeah, but when the AI spends all my money on players (for the second f***ing time) I'm not going to bother reapplying the next time - it was supposed to weed people out and it didn't - but as I seem to be the only person inconvenienced by it let's leave it at 14 days...... that's the thought process is it?

    Thanks for f***ing nothing!

    Are you a Liverpool fan?

    If one person is being inconvenienced by the rule, genuinely inconvenienced then I'd be all for changing the rule....

    Thing is, as we all can see lads tend to log in almost every day and I chat with you almost all the time on the chat, so how is 14 days not enough? That's not a smart comment in case it comes across like that.

    I say again, if there are circumstances where a regular cannot make the 14 days then by all means change it, 100% change it, only fair to know why first

    The whole point of the login was to weed out the once a month Joe's and if they were sacked and not active on here, only let em back to the club twice max, then refuse them anymore as they obviously weren't arsed. However I see all the once a month codgers getting sacked and let straight back in so what good is it. Not directed at you Hercule as you active and we love you :P

    I couldn't care less at this stage tbh, the GW has a load of free clubs and a few newbies stay. Then I'd say your lucky if half of the mangers even reply to your bids or PM's, most won't even give ya a "sorry not for sale" so that especially has me bored to tears of this world tbh. Kudos to the lads that at least reply and to the boys like Lazio, Porto and City that will have a great chat with tho :)

    I would like to apologise for this post - it was unacceptable and (I would like to think) out of character for me - I shall not offer excuses as there are none worthy of such idiocy. I have deleted it as there is no place for it here.

    Besiktas may also be free as they have been applied for, but I'm not sure if it's a valid application, or that the game has just offered the to a random manager.


    Also, I must admit, it felt good to take Estudiantes off the list! :D

    They are free. I offered it too a manager I knew before the influx of new players! I can withdraw the offer if some one would like them
