Default Facing Former Players

Just curious, how long into the future do you get messages before a match regarding players that used to play for you?

For example, I sold Defoe to Pompey in the summer of 07 (very start of the game), and now in March 2011, and I still get the news item about how it's expected to be a good meeting and I'm asked to comment etc.

Will this still happen in 2014 when he's 31 and hasn't played for me in 7 years? It's been 4 years as it is... Not a big deal, I'm just wondering if anyone knows anything.

Then you can tell the media that Defoe might be a threat if he actually makes it to the pitch without a seasure. (spelling)

It's basically another example of one of the new features which is poorly implemented and doesn't really work.

I'm in 2012 and I still get messages about players I had on loan/played 3 games in my first season.

Maybe because it was 'new' I actually used to comment on this media rather than ignoring it like the rest. I wont ever do this again after last night. I commented that my team was better without the player - a RUBBISH AMC who I had in the Championship on loan. In the first half, he alone had 11 shots on goal, scored 2 and got 2 assists.... I ended up losing 4-1 and got totally decimated by him !

Another feature added to the ignore list

Another annoyance with this feature is my being asked about reserves players I sold - some of whom I can't even remember having released.

Are the national media really bothered about the return of Scott Easton to Old Trafford?
