From the 8.0.1 changelist:

Board Confidence

# Got long-term expectations to update quicker once a team has effectively finished thier season (e.g team wins league with 10 games to go).
# Fixed long-term expectations confidence level getting set to zero if team gets to a higher division than it's long-term expectations and stays in that same division the following season.
# Got the board to offer new contracts to managers around 2 months before the end of thier deals instead of the existing one month, if deals get to that stage.

So it sounds like your problem, copperhorse, should be fixed in 8.0.1.

ChabbyAlonso, I don't see anything there that would indicate the presence of the fix you describe. I think that changelist is from 8.0.0 to 8.0.1, not "from last beta patch to the final patch", so it sounds like its time to drop it on into the bugs forum. ( FM 2008 Bugs Forum)
