In fairness i have not downloaded the beta patch
The beta patch fixes this very issue.

If you'd downloaded that, then you would have got a new contract.

Same happened to me 1st season began at burscough in the blue square north. My board expectation for that season was to attempt to avoid relegation, and over two years to establish the club in a safe mid table position in the blue square north.

I got promoted in my first season top of the league then in the second season my expectation for the season was to attempt to avoid relegation again. with the two year thing still the same.

At the end of the season no new contract so I moved to sunny spain.

You may have said it but I havent seen it.

What were YOUR squad expectations at the start of the season that you declared to the board?

I know the feeling, something is not right re the board.

I'm West Ham, after 29 games I'm 3rd in the Premier League and am in the Quarter Finals of the FA Cup. Ok I got hammered by Chelsea in the 2nd Round of the League Cup but my Board are

"Satisfied"!!!

My performance in the Transfer Market they are "satisfied". Considering they only give me 6 Million I'm not surprised!!

What do you need to do??

I really hope they sort this out in the patch because I reckon I'm gonna get sacked unless I win the Cup and Premiership!!

It was to attempt to avoid relegation in both seasons.

Not saying it is the reason but I would say that is the route cause of you not getting your contract renewed.

By you exceeding both expectations and giving a lower than actual target to the board they might have deemed you not ambitious enough despite your results

Thanks for that i'll be a little bit more ambitious next time.

I must just not rate ability highly enough as a manager, to do so well and totally prove the media wrong. :cool:

In my game fergie didn't have his contract renewed after only one season, that season he didn't win anything, in the league he got 3rd with Arsenal coming in top. He got eliminated in the CL in the semis in an all english affair, didn't go far in the other cups too, and because of this he didn't have a new contract.
