As we all know when the game is processing other matches it will show some news items (ex. players who have put in their transfer request or been released on a free). Are these considered "in-game knowledge" for LLM standards?

BTW, I did read the rules before asking (I've lurked for quite a while now). Unlike our friend kj89 I do have time to read the rules to ensure that this is not a pointless question.

Wow. Thats actually a GOOD question...

And with no visits to heathen fiora, othe than one to Satans abode...

/me is impressed.

In answer to your question, I guess that it counts as in game knowledge if you act accordingly, however I'm not sure when you would be able to act, as the usual news is for a higher club, such as 'Porto's Portupoof joining Manure hands in transfer request'.

I've nevr acted upon it, but then again I've never been quite classed as 'good'

What Moonshine said - most of the news items you see during processing are for higher clubs than I've managed to get to so far in FM 2007.

Not sure how accurate they are either, as at one stage in my current save (England / Scotland / Ireland / Wales / Italy / Spain loaded) and some guy in Russia's contract seems to expire almost every month

Its definately a matter that needs looking at tbh. But I guess its helpful. Its like a national press, for reading about top quality players

I agree that it is about players that I would normally not have a chance at, but I equate it to manager who is reading a newspaper. All the game shows is a "headline", but it is our choice to investigate with a scout or not.

I haven't done that yet (I'm probably done with FM07. I'm going back to FM06), but I was curious about the opinions.

It is news. It can focus your attention to higher teams players, but in the end, you can't really afford them anyway. If they are out of your country, in lowest division, you mostly cannot even scout them. And as player search is out of question...

I'd say yes, it's in game knowledge, so as you progress if there is a player you want to scout from it then go ahead. One would be rather dumb just to sign somebody from here though, they'd need checking out.
