retired_adina is an unknown quantity at this point
Default Greyed players...

What does it mean? Nearly all my reserves and youfs are grey...I'm presuming because they don't have a contract? But I can still use them? So what's it mean...? That they are on the club books or something, but not contracted? So what happens if your goaly gets injured and you call up the reserve (without a contract) and he tells you "eff off, I'm down the pub at 3 o'clock"...??

Also...does this reflect real life and do the wages reflect real life too...because some of them earn less then the dole.

Sorry, but I stopped reading your post after reading the word "Youfs". Then I realised that you have used your full question mark qouta for the month in one paragraph. I myself have a question for you...

What do you think your chances are of your multiple questions being answered in a serious manner?

Something like that.

In real-life this is exactly what can happen. In the game it won't.

Yes, it does reflect real-life - to what extent at higher levels I don't know. But at the lowest levels (my experience) you have players registered with the club, but who don't play regularly who can be called on in an emergency (or who are trialists - players who train with the club, but aren't registered as players). If the club makes payments (most of the clubs I've played with I've had to pay them...), then they will pay the player (in my experience they were one-off payments for the match, not a 'wage').

What also sometimes happens is that the player registered doesn't actually exist (or is someone who quit football, but is still on the books) and whoever is available to the team (usually some bloke from the pub) will play under that registered player's name. Commonly known as 'ringers'.

Quite good, I'd say.

For now at least - he's still on probation JohhnyV, so I'm being nice...
