Just another reason why this so-called "simulation" is about as realistic as a cow jumping over the moon.

That has been a standard problem throughout FM07. My Greenock Morton board constantly intercepted bids from Premier League clubs for my players, resulting in us having a £50 million bank balance. I was tee'd off at it because I wanted to keep the players instead of a Swiss Bank full of cash, but the stupid thing was that I had 100% of the money put into my transfer kitty.

So they don't trust me to decide for myself about selling a player for £10 million, but they are quite happy to let me go out and spend that money on any old player once they've sold him! </BLOCKQUOTE>

I guess its because they assume you will buy an equally talented player but for less money!

Pfft! They shouldn't go assuming things! If they want that then they should just give me £5 million onto my transfer kitty. As it is I've only spent ~£7 mill of that £50 mill they swept up from transfers anyway.

What do you want, FM08 to play out the season in every league in every country goal for goal?
oh come on, this clearly shouldn't happen in the game, and it's nothing like the mikel situation

Allowing a buyback clause for the same value as the original transfer is a bug, simple as.
