Oh how wrong i was.
They gave me 2.2million, and took away my 7 million i made from selling a few players.
thats 1.8 million less than last years budget, despite the fact i won the treble.
VERY ****ING GOOD!!!
| I'm wondering if the reason for this could be that in season 1 you went over you wage budget and run up a debt.
If this is the case and the board have reduced your player budget to address the debt and/or to ensure the ongoing stability of the clubs finances I'd say that this was a very worthy feature
Perhaps some more info around your finances and wage budget would help us consider this further

To be fair though, winning the Treble in scotland with Rangers is surely expected? in fact, I'm quite sure that Rangers and Celtic fans IRL expect to win the 3 competitions every season, so to do what is expected would still mean that the manager is somewhat unproven, if they did the same the next season and performed well in europe, then they would be a proven successful manager. Thus is why I said flash in the pan

finding them good, season came down to last game, celtic leading the league by a point, they got beat 4-0 from falkirk and i won 2-1 against motherwell.
it stupid they took it away, i earned that from selling players, i should be able to keep that.
They players were sold in the winter transger window, so they should have taken it then.
Just before the transfer window i asked for more money and they gave me 4 million, then they take it away????
whats the point???
I believe it needs fixed to be more realistic.

| Are you sure about that? I think it's perfectly reasonable that budgets are set every year. There is no problem here really, the board are stingy, some are, some aren't. Have you asked for more?

You started a thread a few days ago stating that "Si had F***** up" because you couldn't win games. Now you've won the treble and have decided that the game is still f'd up because of financial constraints that evry team experiences at some point in time. Don't mean to be rude but just seems like you're a whinger.
To put the financial constraint in context, Southampton sold Walcott for almost £15m and have since suffered financial problems. Of course Southampton are not on a scale of Rangers but Rangers are not a money making machine in game just as they aren't IRL and have quite significant debt, they also spend relaticvely little every season so this all seems normal to me.
