Now, IRL the Scottish club Queen's Park most likely will never give up their tradition and will remain amateur indefinately - but what about in the game? I've had them promoted to the Premier League and no change in their professionality status (amateur). Is this set in stone, or is there a possibility they will become professional at some point in the future?
Basically I can't be arsed to continue the save if I have no wage or transfer budget, players train part time and contracts are unprotected every year Jan/Feb and after if them footballers don't sign new contracts. Curiously I have been the only full time employee after I first signed extention to my manager contract.
I know that in england when a team gets promoted from the conference to league 2 they normally change their status, probably if you survive for a season or so then maybe they will change their status but im not sure though, hope this helped

It's probably written into the game that they will always stay amateur. Wouldn't be realistic otherwise
The other trigger for going pro in the game, other than reaching a certain league, is 5m in the back at the end of the season. If you achieve that and don't go pro then its safe to say its hard coded in.
they wont be full time ever unless they make first divison ive heard talk about them wanting to go full time but they have lost most of there good players
and im sad to see trouton go he was our best player not to worry wel be fighting for relegation again this season
To the OP, someone posted a challenge in the challenges forum to win the CL with Queens Park or something not so long ago. I argued it was impossible as they can't turn pro. I reckon this just about proves it.
If you really want to know, you could save where you are, stick it on holiday for a while and see if anything changes? That said if you're not in charge they'll probably just get relegated.
Good effort in getting them that far, btw. Well played.
