Loan Cap (S14 and onwards)

1. Applies to unmanaged clubs only
2. Loan cap = FFP minus 40, first come first serve (e.g. if your FFP aka squad limit is 50, your loan cap = 50 - 40 = 10, which means you can only loan 10 players out to unmanaged clubs)
3. Duration for the above - until Turn 2 every season. After Turn 2, it is free-for-all
4. HARD RULE: Only players with rating 75 and/or above are allowed to be loaned out - if you spot someone breaking this, tell them to recall the player

I forgot the loans so only managed to get about 6 out, but have so much money now that it really doesn't matter anymore.

I forgot the loans so only managed to get about 6 out, but have so much money now that it really doesn't matter anymore.

I didn't bother with loans at all.

@Panther @Ravelation and Ben are my only hopes with Frimpong (88) and Disasi (88) but they'll probably say nah.

New season, new results posting thingy until I inevitably get bored of it weeks before the end of the season.

Lost 2:1 to Aston Villa in Charity Shield. On a side note, it is unfair to have both Everton and Forest in my first three league games.

I don't think I've ever seen the number of qualifying players get that high for one team.

Its a scattergun approach but its working, I have a couple gems that I'm going to try to hold on indefinitely.

[BenitoSTARR]

@Damien do I have to withdraw that bid even though Newcastle hasn’t disclosed theirs as per the ruling?

 

[BenitoSTARR]

NEW: Transfer Rule

• The max bid on the first available value for external/unmanaged players is the only bid that can be matched by all clubs and bids must be public. This bid cannot be changed and increased after the player value goes up. No exceptions. If the original bids for that player collapse after being accepted due to the player value increasing then only the clubs who originally bid may re-bid at the new max value.

@Damien Newcastle haven’t done this so t not sure how their bid is legitimate?

 

[BenitoSTARR]

I’ve made the first max value disclosed bid as per the rules. Newcastle needs to also make a max disclosed bid.

It says in the rules no exceptions.

 

[Damien]

I’ve made the first max value disclosed bid as per the rules. Newcastle needs to also make a max disclosed bid.

It says in the rules no exceptions.

Unfortunately half the people bidding for players don't bother disclosing their bids which is a headache as there's literally no reason to have them undisclosed anymore.

I tell people to disclose their bids but it's like shouting into the void. Main thing is people don't bid above the original max value.

@CrackersJr please withdraw your bid on Parkadze and post a screenshot of your bid on Butera. Also, in the future make sure your bids are disclosed.
