Realistic League - Foreign Transfers

First topic message reminder :

Managers may make 5 FT enquiries per week, starting at 0900 every Monday morning. The exception to this will be the end of the season, where additional FT enquiries will be granted.

FT enquiries, once made, can continue throughout the week until a deal is agreed. If however a FT enquiry is refused, please do not re-bid – a refusal will not be reconsidered regardless of the bid amount.

FT enquiries should be realistic, therefore we require a legitimate source – the more the merrier – to be convinced that your bid would be successful in real life. The current legitimate source list is currently as follows:

The Guardian
The Telegraph
The Times
Daily Mail
BBC Sport
Sky Sports

The current list of sources NOT accepted is currently: The Mirror, The Sun, Daily Express, Talksport, Daily Star, Metro, Bleacher Report, Trival Football, Caught Offside, Goal, Life’s a Pitch

No players brought in on a Friday may be used for that week’s tactics, as it would allow an unfair advantage for that team.

Players that are brought into the league through FTs are not allowed to be sold within the league for a minimum of 6 league games. This will avoid managers buying players on behalf of ‘smaller’ clubs, then selling them on, leaving a player at a club he would never have agreed to join.

I wouldn't listen to him bullbo Nick changes his mind about players as many times as women change clothes trying to decide what to wear on a night out...

I mentioned him in the box a few weeks back and he went i forgot about him he's class

I never said he was class.

Bruno, Joel Ward, Kevin Mcnaughton, Llyod Doyley are all better Championship right backs, i can assure you. Its a league i follow very closey and speak to a lot of people who attend games in that league, so its not just my opinion!

Yeah you did actually Nick im like an elephant my memory is awesome especially at crap you say

I am adamant i never said that, if you can remember everything i said thats a wee bit sad tbh.

No it's just irony that your backtracking after 1 match on your own comment Nick that's sad and fickle

Regardless lads, this is what the main thread is for

No commenting on other people's FT offers.

Also, Bull - both bids rejected. One for copying my offer, and the other one for hacing the nerve to copy someone else's FT offer.

*fishing rod smiley*

This time in gentlemens english Bull

Tbf Nick you did say that I remember...

your changing another rule?

nando did not confirm so i took the chances to take the player he never confirmed and i out bidded you fair and square.

You copied my bid for Josue word for word.

whats your point and dont mean i cant out bid you after all you can just out bid me your changing the rules to suit your self once more.

as for nandos one he never said yes to the deal and t5he player is waiting so why c\ant i swoop in to get him?

There we go bullbo just change the wording and it's a fine bid you can't really copy someones and you need something to separate them on eg 1st team prospects etc blah ive no issue with him having trippier

Bull I'm getting tired of this. Either behave or begone. It's childish.

Pathetic. Grow up.

Bull, this happens in basically every league you join. Threw a strop in the first season of this also.

general question whats the issue with him bidding for josue if he's reworded it

bid 2/5

Josue to stoke
bid 2.7m

he will have the chance to enter are midfield and we will make sure he can start , wolfsburg are struggling and with the manager only staying till the end of the season the cash can go towards getting a new manager or a new couple of young faces to the team after all they have a very good youth team and scouting system, for young talents to follow the likes of Dzeko for example.

The issue is this:

Bids that are rejected are REJECTED - meaning any further FT bids for that player use up a bid. Needlessly. So by bidding for Josue four times, Bull's used up all his FTs for the week. For a player he was rejected on.

Now I'm quite happy to leave this league and let someone else put up with Bull's pathetic FT bids. I do this while at work, and am part of a different league on here that, let's just say, is actually enjoyable for me.

So Bull can either stop being silly, or he can take over. Your choice Bull

i bidded only twice before you removed it actually.

so trippler 1

obore 1

jouse 2

4.


only used four bids.

if not then ill take trippler and obore and you can take jouse if you so wish.

No, you were rejected on Obore and Josue, then used three more on Josue taking you up to 5. And it's not about 'taking' players, its about making an offer the player and club would accept. Josue would not consider a move to Stoke if they said exactly what Sunderland had said, word for word. Hence the rejection.

why was Obore rejected?

Lads I'm stepping down from the league. This is meant to be fun, but I'm not enjoying it. And it's all down to one person.

I'll do results tomorrow, but after that others will have to take up the slack.

FYI Bull, reporting two of my posts wasn't a good move for the league. I honestly hope I never have to come across you again

PM Azzy.

Nice one Bull.

(Unless he meant someone else, but thats unlikely.)

Azzy, dont step down. You've been a great runner, and dont take Bull's comments personally, its only an internet forum after all.

Pmed him marky to not step down i ment no harm what so ever.

Bid 1/5

Josue to Aston Villa
bid 2.8m

he will have the chance to enter are midfield and we will make sure he can start , wolfsburg are struggling and with the manager only staying till the end of the season the cash can go towards getting a new manager or a new couple of young faces to the team after all they have a very good youth team and scouting system, for young talents to follow the likes of Dzeko for example.

I'm done lads. Results will be done by 1pm, then you need to find a new manager and agree who's running what

You really are a plank Bull

Hows that for rules 3 and 5?

This needs to be taken to the homepage going forward. This quickly got out of hand here and if Azzy does indeed decide to step down, then I'm also putting my notice in

Well that's me and Enigma stepping down then, because I am well and truly finished. I'll stop drafting the results I think, it's clear this is coming apart rather quickly.

GSC

you know what im not taking this crap you guys keep your league ill leave instead

you overeacted azzy to make your self look good , all i did was argue a point.

I love the realism and aspects of this league, there's non like it on here. Unfortunately, like Azzy, I'm quite limited for time on here, so providing assistance is the least I can offer, picking up my part. Don't forget without Azzy, this league wouldn't have had the restart it needed and has provided efficiency since day 1

I also don't quite have Azzy's patience to deal with certain characters on here and instead of shouldering all the problems, I think it's best to walk away now supporting Azzy's decisions. If he decideds to continue, I'll happily carry on my current role, my decision is purely out of protest supporting Azzy. So it's up to certain people to make things right with him

Bull no matter what you say, I'm done. I've not enjoyed a single minute of the last four weeks - it takes up too much of my time and your constant moaning is too much for a sane man to handle. I just can't enjoy it because it takes too much time from my day.

That, and this reporting of posts for no reason, is the reason for my departure.

Liam is now back full-time, so you have 11 managers (10 if Enigma leaves too), so all you need is someone to take over as Sunderland, who I've left in a good position, and you're all set. Maybe GSC would fancy stepping in?

serousilly though how did the moaning offened you ?

never did on euro div , nicks moaning never offends you , El Dois moaning never offeneded you.

i think you just saw me as a target and i have said sorry and done what i can to say there is no point to quit over such a thing.

Well I am quitting, no amount of discussion is going to change that. You'll notice that in my reasoning for leaving, your moaning wasn't actually one of them. Everyone likes a good moan. El Dios did my head in last week, but that's fine, it happens. There's no need to play the victim card when I've not actually said you're to blame for me going.

you just said above the reasons im leaving is your moaning and the reporting of the posts.

ive all ready stated i was doing what a mod told me as they are a mod and thought they could help out.

No, the two reasons are:

1. I don't enjoy it because it takes up too much of my time, and
2. The unnecessary reporting of posts just because someone told you to

If a mod told you to send abusive messages to someone, would you? If a mod told you to change your username, would you? If a mod has a problem, they have the power to deal with it. If they were offended they could report the post themselves, rather than you do it. Not even my 3 year old does what he's told

sorry again though it was just a misunderstanding thats what you dont get , i did not mean to to offend you or anything , i have said sorry so many times why dont you accept it and we move on like it never happened?

Because:

1. I don't enjoy it because it takes up too much of my time, and
2. The unnecessary reporting of posts just because someone told you to

Apology accepted Bull. Now you lot need to find a new manager, perhaps two. If I can do anything to help I will

Bull you really are an idiot. You should be the one to leave not only the league but 606v2 in genreal, all you do is moan moan moan and tbh it just brings a downer on everyone.

Azzy please don't leave mate, as said before you are doing a class job mate

you do know i have spoken to azzy nick over this stating if he wants ill leave the league?

you cant tell me to leave V2 if i wish to stay i have done no harm and i will stay on V2 nick.

Frak sake bull please leave...

Azzy please stay im enjoying this league and your doing a great job....I hope you re-consider.....however if you do leave and enigma leaves, then I shall leave.

Bull's staying, I'm staying, Enigma's staying, CF is staying...and GSC owes us some FT decisions

Can people please re-submit any FTs from this week. Serious bids only though, I'm not standing for this outbidding / copying nonsense

I have one bid from El Dios and two from me. Any others?

bid 1

Kieran Trippier, Burnley to Stoke - £3.5m

the offer Burnley said they would take from southampton we will make the offer to sign him instead, he will get great chances in the team and is talented and he can a lot here, we hope he takes the offer as he deserves to join the prem.


Sebastian Rode
Frankfurt to stoke
bid:6m

the kid is talented and we feel he will fit in perfectly here the gunners are apprenlty intrested but ours is real we feel he would do very well in the prem and it will also help frankfurt next season if they are in relegation battle

Thank you Bull

bid 3

Alexander Meier from frankfurt
bid: 4m

we feel he would be perfect for are AM problems and can promise starts , he will get Prem experiance and this thing may never come again at the age of 30 , its time he moved to the prem football we feel is suited for him.
