Why has my transfer been blocked from my chairman?
The chairman make their transfer decisions based on a number of factors which are designed to look after the best interests of both clubs involved. The chairman acts as a level playing field to keep the game fair and balanced. The vast majority of deals are approved by the chairman. Please note that Gold Membership does not affect the chairman's decision.
The chairman bases his decision on a number of factors which are listed below.
- Age of player (too young or too old is not good business)
- Value of player (too much or too little offered is not good business)
- Players Rating to the average squad rating of both the selling and buying clubs(selling a star player for less than value or poor player for more than his value)
- Size of transfer budget (spending all budget on one average player is not good business)
- Your managers reputation level (less than 40 is a potential unsporting manager, 40 is a new player and a potential higher risk)
- Manager's length of service (brand new manager blowing their transfer budget or selling their stars is suspicious and unrealistic)
- Both manager's past transfers (Multiple dealings between two seemingly unrelated clubs)
