Moderators Tempelman Posted March 16, 2022 Moderators Posted March 16, 2022 I can't remember having a club takeover, ever, but I am in the process of having my very first since the introduction of this feature. Tell me about the takeovers you have had and what happened... Quote
Administrators Derek Posted March 16, 2022 Administrators Posted March 16, 2022 I've had about 4-5 throughout all the FM series and typically it's resulted in a few extra euros to spend or someone comes in to clear the debt I've built up Too many transfers over a 36 month payment plan! I did get the sack once at Darlington which was gutting as I got them to the Prem. My absolute fav save ever with D'Alessandro as AMC and Tevez (Pre-West Ham) up front. Unbelievable pairing Quote
Moderators Tempelman Posted March 16, 2022 Author Moderators Posted March 16, 2022 Legendary pairing if you ask me! D'Alessandro is such an FM legend, unreal player, Tevez in some FM games as well! Quote
Administrators Derek Posted March 16, 2022 Administrators Posted March 16, 2022 Yeah this was not the Tevez of West Ham, City, United etc but was still some talent! Heartbreaking to be sacked like that. They had even named the stadium after me ffs. Quote
Moderators Tempelman Posted March 16, 2022 Author Moderators Posted March 16, 2022 I think I am going to throw with my notebook if I get sacked after the takeover... 1 Quote
Administrators Derek Posted March 16, 2022 Administrators Posted March 16, 2022 Don’t rule it out mate! Quote
Moderators Tempelman Posted March 17, 2022 Author Moderators Posted March 17, 2022 The club has been taken over by a Dutch billionaire, who bought the club for 1.4B, and let the club float on the stock market. The club has now become a Public Limited Company (Whatever that is..). I'm still there! Quote
Administrators Derek Posted March 17, 2022 Administrators Posted March 17, 2022 I'm glad you kept your job mate! Not that you weren't already spending a lot already but are there much funds available now with the takeover? Quote
Moderators Tempelman Posted March 17, 2022 Author Moderators Posted March 17, 2022 There was news more funds were available, but looking at the finances they are more or less the same (I think)... Almost 330M in the bank 1 Quote

Moderators Tempelman Posted March 17, 2022 Author Moderators Posted March 17, 2022 Couple of times now, I compete every year... But that is also because in FM22 players tend to develop more slowly than before, it makes building a team for me easier because AI teams seem to buy more not-so-good players... 1 Quote

I agree, I don't see AI developing their own players from the academy, hence they buy already made players. Makes my Saint-Etienne save more fun cos I am focusing on developing my own players. 1 Quote
