Is it a bad show to bid on a player when someone from their home nation has agreed a price and wants to train him for the NT. I have every intention of maximising this guys potential if I get him.

The other guy bidding is accusing me of being disrespectful. What's your thoughts?

I don't think you're being disrespectful. You're just bidding on a player that is on a free market. So why should you feel bad (especially if you want to train him to the cap and maybe more?)

My thoughts exactly! I didn't even get him in the end. I told the manager BB mailing me where to go or I would report him for intimidation and manipulation of the transfer market. The manager he negotiated $1mil with will be extremely happy as he has reaped double that!

If you think he's worth that than that's ok. But if you think the player was overpaid, then please just report him and a GM will adjust the price.

I don't think he was overpaid for, it was neither me or the israeli guy who actually got him. He just underestimated how much the player was worth. All he needed was a few pops in OD and he could have been re-listed for a small fortune.

Well, then that's ok. Still not very nice of that other manager to try to get you out of the bid-war.

You didnt get him! Doh! Can you tell me his name so i can scout him? He's prob on the U21 database anyway but we'll need to make sure he's being trained.

I got my scottish guy, no need to worry there. This was a guy from israel giving me lip because i was ruining his plans of creating an all israeli roster.

Get him reported to the GMs for spamming you I'd say!
