I understand that you can buy your own player. But the problem here is that you have 200K, and somebody puts a bid 1M on your player. So technicaly you can now put a bid of 1,2K on your own player but in reality you have only 200k. So after this bid your account wil have a value of -1M. I think this should be prevented in some way

Your credit ist 200k € and for example, the transfer fee is 5%, thus you are receiving 95% of the winning bid.

Somebody puts a bid of 1.000k €, which results in a "real" credit after the auction of 200k + 1.000k x 0,95 = 1.150k € (or a "temporary virtual credit").

Now you are finally beating the bid, for example with a bid of 1.100k €:
- you have to pay 1.100k €
+ you are receiving 1.100k x 0,95 = 1.045k €

Your new credit after the auction results to:
200k - 1.100k + 1.045k = 145k €

So whenever you are winning bidder on your own player you are loosing money (transfer tax of the final bid) and the player will be listed as a "new" player with impact to fan-acceptance, merchandising, viewer attendance ...

Thank you a lot!
I had a concern just like JJ Team above did, but now I'm sure it works this way.
So (after you made a bid) you may have 200k on balance and projected transactions of "+1.045k" and "-1.100k" - both due to the same bid!

And yeah, that "new" players also can't play in Play-Offs and Qualifiers, leading to unavoidable forfeit.

But looks like they already couldn't play after going to the market and before buyback, just like the "boycott" the game. Looks surprising for me :)

WTF. I had a 1.9 million $ bid on my player and my debt was only -800,000 and my team still went bankrupt. That means I was plus 1.1 million. If I am allowed to spend that money, why isn't it used against my debt? Stupid weak ass rules. This game will get no more of my money or time. This game just lost a player of 11 years.

Yellowcake signing off!!

Stop complaining, it ist in the rules for years now.

You had 2 weeks to get out of the debt - you missed that.
Your team ist not bankrupt - your players are forced to the market.

On the 16.12. you will know, if you have been fired ;-)

I was out of debt.....I had 1 million dollars to spend last night. I even placed a bid on a player. How can a manager who is in debt, place a bid on a player and a new staff member? If a user can't change a bid after it is placed, why isn't that money counted towards my debt. IT IS Stupid and BB just lost a paying customer.

"Available cash after bids" does not count as money for the purposes of computing bankruptcy or the 5% interest penalty on a negative balance. Players must sell prior to the weekly economic update for these credits to pull you out of bankruptcy.

From the rules.

I am not disputing the rules. I am saying that the rules are stupid. If I can buy a player with that money(the money after I had a bid on a player) why can't I pay debt with that money. It is ignorant. And this game has runs its course. Still no app even though the world has been shut down due to this pandemic. Flash ends in two weeks with no replacement even being talked about. My iMac can't even run Flash and that is how it is been since late November. I can't even watch a game. I have been on the should I stay fence for some time, sticking with this dinosaur of a game, even supporting it with real money. But this just kicked me off the fence.
