why not using the transfer market, instead of making a second one with hundreds of special rules?

If you like to have a player keep him.

Well, the goal of a loan is if you have a player which you want to have a player increase in experience but no space to play him regularly or you want to help a friend in the lower leagues. The transfer list doesn't allow a 'buy back' option, and even if you made an arrangement by the time you buy him back, TPE might have fallen so far it gets you in trouble with the GMs.

I think I shall leave this to the original poster to explain his objectives.

i mean keep it or sell him and buy a similiar maybe with more experience., and the reason to help players is also cheating if you do it in a material way.

Especially is i a bit creapy when i look at your top team rule ;)

For smaller countries, the player might be a local player which you will find hard to replace. The manager of the smaller team is paying half the player's salary so it isn't exactly free help, it comes at a price in which he will also have to survive the following season without the player on loan.

Top team rule is necessary, we don't want farm teams of 300k monsters to loan these players to the top divisions for certain teams to rule now do we? Imagine BC Tooroo losing to a team with 5 monster loan players, it wouldn't be fair. :)


Darnit...I still have some free time. I think I'll start hunting for more suggestions to expand on.

so your scenario was, you have a player which is hard to replace, you can not play in your team but in a season with 1/3-1/2 level of Xp he is an unreplace able player in your team, where you can not find a decent replacement within a season. Is this summary correct?

The manager of the smaller team is paying half the player's salary so it isn't exactly free help, it comes at a price in which he will also have to survive the following season without the player on loan.

Taff price, he gets a superior player for free, paying just the half of the salary and playing on a higher level just through his connections to other managers ... But in the next season he had to play on the level of other clubs, who don't have friends with players like above to overpower their teams.

Ok the additional 20% of income through the more succcesfull games with homecourt which you ahd to miss next season is hard to, i can not believe that they could use that to.

Why you should farm foir them? I am a farm, i doN't give the player to another club who can not train them, and if i don't train them i could use him on my team.

So why is it in top teams cheating and with weak teams fair advantage, where he had to live with a just little stronger team next season as an disadvantage.

I see that ittotaly unfair^^

It's a little difficult for me to catch the drift of your post so I'll try my best.

Your summary is a little off. I have a player which I want to keep but know he won't be seeing too much playing time this season, and I'm willing to bite the bullet and keep on paying his salary while he plays for a lower league team.

2. By only allowing lower division teams to loan players, your 'superior' player is not a foolproof plan. And not all of my suggestions are set in stone, just what I think it would take for such an idea to work instead of dismissing it outright. We could also set it so that the team taking on the loan player pays the full salary. You better be successful in overpowering the opposition, because your economy is going to take a hit. The bigger the player, the bigger economic hit you will take. And if you promote and that player goes back next season, good luck surviving relegation. It still takes planning.

3. You cannot see why you would loan out your player to top teams. That doesn't mean the other 50k managers in the game won't. Your elaboration is pretty vague, you lost me by the second sentence. Anyhow, there is no reason for the teams in the top league to take in loan players. I have already explained why there is a necessity to prevent top teams from taking loan players. All avenues of possible abuse have to be explored.

just what I think it would take for such an idea to work instead of dismissing it outright

just giv eme the point why you need it, and can not make this with buying and selling and that must not be different players. So why is that necessary, and will improve the game.

it isn't just the salary, it is also the ability to get extra quality for free through connections. Which also generates extra money.

And is it no disadvantage to be stronger then you are for a season, even if you fall back after it ;) It is a clear advance if you don't have to do anything for it.

3. There is also no reason to loan players for medium teams.

Ah, for that you will need to ask the initial poster. I am merely providing the conditions that are required for his idea to work.

this conditions are required, i think the condition should be at least some disadvatages for the borrower.
