    That is why he is so poor on your game, before the update he is an Ok League 2 player, but now he is class, I remember before the update he wasn't that good as I had him at Gillingham.

    It's probably not a problem, thought we established he cheats?

    How am I cheating, I just sign players with clauses where I pay in the future, yes I may sell the player before paying that, but most of the time I don't, how can that be cheating.

    Yet Powell is still 1*.

    It's not cheating, no. It's just exploiting the game in such a way that you're at a short-term advantage.

    I personally don't go about my transfers in that way. I prefer the hard graft of finding players, battling for their signature, coming across bargains like I did with Santon, Krul, Coates, Robinson etc.

    I do work hard to get bargains aswell, I think Maguire for 1.8 million is a top quality purchase and also Powell is a great purchase.

    The time when you were Gillingham and added another manager (probably Man City or someone of that ilk) to sign a reserve player and boost your transfer budget.

    Yep that's what I was talking about. How you accidentally took a screenshot showing you had two manager profiles active.

    Granted, the signing players with ****loads of incentives for short term advantage is a dodgy tactic, too.

    The reason why I had the extra manager at the time was because I was managing England on that account, I did not know you could manage England at the same time.
    Why do you keep on making me out to be ****, I still believe I will get promoted.
    Also why would I add another manager to get a good transfer budget when I go and sign players for as small as possible, don't make sense does it?

    Chalobah was signed for 6 million spread over 24 months if I remember correctly and Sordell was something like 2 million, nothing wrong about that.

    I don't think we've said anything personal, we've merely asked questions of how you play the game.

    I only come on here to share with you my story of what I am doing and what players I sign, I don't come on here to be interrogated, seems a bit unfair. Being called a cheat does piss me off a bit.

    Why does it piss you off? If you didn't cheat you'd take it as a compliment, you only react badly if you have something to feel guilty about.

    OK, I do admit, I do sign a lot of my players on terms where I pay in the future and it can be risky if I have to pay out a lot but I always work out how much max I will have to pay so I know I can afford it, with a lot of these players if I do have to pay out it will be a year or two till a pay out so I will be able to afford it.

    Yeah but when you put a lot of work into it to find the best players and get called a cheat I don't think it is a compliment, I do feel that some people may be jealous by saying that as they cannot believe how good of signings I get, but just say I am jealous of you, not call people a cheat, not mentioning any names by the way so this is not personal.
