Hi All, just registered with FM-Base to specifically ask this question, but its a great site which I look forward to looking around!
I'm in 2049 on my current game of FM 2011. I have been manager of Leicester, Newcastle, Liverpool, Ireland, England, Man City, Portsmouth, Blackpool, Tottenham, and now Burnley. One thing that is annoying me is that I have desperately been trying to get the Liverpool job back for about fifteen years! This is the team I had most success with on the game and their stadium is even named after me! Vedrun Corluka took over when I left Liverpool and he has finally (after 25 years+ at the helm) left to manage England. I was made up, especially when the news flash came up that I was favourite to land the job. I immediately went to put in my application but on the job page the 'apply' button is missing. I can apply for any other job but not the Liverpool job. On this occasion I assumed it was because they had given the job already to the assistant manager (none other than Martin Skrtel!) so I decided to wait it out until next time the job became available. Skrtel didnt last very long and was sacked half way through the season, my name was the again linked as the strongest candidate for the job. However when I went to the apply screen I was faced with the same problem, no 'apply', just 'apply for all', but when I press that it applies for every job but the Liverpool one. Some guy called Espinosa ended up getting it but he has just been sacked, my name again is linked with the job. But low and behold, no 'apply' button! So frustrating!
Has anyone else come across this? I think it may be because I left when contract talks broke down, I kept rejecting their wage offer (me and my mate have this thing about getting our total career earnings as high as possible, sad I know!) and they let me go by mutual consent. Any ideas?
