enormous salaries rise without renewing any contracts. Strange !

I play an FM14 game with Sparta Rotterdam. I use no updates, just the original database.
I won the Jupiler League (Dutch 2nd level) with my team last season and we got promoted to the Eredivisie.
My salary and transfer budget were pretty low and after the promotion it was a bit higher and the average salary in my team was about 2.500 euro a month with the highest paid player earning around 7.500 a month.

The second season was pretty good and Sparta finished 7th place in the Eredivisie, nearly missing out on European football.. The clubs financial status was pretty insecure with wages being somewhat exceeding the wage budget of around 107.000 pm.

Now the competion ended and the club received around 7 million euro from the Dutch FA for finishing 7th.
Suddenly I get the news that the wage budget for come season will be around 530.000 pm and the current wage budget is around 515.000 pm ???

So that is pretty strange and when I checked the squad's wages I see the players now earn around 15.000 - 30.000 euro pm !!!! This without recent contract renewal, and even players who are near the end of their contact suddenly have those huge wages (for very average players).

How can this happen ? Has anyone of you had the same experience before ?

Check their contracts for "Yearly wage rises"
I've come across players who are set to get 30% wage rises per year, the first thing I do is renegotiate their contracts to get rid of it.

This isn't it. Something is wrong with the game as all wages in FM14 have risen enormously. Robin van Persie now earns 925.000 a month lol. It seems like a bug.

either you've got the random currency change bug, where you need to change your currency in settings then return it to what you were using, or it's to do with either yearly wage rises or promotion wage rises.

A similar thing happened to me. Try saving the game and reloading it. I that doesn't work try changing the currency then changing it back to the one you use then reload the game.
