Hi All,

I'm currently playing as the mighty Eastleigh FC, and as you can imagine there is not a whole lot of cash available for transfers so snapping up Bosmans is my main tactic.

It seems though that I don't have the option to offer contracts to players based in England from 1st Jan, though I can offer contracts to players in any other nation.

This has lead to my team becoming full of Bulgarians, Spaniards and Slovaks. Not that I have an issue with this (finished 8th in CCL1 last season) but it does seem a bit weird that I can only get English players on a free once their contract has actually expired in July.

I'm sure this has been raised before so please point me in the right direction of an explanation.

Many Thanks!

(and Play Up Havant & Waterlooville, doing the Blue Square South and Hampshire proud!)

You may offer a contract to players based in england only 1 month before the expiry date (and be careful if you have to pay compensation or not), if you manage an english team.

Six weeks actually, but you were on the right track.
