Default Best Way To Gain Finances

Ok just a questin about finances.

I always seems to lose money per month rather than gain it.

Even when i havent signed players.

obviously the wages are a big chunk of costs and you cannot always get rid of unwanted players with high wages willy nilly.

So whats the best way to increase finances and bring i money?

You can:

1. Usually negotiate a new contract (including lower salaries with your players)

2. Sell on players

3. Loan out players that you do not need

4. Play friendly matches (this is a great way to make money)

5. Reduce the staff costs (scouts, physios, coaches, etc)

6. Operate without an assistant manager?

7. Get an affiliated club and apply to loan their players for 0% of their wages.

Just a few ideas.

Sell whenever you can and bring in younger prospects. Every time I take over a team I sell on the top earners for decent money and not necessarily big money but bring in players who will be as good. I got rid of Ribery for 17.5 and brought in Barnes for 7 with a salary difference of 25k a week, sold Lucio for 11 and brought in Sinkiewicz for 2.5 with a difference in salary of 45k. Ismael's contract was 40k a week and I let him run down until last day of his contract and he renewed at 10k pw.

Same thing at Milan, I sold Agero, Rossi and Pato reducing the wage bill by 300k, brought in Stancu, Kiessling and Huntelaar for only 69k.

Sell big buy small.

Don't renew contracts unless someone else comes in for them ebcause when it comes near the end hey will start asking for less.

You make a big chunk of your money at the end and start of a season when you receive lump sums for sponsorship, TV rights, finishing position ect.

Don't worry too much about losing money each month, it is the yearly picture you are looking at.

The graph in finances is normally a steady decline for most of the year, before getting a big jump upwards at the end.

As long as you stay in side your two budgets, then your doing your job OK. If things get tight the board will let you know it by reducing the amount of money you get to use from selling players. I once was only allowed to keep 35% of every player I sold, makes buying replacements a bit more of a challenge.

What league are you in? Money can be made different ways depending on what leagues you are playing in.

Get your hardcore fans to volunteer to be sold off as slaves to the highest bidder with all the money going to the club. Tell them it's the only way to save the club and they'll do it.

If not..... they aren't HARDCORE!
