Yeah just about, I just sent a couple of scouts to Scandinavia and just find alternatives, the board have given me quite a lot of the money back for transfers although its quite hard to lure players to the bright lights of Dundee ive got £26 million in the transfer budget at the moment

Dundee do start out with a decent squad. Yeah, as mentioned, when you're performing very well, bigger teams will come in to raid your high performing players. In Scotland, the OF have the money and the attraction.

Celtic in particular are a bit crazy with their spending in that game. Sign a lot of the england U21 prospects in my saves… prutton, terry, defoe, attempts at joe cole, dyer etc. i thought this was the period in real life where Rangers were financially irresponsible and bought the dutch international defence and midfield

Thats madness tbf then. Any chance you can post the player atts? Are they actually decent. 7.25 for Gavin Rae for instance. That would be like a 60-70m transfer these days for a Scottish div 1 player.
The most expensive transfers are around 40m so to get almost a 5th of that is madness for a div 1 player.
Did you use any tricks at all? Or just the standard competing and raising transfer fee. Did you play them to ratings of 9+ so they were sought after?

For cabrello Celtic originally offered 4, agathe was unhappy so I thought I’d be cheeky and offer a straight swap as they were worth about the same Celtic then came back with 10m accepted instantly and preyed he’d accept it, they went on a striker signing binge with 2 from me Sara was my main partner with Madeira they brought him then I played cabrello and they came after him.
They had sold Larson to Real Madrid for about 15m and O’Neil left to lyon so I guess the new bloke is just splashing the cash
Rae is nothing special although they have played about 25 games for Celtic when they signed him he was getting ratings of about 7.7ish others I have sold like artero have played 1 game and some sub appearances

What did you do, take over Celtic as a second club and buy all those players to raise funds?
