Why is a computer managed team forfeiting against me?

I don't think this match was run correctly and needs to be replayed. A bot team should have a lineup like every other bot team. Also, I can't even view the box score. All that appears is a message saying the game is still in progress.

This team went inactive, and the previous owner didn't put the players on the transfer market. They just 'retired' when the team went bot. I don't understand why the computer managed team didn't send a lineup and play the game just like any other bot team. This still seams like an error to me.

I am in a tight conference race, where the point differentials matter. The 50 point forfeit win is likely less than what I could have gotten had the game run correctly. I also likely lost out on some training minutes.

I'm still trying to understand why it's a forfeit. Why didn't the computer send out a lineup and play the game? I've never seen a computer managed team forfeit a game, and I don't think it's suppose to happen.

It takes a couple of days for the botified teams to be completely "cleaned-up", including getting rid of high salary players and setting up a new lineup. Due to the way this is setup, there is a short window when things, like your game, can happen.

It also happened to me:

Think exactly in the same way and of course was unexpected and ruined my training in some way.

Forfeit is best for minutes if your setup is OK :-) 36 mins for starting players, 10 minutes for backup, 2 minutes for reserve. Your players can't foul out or get wound. Don't let blank boxes in your setup and you're ok

Depends...was expecting to play against a Bot and get a points difference so my starter players wouldnt play more than 27-28 minutes...and that was the reason some others played 48 mins on saturday. If I would have known it was on that way, my lineup on saturday would have been different.
Anyway dont know how i got great game shapes and the only issue was that I lost 12 mins on training in one of my players
