It's not possible. If you buy a player, they must be on your roster for a minimum of 4 days before you can put them on the transfer list. Combined with the fact that a player will take 3 days before they sell means you will have to pay their salary at least once before you sell them. It's a good idea, but this rule was put in place to stop people from doing exactly what you are talking about.

For reference, it's in the Game Manual under the Transfer List section. Last sentence of the third paragraph states: " You cannot offer a player for sale until he has been on your team for at least 4 days."

What you said is true, if he wanted to sell the player.
But in his original post, he said he would fire the newly acquired player before the financial update.

My mistake, thanks for clarifying. I don't know why you would want to do that since you're just going to lose money.

I think buying the high priced players and firing them is good for the game. Just last season I bought a 339K a week C on a Thursday 22 minutes before the cup game started and fired him 2 hours later.
BTW...It isn't sabotage because after you fire them they go back on the TL. Then if no one buys them, they retire. The country still has a chance to save the player.

Ok. this kinda validates my point a bit. Maybe its not sabotage because they can still be saved, etc. whatnot. But, it does sabotage the cup, to a degree.

What the dickens good is it for me, lets say, to scout all your team's games for the last 3 seasons, every strategy, every player, every shot you've taken, put them in an excel, and such, and come up with a gameplan strategy to use against you. When you can just buy a 339k a week Center, that your team could never possibly afford, to play literally have on your team for that 1 game, and then fire. so it essentially didn't cost you anything, since most people aren't bidding lots of money (unless trying to stack a cup win their way like yourself) on those players? As long as the player was purchased for less than 50K you win big on this.


This presents me with, either we need a small severance fee for firing players like 1/10 their salary or something.... OR... instead of a severance for players.... a transfer penalty thing, where a player cannot participate in the team's first match after being acquired, where this won't totally prevent these things from happening, it would slow them down some.


You don't see players in the NBA or NFl, or MLB, or any other sports get transferred from one team, and play that same night for a different team, unless the team they were transferred from JUST SO HAPPENS to be the team they are playing that night.
