I agree, i manager should be fire for bad performance. I know it´s hard to manage a club for season, and after all hard work, pum….. you get fire!!!!!!
I already point manager mobility, like in real live. Here, that can be arrange by a manager ranking system, than allow manager to get better contract, even when they go to a lower team in ranking. This can only happen when a manager get money at the arrival to the new club. I said it before… somebody disagree….
What happen now is than some manager leave because it is hard to get fired, but it is harder to work hard for 5 seasons (at least), to get just an average team, and with no change to win any big cup. Somebody pointed as well Dave, exmanager with Fortaleza, with all the good titles won….. and now he is doing so well with Nac, but not good enough to fight in CL….. In my opinion, his experience should count, maybe with 40 o 50 Mill signing bonus….. this will create new teams getting to the top, or managers improving from club to club……….. maybe this is said just because i would like the idea to see GETA winning CL under a better manager.

if you change the point system for manager then it should be harder to take over a team when u just joined with a small team. Getting fired is i think in all the past situation just because those managers did bad, so in normal board situations you should/would get fired.

I’m really sorry to know that Parag and Reimer have left. I hope they change their mind :(

About being fired I believe it’s healthy for the game, you shouldn’t get a team and be its manager forever. It would be acceptable in a manager game where you create your own team, give a name to it, etc. Here we have real life clubs and everyone wants to manage the most famous clubs. It’s fun to start it all over again.
If you say the way of earning points is kinda weird that’s fine, I agree with that, we still need to find a good way to give points to the managers. Things were worse when this “apply for clubs with managers” did not exist, as a manager could be fired for bad performance even when nobody else was interested in managing his team.
We have some positive examples of managers who got fired from good teams (Michelet from Cruzeiro and Andre Maia from Botafogo) and they simply picked another team to start again. Andre Maia was even able to get his Botafogo back after some seasons.
I understand your concerns, Alban, we’ve lost good managers fired for bad performance (Carlos Costa from Leixões was the first one if I’m not mistaken). This is a very controversial subject in my opinion and we’re willing to make changes if necessary so that the majority can be happy (if there is a clear majority).
Cheers!

the way of earning points is kinda weird to me though, get a low newbie team..do good and u get high ranked. Which results in takeovers in teams.
I think firing ppl should still be there if the board isnt happy with the results though

We’ve lost Parag from Bordeaux and Reimer from Juventus, we’ve lost other managers I can’t recall at the moment. We are going to lose more…aren’t we ?
You see, people get used to their teams, they also get very upset when they get fired because someone from lower league applies for their beloved club. I think this feature should not exist. Why should this game lose loyal managers ? And newcomers can become respected members of the community without kicking more experienced players out of the game.

p.s. in real life fired managers find new job, in Rubysoccer they leave.

Hehe, Gabriel, have you counted how weak should be performance to get fired ? I think in real life top managers can have about 1.5 seasons to prove they can stay.

My only prediction for this season is that I’ll be fired for bad performance.

Match engine enhancement: improved players tackling decision. At most 2 closest players will try to tackle an opponent at the same time. We expect this to reduce the “swarm” behavior.

Don’t be fooled by his 85 shooting, with high tackle for an attacker and incredible speed and dribbling skills Nicola is a threat to many defenses. His header skill is also a plus, specially now with better wingers usage.
Price is negotiable.

He improved from 82 to 94 in tackle (and the other attributes) the last two seasons, and jumped from 92 to 94 in tackle 3 games from the end of the official season. Given his tremendous growth these two years, he might still have some place for improvement despite his age of 24

Today’s most important improvement: goalkeeper injury.
That’s right. There is a 1 in 400 chance of a goalkeeper injury during a match. If you have only one quality keeper it’s better start thinking about buying another one.
p.s.: the current injury names used are the same for keepers and regular players, so they may not make sense. Please ignore it, after all, the important information is how many turns the player will be injured ;)

Country points obtained on CL or Libertadores are doubled. In other words, a victory or draw on these competitions are now worth twice as much country points as the same result on UEFA Cup or Copa Sudamericana.

When a loan was renewed the smallest asked period was used as the new loan period. For example, if I asked 36-144 turns the renewal period would be 36 turns, even if the other manager had originally loaned him for 108 turns. This will remain the same for existing loans, but for new ones the exact period will be used for renewal.

We have to find a balance between first team opportunity and money. I wish I had came up with a good formula already…I’ll raise this enhancement’s priority so we can work on it sooner.

Does that mean a certain team with a certain goalkeeper in Fastticker is also being investigated?
