Smartdoc 5,262 Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 When you've built up a fair sized shortlist (as I often do) and then finally accummulate enough money to buy one or two of these players, one of the most time-consuming and annoying things is the fact that you can only find out that a player is transfer-banned by going into his profile. I wonder if there is scope to add a column laballed 'transfer ban end'. This would save endless time clicking on each player individually to see who you can buy and cannot buy due to the current transfer ban (or not). Alternatively, this could be incorporated into the existing coulumn labelled "Trans stat" which in most cases just says unknown and adds little information.

lil_kick_kid 1,286 Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 Re: Display Transfer ban end date on shortlist page I think that this is a useful idea. It would be for me at least. As a gold member (yay!) I use the notepad but it would be a lot more useful if this was incorporated into the shortlist. Great idea mate! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lil_kick_kid 1,286 Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 Re: Display Transfer ban end date on shortlist page I'm surprised not more people noticed this thread. It's a seriously good idea and I think that more people should read/reply to this thread. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Logan09 28 Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 Re: Display Transfer ban end date on shortlist page Funnily enough I was just thinking the same thing the other day. Definitely a good idea. Possibly even better would be to have a coloured label over their name & details (like the green label for transfer listed players, or the red one for unavailable players), maybe an orange label to easily show they are still transfer banned.

Toro De LÃbano 1,950 Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 Re: Display Transfer ban end date on shortlist page This is a great idea. I used to have a huge shortlist with my Boca Juniors and would have loved to have had it then. Nice suggestion, Arslan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest luke_* Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 Re: Display Transfer ban end date on shortlist page This is a good idea as I agree it would save considerable time, however, it would have its disadvantages, for example, a transfer ban ran out on Pato yesterday, with Pato being on 10+ people's shortlists, I seemed to be the only one who remembered when the transfer ban was over and managed to sign him.

Not really a disadvantage as SM won't reverse it because Pato's transfer ban ended but somone forgot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest luke_* Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 Re: Display Transfer ban end date on shortlist page I never said reverse the transfer, I am glad I was able to buy Pato because the other managers forgot. Just if the transfer ban was viewable on the shortlist page, they might have been less likely to forget when the transfer ban was over. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Meis 126 Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 Re: Display Transfer ban end date on shortlist page actually i have the same thought as the TS, "Display Transfer ban end date on shortlist page" im too lazy to click every single player just to check out thier transfer ban date Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lil_kick_kid 1,286 Posted April 18, 2008 Report Share Posted April 18, 2008 Re: Display Transfer ban end date on shortlist page Managers should review who's transfer ban ran out (all of the non transfer banned players) like everyday unless you've got a huge shortlist. It's not a disadvantage because it's already like this now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
