All we need now is a poll from @Dalian-Smith

Let's keep it simple.

Was Vesp rightly banned?

Yes or no.

After that, we accept the majority decision and move on.

Apart from I won’t accept him being banned. I won’t go on about it but I won’t accept it and will now be very weary of what goes on, on this forum.

Mate I like Vesp but he was basically attempting to recruit new Footstock sign ups , blatantly, at the detriment of FI.
You just can't expect to do that and get away with it. He's on Twitter, so why not just do it there? The answer is he is won't be bothered about being banned from here because he's obviously got his heart set onleaving the platform

A very dangerous president has now been set!

That happened when Trump assumed office.

Sky sports introducing artificial “crowd noise” means for the first time there’ll be an atmosphere at the Emirates.
How about that then Arsenal season ticket holders. Get a refund and get a better atmosphere in your living room. Win win.

1. For 30-60 year olds to fill their dwindling social lives.
2. For 30-60 year olds to avoid their missus’/boyfriends as much as possible.
3. To tear Football Index and/or Adam Cole a new one every time the garden isn’t rosy and our portfolios aren’t at least maintaining equal growth with ageing torsos.

I did say yesterday that I understood and respected a few people’s decisions to back out and I absolutely stand by that.
However, I feel it’s a just reward for those that didn’t check out yesterday.

If we sell to demand not a lot changes. Unless of course we hold players that will never be in demand. This new world is just going to require more patience rather than offloading a poor trade at a small loss whenever we like.

Calm down lads. It’s all on opta.
As if FI are going to pull a stroke, particularly after they went out of their way to pay Neymar being under no obligation to do so. It’s not the first time they’ve made gesture of goodwill payments either.

@Dan-The-Man It’ll take more than a share split for traders to find Jordan Henderson an attractive proposition. Even his missus regularly has doubts.

@dionysusthyrsus Not really worth comparing Maddison and Grealish for pb. One plays for a team outperforming Man City and the other plays for a side averaging a point per game.

@Ericali said in Brewster:

I'm involved now.... The price gap to Greenwood is too large not to get involved.

These 2 are both hyped youngsters at the No.1 & No.2 clubs in England.

Spot on Eric. Just surprising that the kid at the number 2 club is more expensive 😉

Can’t this not be solved simply by FI removing the pumping list? I cannot believe it’s still there. It’s like giving new customers a rope.

@PrideofPools said in Summer transfer thread:

Baptiste Santamaria - Angers boss admitted that they are preparing for the season without him. 13 million euros will get him, and Leicester, Tottenham and Spurs are all sniffing about.

I can’t see Leicester following up their ‘interest’.
Should come down to Tottenham and Spurs fighting it out and knowing them neither will win.

Echo chamber 😴😴😴

@NewUser609530 Do you mean ‘go and have another half’ or ‘speak to your beer’? 😉

@Dalian-Smyth maybe it’s time for you to add a little amusement to this ridiculous episode with a ‘would you rather have a beer with @Ericali or @MrWh1te‘ poll?

Dear Football Index.
No bullying going on here. Just a couple of blokes that don’t like each other who give it out in equal doses.

Caci at 80p
Cengiz Under at £1 if anybody wants rid?

@Black-Wolf said in FI Trader Feedback Panel - Suggestion thread:

@Coriolanus i reckon we will physically be able to see the delta on the Nasdaq software

I’d think that’s highly likely. Surely FI will have to list new shares on the market at X amount per penny from peak price up on every player.

@Marksandygill said in FI Trader Feedback Panel - Suggestion thread:

I have no idea how to word it, players over 30, with no IS or any safety net (even say a 50% IS when a player retires would help) this will surely just be a dead zone for both buying and selling as very few people will want to risk it?

This isnt good for FI or us, imagine how much Messi would be worth if we had a 50% buy back when he retires?

Of course, this is gambling...:)

That would be suicide by FI. Sell you Messi for £5, pay you out £5 in divs on him, then pay you a 50% IS when he retires?
Nobody (bar the very fastest few) would have been able to sell a retired player on the old IS anyway as FI always disabled it after high frequency transactions in a short time period.

@FI-Hornet-Joe If we have an open order book with shares capped you could potentially own a player worth £6 in the morning, they could play, score win media and somebody could pay you £8/9 without FI selling a zillion shares in between.

We’re all acutely aware of the additional risk recent changes on the platform attribute to traders.
I’m sure it’s been mentioned/debated, surely now is the time for FI to restrict the issuing of new shares. This would leave more upside for traders who execute, well, a good trade and hold a player of high demand. An upside that I feel is necessary given there’s no longer a safety net.
Personally I think shares should be restricted at say 500,000 per player which would on average allow a newly ipo’d player to reach £5/6/7 (depending on ipo price) based on 900 shares to a penny. Then if a player exceeds that price whatever it may be it leaves an open market to holders with easier potential for upwards price movement.
Several players do already have a significantly higher number of shares in circulation which creates a disparity but it’s not the end of the world provided they’re instantly capped. The problem with these players is that they have very limited growth available to them regardless of yields, particularly the £10+ club. It’ll take around £900,000 to move Sancho up another £1!
So basically imo this must become an open order book market once X amount of shares have been issued in a given player otherwise up side is too restricted against downside.
Big problem? Yes. FI would be sacrificing fortunes by issue of new shares which ensures this will probably never happen.
Interested to hear the thoughts of you chaps/chapettes!
