Additional Details

I placed a bid at 2pm on the 19th Dec for a player from an unmanaged team, knowing I could be outbid I checked the game regularly. At 6am this morning it was still onlky my bid, I checked again at 9am and another team had bid plus the bids have now been accepted, surely I should've been given time to up my bid? Should the time frame not reset after each bid to allow fairness. I may lose out on a player now I have tracked for months.

    However, the rule is in place to stop managers bidding to stop others from completing transfers. If bidding extended the window of opportunity I could keep bidding without any intention of actually signing the player.

    I would recommend bidding the most you are prepared to pay if you are bidding on a player with other interested parties. Then if you are outbid there is no issue and if you are successful you pay a fair price. If you bid a bargain price the risk of losing out will always go up.

    At the end of the day most managers make "undisclosed" offers so trying to second guess another manager's bid and revise your own is risky anyway, however long the window of opportunity.
