1.0 PLAYER TRANSFERS
A list of completed transfers will be published after
each set of games, either mid week if a Cup Game has
been played or at the Weekend after a league game,
(however updates may appear daily on the website). |
|
|
2.0 CONFIRMING A TRANSFER
When a deal is agreed, it must be confirmed by BOTH
managers by emailing the games commissioner. The email must have a
subject title consisting of the word Transfer and the relevant
transfer template MUST be used.
|
|
|
|
3.0 BUYING AND SELLING
PLAYERS FROM THE TRANSFER LIST
A
player who is placed on the transfer list will go to the
highest bidder when the transfers are processed after
the next Cup or League game unless a deal is struck with
the selling manager privately. This is to make the game
fair for managers who have less internet access.
Once a transfer has been confirmed by both managers, it
cannot be cancelled (except by the games commissioner).
Tip: Only one manager needs to fill in a Transfer
Request. This manager can send it to the other manager when they send it to the games commissioner. The
other manager can then send the same copy to the games
commissioner.
|
|
|
4.0 TRANSFER DEADLINES
The transfer deadline for deals to be processed will be
10.00pm every Tuesday evening for a player to be eligible to play in
the coming weekends games, and the same deadline as the team sheet
deadline for transfers to be processed after the weekend games have
been played (Meaning the player will be eligible for any mid-week
games). |
|
|
5.0 GENERAL RULES
5.1 All players transferred are not eligible for
their new club until after the next League or Cup game
has been played after the deal has been agreed. |
|
|

before transferring him. This includes players returning from a loan. |
|
|
5.2
GENERAL RULES (Cont)
All exchanges of cash and players must occur at
the point of the deal being processed and cannot be done
in instalments, or based on future events. |
|
|
5.3

Players who have been scouted and added to the transfer
list will go to the highest bidder, these deals will be processed at
the same time as all other transfers, either after League or Cup
games. |
|
|
6.0 APPEALING AGAINST TRANSFERS
If a manager believes a transfer between two teams is
unfair or disadvantages one team by too much, they can
appeal against it to the games commissioner. When an
appeal is made, there must be sufficient argument
provided why the deal should be withdrawn. Furthermore,
a minimum of 2 managers, not involved in the deal, MUST
submit a separate appeal. |
|
|
7.0 TRANSFER REVERSAL DUE TO QUITTING/SACKINGS
Any
transfer(s) that takes place will be subject to a 4 week quarantine
period. If a manager quits during any transfer(s) quarantine period
that one of their current or ex-players may be involved in, both
inwards and outwards, then that transfer(s) will be reversed
if Kick Off feels necessary, with any player(s) involved returning
to their original club and any monies refunded to the correct place.
This is to keep the transfer system as fair as possible for all
managers, so no manager gains advantage from prior knowledge of
another managers decision to quit and to safe guard each club to
make sure that any new managers are not left with a depleted squad. |
|
|
8.0 CANCELLING
TRANSFERS
When a transfer has been confirmed by both managers, it
CANNOT be cancelled by either manager. Only the games
commissioner has the power to cancel any deals. |
|
|
9.0 TWO WEEK TRANSFER RULE
Any purchased player must remain in their new squad for
at least 2 weeks. Any transfers that include a player
who hasn't been at their club for 2 weeks will be not be
processed. |
|
|
10.0 LOAN RULES
10.1 Teams are allowed to be involved in as many loan
deals as they want per season. Regardless of if you are loaning a player to another club, or if you are
bringing a player to your team. |
|
|
10.1
LOAN RULES (Cont)
Loans must be negotiated by the managers, and both
managers must email the details of the loan to the games
commissioner for it to be confirmed. The subject of the
email must consist of the words "Player Loan"
and the name of the two clubs involved, the length of
loan and NOTHING ELSE. |
|
|
10.2
LOAN RULES (Cont)
A list of players on currently loan will be
available on the website. |
|
|
10.3
LOAN RULES (Cont)

subject to any fees, loans deals will be totally free for each party
involved. Any loan deals where there is money involved will not be
processed. |
|

10.4
LOAN RULES (Cont)
A loan deal must be for
a minimum of 2 weeks. |
|
|
11.0 RETIREMENTS
Once a player reaches 35, he will retire automatically
for no compensation, unless special exemption is sought. The
exemption costs a club £300,000 per season per player (cost of the
special trainer required to keep the player fit),
payable immediately at the start of each season. This means a player can play on until
the end of the season where he is shown as being 34,
but for him to carry on playing into the next season where he will
reach 35 compensation has to be paid. If no compensation is paid
then the player will retire automatically at the end of the season
where he is aged 34. However, a player will always automatically retire at 40. |

|
|
12.0
AUCTIONS
An
auction may be help by the games commissioner at any
point in the season. You will be given ample notice of
any up and coming auction (At least 2 weeks), however
the number of players added, their positions and general
stats will not be released. The reason for this is that
auctions should not be relied upon as a way of bringing
new and better players to your club. |
|
|
|
12.1
AUCTION
PLAYER STATS
Players
who are scouted into Kick Off will have a slight
restriction on what their main stat can be. The highest
that a scouted players main stat can be is one less than
the best player in that position that already exists in
the game. This is to reward managers for sticking with
player's that they already have and promote managers to
bring players in the game rather than rely on the
transfer market. This however does not apply to
goalkeepers, who's main stat may be equal to that of the
best goalkeeper already in Kick Off. |

Please, understand that these bids, among with the
transfers are enormous work for the games commissioner,
and following the rules is very important ! |
