I accidentally made a bid on a player and after a couple of seconds I find him suspiciously familar. I realize that it's actually my own player which I've made a bid on. I find that quite funny and surely must be a bug..?

Link image of the player: Note! This is not meant to be advertising, just to proof the bug. If it's still wrong then just remove the link..

You can bid on your own player! Seen that quite often on transfermarket to get good money!

You can bid on your own player, and this can be an advantage to sell him with a better price, if you are a good manager.

Well - yes you have! You will pay the Sales Fee of aprox. 3K and have him again in your team.

This is an often debated issue - personally i dont bid on players, which show me bids from the owner

On the other hand: it happened owners mislisted players, so they had at least a chance to buy them back, sacrificing the sales fee and the team chem -> a 5 Star TeamChem player, bought back through the transfer list, starts over with 0,5 Star TeamChem

Yes - i would like to have the option removed - instead of include the option to retract players from the transfer market, as long no bid is placed - but without returning the listing fee.

I was sure it was a bug. It's really the first game ever I've seen this 'feature'. I really don't see the idea of it.

Don't you play GI, it happens on there, a way of getting extra money for a player especially if the bid is low.

Nope, never played GI.

Anyways... How often du you see Ferguson making a bid on his own player..? You can mention 100 of games with this feature - I'll still find it as ridiculous as I do now.

"Transfer-battles" are frustrating already and with a manager inceasing his own players is not making it funnier..

That's my opinion.
