I could understand this, if you would atleast want him in your team...Howson f.e. was ok, imo, but Vervaeke? I mean there are much better FAs out there which no-one made a bid for...he could easily get another guy from belgium for maybe 10k, with same stats...I just can't believe, that a team really wants to have Vervaeke, because of his stats for 25k....I originally wanted to pay 10k for him. I only want him in my squad, because he and Tiesj Benoot are good mates irl. No other reason here. Not even Lotto(a belgian team) is bidding so much for him...Why should a colombian team bid so much for him, and expect to be overbidden? If i think that I will be overbidden anyways, I won't bid...it's easy as that. If I am the one, making a starting bid, thats normal, but if I overbid someone on an already overpriced rider, thats another thing.
You seemed to mention me anyway

As someone who has a complete, realistic and strong squad of 30 riders with my season fully planned out, I'm really enjoying these petty arguments. Do carry on.

Yeah guys, even the argument that Wiggins is not a stage racer was less annoying then this 
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Right, nice try, but 2000 fine for Orica, and another 2000 for deleting a post.
PS: These riders are not available!

Just deleted my bid on Tschopp, I assumed he was available because someone else did him.

I think I zabl'd you, but I could explain myself better, I seem to get most stuff wrong here, so I assumed something that somebody else did on one of my favourite riders was right, but it wasn't.

Ignoring all the ridiculous transfer fails going on, I have a serious question. 
Will Piemonte be raced? It's on the calendar but it hasn't been run since 2012.

I have to say, not pointing the finger at anyone in particular and understanding that some people don't have a lot of time on their hands and so are often in a bit of a rush (sorry if I'm mistakenly implicating you here), I am surprised at how little research many people seem to be doing before firing off a PM at me (and I'm sure it's not just me) containing questions like: Is Rider X on your team? If so what are his stats? I've even received PM's from four separate managers in the last few days enquiring about the availability of Nicolas Roche, whom I sold a week ago. I mean I appreciate the eagerness and willingness but it takes you what two minutes? a minute even? to open up one of the DBs and check stats in there, and/or then leaf quickly through the transfers thread using the search function to get you the answer to your question.
But overall, transfers have been a fun experience (so far) and I've found negotiating with most of you quite enjoyable and, provided I can get a last couple of transfers through, my squad will look quite nice and a bit better than last year's 
Spoiler And yes, to the 4 or 5 more of you who inquired about Majka after I ranted about too many people inquiring about him, he's not for sale

in my defence Stromeon, I have asked for almost every 78+ rider in the game, even 2 epic riders.

Spoiler yes I know your post was meent as joke
Propably for the same reasons why I could not create a custom rider starting at Novo Nordisk or why Ollfardh is not a fan of me gifting riders to Novo Nordisk

@TMM
Very important.
@knockout
They need Valverde.
@all
I think TMM should be given an award for being the only person who wants money.
If anybody else wants it, please contact me.
