One improvement I'd love to see next year would be that your filters aren't reset anymore when you add a rider to your watchlist...
And maybe filters on columns, instead of just sorting (e.g. a country filter would be great).
But we'll work with what's there for sure, and the main responsibility of the external site will be to not crash once transfers start

The search works that way, If you type SMR into it then you get all the Sammarinese riders.

ATTENTION
I seem to have miracously fixed a lot of issues and the portal is now reachable again and should work.
So you can log in again.

Fair point, and it works well for most of the nations - but if you're e.g. looking for an Eritrean rider and type in ERI, you'll actually get plenty of Eriks, Frederiks and so on 
So yeah, it's a usable solution, but I guess I'm too deep into that profession to be fully satisfied with it 
Nonetheless, great job, Ezee - I actually had some doubts when the site took ages to load this afternoon, but now it's looking really good

Easy fix - stop looking up Eritreans, why would you even do that in the first place, no one should do that

Updates on questions:
2. At the moment, it is no longer possible to add a timestamp to the bid history, mostly because we don't want to risk making an enhancement and possibly breaking the whole thing at this late stage. Will be taken up for next season if we stick to this portal.
Surprise!

When sorting by country and adding a rider to the watchlist it adds, but goes back to the original order system. A bit annoying when you want eg 5 riders from a specific nation. Any chance that can be changed, so it just keeps the order after adding a rider?
ALSO:
Maybe add the most important details to the first post, just to help managers to get started without having to scroll through irrelevant posts and questions

You aren't the first one asking for this, indeed rather annoying...

But well, I guess it's mainly an issue now for transfer preparation, not sure my shortlist will be updated a lot afterwards...

Point taken, but it is really not possible to add more functionality to the transfer portal just two days before transfers without the risk of the change possibly disrupting it!
This will be taken as a consideration for next season, if the portal stays.

I perfectly know how ugly last-minute fixes can be, that's why I said "I'd like to see next year" 
Would still prefer to have everything on the forum again, we'll see if that's possible.

A reminder to please change your default passwords after getting access to the transfer portal, if you haven't already.

I think I've found an error. I'll contact Ezee directly, but let me know if I should write to someone else.
EDIT: Fixed

Mentioned on discord, mentioning here to no-one misses out.
For next year, IF, we stick to the app can we please have a way to either filter out riders with no bid, or put the recent bids ahead of no bids, in the FA screen. i.e. have it laid out like we would have had on the form with recent posts (bids) top and riders with no interest not showing
Could we make it possible to bid directly from the watchlist? Or at least have it so clicking on the rider in the watchlist directs you to their relevant part of FA to make an offer?
This would operate more like Tracked Threads do here and just make things slightly less clunky.
Final request for the moment, as well as displaying team name can the manager name be displayed? Like on the forum yes team names are in post, but the relevant manager name is inherently always visible and especially with team changes etc it can be quicker to recognise a manager name than a team name.
Basically three pretty minor q.o.l. things. But it'd just be a little less clunky and mirror a little more what was displayed when using the forum.

A bit late, but I just want to say how I really appreciated this file and I hope we can continue to use it. Thanks a lot Ezee!
For next year, I hope to see an even better link with the DB so we can look up the riders there as well and probably some more sorting possibilities.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

The new site was better than I expected, and I hope we keep bidding on the free agents through this portal next year.
Would also be fun with some statistics from this transfer season if possible.
-Which manager bid the most times?
-Who had the fewest number of bids (from active managers)? Or who had the best success rate?
-Who bid on the most unique/different riders?
-Which rider received the biggest increase in one bid (total or percentage)?
-Which rider was bid on with the least time remaining?

The performance and reliability issues of the pcmdaily site make the game and especially the transfer season significantly less enjoyable for me.
The experience of using this portal for the FA market was amazing in comparison. Great job Ezee! Sure hope it returns next year. We can build on this.

The portal was nothing short of amazing.
I really hope we return there for next year aswell.
It was easy to keep track of what was going on etc. Loved it.
