Contract renewing (I know it's getting boring but I wanna be sure)

[QuocBao]

I play 20 seasons and never used the second goalkeeper

If you sign before the season ends, he will sign a 3 year contract.

If you sign at the start of next season, he will sign a 2 year contract.

So, the length is the same either way.

But sign him next season after his contract expires because the signing bonus will be less.

You are wrong - whenever I leave it until the start of the next season, after the contract has expired, I get 3 years.

Well I've definitely done it before and it was 3 seasons - maybe that was because I wasn't sure whether to keep that player and so left it a few days.

Yes, mine 3 too, maybe depends the age they have then o whatever...
But yes the time u get is same anyway 3 years during a season o 2 at the beginning, the running time is same...

I'm with Dman2pt.
I re-sign my players every year at the start of the season rather than the end, to take advantage of the lower costs, but the contract has only ever been for two years when I do that.

Do you think it makes much difference? I'm just wondering whether the savings made over 2/3 years make up for the earlier renewal.

PS. I've not really thought it through and I'm only in Season 3, but I am interested.

It's not an earlier renewal, it's a very late one!

You still have the players for the same length of time, you don't 'lose' a year. So any money saved is worth it.

True. Thank you. (I should really have given it a little bit of thought. )
