We would like to apologise for the strange problems we are having with one of our servers. We are still trying to find out what the problem is and that may take a couple of days.

Until that time Sokker may not work properly and there may be problems with connecting to the site. Once again, we apologise and please be patient.

If you have made a sokker skin, it is now possible for you to send them to us, to become part of the standard skins available in sokker (test.css is the only one there for now).

Skins should be sent to sokker@sokker.org , in the .rar format and include all of the files that the skin needs. Only skins with the sign "Sokker" or "Sokker Manager" will be approved to become a standard skin.

Today (Friday) sokker will be temporarily closed, starting from 20:00. We will be installing a faster processor on the web server and converting sokker to UTF-8 encoding (so there will be no problems with alphabets like Chinese, Arabic, Hebrew etc.). The break may take a couple hours.

Transfers from 20:00 till 8:00 Saturday morning will be moved.

Today (10th Feburary) it is Sokker`s 2nd birthday. We are very happy about this, and the way in which Sokker is growing and becoming better and better by the day. Of course we would like to thank all of the Sokker users for being a part of this, as it would not be possible without you.

From Monday (6 February) a coach contract list will be available. Coaches sacked from any club (if they were previously employed), if they wish to continue their coaching career, will go on the trainer contract list. If you wish to have one of them at your club, then you can place a bid on them. The money goes directly to the coach, his previous club will not receive any of the money.

If the auction does not finish in one week (auction winner does not finalise the contract), the auction is annulled and the winning club pays 10% of the placed offer.

We have changed the system for assigning new teams. From now on, new users will be assigned the teams with the most points in the lowest available division. As a result, leagues will fill up more slowly than before as users will be spread out throughout them. This will allow active players to have a bigger chance than before to get promoted at the end of the season.

There is now a new option available on transfers. If the buyer does not bring the player in and the seller does not send the player away, it will be possible to cancel the transfer. To do this, if both individuals wait one week after the bidding has finished, the transfer will be cancelled automatically, and both users will have to pay 10% of the final bidding price to do this.

From next season the changes previously mentioned regarding supporter mood & numbers joining and leaving fan-clubs will be fully implemented.

Additionally the formula that regulates the influence of winning or losing on supporters mood is also to be tweaked.

The main changes are that it will account more for the strength of the rival team than before. Also league qualification games will have a greater impact on mood than other official matches.
