I've sent a contract to a player with a similar name to the one that I want, is there any way to retract it or will I just have to wait to cut the poor fella?
Cheers

I think if you go to pending contracts, you can select that player, and then you will be able to cancel the offer.

I tried that. I even went to the players page, but as yet haven't found a way to do it

Go back into contract offers just like you would if you were offering the player a new contract. Near the top before you add the amount and years there will be a box to check to retract the offer.

Winner winner chicken dinner! :)

Thanks for that, can't believe I missed that
