My beloved club are under a transfer embargo during a repeatedly attempted and then failed takeover bid from a Michael White - only problem being that the text refers to a 'her' which is going to get annoying if she does buy the club with a male name!

is there anywhere in the editor which lets you edit the sex of the chairman? i know i could just edit the chairman to be a female name but just wondered if there is a change of sex option too

Nope.  That happens to me too, I just ignore it as it does not affect how I play the game.
