Neither of you are making sense.
The patching strategy has been in place for a number of years now.
Aside from emergency fixes, patches always happen like this:
Release patch/early bug fixing patch.
Released within a week or two of game release, often on release day itself.
December bug fixing patch.
Corrects any bugs identified and also updates any changes to the db, eg new board takeovers, loadsn, free transfers, managerial changes etc.
February patch
This may fix any further bugs, but mainly deals with the transfers in the January transfer window. Beta Features may be added into the game to test them for the following years addition.
That is all.
