parsfanjamie Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I was just wondering if anyone on the forum has had any experience in real life coaching or management, and if you have has it come to any use playing the game? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArranoBeltza Posted July 26, 2010 Share Posted July 26, 2010 I coached kids aged 5-10 my freshman year of college- that's about it, and it wasn't for any important team or anything... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
roykela Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Coached girls and boys aged 12-16. Managed 1 League gold and a 2nd place in the league. 2 cup golds, and 1 regional silvermedal. Was fun, and i'm trying to use the same mentality in the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dar2000 Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I coach a kids team (U9's this coming season) and have my first 2 coaching badges but not at a level yet where transfer negotiating or scouting in FM could help me! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
twatty Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 There was a pretty massive thread about this here earlier. There was some guy nearly semi-pro managers I think. And there was good links your youngster to look up if desiring for future manager career. Cant bother too find it though as it was like a month back or so.

Trents Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 Never managed myself but work with the Loughboro Dynamo boss. He works in HR, I guess his man management skills help out when controlling players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayahr Posted July 27, 2010 Share Posted July 27, 2010 I neither a coach, nor a manager but working in football close enough to the decision makers and being able to influence decisions and actually negotiating transfer and player contracts. FM has helped me a lot in terms of market knowledge and details about strengths and weaknesses of players which I wouldn't know if it wasn't for FM. Yet, the FM data is not reliable enough to base any decisions on it and nothing you do in FM actually teaches you how to act on the transfer market irl. rather vice versa, working in football irl has influenced how I do things in FM - and alerted me to where FM is still far away from reality.
