wild_oscar Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Is it possible to manage B or reserve teams when they're playing in a league? I've been trying to set up a B team in the editor, but when I put it in a league (portuguese 1st division), the "take control of the team" option is unavailable.

jod123 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I don't think it is possible but I could be wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wild_oscar Posted August 16, 2008 Author Share Posted August 16, 2008 I have tried everything in the editor, but can't seem to be able to control reserve teams when they're competing... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jod123 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I don't think it has anything to do with the editor. I am sure that you can't control a B team as well as the main team in the game. If you want to do this you could make another human manager in the game and then appoint them as B team manager. That might work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I mean. 1. Create a manager and take over the main club like you normally do. 2. Create a 2nd manager and make them unemployed. 3. Go back to your first manager and find the other manager so you can approach them. 4. Approach them and offer them the B team manager job. 5. Go back to the unemployed manager and accept the offer This should work if the manager has control over who he can appoint as B team manager. I assume he does but am not sure.

pelicanstuff Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 As far as I'm concerned the B teams are pretty messed up in any case. It would be nice if you could see their fixture dates, for example, when they aren't in a playable league - it would help planning in moving players between teams.

jod123 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 You cannot approach another human manager. You can for international management at least. You only can't approach a human manager for coaching jobs or any other jobs other than management. If you were England manager you could offer another human manager the U21 job so I assume it is similar for clubs as long as they are getting a manager's job.

wild_oscar Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 Can you test it in a quick game, please? (there are already built B teams for Spanish teams). If I click on the unemployed manager with my employed manager, I can only "send message" and "set nickname"... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jod123 Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I tried it in a game and no it does not work. I could offer him the job of U21 or U19 manager as Spanish manager but not B team manager as Real Madrid manager. It is a bit strange why you can't control the B team.
