iacovone Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I am managing in Serie C2 with a newly promoted side and am only allowed one coach. I have my assistant taking that position. However in the couple of friendlies I've played I've not been able to see or use his advice. I also cannot turn to his advice for team talks. Is this normal when you only have 1 coach? Obviously I would like to use him so if anyone has experienced this before and knows how to rectify it that would be greatly appreciated Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently you seem to just have 1 coach and no assistant manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainPlanet Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 If he's definitely listed as assistant manager and not as a coach, then yeah it's a bug, you need to fire and re-hire. Are you also aware that there is a bug with the Serie C league that means you can't get past the first season? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iacovone Posted December 4, 2008 Author Share Posted December 4, 2008 I am Captain but it seems hit and miss as I've now played beyond the date in which the game is supposed to crash. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXistenZ Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 In FM09, can the number of your staff be extended? i mean, you start with a C1 club and are allowed 1 coach. if his club grows, will he be able to sign more coaches? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. You can also trick your board a little bit by signing a guy as an assistant manager and then giving him a different contract as a coach. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iacovone Posted December 4, 2008 Author Share Posted December 4, 2008 gavin that could be the work around to my little problem! EDIT: Nope, didn't work. I'm well and truly stumped by this - has anyone else experienced this before?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm well and truly stumped by this - has anyone else experienced this before?? What didn't work? Obviously your Assistant has to be willing to take the coaching job - if he's not, you'll have to fire him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iacovone Posted December 4, 2008 Author Share Posted December 4, 2008 What didn't work? Obviously your Assistant has to be willing to take the coaching job - if he's not, you'll have to fire him. I moved my assistant to a coach and hired a new assistant in his place hoping that would solve the problem. But it didn't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainPlanet Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 can you post some screenies? You may need to log it on the bugs forum and upload a save. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GavinZac Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I moved my assistant to a coach and hired a new assistant in his place hoping that would solve the problem. But it didn't. But now you should have 3 coaches, the first coach, the former assistant manager, and the new assistant manager Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iacovone Posted December 4, 2008 Author Share Posted December 4, 2008 But now you should have 3 coaches, the first coach, the former assistant manager, and the new assistant manager Thats what I do have but that still doesnt solve the initial problem - that I do not have any assistant advice during games.
