This is one of the unique situations caused by the Covid-19 situation that we can't account for I'm afraid, so these matches will not be featured in FM21.

Akasha Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Hi everyone, In this french thread the user raised an error (?) about the scottish rules. He says that Scotland is the only country where there are 3 possible substitutions. (https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/54353395) He attached a screenshot where we can see the problem. I asked him the same screenshot inn english if needed. Are you aware about this issue ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mpage2701 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Apologies if this is in the wrong place, but i'm not exactly sure where the issue is coming from. Started a game as Arbroath and I don't have an Assistant Manager. I'm thinking that Ian Campbell automatically leaves with Dick Campbell, but it's seeming to lead to Arbroath not having an Assistant Manager as a listed position. It won't allow me to sign an Assistant without getting rid of another coach. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think Arbroath should have a particular assistant manager set at game start, this is for the Database & Research forum. If there is an issue with being able to sign staff this is for the relevantly named gameplay forum. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazRTaylor Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 I holidayed for a year and chose newly promoted East Kilbride as my team. In their first season in League Two (the second season in game), they are not entered into the League Cup. Nor do they they receive a youth intake in this season, despite getting a youth preview.

Tolol16 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Hi Guys, I'm the French dude who posted about the subs bug in the Scottish Championship. Here's the same screen as my post in french but in English this time. It should be only 3 as the clubs voted against the proposition to allow 5 subs contrary to Premiership, League One & League Two (https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/54353395) It's not a big deal as it's more helping the clubs.

seanydude Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Not a massive issue but Celtics game against St Mirren was originally scheduled for The midweek fixture list in august but was postponed due to that idiot Bolingoli. The game has it being played on the date it was moved to (September 16th) but if you get through the CL, that’s a champions league night which means it gets postponed and forced to play later on. Best thing to do IMO would be just to put it on the day it was originally scheduled like our game against Aberdeen is the Saturday after. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think(guess) it's because as Kelty (and Brora) are entered this year they have been added as entrants instead of Winner of Lowland League/Highland League from the previous season being set as entrants... can this be looked at?

TomF95 Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 Hi all, sorry if this isn't the right place to post this.

Not the biggest issue, wasn't expecting to have quite this level of expectation in my first season though! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
