Same here too. Looked on the pre game editor and the premium contract file seemed to have them all unemployed so not sure if that was the issue. Did my workaround by using the basic files and subbing in some of the premium files (like attribute changes) and adding the license fixes. Some recent managerial updates haven't taken effect but they get sacked soon enough anyway so can live with it for the additional youth players and the same players, like Evan ferguson, not always becoming world beaters 

 

I've just gone back to the full set of old files titled classic FM. I had them end sept so just going to use them. Not sure what's going on with the new ones. I downloaded the new basic file and it didn't seem to do anything.

i had to register for another account with a different email address, bit of a pain

Found a version I downloaded just after transfer window and subbed the file but didn't seem to make a difference. Going to load all the old files and see what comes up. Is a strange one and not many others seem to be complaining about it

glad its just not me. Managed a mini workaround by subbing the contract update from the basic download into the premium files and seems to have fixed it but possiby not got all the latest changes and some other info missing but not the end of the world

 

I was just beginning to test which file was causing the problems. How do I get the basic file now as mine just defaults to the premium one.

Hi all, I've just downloaded the update and started a new game and i have a problem where a lot of more recent managerial changes (eg Thomas Frank and Ruben Amorin) and other new staff (even Sir Jim Ratcliffe) are listed as normal coaching staff and many (if not all) of the newer staff are on part time contracts. I don't think i've got any other .fmf files utilised 

 

same issue

hi guys, when i start a new game, and choose anderlecht, the chairman (wouter vandenhaute) is always in the staff, but in database is free, bug or??

 

Did you fix this, I've just been having it with Jim Radcliffe as a coach at Man Utd and despite becoming manager there, Amorim is also a part time coach

Either I've done something wrong here but Jim Radcliffe seems to be a coach not owner. Also Ruben is a part time coach
