Not anymore, players used to be 'cup tied' in certain competitions but these rules were dropped a few years ago cause they sucked.

Cup tied is still a thing for a bunch of competitions

Edit: specifically cups

Was just thinking about if this was a real show, getting the Head Coach from your main rival's team a few games before the championship (or whatever) would be such a big deal for ya know, using everything he knows from coaching the team to defeat them. But of course that doesn't come up once.

I don't know sports. Is there anything that would have (contractually/NDA, etc) prevented Nate from moving to a team like that mid-season for the reasons I stated above?

This was hilarious in American football a while ago when the Raiders coach went over to the Buccaneers and then they faced each other in the Super Bowl. The coach remembered the entire playbook and the Raiders QB got intercepted something like five times.

Ah well, I thought it was phased out in general but that was only UEFA competitions, the only place it really mattered anyway.

They took the head coach of their competition and made him assistant to the kit man.

Nate should be super hot poo poo by the end of the season. He coached West Ham into contention for the title (although they were apparently out of contention by the end) and bailed on a toxic owner without talking poo poo in public about him. You really NEED a scene of him turning down head coaching offers and explaining why he'd put up with an assistant job again.

I can't wait to entertain you.
If the actor stays around for a potential women's team spin-off, I could see him being the head coach while Roy stays the men's team head coach.

Oh good we can watch him be super weird and rom-com stalker-y around women again.

Yeah I don't want to see him coaching a men's or women's team or any more of his relationship. Just get him off my tv.

Just going to keep adding to this until I have a full season sketched out.

4.01 (59 minutes): Despondent about the leadership vacuum left by Ted, Nate tries to grow a moustache, quote folksy aphorisms, and cook biscuits. By the end of the episode, an inspiring speech from Higgins makes him realise he needs to be his own man rather than trying to recreate the past.

4.02: Roy is emasculated when the Richmond women's team brings on board Marta, a violent new star player who appears to be even more intimidating, grumpy and foul-mouthed than he is. Luckily, in the end, both characters make a speech about how much they've inspired each other.

4.03: Nate's burgeoning friendship with Tess, the women's team goalie, is misinterpreted by Tess as romantic interest. But how will Nate explain to Tess that he already has a girlfriend when he keeps awkwardly stammering and rambling through every sentence? And, worse yet, what if Jade sees them together at the pub and gets the wrong idea?

4.07: A very special episode where the issue of the gender pay gap in sports is resolved by a spirited and civil discussion in the locker room. The Richmond men's players unanimously agree to take a paycut to achieve equity between the two teams.

4.09 (98 minutes): A very special episode where we follow Richmond fans Baz, Jeremy and Paul on an adventure of their own - as they attempt to court Sandy, Taylor and Bettie, three equally clueless Richmond fans of the women's team. Hilarity ensues, particularly when Baz calls up an old friend in Kansas for some romantic advice...

4.12: Edwin Akufo is back! And this time he's attempting to set up his own all-women's league - one that's formed around outdated and sexist stereotypes and misogynistic appeal. However, by the end of the episode, an inspiring speech from Roy's niece makes him realise

No, he should go coach a different team and disappear from the show completely.

nate sadly died of a blood infection from a papercut he got while making a diorama of jade's childhood home, which she never disclosed the location of

he is survived by his parents who are now the main characters of the show

This also implies that Rebecca and Keeley set up the team so that the players would get paid less than the men in the first place.

When Moms tell their kids that the bullies at school are actually secretly sad and live unpleasant lives, that's usually not true. But in Ted Lasso world, it's true 100% of the time. And every episode is about showing us how sad the bullies are, how much Mom was right.

Rupert sues Rebecca and Keeley because they're paying the women more than the men
