Wondering - suspended player manager.

[Flip flop]

Local team, step 5, player has recently been sent off and suspended for OFFINABUS. Got a three match ban. Since then the manager has been sacked, and this player has taken over as player manager. Today he is in the middle of his suspension. Is he allowed in the dug out as manager? Common sense tells me no but.....

Doesn't it depend on the nature of his ban? I am sure they have different stipulations.

Either way, not the refs problem. As long as he is on the team sheet as manager I wouldn't worry. Let the powers that be deal with it.

Competition rules usually covers this. Agree with @SM though. You can not stop him even if he was playing as a player.
