How this record is built

There is no coach-to-match table in this store. The record is reconstructed: the spells in coach_stints crossed with the finished fixtures of the clubs he was at, in the competitions StatsGem covers — 145 of these matches also carry a dugout the provider actually recorded, 145 of which name him. None needed correcting.

149 of the 152 matches carry team statistics (the store's begin in 2018) and 152 carry squads. A statistic the provider never filed is absent from the cards above rather than counted as a zero.
