Currently trying to break Real and Barca's stranglehold on La Liga with Malaga. Won't be long before I mount a serious title assault

Its horrible the way they count how long you've played each game, it really is information you dont need to know! I remember there was one year a few years back where my play counter was at about 5 or 6 days in total Shocked

Jeesus, it's been so long since I was addicted...Used up a vast amount of my late teens playing manager games.  Without doubt, the most addictive thing I've ever come across - and that includes blowjobs and weed!

The games were so detailed around 1996-1998 that I can't even begin to imagine what they are like now!  It probably takes a couple of hours to clear one match these days, does it?  I was a stickler for every milimetre of detail when I played those games....would love to have a crack at the current game, but I'd need to add an extra few hours to the day!




If I keep writing enough hagiographic articles on Man Utd, they might give me a job

It is unbelievable amount of detail in it nowadays. The amount of work that must go into making them every year. There is a tutorial that you'd have to watch to grasp it if you've not played since around 98, it's like a completely different game! You'd love it though...

It took me 6 years to do a 4 year degree thanks to this game!...i was slowly going insane due to lack of social life!...i read up on it when i was in college,it actually should have a health warning!!....there are some harrowing stories on the net where people have lost everything due to this game,plotting ways to get the game away from them,getting friends to hide it,destroy it etc...mad stuff!!

Cost me a minimum 50 points in d leavin. 4-1-2-1-2, that formation brought me some success through the years, Champions League Semi with Rushden and Diamonds in CM 00-01 was the pinnacle of my career. 2 lads started that game started the first game of my reign in the conference 7 seasons previous. The memories.....
