SimonR Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Anyone remember this absolute belter of a game? My childhood - when indoors - was spent playing this on our old Amiga. I've just found this Basically just download the top link here http://www.sensiblesoccer.de/community/downloads And install and away you go. You can even play online I think though I'm just enjoying the "classic" game at the moment! Even has accurate teams up to (looking at the BCFC squad) the 12/13 season First game in 20 years and I even managed a draw against Barcelona, I haven't lost it. Thanks for letting me know about this BTW, Will be downloading this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrs Court Red Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Was it not also the first game to have different pitches and offsides? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTFiGO!?! Posted July 3, 2014 Report Share Posted July 3, 2014 Did that have animated highlights and let you make stadium improvements?You could watch the progress, as though there was a webcam in place Unlike CM, success was a genuine chalenge and to achieve it you needed to take your finance seriously. Everyone went in at the bottom flight (there were only 3 divs - which detracted from realism, but the clubs did have their own badges). Anyway, a must was to increase your stadium capacity from a generic 12000. You also set ticket prices, negotiated sponsorship deals etc. The highlights of the match were animated. Honestly, my memoirs from my experiance as an 8-10 year old was that it was a very good game. I don't know what became of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonR Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 I have spent several evenings going down memory lane on this site... http://thecompany.pl/game All the games just run with a double click, no need to mess about with emulators. All the Kick Off games are built into a hefty 6mb download! http://thecompany.pl/game/Kick+Off+2:+Return+To+Europe It's a great site, if there was an Amiga game you remember playing, it will be on there. This has so many great memories, thanks man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodEmperor Palpatine Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 My very first memory of a manager game was Kenny Daglish Soccer Manager for the Spectrum, as a pup used to play it for hours... very addictive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrs Court Red Posted July 10, 2014 Report Share Posted July 10, 2014 Tom you can't go and plant these seeds and then disappear. OTIB tourny sounds legendary and I'd be more than happy to organise it with others. Maybe we can work out a charity getting a few bob? Thoughts anyone?
