It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.

GOD! I remember that!
Sure that was Football manager and not Championship manager?
[Edit]I've remembered now.
It was the original football manager game completely separate to the Champman to FM games now. (Despite the same name)

Sadly, not.
Back then it was safe to 'play out'.
I moved on to my first console by the late 80's. A Sega Mastersystem! However, that didn't last too long as moved onto an Amiga.
Suppose I've always been a PC gamer at heart.

Nice one Frank...I had that game.
Before the days of football on TV one didn't know what some of these players looked like so a blob on the computer screen was as good as anything.
