Two years ago - yeah I know, seems like a million - we ran a highly successful FMS World Cup on CM0102. We actually did intend to run something like this regularly but I guess we forgot. Anyway, I brought up the idea in the OTT and a few people seemed interested so lets go with it again.

The game will be hosted by myself, and will take place on Football Manager 2007 - a game will be set to the 2010 World Cup Finals and once the teams are known they will be announced.

The dates and times are to be announced, I'm free anytime at the moment really - although how long that will last is anyone's guess - but it will probably be at a weekend sometime I would expect.

If you would like to play, says so in this thread and name the five nations in order of preference you would like to manage. We'll work out a pecking order or draw in due course.

The previous version - which WLKRAS will no doubt remind us all he won :p - can be found

and the resulting story can be found:
