que? That was a masterpiece. The 2D engine was a decade ahead of its time, the only annoyance was the lack of depth in the transfer market (make a bid, then it's either accepted or rejected straight away, but most games were like that until CM came along).

It was an absolute masterpiece, and it fitted onto a floppy disk - it was unbelievably good. I was hooked on it in the mid nineties, I remember doing a complete database overhaul on it for World Cup '94 to include all the latest international teams.

I'd still be playing it now if it wasn't for a huge emulation issue - the "whistle" sound effect doesn't translate well to modern computers, it plays a system beep for about 5 seconds every time the whistle goes, and even if you mute it then there's a 5 second pause.

They must have really improved it within a year then, as 97 was the one I owned and it was terrible. I also had one of the earlier versions as well which ran on DOS...

SWOS, best intro to a game ever.
Pure hate for the fact that I couldn't never go three seasons without making AC Milan virtually bankrupt.

that McCoist game game, the back of it was amusing quote from him (apparently) saying "I haven't seen a better football management game than Director Of Football" :cool:

Premier Manager 64 was a bit guff.
