Default Old football management game

Hey guys,

Bought FM for the first time since champ man days, and it's got me and an old friend reminiscing of an older MS-DOS game we used to play.

From what we can remember: You started off in division four, with a standard set of players. It had a transfer market where you could buy and sell players, European competitions, and most uniquely, you could bet on the outcome of games. I can't remember any pictures of pitches, it was all text based.

Anyone else remember playing it too? It was pretty ahead of its time.

Not sure about that, but I can remember playing Football Director on the Amstrad CPC464. What a game (for the time)

Only management game I ever played other then Champ Man was Ultimate Soccer Manager 98-99. That was a superb game for it's time.

The BBC game brought out in 94'. My dad showed me it a couple of years ago, it was so terribly bad. Newcastle would win EVERYTHING!

This sounds like The Football Game -- the pre-One-Nil flagship game of the great Wizard Games of Scotland.
