arsenal_2111 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 another 14, first game was FMH06, then i got FMH 07. FM07 followed, then FM08. FMH08 is my newest game Not long, but on FM07 i got to 11 days, with another game to 6 days. On 08 i have had about 5 1 day games, 1 2 day game, 1 12 day game, and my most recent game is 5 days. Hate to think what i could have done with my time, and to think it all started with a £4 pre-owned game! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike7077 Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I'd love to know if anyone ever played the original Football Manager that came on a cassette and was for the BBC Micro. It even pre-dates Championship Manager. That would seem like it was from the Stone Age, but of its day, it was revolutionary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My cousin used to have a BBC acorn in the early-mid eighties and FM on that was mega. Still memories of its game play are quite slim I do recall it being an excellent sim. I’m 35 now and been gaming for 30 yrs!! I have an Atari console first, then moved on the commodores and all the way up to the Amiga. Anyone remember ‘Kick Off Player Manager’ for the Amiga? Late eighties it came out and it was revolutionary. A fantastic sim and you could play to until you got to old and retired. Bit like Pro Evo’s very poor attempt into management sims, but obviously much more realistic. Hmmm, the memories. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My folks would only buy me a BBC Micro rather than the Commodore I wanted as it was more 'educational'. Football Manager and Elite were the only things I played, but they were both quality games for the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kain Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I'm 24, been playing since CM3. Just because I have a job now doesn't mean I have some sort of responsibilities. Tbh, if I was rich enough, I'd be living a hermit lifestyle anyway, so FM's like a godsend to me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought every version on release day since CM3 (1998) bar last years which i was a day late on due to dates being pushed forward, and CM03/04, which i had a free copy of courtesy of the guys at SI... Yes, I'm in the credits for that game. :-D Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icos Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I'm 24 and been playing for 11 years now (1997). I have only stopped playing CM or FM, when EHM came out. Now I'm a huge EHM fan, but every here and there I still try FM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggfwiedwice Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 20. I think the first one I played was CM 93/94 then I got CM 01/02 and it was amazing. Currently playing FM 2007. ^_^ I've been playing the series for about 7 years perhaps, management games for a couple years longer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giantplaything Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 24, got introduced by a friend into CM2. been stuck ever since. Its a shame my christmas tree formation doesn't work anymore. It was a thing of beauty. The best thing is my GF doen't mind me playing it because I bought her a DS so she plays on that whilst I'm on FM. Genius I think.
