It was probably awful, but it sounded great Anyone remember a football management style game in a football mag in the UK in probably the late 80s or early 90s? You had to pick choices from weekly questions and they'd give you your progress in the next mag. Can't for the life of me think what mag it was - most likely Shoot or Match. That was my first taste of Football Management games. I did have a board game called Jimmy Hill's Match of the Day. Wasn't really management that much though.

What time, I have no idea. Well tomorrow is gonna be in 53 minutes, so yeah, I'm pretty sure sure you're right. But yeah, as @gunner86 said, they literally never released the beta exactly with 14 days before the full release, so it is definitely not "as always".

Lempicka Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Use to love the kit ads you'd see in Shoot. Always remember seeing an ad the Le Coq St Etienne shirt (the one with Super-Tele on the front). At the time, it was the most exotic football shirt I'd ever seen.
