Really Old Fotball Manager

[Arevall]

I don't remember much from this game to be honest with you.

I think the name was "Fotball manager" since the exe was named FM.exe.

The matches was text only, with time displaying as a circle in the upper right corner.

You could play as most english teams I believe down to maybe 3rd division.

ANY information on this game would be greatly appreciated. I used to play it with a couple of friends when we were really small. Maybe in 1992-1993.

I've looked for it now and then but I have never been able to find it :/

I think you ask this game http://www.abandonia.com/games/en/656/Bund...rofessional.htm (http://www.abandonia.com/games/en/656/BundesligaManagerProfessional.htm), all that you said fit in this game... :cheers:

Thanks for the response but its not the right game.

The game was entirely in text, so it's probably older than that.

I can't find the ****** game, I've been looking for years!

*insert frustrated mumbling here*

can maybe be this game: http://www.mobygames.com/game/cpc/football-manager-2, i think i know almost all soccer manager, but its this or the cm1.

Football Manager is a legendary game. :)

There's a very faithful remake of it around, and HOTU has a review for it over here (http://www.the-underdogs.org/game.php?name=Football+Manager+Remake). The very simple official site of the remake is here (http://members.aol.com/chchillsch/fm/fm.htm).

The original is still best played on an 8-bit machine.

EDIT: The text-only-and-with-a-circle-showing-the-time stuff makes it sound like it's not Football Manager after all. Hm. Perhaps http://www.the-underdogs.org/game.php?name=Football+Fanatic then?

Not quite right still ;)

The background was black.

I think the player names where in a list and their different positions was highlighted in different colors. Brown for attackers, green for midfield etc.

Damn, I WILL find this game, I don't know how though.

I can be Player manager? :whistle:

Don't think so. Only found Player Manager 2 on the underdogs but it seems to be graphical and also playable.

Thanks for the help though.

I was planning on going through every soccer game on underdogs, but their sort function is a bit faulty.

I´m talking about this: http://www.mobygames.com/game/amiga/player-manager, it was player manager 1, but you aren´t thinking in a game call Elifoot?

Can't been player manager as the game didn't have any graphics, much less any "gameplay".

No idea about elifoot, it seems unlikely though and I didn't find any older versions.
