DA Baracus Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Just now, Arch Stanton said: Especially with Shaughan saying it had the best atmosphere. aye, 50-60 k people hurling sectarian abuse at each other is some atmosphere alright. I despise it and the clubs involved. Putting aside my obvious bias for the Pars/Raith derby, the Dundee derby is objectively the best. Very rarely a boring game and always a great atmosphere. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invergowrie arab Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Another crackin show. However, unpopular opinions for this pish. Football manager is shite. I suppose at some point in 1996, the first time I heard of it happening, someone winning the UEFA cup with Alloa was vaguely interesting. It's 2021 now everyone knows it's possible. The fact that you can win the Champions League with Spartans is why it's a stupid game and not a plus point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously I’d play at a super club and sign myself. The coaches would say I was “nowhere near the standard required at Barcelona” so I did what anybody would soon that scenario - I sacked the coaches. Used to bring myself on for the last 10 minutes of the Champions League final and make myself captain. Rock & Roll... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Really enjoyed that tonight, particularly the first 10 minutes or so before the first segment. Quite enjoyed the LMW but I'm sure I've heard it before somewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should stick his pal in one as well. He fairly stuck the boot in to st mirren for fucking up last week. In fairness he predicted it the previous week, although he didnt predict his championship diddy team being humiliated by highland league part timers, so good to see the other 2 didn't miss them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reinforcing how old you are when there are people talking about their dads playing football manager wasn't quite so magnificent.

Kyle Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 96/97 was my first one. I remember being completely obsessed with that game as a youngster, still buy it every year and play it casually now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buchan30 Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Really enjoyed the enthusiasm about the indirect free kick. I know it’s a repeat, but being a groundskeeper looks like quite a good job actually. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same, back when it was championship manager. Funny how basic and easy the early versions were. Used to always go AC Milan, play a 3-2-5 formation and scud teams about 8-1 every game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought every edition for years until about 2012. Bought it again a couple of years ago and it was just to detailed to get into. Think my favourites were early to mid 2000s I mind taking a week off work in late nineties when new game came out and playing it incessantly. Was great fun.

Yeah my early CM’s were on the Commodore Amiga. I always remember you’d start a new game and make a beeline to sign the two superstar players Mark Collis and Ferah Orosco from Cambridge United who had 20s for everything. Turned out they weren’t even real players and were two boys that worked on making the game. I bought it almost every year up until 2010 when the wee lass came along and the spare room had to get turned into her room. There was a spell of a few years in the mid 00’s where despite living in the same house I barely seen my missus because I was through playing FM.

Scary Bear Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 Why does the show end before the football season ends? It’s a shame. Maybe the BBC could get them back for a Scottish Cup special or a Euro2020 (in 2021) special? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
