Player manager on the Playstation 1996. The match engine had a few key phrases on constant rotation "that's meat and drink for the keeper" "the shot was high, wide and not so handsome!" "everyone bar the keeper thought that was in" And a game that someone on here can hopefully remember. It was on the commodore 64, and I was playing it around about 1989/90. You had to start in the 4th division and work your way up, the players names were bogus, such as 'Raul Gascoyne' and 'Beter Peardsley' etc. I dont recall actually controlling the players, but just waiting for the scores to come up where (in terrible graphics) it would show the key highlights from the game, such as goals and near misses, and you didnt actually play. Well anyway, my best mate had a sleep over at mine and we didnt know how to save the game, so at 9 years old we had our first all nighter on the sly, and most of the next day. As we were about to win the 1st division, we had to go down for tea, and when we came back up, my mum had unplugged it because it was 'wasting leccy'. All our gaming progress had been lost, and we never had the heart to pick the game back up again. 30 years later it is still mentioned with teary eyes.
