There's at least 1 previous UK review :)


No mention of feeder/parent clubs? That's one of the major new features...

Remember there's a bit of a delay between writing and publishing! The review embargo only finished a few days back, so when originally written, we were indeed the first UK review. Even now, we're in the top three at the very least! No-ones fault for the mistake, but I'll make sure I'm on top of it for the future, cheers :)

Apologies for that. To be honest, this is one review in particular where I'd love to get into obscene amounts of depth, but would you really want to plough through a few thousands words of text? I know I wouldnt! Particularly lengthy reviews can really turn me off, thats for sure. Unfortunately I had to leave out the mentions of the feeder/parent club feature (believe me, it's by far the most used new feature) but I'm always moe than happy to answer any questions and divulge more info right here if it's needed.


Oh, and it's still chuffing brilliant!

I've already got to the end of the demo, so I'm itching for the official release now.

Definitely a good upgrade though ... there go the weekends for the next 6 months.

Saves me a job for the morning, thanks! Miles is a heck of a nice guy from my experience.

I know that 'demo feeling'. Didnt start a 'proper' game til I had the full review code. The preview stuff was nice to tinker with and help SI iron out a few bugs/errors, but there's nothing like having the full thing on your hard drive!

Got a cracking game as Wednesday on the go at the moment. Midway through season number two, and building a nice young squad of upper Championship standard players. Glenn Whelans an absolute star, as is Drew Talbot whose banging them in left right and centre with Hasselbaink up front. My main problems are Bougherra, who Norwich keep unsettling by declaring interest in the media, and finding a decent keeper who isnt prone to too many errors!

Aye, pre-match, half-time, and post-match team talks are all in 2007. Although, if you happen to be given a few games suspension from the FA........
