Football Manager 2006 (Mac/PC CD)

Had this and gave it to someone on load, but never got it back, so bought it again, love this game, sure you can get modern up to date versions, with all the flashing lights and sirens ! but this one does it for me, not to complicated, get a team and manage them. Lower div teams are better, no cash for buying, use you're wits to outsmart others. Great game.

Won everything with Leeds

Perfect condition.Game is as amazing as i remember, even if I had to buy an old laptop to play it on!

Didn’t work

Can't get it to run on Windows 7,,I've ran champ01/02 season no prob so can't understand it,,I'm either getting a "please run as administrator " message (which I am) or another message about a "fm exe file",,,,any one help....pleaseeeeeee???I'm not going to rate the game low because I know all fm games rock.Just need help!!!

Throughout my childhood I loved football manager games and I still do, although lately I can't seem to find a game worth playing. The interface on this game is painfully complicated and nothing is intuitive. When you do finally work out which buttons do what the gameplay is painfully slow, and you have to spend hours dealing with pointless tiny issues and reading emails that are completely irrelevant. The game engine itself is slow and the highlights annoyingly slow, not to mention visually about as appealing as last nights left over doner kebab.I think if you're a real football anorak, and are happy to spend ten minutes in the run up to each match, and another ten minutes watching the match then you could love this game, but for the fact that even after all this effort you often inexplicably lose a game, and never, I repeat never seem to beat a team that is better than you on paper.If you like your games a bit more immediate, shorter games, less hassle and just lots of wheeling and dealing on the transfer market, with a bit of tactics and training thrown in this really is not the game. The sad thing is, I don't know what is, there seems to be so much focus on complicated detail in the latest batch of football manager games that they forgot to add that vital element - it needs to be fun.

I've been playing Champ games since they begun & racked up 25 seasons alone on the green box version on the Amiga. Moving onto CM2, I loved it even more, but then something weird happened - CM 97/98 was sooo biased towards the computer it was unreal!! I'd often have more possession, more shots (18-4 for example) & lose 2-0, 2-1, etc. Thinking this was just a blip I went back to CM2 until falling in love with CM 01/02 again.I looked forward to the Football Manager games in anticipation, but although everything has been improved on the surface, the game is sooo unrealistic that CM 97/98 strikes to mind. With a strong Liverpool team, I have played 25 games & am currently in 15th position without a win in the last 10 matches!! Using a good attacking 4-4-2 at home & a defence-minded counter-attacking 4-4-2 away from home I started off quite well but due toplayers morale dropping like flies (Realistically playing them in the reserves should help them big time but not here) & the players getting injured left right & center, even on normal tackling, I just don't stand a chance. It's a real shame as SI have definitely taken the game one step forwards, three steps back. Feeling frustrated, I have gone back to the (IMHO) definitive version, CM 02/03 on the Xbox - I just hope that SI sort themselves out & listen to criticism & feedback before the 2008 version hits the market...

Fast delivery - great game. Played FM 2004 many years back and this later version is very good.

Tutto ok iper il gioco . La versione in vendita in Italia aveva anche scelta della lingua mentre questo è possibile solo in inglese
