This doesn't try to accurately simulate a footballing role. It's not an arcade football game either. 'What is it then?'
I hear you cry, exasperated at the totally inept way the suspense is being built up. Well, oh long-suffering reader, it's two to five player board game over which the computer presides.
Brian Clough's Football Fortunes is a football management computer board game
suitable for two to five players. Each player takes on the role of a club manager.
The object of the game is for each manager to successfully steer his team through
the season using his skill to make his team stronger as the game proceeds.
Each manager competes with human and computer controlled teams in a ten strong
league and the F.A.Cup. From the second season onwards, each team will also enter
a European competition as follows.
League Champions - European Cup
F.A.Cup Winners - European Cup-Winners' Cup
Remaining Clubs - UEFA Cup
