Zzap July 1991
It's funny, old and entertains millions of people worldwide without telling a single
mother-in-law gag. It's football, and for some it's not just a game. Just ask England
manager, Graham Taylor who must somehow win the European Championship or else be
crucified by the tabloids!
Maybe you'd fancy a challenge like his - but without running the risk of becoming a
national villain. In this case, England Championship Special allows you not only to
pick your team but also to play for it.
