Select your team from one of the 64 teams listed. (You can, if you
wish, change your team name.) Whichever team you select, you will
begin the game at the bottom of Division 4.
There are 15 league matches to be played in each division together
with 'knock-out' cup matches.
Train your team. The more intense the training, the more chance you
stand of winning, but the more expensive the training becomes.
Change your team to comba the strengths of your opponents. Select
your defenders (D), mid-field (M) and attackers (A) on the basis of their
skills (S) and fitness (F). In your team, a player is either playing (P),
injured (I) or available for play (-). Remember that players need to be
rested occasionally to improve their fitness. Skill can not be increased.
If a player is not good enough for your team, he can be sold on the
transfer market. You can have up to 15 players in your squad at any
time.
At the end of each match, you will be shown the results of other
matches played that day, together with a league table showing your
position, games won, drawn and lost, goals for and against, and
points earned.
Your financial position will show your total income and expenditure
for the week together with a running total of your capital. You are
allowed to go into debt to a maximum of £250,000. Over this, you are
bankrupt and must start the game again at the bottom of division 4.
At the end of each season, the top 3 teams are promoted to the next
division and the bottom 3 teams are relegated. You keep the same
team for the start of the following season, but the player's skill and
fitness levels will be changed.
Can you win the double? Can you take your team to the top of
Division One? Will you be voted "Manager of the Year"? Or will
the crowd jeer as your team is relegated yet again?
GOOD LUCK. YOU WILL NEED IT
