Looking for help guys!!!
Hi all hope Im posting this in the correct place.
My son (10) is not a huge gamer and prefers to play laptop games, he been playing a football manager game that has been mislaid, Never had box just the disc and we cant remember what it is called.
It was a fair few years old, id say around 99/00 maybe even 01.
It was never downloaded onto laptop just played.
All I can remember from playing with him is that you could do the following -
4 players.
Multiple leagues from around the world.
You could play 4 managers of 4 diff clubs at same time and buy players off the other managers cheap as you controlled their reply to accept the fee u offered.
Chairman set you tasks to be completed by certain amount of years, you chose 2,3 or 4 yrs.
You could build stadium bigger, car park,cafe,floodlights,training ground etc. But if you was building one you had to wait for completion before building something else.
All contact was via emails (in the game not real)
players were graded by Stars 1,2,3,4 or 5..One being low quality etc.
you could promote a player from youth team.
you could also employ Doctor, physio,assistant manager etc and again all these were graded by 1-5 stars.

I think it was an EA game but poss not, do remember you could save wherever you wished during the game and it also had a bad issue of just crashing in the middle of a game!!

Hope someone can help my boy out as Id love to get him this game again.
 
Only ones i know in general are lma manager, premier manager, football manager, championship manager, fifa manager, player manager, kevin keegans player manager. Sure there are others but its somit to have a look at while u wait for a post with a better response to specifics based on what you said.
 
Why don't you just get him the latest version of football manager?

I'm sure it will be better in every conceivable way? And the game will run on just about any spec pc.
 
Sounds like Total Club Manager (which I think was 2002 onwards - in that case it's predecessor) to me, especially with the player rankings out of 5 stars, which in TCM is "talent" rather than pure ability.
 
With the stadium expansion, maybe along the lines of ultimate soccer manager.

You could do all that in that game, liked by many. Not for me, but i do miss the days of building up the grounds/advertisments, kitchen sinks ect...Premier manager:)

Good luck with your search, maybe take a look at champ manager 01/2.. laptop friendly, can be had legaly for free.
