I have had a few requests asking more info about FC.

Football Champions is a PBM (not PBeM). The turns are fortnightly, and one
turn costs 2 pounds.

Football Champions itself concerns managing one of the teams in the English
League, Every team has over 40 footballers, and three teams; Senior, Youth and
Reserve. More players can be bought. The player has to decide the training
for each team plus the formations for S and Y teams. There is about 16
positions to put your players (so choosing right line is important). There is
also a few minor things to do. Each footballer has some 25 skills, and the
team is chosen based on these skills (so it's not an easy task).

After the games for that turn are played, you receive a short description of
the game. It lists all the important things that occured, giving a good idea on
who did well and didn't.

Well, there's a lot more to tell, but if your interested, try it. I feel this
game is lot of fun.

I send the address of the company later, as I don't have it with me right now.
