Description:

In It's Only A Game players are managing a footballteam from the English
Premier League. There are sixteen teams. Every manager is responsable for
making a teamsheet, the transfers and all the other stuff about the team.

It's different from other PBEM games, because in this game you can earn
money by giving a description of the Man of the Match. This description is
about the real player of your team. Example: If Micheal Owen of Liverpool
becomes a man of the match in this game you can earn money by give a
discription of the career of the real Micheal Owen.

Also the auctions are different and we have a prediction league in where
you can earn extra money. Also some other stuff is added by the board to
make it more fun and get the managers more involved in the game.

The last difference is the contracts of the players. All players have a
contract from 1 to 4 years and earn a salary. Combining those two you get
a price for what you can buy the player off of his old team. There are
some exeptions, but you will find that out while you are playing.
