I think I'm correct in saying that they ran Soccer Supremos on Amigas
which is quite unusual, before the game was taken over by someone else
with a different name.
I was playing it myself for a while but ended up all on my own in a
league of 64 teams and was told that they had no intention of trying
to fill the vacant teams. As far as I know this game has stopped too.
As for the programme, I wouldn't imagine they would just 'provide you
with it', whoever owns it at the moment. Certainly in the case of my
own game, the software that runs the game has taken an incredible
amount of time, effort and money to develop. Software that has been
written to run a specific game is unlikely to be given away, more
likely the owner would sell or license it.
Soccer Supremos made the mistake of starting up large numbers of
leagues and neglecting the leagues that they had running already.
Shame - it was a good game
