Lock up yer missus

It's time to don the sheepskin coat, get the teacups ready for the half-time rant and settle down in the virtual dugout for a lifetime of agony and ecstasy. The latest version of Championship Manager is upon us, and it is, to be fair, an update of last year's superb edition. But for those whose heads have been buried in the sand, here's a brief recap on the CM phenomenon.

It is now ten years since the game first appeared on the old Commodore Amiga, packed into three floppy disks. Even then, it was an all-consuming management game, with a level of detail and involvement never before seen. CM has since evolved to include more leagues, more information, more statistics and greater tactical control, but even after a decade of updates, at its heart CM remains the same addictive-as-hell game with a cast iron guarantee of hours, days, weeks, months of anguish, tension and sheer enjoyment. The game can become an obsession. You think it at work or in the car, wondering if Michael Bridges can cut it at the top level or just how long can Teddy Sheringham compete in Premiership ('no' and 'two seasons maximum' are the answers).

CM is also a breaker of homes - just ask my missus after she hasn't heard from me for six hours and another essential DIY project is left undone for another weekend. This is because CM is the nearest I will ever get to emulating Sir Alex, Martin O'Neill and even, because I am a glutton for punishment, Barry Fry.

Bestest

So we've established Sports Interactive's title is the greatest management sim ever, and for many, the greatest PC game ever. But what about the nuts and bolts - how do you turn Southend United into Real Madrid? How do you keep Doug Ellis happy without spending any cash?

Well, you take over a team (from any one of about 20 countries), pick a squad, train them, select a tactical system that works and then pick the side and watch them play - in an exciting, text-only way of course.

To complicate matters there are injuries, transfers, money matters, player contracts, demanding chairmen, demanding fans, demanding players and their evil agents, the media poking their noses in, the FA and of course other managers, like Sir Alex, tapping up your best players. If you need to know any more about the nuts and bolts, we'd suggest you check out the review of CM 00/01 (or even the original Championship Manager 3 release) - after all, this is essentially the same game with a few add-ons.

So, what's new?

What the already initiated among you will want to know is what's changed since last time. The most obvious is the new player database. Well, it's only about three weeks behind - Stam has been kicked out of United, Dean Richards is at Spurs, but Peter Taylor has not been sacked by Leicester yet. Foxes fans need not fret, however, as the database editor allows every statto/saddo to keep their files up to date, and for the rest, the first few updates should be available on the Internet shortly.

As well as the database being up to date, so is the transfer system - a few weeks into the first season, a new UEFA directive, which is far too complicated to go into here, comes into force. There are wordy, on-screen explanations, but basically there is less of the Bosman free-for-all approach to transfers and smaller clubs are more likely to be financially compensated for the loss of a key player.

The teams are represented in almost too much detail - take over Manchester United, Inter, Bayern Munich or Real Madrid and the board will want the Champions League, but you'll have pots of cash. Celtic or Rangers want the Premier League and a good show in Europe. The chairmen on the middle ranking side (like Spurs, Aston Villa or Newcastle) will want a UEFA Cup place, but you'll have a limited transfer fund and really need to sell to get any quality in.

Anything lower and the quest becomes survival with very limited funds, and more often than not, a huge debt that needs to be cleared before any new players can be bought - only 35-year-old pros or teenage hopefuls are usually available for free. The point is it now seems harder than ever to get a team to rise above itself and outperform its initial 2001/02 standings - I should know as I got Spurs into the Inter Toto Cup in my first year but still got the sack.

Manager might

That brings me on to the first main modification - manager power. Fed up of chairmen giving you the brush-off? 'There's no money available,' they used to say. 'You run the team and we'll sort out the cash,' they patronisingly offered. Well, now you can deliver a 'back me or sack me' ultimatum. And in an eerie echo of the George Graham sacking, I demanded Spurs to put their short arms into their deep pockets to fund our Inter Toto campaign - and was dumped on the spot. Thankfully, I was rescued from the jobseekers queue by a plum job at Chesterfield.

A similar feature allows you to appeal to the FA against a sending off - do it once and you might get a key player's ban reduced. Do it too often and you'll get a reputation as a whinger and never be taken seriously again.

The optional attribute-masking mode is a great addition, which sometimes prevents you getting a full run-down of a player's abilities. You might know if he's a good header of the ball, but his determination, work-rate and stamina will be a mystery, until your scouts have had a good look at him. The football world is packed with examples of players who were not scouted properly and came a cropper - remember Savo Milosevic of who Aston Villa manager had only seen a compilation video of him in action. And there was the embarrassing matter of the new 'George Weah' picked by Graham Souness at Southampton who had to be pulled off after five minutes because he quite clearly hadn't a clue. The same applies now - scout the players first, then buy.

You can also have the scouts watch your next opposition. Do this and in the run-up to each match you get an automatic run-down on the other side - their preferred formation, how they play and who the key players are. Being told that Michael Owen is out injured is a big help.

Comparing two players side-by-side on screen to see who's best is also possible now. Some might find this useful, but after a few comparisons, we didn't really bother with it and would not miss it. Likewise the new memo system, which allows managers to put reminders on a players file, such as to renew a contract or look at a transfer prospect. The only modification we have yet to come across in our first three seasons is to send a player away for surgery on recurring injuries. Despite having a sicknote Anderton in and out of my team, my physio never once suggested he go away for this miracle cure.

The good and bad

As you can see, there are some great and some not so great little add-ons and improvements, but they are just that - little add-ons. In reality, this could be delivered as a patch for the CM00/01 edition; player updates are freely available on the web anyway and while the ultimatum, scouting and attribute-masking features improve the game, you can live without the other tweaks. At least they take nothing away from the previous incarnation.

As a stand-alone game, this is CM and superb as always. But there really is little reason to pay another £20-£25 for this if you already own CM00/01. However, as the game is so damned addictive and has a large following, we doubt Eidos or Sports Interactive will have any trouble shifting these by the barrowful. [Not to be accused of stating the obvious, this last line was written shortly before the companies' October 16 announcement that CM 01/02 has become the UK's fastest selling PC game of all time. - Ed]

haggis222020-03-311 point

haggis222020-03-312 points

downloads... installs... runs fine... then tells me there's insufficient memory! is there a way around this??

Jamie Redknapp2020-03-253 points

The best game ever made! The virus lockdown means that myself, Teddy Sheringham and Darren Anderton have started playing a network game together. Teddy and Darren were fighting over who is going to manage Tottenham but Darren pulled his hamstring running to answer the front door so he had to settle for Portsmouth. I'm Liverpool of course but I had to go on holiday for a month to film a TV advert for TUI. Let's hope they don't go bust like Thomas Cook or travel agents will think I'm a curse!

Paul Gascoigne2019-06-200 point

Disregard my earlier comment

HSS2019-01-12-15 points

I've downloaded Championship Manager 01/02... how do I bypass the lack of a CD... I've also downloaded the MagicISO program, but no luck... there doesn't seem to be an .ISO file... Please help

Glenn Hoddle2018-07-2710 points

Still the best football management simulation around! Me and Johan Cruyff still play this game today, with me being Spurs and him being Ajax. I still refuse to sign Paul Gascoigne though, even if Mystic Meg advises me to.

Paul Parker2018-07-278 points

Still love this game - it's never been bettered. Me, Des Walker and Steve Bull all go round Des's at least one a week for a network game (Bullie insists on bringing and playing on his own computer as it's the only one he's ever had & be doesn't trust anyone elses.)
It's brilliant, but they're always winding me up, telling me every goal scored against me was a deflection off my own boot. Bastads!

Steve Bull2018-07-274 points

Championship Manager 01/02 is still the best, way better than anything before or since. Me, Des Walker and Paul Parker like to have a network game at least once a week. Des is always Forest, Paul is QPR & I'm always Wolves.
We sometimes wind up Paul when he's not watching, & tell him that the commentary had just said that there's been a goal scored against him, coming off a deflection from his own boot, haha.

Terry Butcher2018-07-274 points

This is the best football management game ever. Me and Peter Shilton & Stuart Pearce still play this today, every Sunday. We all go round Shilt's house to play, as he's getting on a bit & doesn't really understand what to click on etc, so we help him out.
I'm always Ipswich, Pearcy is Forest, & Shilts is Leicester. Pearcy always brings some of his home-made fairy cakes, which is nice.

Gary Lineker2018-07-272 points

Championship Manager 02 03 Download

Brilliant game! I still play this today!

David Platt2018-07-270 point

This is the best footie management game, to this day! I still play this with Gary Lineker sometimes, network game, when he's not playing with Barnsey, Waddle & Beardsley. He's not keen on playing with them, so sometimes he tells them he's tired after Match Of The Day the night before, & we have a game. We like to play abroad & accustom ourselves with the different styles of play in different countries.

Peter Beardsley2018-07-271 point

This is the best footie game ever. Me, Chris Waddle & John Barnes so play this every Sunday - network game like. Have done since it came oot.
We always make Barnsey play as Watford (haha) coz I wanna be Liverpool, & then Waddle can be Newcastle. When Lineker plays we let him be Tottenham. Classic game!

Chris Waddle2018-07-272 points

Me and Barnsey & Peter Beardsley still play this game, every Sunday via network linkup. Sometimes Lineker joins in, but he's usually knackered after Match Of The Day.
I like to be Newcastle, but so does Peter, so he tries to be Liverpool, but Barnsey wants to be Liverpool. We usually make Barnsey play as Watford haha!
Lineker opts for Spurs, or ponces off to be some Japanese team.

John Barnes2018-07-270 point

This is still the best footie management game out there. Me, Peter Beardsley and Chris Waddle have a network game of this every Sunday. Me and Beardsley often argue over who gets to be Liverpool, but then we all argue over who gets to be Newcastle! I always end up at Watford.

Mark Hately2020-05-04-2 points

Trevor, my old mate! I would never dream of using cheat tactics......
Pat! Nice to see you! Come and join me and Wrighty and Brooking for a game of 01/02!
The rest - if you want to play this heap of shite, run in compatability mode and as administrator. If you don't know how to do that, Google it. If still no joy then god help you. Better still, play 01/02 - far superior game.

Matt2020-04-290 point

Downloaded the game, installed ok.. Patches the same. When go to run the game i get the following error and have no idea what to do 'The code execution cannot proceed because msvcr71.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem'
I have but still the same error..

i downloaded the game yesterday and was playing fine, just trying to get on now and its saying the cd isnt detected. does anyone know of a way around this?

4ndrias2020-03-25-4 points

How do i open the game? After i installed it, nothing happens when i try to open the game. Yes, i've tried to open as adm.

MartinG2020-03-042 points

I think i actually got a solution to the problem with fixtures disappearing.
1. Install patch 4.1.4 and 4.1.5
2. Right click on the 'cm0304' icon, then hit properties.
3. Go to 'Compatibility'. Find 'Compability mode' and tick the box. Then choose 'Windows XP (Service Pack 2).
4. Then hit 'Security', and then make sure you give full control and allow to 'Every program packages' (or whatever it says on your computer, mine is in norwegian).
5. Remeber to run as 'Administrator'.
Also I started the game from the folder, and not from the desktop. When the game is started I hit 'Play game' and 'Load game', and not 'Resume last game'. Dont know if you have to do it this way, probably not. But it worked for me. Restarted the game and the computer about ten times, and the fixtures still there.

stos2020-02-15-3 points

where is the crack folder guys! please!

Karim2020-01-24-1 point

Hey, anyone having problems with CM 03/04 (also CM4) like fixtures disappearing and such need to know that one should ALWAYS run it 'as Administrator' and in compatibility mode Win XpSp3. It´s ridicolous really that no one on this site could´ve notified us about it.

Karim2020-01-24-1 point

@Lars Ricken, try launching the game as *Run as Administrator*

dientxpro462020-01-13-1 point

works fine on windows xp sp3

Bin2019-11-112 points

The problem is all the fixtures disappear when you reload your saved game. Applying patches doesn't do anything unfortunately.

CYD2019-11-032 points

Lars Ricken, I have exactly the same problem, think it happened after the latest Windows update as was working fine up until that point.
It happened on a saved game I was three seasons in to. I then deleted everything, reinstalled started a new game ad same issue.
Can anyone help? It's really frustrating!

Lars Ricken2019-10-164 points

Got it running fine, ran both the patches, started a new game, made an offer on Anatoli Todorov. Saved and exited, schmoke and a pancake, reloaded the game, all the fixtures had been deleted for all leagues loaded. Anyone else have this problem?

shitabyss2019-06-211 point

Hi, managed to get the game to run by using win 98 compatibility but it says i need the CD?
I have a virtual drive but this download doesn't come with ISO files to use with it... Please help!

Sam2019-06-090 point

fixed, if you burnt it on a CD/DVD like me, make sure to uninstall Daemon Tools if you have it on your pc, somehow it blocks the game to run, and yeah - don´t forget to run both patches (no need for NO-CD crack) after installation, also check the compatibility modes if you run into problems

Sam2019-06-082 points

How did you manage to make it launch, I mean it loaded fine and all, and I even changed to compatibility win Xp, for it launches and change the resolution and then exit back to windows, tried the patches and it´s still the same problem, even ran it as 'administrator', anyone?

Pat Nevin2019-05-110 point

You're welcome, Trev. Hopefully you check out my DJ sets on Spotify, like I suggested, next time you are tuning into this fine game.

TREVOR STEVEN2019-04-16-1 point

Mark Hateley eh? Can't believe you still comment here after what you did to me. Just because I wanted to play this and not attend your hotchair meetings with the boys stuck on 01/02 with your cheating tactics to own the AI. There was no need to break my 03/04 disc.. Thankfully Pat Nevin had a NoCD hack for this that he shared with Stevie Archibald who uploaded it to his Dropbox and I was able to get the link from Roland Nilsson who still logs on with Gunnar Halle's password cos his English is still shabby.
How is Wrighty anyway? Say hello to him.

Daniel Luis Pimenta Albardeiro2019-04-13-1 point

Apenas desejo instalar o aequivo no ideoma Portugues ...

FotisLebron2018-07-310 point

Hello i pached everything,when i start the game every time i have the problem with the 'cd not found'

Mark Hateley2018-07-283 points

By this point, the series came to a close. After CM 03/04 came Football Manager, which was basically just CM 03/04 with a new skin, updated database and Sega stamped on the front. CM03/04 was ok, but no CM 01/02. Me, Mark Wright and Trevor Brooking still play that today. We go round Trevor's & I play as Coventry, Wrighty plays as Liverpool and Trevor plays as West Ham. Me and Wrighty sometimes read the commentary out loud and add bits of Trevor's piss poor audio commentary from Actua Soccer 2 and Pro Evolution Soccer 2, haha.
