Nobody complains, nobody demands for an overhaul, nobody screams the developers are being lazy and resting on their laurels. ![]() For over a decade now, football fans have flocked in droves to pick up the yearly update of Football Manger (previously Championship Manager), but the question is - why?

What is surprising, however, is that the game which does football management best is structured by the rather impassionate manipulation of databases and spreadsheets. Every supporter is a manager at heart and any game that taps into this desire is bound to succeed. Every fan of the passionate game has their own theories, philosophies and hunches on what their team's best side would be and how they should be playing the game. It’s un-surprising that one of the most popular gaming franchises in the UK is based around football management.
