    Convincing, well presented and has a new swagger about it. Impressive. [Christmas 2007, p.68]

    Too fiddly for a casual player and not rigorous enough for those used to Football Manager's depth. [Christmas 2007, p.86]

    The only relation to what Championship Manager used to be and what it is now is the name. All the talent left with Sports Interactive.
