### 5/5 — Love it!

*2022-08-28, version 2.0*

Sure I remember this game from the nineties. Loved it then, love it now. Very little skill needed so a great time killer. Highly recommended. At least 9/10. 🏆

### 5/5 — Possibly my favourite game of all time!

*2022-04-07, version 2.0*

Simple, addictive, fantastic! I would love it if they updated it!

### 5/5 — Amazing Game but hope for some Changes

*2021-10-10*

I love this game, I play it in my spare time religiously, but I would like to see some changes;

A leagues update for 2021-22 would be appreciated

There is a bug where some of the time you get to tournaments, it goes to Week 2 Wednesday and it freezes, it is incredible frustrating and I would like to see it fixed

Option for no away goals, it would make it much more interesting, and even UEFA themselves removed it

However, it is a great game, thank you for making it!

### 5/5 — A great game

*2020-05-22, version 2.0*

The Monet see this fought, agree wasted my time _ but no soon as download all the kits and logos and background that add to the fun of the game _ you start getting into it _ went few a session not notice the time add flashed by. This is a great little number to add to you footy collection  that you play on the bus or train probably miss you stop.

### 5/5 — Good

*2020-03-03, version 2.0*

When ever I do the career, it only lets me choose Scotland league 2 teams (4th division). However the rest is the best, making your own champions league or World Cup is simply awesome, I just need to finish the tournament before lights out.

### 2/5 — Great game but end of season’s a disaster

*2019-01-06, version 1.9*

Just finished an unbeaten season as Grimsby in League One. 33 wins, 13 draws, 112 points. There was dancing in the streets of Grimsby. End of season job offers weren’t up to much so stuck with Grimmers to see how the Grimvincibles fared in the Championship. Started new season. Up popped my fixtures. My LEAGUE ONE fixtures. I’m STILL IN LEAGUE ONE! Love this game, great fun, have played many versions of it over the years but there are some serious end of season issues with this variant. Happened in my first season in League Two as well. Finished 2nd, in the automatic promotion slots, only to not get promoted yet watch the playoff team beneath me go up. Ditto for last season. Won League Two to actually get promoted this time but Coventry in 10th(!) got promoted with me. Sadly gonna have to ditch it as it’s finally broken my spirit and I can’t face another 46 game League One road to nowhere!

### 5/5 — Simple yet addictive

*2018-04-13, version 1.7*

A very simple card picking football game, yet I can’t seem to put it down. Deffo recommend but don’t blame me when you’re still playing at three am.
