WHAT'S THE STORY? Latest version of pioneering football management sim. Best played while sitting on an outdoor bench, ranting at an imaginary Graham Poll while your neighbours dial 999 for police.

TECHNICALLY SPEAKING: Consistently excellent management game. Perfect fodder for anyone who can't be arsed with dating girls.

HAS GOT: More playable leagues. Feeder clubs. Deeper player scouting. International headhunting. Billionaire takeovers. Worse managers than Steve McClaren.

HASN'T GOT: Foreign players wearing gloves in August. Worse managers than the Swedish pratt who used to manage England.

FREEBIES: We've got 5 PC copies of this great game, to give away!. Just email your details to webmaster.maxim@dennis.co.uk and we'll enter you into our giveaway draw. Closing date: 1 November 2006.
