Wonderful pod, I’ve shared it with pretty much all my childhood friends and it’s brought back so many fond memories.
As a man in his 40’s that is still playing a save from FM19 which was stated during the pandemic, this is the first time I’ve been tempted to ditch it in favour of a new save and going back to the old Champ Man.
Thankyou so much for a great podcast.
Let’s be frank, this show is exactly why podcasts exist. A subject so spectacularly niche that it simply couldn’t be commissioned elsewhere, but for those of us who understand the sweet addiction of CM97/98 this is essential listening.
UP THE O’s!!
…and I’m still hooked on the game!
Really enjoying this podcast. Proper nostalgia for all those that lost far too many evenings and weekends to the CM97/98 game. The chat is funny, nostalgic and dangerously good at making you think you still have time for ‘one more game’. It’s got me reminiscing about playing Bakayoko in a 10 position, with Tommy Svindel Larsen bossing the midfield behind him!
A great listen and absolute must for any CM fan (although I accept no responsibility for any sudden u... more
I’ve discovered this podcast way too soon. Now I have to wait a week for the next one. Once QKWHS went, I was always scouring the podcasts for something equal or better .. this is better.. absolutely love this and takes me back to my childhood. Keep it up Tom ❤️
This is absolutely everything that I could ever want from a dedicated Championship Manager 97/98 podcast! Well done!!
