The Original Football Manager

In this special edition of the podcast, the team talk to Kevin Toms, creator of the original Football Manager game - which was so popular in the 1980s - about what inspired it, how it was created and how it gained popularity. We talk strategy, realism and the sheer addictive nature of a game that launched a genre. We also discuss Kevin's upcoming book, The Origin of Football Manager, and the Android/IOS version of the game, Football Star Manager.
