I live in Panama, a country located on Central America north of Colombia, I hadnīt ever heard of football managing games until last year, being a huge fan of football I decided that I needed to have one of those, I tried to buy one but they simply were sold only in europe after long weeks searching on the web I found a warez site in where I could download championship manager, I simply loved the game, I then heard about FA manager 2002, something like champ 01/02 but with graphics, and I had to have that, I ordered it on www.softwarefirst.com the only u.k online store I could find that delivered over seas, It finally arrived on tuesday, and what did I found........

1) The 3d mode, for reason simply doesnīt work on my pc, even tough I have a 64 mb graphic card and an Athlon xp 1300 processor

2) you can have as many non EU players as u want when playing on ur local league but u canīt have more than 3 when you play on the champions league, the totally opossite as the real thing.

3) you have lots of coach but u can only assign one to work.

4) The english law about work permits seems to apply everywhere according to this game.

5) You know that on Champions league after the 3rd game on a group phase you face the same team again but on the opposite venue, well here you play again the team you have played first.

6) all my players seem to be cup tied for the champions league for some mysterious reason

7)I was playing trough my first season as manager of parma I was 6th on the italian serie A and I had beaten the manchester united 2-3 at old Trawford on the first leg of the champions league quater final, then just before playing the second leg I got sacked for a reason I yet canīt understand

Now someone please tell me thereīs a patch that makes this game a little bit more playable

4 your 6th point on Champions League players being cup tied, a lot of them will be cup tied because they haven't been registered to play in the competition (an EA Mail u should have had during the game). Or some will have played for another club in the same competition of course.

Do not know where you get the game from. In Asia, the game works prefectly ok.
