Championship Manager 01/02 grandfather of Football Fantasy! part 1

And here we are, year is 2001. Zinedin Zidan is at his best, Francesco Totti is at his prime as prince of Rome, Beckham and Giggs rule England, Oliver Kahn is the kaiser of goalkeepers but Ronaldo, Ronaldo is one and only, first of his name. It has been sixteen years and i still try to manage legends, i still live my childhood dream as I manage and watch those legends play game by game. So let me bring you back in time where legends walked the earth.

Now, for all of you that play or have played this game, this is an iconic wallpaper, or should i say, this is where it all begins. Of course, before this, there is a post "Let s kick racism out of football". If you are new and downloading this game thanks to my post, there are few options than you can notice clearly.

Start new game : this is where all the fun begins.
Quick start game : didnt use it but useful if you have two decades old computer :) .
Restore saved game : or load where you left before going to bed :) .
Delete saved game : option, if not used alt+f4 before u lost final vs .... or you started all wrong, tactics, players etc.
Network play : use if you are not the only one playing this game :D .
Game settings : you will get em when you get in the game...
Hall of fame : for people that play, it is where you want your name, for those who will play imagine your name besides Sir Alex Ferguson :) .
Game credits : bunch of unknown names who made this game and making my mouse powers worth :)
Web sites : never went there, internet was not available those years in Bosnia :)

You picked the best option of course, and the next thing that pop out is the wallpaper number two. Best option is of course start NEW game :) . For all of us who have in our hearts team we love it is an easy pick, but for you newbies take the leauge you know the most or just go ass followed and pick England :). You have Man Utd, Chelsea, Man City, Liverpool, Arsenal.... etc, sry underdog clubs :). Make sure that in this menu you pick YES in option use real players, and i always use NO in attribute masking but it is fun to play with it also. GO next after all this and we go to step 3 :).

And we are here, the ENTER NAME panel. Legendary names of managers where made here :). This is where your name or alter ego becomes material for hall of fame or wannabe manager stuff. Use password, nah, wont need it, unless you have family members using your computer and of course playing CM, so you want to hide tactics, good names, low cost good players etc :). When you finish writing name, obviously the next thing to do is to click NEXT.

Select nationality is the question for this window, its not hard if you know yours, if not just take any. Main thing about it is to make your path to your nation team manager and manage your national team. And once we made or choice, the next thing to do is click NEXT. This will all go under minute when you do it like second time :).

I brought you to the select your team panel. You here make your final decision about your team. Dont worry you can always start over and pick better one :). So only thing to do is to click on the name of the team, and in the right upper corner will be an option TAKE CONTROL, click it and your journey begins!

Thanks for reading this part 1 post, i will certainly do my best to make this story line bring you memories of time that passed even Nesta and Cannavaro, and hammer you like Zidan did Materazzi. Why is CM 01/02 a game, you will find out with me in next parts, so stay tuned for more, tell me what you think and share those memories with us steemians. He shoots, he scoreeeeeees :).
