I remember why dont you and I'm 26.
I overplayed FM2005 and thought it was great. I've not played it for 3 months now and cant really be arsed to get back into it right now. When I do load it up though I've got 10 games of the season left with Swindon on course to make the champions league.
Yeovil is right. Football management games are for the winter when theres nowt better to do. As soon as it gets cold i can redevote my life to FM, much to the mrs discust.
