Or I might CD image it and upload it if I'm feeling nice. Probably won't link it here though. Bit sketchy legally even if they haven't made any new copies for nearly a decade.

Ok. Well I'm not sure if you'd feel better Pm'ing it or whatski.

Don't worry about it Ben, I reckon I can live to the weekend without it.

Either way is coolio.

Anyway, back to playing the little fucker. Check this out for Euro '96 group stage qualification awesomeness.

I drew 1-1 with them so I wonder if it did the random thing or I got through on alphabetical order.

Either way, next round without a win Cool

I have both cannon fodder and sensible soccer on my phone, both classics. Cannon Fodder is actually very similar to the original even on a phone, it's great.

Gay I lost 2-1 to the mighty Croatia. Mainly because I got the keys mixed up. If I hadn't broken my gamepad I would have trounced them.

Its all about the joystick really with SWOS. I've broken many a zipstick in the past after conceding last minute goals.

Can you get joysticks for the PC? And are they any good?

Dunno about the european club edition, but you can get the original SWOS  free, gratis and for nothing.

I did download one from Sonics place earlier. Also downloaded DosBox, but got highly confused. Its been a long while since I played with anything resembling Dos.

Then my cat sliced a hole in my hand. I'm in a foul mood right now.

This is quite possibly the best game ever made. I still play it (95/96 or 96/97 version, not sure) a lot and in my umpteenth season as Swindon, now in the Prem with Klinsmann and Chapuisat up front with Thomas Haessler and Paul Gascoigne pulling the strings in the midfield. Won the Premier League for the last 2 seasons because I am so heroic.

I'd like the 96/97 version but I'm happy with 95/96. I just did a few seasons on the old career mode. Then crashed it. Without Saving. The bastards. Won Div 2 first season, then finished 1 point out side the playoffs in Div 1 the next season. Thought I was about to make it into the prem.

Started again now with Leighton Orient for a bit of a challenge.
