Championship Manager: Season 01/02

In January 2009, Eidos - the company that holds the rights to the name 'Championship Manager 2001/2002 Season' announced that they would be making the game a legally free download and available only from their website. In order for the game to run correctly, you will need to burn the downloaded files onto a blank CD/DVD. PC/Mac/Linux Society; Championship Manager 01/02 is now FREE! This topic is locked from further discussion. Just incase you havn't heard it is now free to download from the champ man site:D. This was my first football management game. I'm sure I went to pick up LMA Manager and the guy in the shop aked if I had a PC as I'd be better off buying Champ man 01/02. Well I listened to the guy and bought it, and it literally took 1000's of hours of my life.

Lock up yer missus

It's time to don the sheepskin coat, get the teacups ready for the half-time rant and settle down in the virtual dugout for a lifetime of agony and ecstasy. The latest version of Championship Manager is upon us, and it is, to be fair, an update of last year's superb edition. But for those whose heads have been buried in the sand, here's a brief recap on the CM phenomenon.

It is now ten years since the game first appeared on the old Commodore Amiga, packed into three floppy disks. Even then, it was an all-consuming management game, with a level of detail and involvement never before seen. CM has since evolved to include more leagues, more information, more statistics and greater tactical control, but even after a decade of updates, at its heart CM remains the same addictive-as-hell game with a cast iron guarantee of hours, days, weeks, months of anguish, tension and sheer enjoyment. The game can become an obsession. You think it at work or in the car, wondering if Michael Bridges can cut it at the top level or just how long can Teddy Sheringham compete in Premiership ('no' and 'two seasons maximum' are the answers).

CM is also a breaker of homes - just ask my missus after she hasn't heard from me for six hours and another essential DIY project is left undone for another weekend. This is because CM is the nearest I will ever get to emulating Sir Alex, Martin O'Neill and even, because I am a glutton for punishment, Barry Fry.

Bestest

So we've established Sports Interactive's title is the greatest management sim ever, and for many, the greatest PC game ever. But what about the nuts and bolts - how do you turn Southend United into Real Madrid? How do you keep Doug Ellis happy without spending any cash?

Well, you take over a team (from any one of about 20 countries), pick a squad, train them, select a tactical system that works and then pick the side and watch them play - in an exciting, text-only way of course.

To complicate matters there are injuries, transfers, money matters, player contracts, demanding chairmen, demanding fans, demanding players and their evil agents, the media poking their noses in, the FA and of course other managers, like Sir Alex, tapping up your best players. If you need to know any more about the nuts and bolts, we'd suggest you check out the review of CM 00/01 (or even the original Championship Manager 3 release) - after all, this is essentially the same game with a few add-ons.

So, what's new?

What the already initiated among you will want to know is what's changed since last time. The most obvious is the new player database. Well, it's only about three weeks behind - Stam has been kicked out of United, Dean Richards is at Spurs, but Peter Taylor has not been sacked by Leicester yet. Foxes fans need not fret, however, as the database editor allows every statto/saddo to keep their files up to date, and for the rest, the first few updates should be available on the Internet shortly.

As well as the database being up to date, so is the transfer system - a few weeks into the first season, a new UEFA directive, which is far too complicated to go into here, comes into force. There are wordy, on-screen explanations, but basically there is less of the Bosman free-for-all approach to transfers and smaller clubs are more likely to be financially compensated for the loss of a key player.

The teams are represented in almost too much detail - take over Manchester United, Inter, Bayern Munich or Real Madrid and the board will want the Champions League, but you'll have pots of cash. Free download microsoft office mac full version. Celtic or Rangers want the Premier League and a good show in Europe. The chairmen on the middle ranking side (like Spurs, Aston Villa or Newcastle) will want a UEFA Cup place, but you'll have a limited transfer fund and really need to sell to get any quality in.

Anything lower and the quest becomes survival with very limited funds, and more often than not, a huge debt that needs to be cleared before any new players can be bought - only 35-year-old pros or teenage hopefuls are usually available for free. The point is it now seems harder than ever to get a team to rise above itself and outperform its initial 2001/02 standings - I should know as I got Spurs into the Inter Toto Cup in my first year but still got the sack.

Mac

Manager might

That brings me on to the first main modification - manager power. Fed up of chairmen giving you the brush-off? 'There's no money available,' they used to say. 'You run the team and we'll sort out the cash,' they patronisingly offered. Well, now you can deliver a 'back me or sack me' ultimatum. And in an eerie echo of the George Graham sacking, I demanded Spurs to put their short arms into their deep pockets to fund our Inter Toto campaign - and was dumped on the spot. Thankfully, I was rescued from the jobseekers queue by a plum job at Chesterfield.

A similar feature allows you to appeal to the FA against a sending off - do it once and you might get a key player's ban reduced. Do it too often and you'll get a reputation as a whinger and never be taken seriously again.

The optional attribute-masking mode is a great addition, which sometimes prevents you getting a full run-down of a player's abilities. You might know if he's a good header of the ball, but his determination, work-rate and stamina will be a mystery, until your scouts have had a good look at him. The football world is packed with examples of players who were not scouted properly and came a cropper - remember Savo Milosevic of who Aston Villa manager had only seen a compilation video of him in action. And there was the embarrassing matter of the new 'George Weah' picked by Graham Souness at Southampton who had to be pulled off after five minutes because he quite clearly hadn't a clue. The same applies now - scout the players first, then buy.

You can also have the scouts watch your next opposition. Do this and in the run-up to each match you get an automatic run-down on the other side - their preferred formation, how they play and who the key players are. Being told that Michael Owen is out injured is a big help.

Comparing two players side-by-side on screen to see who's best is also possible now. Some might find this useful, but after a few comparisons, we didn't really bother with it and would not miss it. Likewise the new memo system, which allows managers to put reminders on a players file, such as to renew a contract or look at a transfer prospect. The only modification we have yet to come across in our first three seasons is to send a player away for surgery on recurring injuries. Despite having a sicknote Anderton in and out of my team, my physio never once suggested he go away for this miracle cure.

The good and bad

As you can see, there are some great and some not so great little add-ons and improvements, but they are just that - little add-ons. In reality, this could be delivered as a patch for the CM00/01 edition; player updates are freely available on the web anyway and while the ultimatum, scouting and attribute-masking features improve the game, you can live without the other tweaks. At least they take nothing away from the previous incarnation.

As a stand-alone game, this is CM and superb as always. But there really is little reason to pay another £20-£25 for this if you already own CM00/01. However, as the game is so damned addictive and has a large following, we doubt Eidos or Sports Interactive will have any trouble shifting these by the barrowful. [Not to be accused of stating the obvious, this last line was written shortly before the companies' October 16 announcement that CM 01/02 has become the UK's fastest selling PC game of all time. - Ed]

downloads.. installs.. runs fine.. then tells me there's insufficient memory! is there a way around this??

Jamie Redknapp2020-03-253 points

The best game ever made! The virus lockdown means that myself, Teddy Sheringham and Darren Anderton have started playing a network game together. Teddy and Darren were fighting over who is going to manage Tottenham but Darren pulled his hamstring running to answer the front door so he had to settle for Portsmouth. I'm Liverpool of course but I had to go on holiday for a month to film a TV advert for TUI. Let's hope they don't go bust like Thomas Cook or travel agents will think I'm a curse!

I've downloaded Championship Manager 01/02.. how do I bypass the lack of a CD.. I've also downloaded the MagicISO program, but no luck.. there doesn't seem to be an .ISO file.. Please help

Glenn Hoddle2018-07-2710 points

Still the best football management simulation around! Me and Johan Cruyff still play this game today, with me being Spurs and him being Ajax. I still refuse to sign Paul Gascoigne though, even if Mystic Meg advises me to.

Paul Parker2018-07-278 points

Still love this game - it's never been bettered. Me, Des Walker and Steve Bull all go round Des's at least one a week for a network game (Bullie insists on bringing and playing on his own computer as it's the only one he's ever had & be doesn't trust anyone elses.)
It's brilliant, but they're always winding me up, telling me every goal scored against me was a deflection off my own boot. Bastads!

Steve Bull2018-07-274 points

Championship Manager 01/02 is still the best, way better than anything before or since. Me, Des Walker and Paul Parker like to have a network game at least once a week. Des is always Forest, Paul is QPR & I'm always Wolves.
We sometimes wind up Paul when he's not watching, & tell him that the commentary had just said that there's been a goal scored against him, coming off a deflection from his own boot, haha.

Terry Butcher2018-07-274 points

This is the best football management game ever. Me and Peter Shilton & Stuart Pearce still play this today, every Sunday. We all go round Shilt's house to play, as he's getting on a bit & doesn't really understand what to click on etc, so we help him out.
I'm always Ipswich, Pearcy is Forest, & Shilts is Leicester. Pearcy always brings some of his home-made fairy cakes, which is nice.

Gary Lineker2018-07-272 points

Brilliant game! I still play this today!

David Platt2018-07-270 point

This is the best footie management game, to this day! I still play this with Gary Lineker sometimes, network game, when he's not playing with Barnsey, Waddle & Beardsley. He's not keen on playing with them, so sometimes he tells them he's tired after Match Of The Day the night before, & we have a game. We like to play abroad & accustom ourselves with the different styles of play in different countries.

Peter Beardsley2018-07-271 point

This is the best footie game ever. Me, Chris Waddle & John Barnes so play this every Sunday - network game like. Have done since it came oot.
We always make Barnsey play as Watford (haha) coz I wanna be Liverpool, & then Waddle can be Newcastle. When Lineker plays we let him be Tottenham. Classic game!

Chris Waddle2018-07-272 points

Me and Barnsey & Peter Beardsley still play this game, every Sunday via network linkup. Sometimes Lineker joins in, but he's usually knackered after Match Of The Day.
I like to be Newcastle, but so does Peter, so he tries to be Liverpool, but Barnsey wants to be Liverpool. We usually make Barnsey play as Watford haha!
Lineker opts for Spurs, or ponces off to be some Japanese team.

John Barnes2018-07-270 point

This is still the best footie management game out there. Me, Peter Beardsley and Chris Waddle have a network game of this every Sunday. Me and Beardsley often argue over who gets to be Liverpool, but then we all argue over who gets to be Newcastle! I always end up at Watford.

@JD - had the same, worked when removed the mount.

JD2020-08-230 point

Game says not enough memory, refuses to continue and saved games are lost. Works fine for a couple of months (in game). Any advice?

DIMI2020-05-060 point

I think the patch works!!!! I am in September now and looks fine...but let's not rush. I will come back later on.
Thank you anyway.

Sam Charpenter2020-05-050 point

@Dimi, sure I´ll do that, just in case, but let us know if the patch fixed your issue.

DIMI2020-05-050 point

Sam,
maybe your problem is already answered below. DO NOT select the Argentinean and Brazilian leagues (when asked) in the game settings and see if it works.
Mine is still there though, still crashes after 3 seasons in July 2002. (new game)
Doubt it that the patch will do any good but will give it a try, thnx.

Sam Charpenter2020-05-050 point

@Admin, But I´m a bit disappointed that no one fixed the unbelievable amount of injuries, and then red cards appears more frequently after winning streak, as if the AI is doing it to increase the difficulty, so you have to kind of anticipate that, especially if you like me is playing with a team like Coventry with slow defenders & def mid, it´s a hell of a challenge!

Sam Charpenter2020-05-050 point

@Admin, the 3.71 & 3.72 is already in the 3.73 Patch, all included.

admin2020-05-051 point

Added the 3.73 patch, thanks. Could not find 3.71 or 3.72, hope they are not required.

ALAN SHEARER, yes I tried that, still can´t get past 1 November 1999, I have had no issues with memory or whatever, the shait file is corrupt or a demo, crashes always on that date, tried everything Cara dari kshowonline dari hp.

Alan Shearer2020-05-041 point

Lads, like. Any oot of memory errors could be due to not ronen' in compa'abili'y mode like. Alweys ron in Windooos 95/98 compa'abili'y mode, AND as administra'or like.

Sam Charpenter2020-05-010 point

DIMI, my save wont go beyond November 1 1999, it just crashes, I´m considering buying the original game, it aint cheap, costs like €45 used copy. But it would be nice if someone has a solution, patch or whatever, no update nonesense, just a patch fix, I suspect this version they uploaded is the Demo version, which I remember, before getting the OG copy, which I then lost out of pure negligence, but one could make it a full game with some kind of cheat that allows you to continue on their Vanilla demo. Anyway, I digress, but seriously I really really want to beat this game, since I´m recording it your YouTube also..

Dimi2020-04-262 points

Estrela, never had the problem you are describing.
The problem I had was about not being able to launch the game cause of 'not sufficient memory' and I went over it through some kind of 'compatibility test' (right click on the .exe file). Why don't you try it?
My problem now is that it crushes after 3 complete seasons. Tried everything (new save slot, uninstall and reinstall, different directory). Nothing, it doesn't go beyond 21 July 2002. I thought the file was corrupted, but same happened when I installed the game through another zip file (different download location). Any ideas on that?
Damn, and It was real fun after all these years....

Estrela2020-04-202 points

I managed to start one time right after instalation, played a little just to see if it works properly, everything ok, then saved and went to lunch.. Now when I want to start the saved game says 'insert cd'.. Than what I did? Let´s start a new one and.. 'free some memory first'.
So everytime I want to play I have to install it?
Whats wrong?
Anyone else with same problems?

Dimi2020-04-180 point

Guys help,
I've downloaded the file and 'mount' has gone just fine, game is installed (Windows 7).
However, when trying to start a new game I can't, a pop up message says I there is not enough system memory and I need to free up some. But this can't be true, there are not many procedures running in task manager and I am really low in CPU usage.
Any ideas why this is happening?

lancito2019-11-201 point

any way of making the brazilian league work?

alex72019-08-160 point

Hi guys!
There is no need to download any patch in order to fix the october or january crash!
The problem is related to argentinian and brazilian leagues.The easy solution is this:
When the game asks you to select the leagues just select all of them except the argentinian and brazilian leagues and your problem is fixed!
No crash is going to happen again and if you receive during the game the message for upload problems just click ok and resume playing!

I'll be quick Wes, as I'm about to start on Match of the Day!
Unzip the file; you should then have an ISO image (.iso file.)
Double click on that ISO image to 'mount' the virtual disk - Windows will treat it as through there were a real disk in the drive. Run setup.exe and off you go.
Championship Manager 01/02 is better though. Even that know-it-all Lineker thinks so!

Brilliant game this, the second in the CM3 series. The best management sim by far though, to this day, is the final game in that series - Championship Manager 01/02. Me and Teddy Sheringham still like a network game of this. I'm always Newcastle & he's always Man U. Classic!
