kensteidel Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 13 out of 20 . Good enough, considering that CM 2 was my first CM game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFuller Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 16/20. I could've done better, but considering I didn't really get into football until the late 90s, that perhaps wasn't too bad a score. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pallett1988 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 16/20 for me too - Not bad considering I was 4, going on 5, when this game came out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen Sandman Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 14. 17 is almost a trick question. 15 is annoying as positionally not accurate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not bad, either. For what it's worth, I was 2, so about a couple of years younger than yourself. I seem to remember doing this quiz when it was first published last year, and if I recall correctly, my score was round about the same level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordieboy52 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 19/20 went Dino Baggio, not Antonio Conte - was my first computer game obsession. Both Don Hutchison and Mike Marsh were rated like that and were immense, but not as good as Paul Warhurst and Darren Eadie (after about 3 years).

AlynDavies Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 11/20 for me, got a few wrong! Mainly the foreign ones as Nai Lampety was about my only buy off that transfer list. Off memory I used to play a 4 player game and buy and sell players between those teams and start with pretty much my dream team, not necessarily the best players but ones I used to like. Cantona, Shearer, Fowler, Giggs, Mcmanaman, Lampety, Brian Robson, Vinny Jones, Gary Speed, Schmeichael, Tim Flowers, while I always collected the Romanians, Ilie Dumitrescu, Dan Petrescu, and Gica Popescu etc. I also used to try and get Ceri Hughes from Luton, and Jason Cousins from Wycombe. Then your best players would go abroad at the end of the season and you'd have no say in it, while Red Star Belgrade would always knock you out in Europe. I always enjoyed watching Coventry getting relegated every season till they went to non league, that happened every game! Then I'd get bored take on a second / third division club and work them up the leagues, normally Cardiff or Swansea. I was half expecting Vinny Jones to be in there as he didn't play for Wales until the end of his career, possibly Keith Gillespie also who is listed as Scottish not northern Irish, off memory. I used to love this game on my Amiga back in the day, but I really wish they would of included players like Hagi, and Maradona on the foreign players transfer list.

Preveza Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 Wow, struggled big time. 7/20. I was born in 1987, so didn't get into FM up until the CM01/02 days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo98 Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 16/20. Got screwed by the nationality of a certain Chelsea GK being wrong (he was russian!) and also for some reason i had in my mind that Bontcho was a goal keeper, so discounted him on that one. Also got Conte mixed up with Nicola Berti, and randomly Jeff Kenna and Mark Atkins confused. Some of those ratings.......all the 20s Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welshace Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 17 .. but some were most definitely guesses ( Chelsea's goalkeeper being one) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ommerson Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 15/20. Could have done better. Also the Kharin surprise (a Russian international as far as I thought to know). I was much more up to date with English football back then than I am now. Ask me these questions with current players and I would be surprised to name 5 correct. I was Tracksuit Manager-player back then as I only had a C64. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirky.66 Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 18/20,have to say Im from Blackburn and used to watch atkins back in the day,he was never def or mid left or right. he was centre mid.tim flowers said in training he was the best finisher he had ever faced and shearer was there at the time. so yes got that question wrong!!!!!!

sirgiorgio Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 I guess everybody got Conte wrong... and rightly so! He wasn't a left midfielder, influence 6? Heading 1? Who was the Italian researcher in 1993? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earnie is God! Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 16/20. I got Kharine wrong because he's Russian, Conte because I went for Baggio with those stats and Hutchison as I only remember him playing for Scotland. I did screw up number 9 as I got my nationalities wrong. I liked the quiz though! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was great to watch, but to say there hasn't been a left winger in England as good as him since him is just not true. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bestbrother Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 Conte threw me as I'm sure on the Italia version he was a DMC or even MRC, where as Berti was always a popular MLC and that's who I plumped for. However should have known really that an English quiz would push it toward an English related answer. That's how I got the Pep answer, although I was thinking Luis Enrique at the time. Nice to relive some memories though, especially on a Sunday as id rarely get out of bed and play this, mouse next to me and my toe pressing the spacebar during matches Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
