    Is that the one with the LOI? I won the European cup with Bohs back then!

    edit, I'm thinking that one was earlier 1994/95 or something.

    Thumbs up

    It was a good game alright. As someone who has little interest in current games would like to play it again.

    You can buy two player console like this

    Does anyone have a link to the manual for 96/97?

    I loved that game, and have it still, only I can't get past the security password bit (where it asks for word 5 on line 12 of page 17).

    Alternatively, any way of skipping it?

    I played out two seasons of Sensible Soccer while on ACID once upon a yesteryear

    Started when everyone else crashed and was still going well after everyone was gone to work.

    Good times. Good, good times.

    No, that's not it. It's the actual manual which came with the game, and the computer asks you to enter a word from it, so you need the exact manual, line for line.

    Or alternatively, you could do what I just did and take a random guess at "Games", which turns out to be right. Or maybe the password is turned off and I'm only finding this out now. Either way, I'm off to play SS (could actually be an earlier version, possibly 1994). See yez sometime on Sunday!

    Unfortunately, mine appears to be Sensible Soccer 1992. I'm going to have to trust to randomly guessing the right word!
