Yeah you can, my brother did one season with Halifax [got them promoted] then got offered the England job. XD You can start off as international manager as well. It's only really fun if you're doing a club job at the same time though imo.

I've heard some quite good things about this game. Only question is: is it better than Premier Manager for the PS2? Came out in about 2002/3 I think and that would be the last footie manager game I played.

LOADS better, you can interact with players ect ect..

The one thing I still dislike about Football Manager is the amount of games where you'll have 20 more shots than the other team and lose 1-0. :/ Even with a brilliant strikeforce. I did a network game with a friend who was Valencia and played AC Milan in the Champions League.. and Milan seriously had 37 shots and my friend won 1-0, with about 4 shots. O_O

Are you referring to praise/punishment? I heard there are some clever aspects with regard to that.

Yeah it's great, you can tell players you're thinking about resting them, ask them to recommend a new signing and also ask them to recommend a new coach/scout. Also, before games you talk to the press and you can talk to other managers through the press to take presure of your team and that.
