The death of football Mangement games
I used to play many years ago Championship Manager and sunk far too much of my spare time in these games. There used to be lots of Management games around. Championship Manager, Football Manager, On the ball, LMA Manager, Fifa Manager. It sad that Football Manager is the only one left and that is a bloated broken mess so I believe. I've not played a football management game in years but lack of competition is not good.

You missed out Ultimate Soccer Manager :P
I think for some of the classic manager games there are community created updates for players/stats of more recent seasons. Probably says something that these can be more fun than the professionally made games...
