The Original Football Manager Creator KEVIN TOMS
Football Manager, as many of you know, was first produced in 1981 by a computer programmer named Kevin Toms.
In this episode we delve into the origins of the game, the evolution of gaming technology, and the challenges faced in game development. Kevin shares insights into balancing complexity and simplicity in game design, the importance of player engagement, and the legacy of Football Manager.
The conversation highlights the nostalgic aspects of gaming and the creative process behind one of the most beloved football management games. In this conversation, Kevin discusses the evolution of football management games, emphasizing the importance of player engagement through imagination and simplicity in design. He reflects on the challenges of game mechanics, the emotional connections players develop, and the nostalgia associated with text-based games.
We talk about the balance between simplicity and depth in game design, as well as the unique experiences that football management games offer to players.

How To Master Youth Only Challenges In FM w/ Clayts
How To Master Youth Only Challenges In FM w/ Clayts
On todays episode of The FM Show, Clayts joins us for the first time to discuss his current Youth Only save that he's been recording for YouTube. We talk about constructing narratives within the game, how we fall in love with certain players, and why oh why is there a ruggishly handsome Welsh newgen in Italy with what looks like a suntan mark where his swimming goggles have been?
In addition to all this good stuff we patent and trademark our new feature 'Squad It' that may or may not be appearing on Dragons Den in the near future.
We also speak about Clayts transition to full time content, at what some would argue, was the worst ever time... right before the cancellation of FM25!

What Makes or Breaks your Football Manager Save?
What Makes or Breaks your Football Manager Save? The FM Show Podcast
Tony is not having a nice time in Finland on his journeyman save. Everything started well, but then there was a transfer ban. A transfer ban he claims he knew nothing about. So what next for the journey save? Does he stick with it in Finland, or does he look to seek pastures new and maybe even get paid for his virtual managing?
There's also a big discussion about the implications of getting promoted and whether its ever worth planning for relegation.

When Fiction Meets Reality
When Fiction Meets Reality - The FM Show Podcast
Lets get one thing straight from the off, the cancellation of FM25 has definitely not affected us in any way shape or form.
On the other hand, because of the cancellation, this episode has happened. I think its fair to say that this episode is full of 'Patreon Energy'.
We bounce around ideas from the sensible to the silly. We ultimately end up discussing the community save Si set up. Plus we also talk about the challenge set out by Sutton United to get them promoted to the Premier League.
