I started playing sport sims with notebooks, cards and dice. Creating my own games; football, icehockey etc.
Then with C64 came the allmighty Football Manager, was I in love. Yes! Then with Amiga 500 Sensible Soccer, God of Football games. And finally lost my soul to sport sims with Championship Manager: Season 97/98. It happened with União de Leiria. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Championship_Manager_-_Season_97-98_Coverart.png#/media/File:Championship_Manager_-_Season_97-98_Coverart.png
