As management games go, Player Manager is definitely a step in the right direction. A lot of the menus and options cover old ground, but in the case of player transfer markets and financial details, that is unavoidable. However, possibly one of the most impressive options yet seen on a managerial game, and the keystone to addictiveness and involvement of this game, is the Tactics option. Forget selecting 4-24 or 4-3-3, PM lets you plan all your set pieces just the way you want them. An infinite amount of different strategies are available for you, the only limit is your imagination. By placing the players in the best positions for your style of play, and marking out approximate ‘trace’ lines, telling each player where they should be for any given moment, you will never be able to say that you are not in full control of your game.
Like in Player Manager you could watch the match from a top-down perspective, but you could'nt play the match like in Player Manager. However, you had a commentary who explained what was going on in the match, and he ... gave a summary of the 90 minutes after the game. Neat. 1st Division Manager came in different versions for the different consoles, most of the versions only had different graphics though. The screens I'm using in this article is from the Amiga version, but the game was also made for ZX Spectrum, Atari ST and C64.

In the Manager office (your office) you move around and have the various options available at the bottom of the screen. Selecting them will take you to the next menu. The most important part where you control your squad is in the Picture on the wall where you can see the most important part your Team Rating that is shown at the top. The rating shows your position based on the ability and strength of your team. It has nothing to do with the value of your squad or your position in the division. After that you can go to the Tactics, the tactics used by you are shown at the top.

Player Manager 2 includes another important part, the coaching. You not only need to continually improve the skills of your players, you must ... ensure that the young players are developing into good players. They need to play to gain experience, but don’t push them a lot. You need to keep a very close eye on player's fatigue and the fitness of the injured players.

Being the manager of a football club is a stressful occupation – it's easy to get laryngitis screaming at dozing players. Some enraged bosses even make regular pitch invasions. You're one such boss, but unlike Cloughie, your place on the pitch is entirely legitimate. As player manager of a Third Division side you can inspire your team to victory by playing alongside them. Do well and you could gain promotion or even with the FA cup; do badly and the club's board of directors will soon let you know!
