Game On!

Last updated : 13 February 2003 By Christian Kelly

It's a marvelous night here at the Stade de France. Both for British Football and Southampton as they go up to collect their third consecutive Champion's league trophy."

Why wait for Strachan to guide the Saints up the table when you can do it better yourself. Here are the best games on offer to live your life vicariously, and usually precariously, as a footy manager.

Game developer Smoking Gun Productions has moved its Football Coach series south of the border. After securing Scottish giants Celtic and Rangers, the Southampton-based firm have looked closer to home for their next club: Southampton FC.
The game, "Southampton Football Coach", allows Saints fans the opportunity to try the managerial hot-seat at the south coast club, and includes all the functionality of the Old-Firm games along with a number of brand-new features for the 2002-2003 season.
Southampton FC have really got behind the game, allowing the Smoking Gun team unprecedented access to the Friends Provident St Mary's Stadium, as well as providing some stunning player imagery. Expect the game to be something special!
