Role-Playing
Simulated Football Management Games
Role-Play fantasy football simulated management games reflect a virtual football world TOTALLY created by the
participants within the game. You literally are the manager and play that
role with football match results simulated rather than following real life
soccer action. Our review of these games offered online should help you

European
Challenge Football League (ECFL)
Simulated Role Playing League.
The European Challenge Football League is a simulated League which uses some of the very finest sides in Europe. With 40 teams and 4 Divisions, the challenge to be crowned the best side in the ECFL is a very tough
one. Its not for part timers, but if you think you have the stomach to take on the best of the best, then ECFL may be what you want. Reviewed 31 May 2004.

ISMFA

management game. For each game managers must pick their team using their

trade with every other club meaning that you have contact with managers
all over the world. Games are played at least once a week but can be more
frequent depending on whether you are in the cup and European
Competitions. As of Dec 2003 there are 3,000 players to buy, sell and
loan, 110 teams to play in 3 competitions. The Cup competition has a real
trophy to be won and on top of all this the game is free to Play. Reviewed
