Championship Manager: Season 01/02 is a footballmanagementvideo game in Sports Interactive's Championship Manager series. It was released for Microsoft Windows in October 2001, and for Mac in November 2001. It was later released on Xbox in April 2002. It was released as freeware in 2008. The game allowed players to take charge of any club in one of around 100 leagues across 27 countries, with responsibility for tactics and signings. The game sold more than 300,000 copies in the United Kingdom.
New features[edit]
Although never particularly expanding on the graphical side, Sports Interactive included many new features along with the usual updated database. Championship Manager 01/02 implemented the new EU regulated transfer system, introduced in September 2001, and also featured a new 'attribute masking' mode, whereby the player could only see information about footballers they would realistically know about (also known as a fog of war).
Other new additions included the ability to send players away for surgery, player notes, player comparisons, and improved media and board interaction.
The champman0102.co.uk community has provided various patches and data updates to the game and continues to do so to this day. The ability to change game values, commentary speed, utilize coloured attributes, change the start year and many other changes have been made. The community has over 13,000 accounts and counting, and 'Keeps the Game Alive'.
Playable leagues[edit]
This edition of Championship Manager included about 100 fully playable leagues in 26 countries, and patch 3.9.67 added South Korea's K-League, its first appearance in the CM series.
Asia[edit]

Free release and data updates[edit]
In December 2008, Eidos Interactive made the game available for free download, and included a recommendation for users to download a users-created update patch from http://www.champman0102.co.uk.[1] One of the most active CM forums on the net, the website still provides regular updates after transfer windows close.
Release[edit]
In 2001, presenters Ant & Dec, who hosted the Saturday morning show SMTV Live, left the show. On their last show, they received a letter (from Sports Interactive) and special edition copies of Championship Manager: Season 01/02 which saw Ant as a player for Newcastle with a contract of £50,000 a week with a value of £4.7m, and Dec as a player for Sunderland with a contract of £90 a week.
Fictional players[edit]
The first release of the game included a player named 'Tó Madeira', a great striker no matter where he played. It was later revealed that Tó Madeira was not a real footballer, but in fact a fictional player created by a scout working for the game producers.[2]
Reception[edit]
The computer version of Championship Manager: Season 01/02 received a 'Platinum' sales award from the Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association (ELSPA),[3] indicating sales of at least 300,000 copies in the United Kingdom.[4]

Championship Manager 01 / 02 marks the latest and final update to the Championship Manager 3 engine, and at the time of going to press has already broken UK PC game sales records, shifting well over 100,000 copies within a day or two of launch. It's quite popular then, and on face value it is quite hard to see why. Naturally, the game does boast a startlingly accurate array of teams, players and competitions from the best leagues and competitions of world football. Yes, it does allow every man to fulfill his boyhood dream of controlling a football club down to the most intricate details of training, signing, tactics, injuries, and finance. But at the end of the day, Champ Man is still just a collection of statistics and results.
Yet it is from this anal accountancy-style attention to the hard facts and figures that make the game the joy it is to play; for underneath the coldness of the database lies the true essence of Football. Never has a game captured the thrills and spills of the real thing so accurately as in this case, it's just so damn believable, and ultimately addictive and fun.
Because football is fun, and when you're in control the tactical wizardry, signing of new players and day to day squad management prove even more intriguing than watching the match. Though the result is always paramount. It is the truth in this that lies behind why Championship Manager is the success it is. This is game of Chess-ethics, where visual wonders are irrelevant and base compared to the higher-plane of the mental work-out.
So what's this latest installment got going for it other than the previously mentioned realism and cunning of the gameplay? Well, firstly, the commentary is far less repetitive and much better written during matches, the news and information reporting system is more comprehensive and useful, the club / player data is accurate up to October when the was completed, and Sports Interactive have added some more nice background photos.
All of which leaves CM 01 / 02 fit for the new season and an essential edition to any footie fans gaming collection. With the next installment, CM4, Sports Interactive are promising support for multiplayer gaming, and possibly, a tactical view of players during the match.. I look forward to this with drooling impatience. In the meantime, I'm off to continue Liverpool's season of destiny, the European Cup is within my grasp, I urge you to do the same, for Championship Manager is simply the best football management simulation ever.
The latest version of the greatest football management game ever is now here on the PC. Season 01/02 is based on the CM3 engine, and will be the latest update until the completely new CM4. It contains all the updates to CM3 that patches and the previous update version Season 00/01 brought, plus some new ones of it's own that I will talk about later. I would first like to remind you that this is not an add-on pack for CM3 or CM00/01, but another new version.
Now, a lot of you out there probably like football, but many of you don't, and I would like to warn you that this is a football-fans-only game. You don't need to be any sort of dedicated fan, just someone who likes the game in some way or another. Football haters will probably not enjoy this game, but may find if worth a try due to the fun it offers.
Anyway, on the game - it consists of thousands of screens of precise football data that can be used to make you the ultimate football manager. As expected, you lead a team from one of 26 nations (each with more than one league), and guide the team to the top. Whether this be the Premiership, Serie B Promotion, or Champions League victory, it's your choice, and you can make any team go all the way if you're good enough. You can play for as long as you like, and watch teams change stadium, managers, and staff, predicted from real-life situations.
The game does not feature a graphics engine at all. Instead, the games are played with flashing commentary. This isn't a bad point, however, as games using a graphics engine for the games have tended to be poor, and this feature in Champ Man has always worked fine for many.
As previously, the game features pictures behind the menus, but for the first time, they are not of the clubs the stats are about. This is due to Sports Interactive getting sued by an unnamed Football Association over the data being used in Championship Manager: Season 00/01. So, you get pics of the SI team and pics licensed from their local club, Manchester City. However, the game comes with a picture editor allowing you to add your own pics in the game, so you can make it what you like. Also, you could always copy the pics from a previous CM3 version into the CM01/02 pics directory and get back what you lost. It's not Sports Interactive's fault, so we cannot fault them for this.
The sounds are pretty good in game, with cheers from the crowd when you score, but not having a graphics engine could have been made up with full commentary. But then, decent in-game commentary has yet to appear in a computer game.
The gameplay in Champ Man has not been beaten. It offers so much depth that you don't know where to start. All the vital statistics that complete the game are there are can be used by you to buy the best players around.
Championship Manager: Season 01/02 is a game you'll come back to again and again. Even after this review I will continue to play this game, and improve my team's performance, and the inclusion of the player editor allows you to create your own teams and take them to the top. Put yourself into the game, your family, your colleagues, your pets, put their pics in with the picture editor and you have a game that offers limitless lifespan as well as self-customization. This is football heaven.

The Championship Manager brand and game was conceived by brothers Paul and Oliver Collyer. In a scenario typical of many self-made game programming teams in the early days of the industry, the original Championship Manager game was written from their bedroom in Shropshire, England.[1] The brothers subsequently founded a development company to take the game further, Sports Interactive, and moved to Islington, North London. Championship Manager became the most popular football management sim of the later 1990s and early 2000s, regularly setting sales records.[2]
In 2003, Sports Interactive split with Eidos, the publishers of Championship Manager.[3] Sports Interactive retained the game's database and match engine, producing a new game based on these titled Football Manager. Eidos retained the name and interface, with BGS taking over the development of Championship Manager. Although the two series initially ran alongside one another, the sales of Championship Manager began to fall below those of Football Manager. The most recent full version of Championship Manager was Championship Manager 2010, with an iOS mobile game in 2011 the latest game to date released by Eidos.
Square Enix Europe, owners of the brand after purchasing Eidos, revived Championship Manager under the title of Champ Man in 2013. They have released five games for iOS and Android handheld systems and mobile phones since then.[4]
Championship Manager[edit]
The release of the first version of the game was not an outstanding success, and sales were steady rather than spectacular. Reviews ranged from the encouraging to the dismissive; the original game was written in BASIC, a programming language not well suited to programming high-performance video games. Other limitations included the fact that generated names were used for each team, whereas its key competitors of the time, such as Premier Manager and The Manager, included real players in the game.
Championship Manager '93[edit]
The release of Championship Manager '93 one year later built on the original game, ported to the C programming language, adding a real life player database and other features. By now Championship Manager had built a large following in the UK. This was reviewed many times around July 1993 from its release in around May 1993.[citation needed]
Championship Manager Italia[edit]
The Championship Manager '93/'94 engine was the basis for Championship Manager Italia. This was a version that simulated the top two divisions of Italian football (Serie A and Serie B). There was also a 1995 seasonal update released for this game.
Championship Manager '93 data update disks[edit]
The success of Championship Manager '93' spurred the release of two update disks, the first 'contains every transfer, promotion, relegation and manager changes' for the beginning of the '93/'94 season which is known as 'The 1993/94 Season Data Up-Date Disk'. The update required the original Championship Manager '93 disks, three blank disks and the Championship Manager '93/'94 Season Data Up-Date Disk disk. This was released around September 1993.[[:Category:|]]
The second of the two update disks is known as 'End of 1994 Season Data Up-Date Disk.' which 'Includes all the latest player transfers. All the play-off results. End of season player stats' for the season 1993/1994. This was released around the end of season 1993/1994.[citation needed]
Championship Manager 2[edit]
The success of the franchise lead to the release of Championship Manager 2 in September 1995. The game again included up-to-date squads for each team, added photos of each ground to build an atmosphere of the teams managed or visited, and included an in-match commentary with the voice of Clive Tyldesley.
Two seasonal updates followed over the next two years.[citation needed]
Championship Manager 96/97[edit]
Championship Manager 96/97 was released in 1996 and was the first game to feature a non-British league as playable in the standard game - in this case the Italian leagues. It also included several rule changes to reflect the many changes going on in the real life world of football at that time, such as the Bosman ruling.[citation needed]
Championship Manager 97/98[edit]
Released in 1997, this version of the game included nine leagues from around the world, three of which could be run simultaneously, new competition formats to follow those implemented in reality, and many more tactical options. The game remains popular amongst fans of the series, mainly for its simplicity compared to the huge, processor-intensive games that the series has since developed into.[citation needed]
Championship Manager 3[edit]
This was the first of the seasonal updates to Championship Manager 3. It also included more media involvement, board interaction and improved scouting functions.
Championship Manager: Season 99/00[edit]
This update saw the American Major League Soccer added to the list of playable leagues. It also added the World Club Championship to the equation.
Championship Manager: Season 99/00 received a 'Gold' sales award from the Entertainment and Leisure Software Publishers Association (ELSPA),[5] indicating sales of at least 200,000 copies in the United Kingdom.[6]
![]() Championship Manager: Season 00/01[edit]
Ten more playable leagues were introduced for this version, including Australia, Greece, Northern Ireland, Russia and Wales. Logic pro x for windows. It was also the first version of the game to come with a data editor - something which has been continued for all subsequent versions.[citation needed]
Championship Manager: Season 01/02[edit]
No new playable leagues were added to this version of Championship Manager (until a patch was later released that added South Korea's K-League to the game) allowing the developers to fine-tune the game's mechanics. Championship Manager 01/02 also contained the fictional players. The game was released as freeware in December 2008.[7]
![]()
In April 2002, Sports Interactive took the decision to move away from the PC platform for the first time since Championship Manager 2, producing a version of Championship Manager 01/02 for the Xbox. The success of the game saw a follow up, Championship Manager 02/03 released seven months later.
Championship Manager 4[edit]
Championship Manager 4 was released on March 28, 2003, and broke all records on its release becoming, at that time, the fastest-selling PC game on its first day of release. Championship Manager 4 included thirty-nine playable leagues, plus four more in its update, Championship Manager: Season 03/04. On the gameplay side, a top-down view of the match engine was included for the first time a significant shift from the 'imagination' philosophy championed by Sports Interactive previously.
Despite its high sales, Championship Manager 4 was generally not well received by hardcore fans for several reasons. The game ran quite slowly on computers which had previously had no difficulty in running Championship Manager games.[citation needed] The original release contained some functional bugs which in some cases rendered the game farcical—the score in matches could randomly change, and lower division clubs were able to sign superstars with ease. One bug had non-league club Northwich Victoria moving to a stadium with a capacity of 850,000. Sports Interactive used the euphemistic term 'Enhancement Packs' to describe patches to fix the bugs in the original release; this term was dropped for future releases.[citation needed]
Championship Manager: Season 03/04[edit]
This was the final Championship Manager game to be developed by Sports Interactive before they were forced to start a new franchise under the name Football Manager. Championship Manager 03/04 ironed out many of the problems seen in Championship Manager 4 and added new features and more new playable leagues to the game.
Championship Manager 5[edit]
This was the first version in the series to be developed in-house by Eidos. Both Football Manager 2005 and Championship Manager 5 were to be released in October or November 2004. However, the release date of Championship Manager 5 was put back by Eidos to March 2005, due to the extent of work required to code the game from scratch. This allowed Football Manager 2005 a clear run to establish itself ahead of the release of Championship Manager 5.
Championship Manager PSP[edit]
Championship Manager was released on the Sony PSP in December 2005. It was developed by Gusto Games and was the first game in the series to be released on a handheld system.
Championship Manager Online[edit]
This is the first online version of either Championship Manager or Football Manager, and was launched in UK on February 22, 2005.
Championship Manager 2006[edit]
The follow-up to Championship Manager 5 was released on PC on March 31, 2006 under the name Championship Manager 2006.
Championship Manager 01/02 Download
This version did little to reverse the growing gap in quality between Championship Manager and Football Manager. Basic features that had been a staple of the latter from over a decade, such as international management, were missing from the boxed version of Championship Manager 2006.
November 10, 2006, saw the arrival of Championship Manager 2006 (with Championship Manager 5 not being ported) on Macintosh. Championship Manager 2007 was planned for release on the Mac OS X platform in 2007.
Championship Manager 2007[edit]
Championship Manager 2007 was released on October 13, 2006. Sales continued to be lower than for Football Manager.
Championship Manager 2008[edit]
Championship Manager 2008 was released on 2 November 2008, with users able to play in a multiplayer mode, with more than one person on an account. Also, users can manage nations and can apply 'Club Benefactor', which lets the user have more money, although these additions were added in the previous Championship Manager. Another feature is the addition of more leagues – for example, the Australian League – player tendencies and team talks.
Championship Manager 2010[edit]
Championship Manager 2010 was originally planned for release on 24 April 2009,[8] however Eidos Interactive released the game on September 11, 2009. A fully 3D match engine (using motion-captured movements to provide more than 500 animations per player) was implemented for the first time, and it was announced on February 6 that new English Leagues, the Isthmian, Southern and Northern Premier Leagues would be included in the game, as well as Croatian, Romanian, Irish and Northern Irish Leagues. The German league system was also restructured for this edition, including the 3. Liga and 3 Regionalliga.[9] The game was released 11 September with a demo version being available on the website from 14 August.
On 18 August a 'pay what you want for Championship Manager 2010' promotion was announced whereby between 18 August and 10 September a digital copy of the game could be pre-ordered from the Championship Manager store and was available for download on the day of launch, 10 September. Each customer set the price they were willing to pay in addition to a transaction fee.[10]
Championship Manager 2011[edit]
A version of Championship Manager 2011 was released for iOS.[11] No later version had been released as of September 2014. It was followed by a period of three years with no Championship Manager games, although a new game, Championship Manager: World of Football (a collaboration between Beautiful Game Studios and Shanda Games), was announced by Square Enix in July 2011.[12]
Square Enix era[edit]
The Championship Manager series was revived by Square Enix in 2013. Championship Manager 13/14, branded as Champ Man, was released on October 15, 2013 for mobile phones.[13] A follow up to this game, Champ Man 15, was released on August 18, 2014, for iOS and Android, Champ Man 16 was released in September 2015.[14] In 2016, Championship Manager 17 Saint seiya anime chronological order. was released. As of May 31, 2018, Square Enix has ceased all game services for all Championship Manager mobile games and removed them from the iOS and Android app stores.[15]

Championship Manager 01/02 Legends. Where are they now?
Inspired by this FIFA 07 post, I go back
Ah, 2002, things were much simpler back then. When the only thing keeping you away from success was your imagination (and skill), as imagining everything you read made it more exciting. When you could buy OP Scandinavians for very low prices. When you were looking through the Greek teams and wondering why does this unknown 19 year old have a bunch of 20s, only to find out 10 years later that the supposed golden generation was mostly fictional players (true story). When Cristiano Ronaldo had 160 potential ability.
As you pick your team one by one for the next match you realise your star player is injured. You have to promote a youngster from the reserves hoping he will do the job. You start the match. You are already nervous. No fancy stuff like team talks, it's just you and your team.
Dionisis Chiotis-Goalkeeper
Chiotis was a workhouse. His high workrate and bravery made you feel safe at the back altough stuff like handling and reflexes weren't very high in the beggining. In real life , he has just taken the first choice spot in AEK Athens and he also made Champions League appearences. A combination of falling out of favor and injuries saw Chiotis leave AEK for Kerkyra in 2007. A year later he transferred to APOEL and got european exposure as APOEL famously reached the Champions League quarter-finals with Chiotis playing an important role. A short spell to Trikala followed in 2015-16. At the age of 39 Chiotis is still active playing for Football League side Appolon Smyrnis. Chiotis won 1 Cup with AEK , 5 league titles, 2 cups and 4 super cups with APOEL and has 1 Greek cap.
Assane N'Diaye-Defender
A physical monster, N'Diaye had all the attributes you would want from a hard-working defender. Things weren't like that in real life though. N'Diaye was thought to be lazy and lacking determination. His career at top level football didn't last very long as he moved back to the Senegalese League after his spell at Shakhtar. Along with some honours in his home country he won 1 league title and two cups with Shakhtar, He was capped 37 times for the Senegalese NT scoring 3 goals. Unfortunatelly, he died on 2008 aged 33.
Taribo West-Defender
A player who was more known for his haircuts than his football career West was solid defender on the Free Agent Pool that would start for most teams in the game. West was part of a controversy regarding his real age with some claiming he was actually 12 years older. Making his name in Europe with Auxerre, West transferred to Inter in 1997 and then to rivals Milan 3 years later where he failed. Multiple short spells followed in England (Derby and Plymouth Argyle towards the end of his carrer), Kaiserslautern, Partizan and Al-Arabi. He retired in 2007 after being released by Iranian club Paykan. He won 1 league title and 2 cups with Auxerre, 1 UEFA Cup with Inter and 1 league with Partizan. He has been capped by Nigeria 42 times and won a gold medal in the 1996 Olympics.
Mark Kerr-Midfielder
Another amazing cheap midfielder, Kerr hasn't achieved anything special in his carrer. He spent most of his career in Scotland's First and Premier Division playing for 7 different teams along with a short spell at Asteral Tripolis in 2010-11. Now at 34 he is back at Falkirk a place where all CM fans discovered and loved him. Kerr has won the First division with Falkirk in 2003 and has 1 Scotland B cap.
Kennedy Bakircioglu-Midfielder
One of the famous Scandinavian wonderkids, while he didn't achieve what the game said he would, he had a decent career. After 5 successful at Hammarby, he joined Iraklis in the Greek Super League. After impressing Twente he was snapped up in 2007. Two years later he transferred to Ajax. After losing his place in the team he left for Racing Santader in 2010. Like Kerr, he went back to Hammarby, now in Swedish second division, in 2012 where most first got to know him. At 36 he is still active playing for Hammarby. At an interview, Kennedy himself said that he played CM transferring himself at Barcelona thinking of what could have been. He won 2 league titles (1st and 2nd division) with Hammarby, 1 cup and 1 super cup at Ajax. He has 14 Swedish caps.
Kim Kallstrom-Midfielder
Another Scandinavian wonderkid, Kallstrom could be signed for around 1-2 mil. Spending his early career in Sweden, Kallstorm moved to France in 2004 signing with Rennes. In 2006 he moved to Lyon where he is most known for playing. After 6 very good years at Lyon he moved to Spartak Moscow with a horrendus loan spell at Arsenal during 2014. He then left for Grasshoppers and played there until 31 January 2017. 3 days ago he went back Djurgardens. While not a world beater, Kallstrom was a vital player in a very good Lyon team. Kallstrom has won 2 league titles and 1 cup with Djurgardens, 2 league titles, 2 cups and 2 super cups with Lyon and an FA cup with Arsenal. He is the 4th most capped Swedish player with 131 caps scoring 16 goals. He retired from the NT after Euro 2016.
Tonto Zola Moukoko-Attacker
Not much can be said about Tonton as I failed to find much information. After failing to make a single appearence for Derby he spent his career in lower leagues of Sweden and Finland. According to Wikipedia he is now the manager of a club called Kongo United FC.
Maxim Tsigalko-Attacker
Championship Manager 17 Download
Another lethal strikes which didn't look amazing on paper but he had 20s in all the right places for a forward. Actually named Maxim Tsyhalka, he started his career at Dinamo Minsk. A player that could have achieved more if it wasn't for his injuries as he put some good performances in the UEFA Cup with Dinamo Minsk. After failing at fellow Belarusian Premier League team Naftan Novopolotsk he had short spells at Kazakhstan and Armenia. His last club was Savit Mogilev, a team that only existed for 3 years. At the same year he joined the club disbanded. After a career full of injuries he retired in 2010 at the age of 26. Tsyhalka won 1 league title and one cup with Dinamo Minsk. He was capped by Belarus 2 times scoring 1 goal.
Cherno Samba-Attacker
Finishing the list is English wonderkid Cherno Samba. He was the perfect striker. Good finisher, good aerial presene, fast and strong. He didn't have the same luck in real life. After scoring 132 goals in 32 matches as a 13 year-old, many started speculating that he was lying about his age. After Millwal rejected a 2 mil bid from Liverpool Samba was basically never heard again. A mix of lack of first team football and attitude problems he moved to Spanish club Cadiz and had a loan spell at Malaga B. He returned to England with an unsuccesful spell at Plymouth Argyle. Short spells at Haka, Panetolikos and Tonsberg were followed with low impact. After being 3 years without a club Samba announced his retirement in 2015 due to an injury. Samba has been capped by Gambia 4 times and scored 1 goal.
