This statement has my full support as well. Very well put.

Didn't he play against Chris in the semis?

Congratulation to Dagh on his third world cup title. He beat Gianni in an amazing final that was decided on a single goal (5-6, 5-3). Well done also to the Italian Final Boss who won his 12th World Cup medal!

It looks like it's going to be a hell of a ride, gentlemen. Have a great world cup, and remember to raise a glass for those of us who were dying to be there but couldn't make it.

Darren, I'm pretty sure that the original Kick Off was first developed on the ST, but Kick Off 2 was developed on the Amiga.

Just one thing regarding comparisons with real football: If FIFA had Steve Camber to stop the players' fatigue after 120 minutes, they'd ditch penalty kicks in an instant. :) They've been searching for an alternative for ever but they can't get around the obstacle that the players need to eventually...

A couple of features we used to have that I miss: 1) Removing the AT choice before the beginning of every single game from the KO2CV options. This option used to be there but it was removed.

Definition of several people = 4. I'm not going to name them if they don't want to come forward, but I know you trust me not to make this up. It's not like it's a huge issue for me in any case. I find them boring and I'd hate to see a final decided that way, but as others have said they are rare. My...
