MCM Eur'08

England back in the game - in this SMS-based mobile management sim, at least.

London 5th June 2008 - Good news for every England fan who has lost interest in this summers football. There is a new international football tournament that includes England - the brand new MCM Eur'08 mobile football management game. To mark the launch, MCM Eur'08 is being offered on an introductory free trial basis (see MCM Eur'08 Terms and Conditions for details. www.mobileclubmanager.com). Would-be football managers from around the country can test their skills managing England, or indeed, any of the other top 15 European teams. This unique mobile football management game gives managers the scope to train and select their players, formation and tactics.

MCM Eur'08 replicates a real life football manager's role and as any good manager knows, training is half the battle to any successful football campaign. MCM allows managers to train their team as a squad or as individuals through a range of unique interactive offline training games including weight-training, shot stopping and ball control. The more the players train, the better they will perform on match day; over train them and fatigue sets in. Managers then select the players they want to start, the team formation and the playing strategy. With the key decisions made and the team sheet submitted to MCM, it's then a question of waiting for the results. MCM Eur'08 is played on a real time basis where managers will receive blow-by-blow updates of their team's progress via SMS. The result will depend on the management skills of the individual in the dug out.

For a free trial of MCM Eur'08, text "GoMCM" to 60777. The introductory free trial includes 10 SMS messages (see MCM Eur'08 Terms and Conditions before registering www.mobileclubmanager.com)

"It's well documented that this summer was going to be a huge disappointment for every England football fan. We believe that MCM Eur'08 can give the excitement back to those fans via their mobiles," says Shahid Mohamed, head of programme management at SANCO.
