BUY SWOS NOW!! - (13/8)
After hours of painful searching, I finally found
a site that is offering SWOS for sale. It is SWOS Euro 96 to
be precise, and it is available at a ridiculously expensive
£24(+), but hey, it's better than nothing!! Go to this site:

Also, you can buy Sensi Soccer 98 Euro Club Edition

CODEMASTERS TO ANNOUNCE PS2 TITLES
IN 1 MONTH - (12/8)
Codemasters are set to unveil titles which they will be producing
for the Playstation 2 in around a months time.
So what?, you may be thinking, well it is possible, although,
admittedly, it is straw clutching at its best, that this is
the time they announce SWOS 2000.
WAVE TO THE CODIES!! - (8/8)
Raise your hands and join me in a cyber-wave to
the Codemasters and their crew as through recent correspondance,
I have been led to believe that people from Codemasters are/have
been checking out my site. This is either:
a.) Good news because they are trying to keep intouch with Sensible
fans, their views, and what they want or....
b.) Bad news because they are checking up on me because they
don't like what I'm doing - ie me talking about their recent
"projects".
If anyone from Codemasters happens to be reading this now, can
I just say, that I hope "b" isn't true and that you
can see that I am only trying to do the best by Sensible and
it's fans. However if you do have a problem with any of the
content of my site, I will happily listen to your comments and
remove/alter the offending material.
BABES BEATEN IN THRILLER!!- (5/8)
The Celebrity Challenge has taken place and the
Webmasters XI were victorious in what turned out to be a thrilling
match. Full match details, and, of course, more fantastic pictures
coming soon to the Sensi 98 section!
GOOD NEWS / BAD NEWS - (5/8)
I have received both good and bad news in the last
few days. Unfortunately PC-SWOS for download is not going to
happen, as Codemasters are adamant that they want to retain
the rights for their back-catalogue of Sensi's games, which
I suppose is understandable. I suppose this also means an end
to any hopes of "Open SWOS" ever becoming more than
just a concept.
However, through the same negotitations (which
incidentally were made by Paul Turner), the Codies admitted
they were "working on exciting projects involving games
such as SWOS" which to my mind all but confirms that SWOS
2K is going to happen.
MAGIC IS BACK- (5/8)
A warm welcome to Magic SWOS, which is back on
the 'net after a long absence. I like this site, somehow it
just manages to be very different from other SWOS sites, and
with those nostalgic SWOS fonts, it just feels very SWOS like.
It's new design is very tidy and easy on the eye, so be sure
to give it a visit, it's in the SWOS links page. Oh, and be
sure to mention that Phil sent you!!
GB CANNON FODDER DELAYED - (2/8)
Gameboy Cannon Fodder, scheduled for release in
July, has been delayed. The game is still in developement and
is now set for release in October.
SWOS 2K NEWS COMING SOON (1/8)
Check this page over the next few days for more
details regarding the new Sensble Soccer that is in the early
stages of developement. I should be receiving news of the latest
progress shortly.
MAGIC SWOS BACK SOON! (1/8)
I told you it would happen, and indeed it is (happening,
that is), Magic SWOS, a site which I like a lot, is to be relaunched
this week Yay!, See this space for more details!
KRING IS KING AFTER MONTH ONE(1/8)
Kasper Kring is sitting pretty at the top of the
SWOS Superleague chart after month one, but my, is it close.
Check out the superleague pages in the SWOS section for more
info.
SENSI 98 SUPERLEAGUE DEADLINE EXTENDED(1/8)
As, I have only received one entrant for the Sensi
98 superleague, I have decided to extend the deadline, to the
end of this month, in the vain hope that my Sensi 98 site promotion
scheme will re-generate some interest in the game.
PC SWOS FOR DOWNLOAD? (1/8)
Paul Turner, of Sensi-SuperStar fame, is currently
"in negotiations" with Codemasters over the possibility
of making a full version of PC-SWOS available for download.
Due to the difficulty encountered by many trying to get hold
of this game, I am, taking the controversial step of throwing
my support behind this idea, because it is a shame so many people
aren't able to play this game because they cant get hold of
it. Again, watch this space for further developements.
ENIGMA TO LAUNCH COMEBACK BID? (1/8)
The further delay of the Celebrity challenge match
between the Webmasters XI, and the Babes XI, details of which
can be found in the Sensi 98 section, is playing right into
the hands of crocked footballing superstar, the ENIGMA.
"The extra time is definitely a bonus. The
ankle feels fine now, and it's just a case of building up some
match fitness. Hopefully I should be OK to play some part, but,
even if I'm not, this is one match I'm sure I'll enjoy spectating!!"
the ENIGMA took part in a 5-a-side friendly match
this evening, and looked to be struggling for form and fitness.
Phil Marsay, manager of the Webmasters XI is expected to start
with the ENIGMA on the bench, but admits he will probably play
some part.
The match is due to take part in a secret location,
when sunny weather returns to British shores. Watch this space.
