Hi folks, check out the new section of my site dedicate

JON SPEAKS!! - EXCELLENT SENSIBLE SOFTWARE
NEWS! - 28/3/1999
Hi, after the excellent news, which we brought you in the last
news update, we have been in touch with Jon hare, and he has
the following to say about Sensible Software, and our SOS campaign
:
"Thanks for your message and thanks to all the other
people who have left messages on your website too. At the moment
we are in complex negotiations with another company regarding
Sensible and the possibility of them taking it on and keeping
it alive. I will let you know more details about this if and
when a deal is signed, in the mean time thanks to everyone for
your support again, it is nice to know some people understand
and appreciate what Sensible has always been about. "
So, things are looking good for the future. And it really
feels good to know that my and Cris' work has been appreciated,
even if, it seems , it may have been un-necessary. Still, perhaps
Jon can show this potential investor, the message board, to
prove the support which there is out there for Sensible Software.
EXCELLENT SOS NEWS - 16/3/1999
I have some excellent news regarding our SOS (Save
Our Sensible) campaign.
It seems as though our campaign may well have been successful.
Close watchers of the SOS message board will have noticed a
message posted a few days ago, offering help and support for
Sensible Software. We are currently desperately trying to get
in contact with Jon Hare, to pass on this information. In the
meantime, don't stop leaving your messages. It's great to see
so much support out there.
Watch this space!!
HO DIDDLE OH. N64 FIFA 99 SLATED!! - 13/3/1999
Joyfully I read in Arcade Magazine this afternoon,
as they bravely set about ripping FIFA '99 to pieces.
"Football games should not be exact simulations, they
should be fun games based loosely on the game of football, and
EA have missed the point again with this latest installment."
THE BEST GOAL OF THE MONTH CHART EVER?-
13/3/1999
Next months double sized Goal of the Month competition
(to compensate for there not being a chart this month) looks
as though it could be the best and most tightly contested that
this website has ever seen. Goals from new entrant G.Loonstra,
and regulars Bjorn Knudsen and Paul Turner, as well as one really
special goal of my own (already riding high at No.2 in Sensi-Superstar's
chart) are all in contention for the coveted top spot.
It seems likely that Paul Turners goal will be toppled from
the top of the goal of the century chart, but whose goal will
take the top spot - will it be Loonstra, Knudsen, a new goal
from Turner, Le Marsay, or even YOU!!
There's still two weeks left to get your goals in - and remember
- there's a prize of some sorts for whoever tops goal of the
century, when we break into the new millenium.
BACK ONLINE! - 5/3/1999
I've been suffering badly from a new modem this week,
resulting in me losing all my E-mails, E-Mail addresses, competition
entrants, as well as a program needed for my college work. There
was a point when I thought I'd have to do the gut wrenching
thing of closing down this site, because I thought I'd lost
all of my files for the site, but luckily I managed to find
them.
Because of these problems, there will be no update to the competitions
page this month, and I URGE ANYONE WHO ENTERED ANY COMPETITION
THIS MONTH TO RE-SEND THEIR ENTRY.
Still, now I've got my new modem working, I can enjoy the benefits
of a super speedy 56k modem. Joy!
VOTING RESULTS - 5/3/1999
According to visitors of the site, the PC version of
Sensible Soccer is the best, after grabbing 55% of the votes.
The Amiga version came second with 36% and, predictably trailing
in last was the Megadrive version, which scraped a 9% of the
votes. Now go and vote on the new topic!
SENSI-SUPERSTAR GOALS PAGE UPDATED - 5/3/1999
Sensi-Superstar, home of the second best Goal of the
month competition (after this one of course!), has been updated,
with a new list of top goals , for February. As there is not
going to be an update to my competition page due to my modem
problems, perhaps you could check out this chart instead.
