It`s a Goal - Online soccer manager game

Very very poor game. Glacially paced, tiny userbase, supercillious moderators, bug-ridden, no development for many years. Dying game. Avoid.

we have an intense rialvry between 2 of schools because we have 3 highschools on one campus. 2 of the football teams are good and hate each other. i have classes in plymouth and salem even though canton is my home school where i have most of my classes and I play football for canton

Recent update means bugs have been removed. Thinking mans game, but one for those who want to be Champions in a couple of seasons.

If you mean in terms of television ritangs 1) Florida vs.Texan A M- Two traditional programs playing (and in a fairly big TV market). Florida is currently in the top-25.2) Notre Dame vs. Purdue- Big rivalry and it is in the Midwest (largest tv market) What can I say it's Notre Dame, but the Purdue (Spoilermakers) have pulled upsets in this rivalry quite a bit.3) Washington vs. No. 3 LSU Two traditional programs playing. One of the few match ups between the SEC and the Pac-12 LSU is currently #3 in the AP poll. Washington is 50-50 to end up in the Top-25.4) Georgia vs. Missouri- The Bulldogs play the new kid on the block in the SEC. Georgia is currently in the top-10.5) Penn State at Virginia Ticket- Many Penn State fans will watch their team, and many people will watch hoping to see the Nittany Lions lose.Opinion. AP poll, etc.

Excellent game for the long term committed player, best by far.

But if you want a game set on "easy" try something else!

The game was relaunched as Itsagoal.org in 2015, so the comment in red at the top is not strictly accurate.

It is peculiar to see posts nearly a decade old suggesting this game's imminent death and yet it still stands :) Itsagoal is indeed a slow burner so if one is looking for a fast-paced experience it probably won't be their cup of tea. However if you are a little more patient and stick with it, put in a little effort to engage with other managers or read the manuals to grasp the mechanics (it's not really that complicated) you will watch a real gem unfold in front of your eyes. Bit by bit you will see everything you do add up and pay off. Whether it is division promotion, winning a title, promoting a special youth - each of these feel like a true accomplishment and it's truly rewarding!

10/10. A real hidden gem of a football management simulator. An incredibly detailed game where you take full control of your club. Employ staff, take control of training, build your stadium, buy and sell players, the decisions are all down to you. With matches at least 5 days a week, there is always something to do and plan for.

A football management game should be easy to play, but hard to master. Itsagoal.org balances this very well, and once you have got to grips with the layout, there is so much to learn and explore. Even top managers still learn about the game and when you see your work pay off the game is very rewarding.

One huge benefit of Itsagoal.org is that it’s totally free to play. Other similar games on the internet offer micro-transactions and you often need to spend real life money to grow your club and compete with other managers. With itsagoal.org, users who play for free are on a level playing field with managers who subscribe which is unique.

There really is something for everyone, whether you like to log in for a couple of minutes a day or take a more analytic approach, the game can be fun for all. There is a warm and friendly community to help with any questions, and with the owners implementing new improvements, there has never been a better time to sign up.

I've been playing Itsagoal since the early days. The game has evolved over time into something very special. It's a credit to it's designers that an online game is still going a decade on from when it started.

The reasons for that are simple. It's beautifully simple, yet just complicated enough to be addictive. The game keeps you guessing, frustrates you, teases you and then drags you back for more. Getting to the top level is very tough, that's what makes you want to come back and try again. Build a club up from the ground, or take on an already successful club and develop it further.

I don't have time to spend hours a day playing online games. But for around 15 minutes a day I enjoy logging on and escaping the hassles of the real work and managing my team. There's so many plus point about this game, I'd highly recommend it to anyone wanting an online managerial game that is that little bit different and has so much to offer!

I have been playing this game for many years and still find it just as enjoyable as when I first started.

It only requires a little bit of attention each day but covers all aspects of running a football club. I particularly like that you can choose the path you want to navigate, whether its to slowly build a club up from the bottom to the top or try and win as many games as possible from the off.

Its a challenging game, where planning is important if you are to succeed long term. I would highly recommend it.

I have played this game for lots of years and still it grips me!
A real thinking mans game if you want to be a successful manager.
Build your club and maintain it through the seasons. Have a successful cup run in the league cup or the IAG cup. Transfer the deadwood and revitalise your squad, train up the youth academy and find this rough diamonds. Increase your stadium size but watch out for the taxman at season end. Honestly this game has everything to keep you interested.
Still some points to address in the game format but in its present guise it still has me hooked. My wife tells me at 8 o’clock uk time that it’s time for my update!

Of all the games I've played it's the one which feels most like you're developing a real club. That, and it's dedicated community, is probably why itsagoal has maintained my interest for so long.

I find great satisfaction from developing players from my youth academy whether that's to use in my first team or sell for a big profit. Then again, I also like splashing out on some of the better players in the game and maintaining a presence in the upper echelons of the league (though not necessarily picking up trophies).

Whether you see yourself as the next Guardiola or the merely the next Kenny Jackett, there’s plenty of fun to be had on itsagoal.

This is by far the best free online football manager game on the net.
You have total control over the running of your club, everything from selecting your team, selecting the tactics, players and staff contracts, training your players, building a youth academy, stadium expansions, ticket prices, the list goes on.
This game isn't easy, you must keep a close eye on all aspects of the game, especially the financial side. But it by far the most enjoyable online football game I have played and this game has been around for years, which shows how good it must be

ItsaGoal.org is by the far the best FREE online football manager game I’ve played to date. None of the fundamental features sit behind a “pay wall” which you find with most online or mobile games these days, meaning you won’t miss out because you haven’t forked out to access key features.

Having been a manager since its first iteration, there are a number of different aspects in the game to keep you hooked from day one. From managing individual players training schedules to train up youth academy graduates, allowing them to reach their potential in your first team, or be sold on for a profit. Or competing against other managers in your local League Cup, battling against 200 other teams to earn local league bragging rights. You have the option to set your ticket price for home games to increase match day income, and, when the time is right, you can build new stands and let more paying fans in to support your team, growing your fanbase and your club profit.
Each league has its own Transfer Market, meaning you can sell those you deem surplus to requirements, or scouting for the missing link in the starting eleven who can hit 20 goals a season and fire you to league and cup glory.

ItsaGoal.org is THE best free to play online football management game around, don’t miss out!

Have to agree with all the other comments above, Itsagoal.org is definitely the best free online football management game. There has never been a better time to join.

New joiners start with a squad of 23 players and a considerable amount of money in the bank to get you up and running. There are loads of help files to take you through all aspects of the game. There are also some really good chat threads as well with even more advice. Experienced managers are always on hand to help steer you in the right direction.

The beauty of the game is that you can play it any way you like. Plan for the long term and build your club up slowly in the lower divisions before hitting the big time with a competitive team. Jump straight in to the top league and try and compete with the best teams in the game or switch clubs to restart and use your knowledge to build on your successes and learn from your mistakes.

Everyone finds their level whether it's a Top 10 club, a mid table team in the top division or someone building from the bottom.

You get out of the game what you put in. Once you know how the game works then you can progress quite quickly even if you are limited on time day to day.

Why not give the game a try and see what you have been missing.

Enjoy!!
