The Football Ladder
A football career game where you run clubs, climb the governing structure, and pursue the next job without ever playing a match in a 3D engine.
Field notes
The proposed career runs through seven layers of football authority, beginning with ownership of a struggling club and ending at the world governing body. Decisions cover wage bills, amortised transfer fees, ticket prices, managers, sporting directors, investors, and protests, while matches arrive as reports rather than playable 3D fixtures. The site also describes persistent relationships: a coach dismissed early in a career may later return as an official with a vote.
