“When the saints” would playing during the matches, the tune I liked was the one that played in the menu system. The Video above has a remixed version of that tune.

I’m not tried kaillera yet, I’ll have to check it out. Thanks.

wasn’t the music on matchday 2 an 8-bit rendition of “when the saints go marching in”? indeed, matchday 2 was probably the slowest game on the planet but player control is amazing, especially headers from corners. have you tried using kaillera and ccs64 to play against other humans via the web?

Good questions Ugo, and think they are both good football games.

Gameplay wise I prefer Emlyn Hughes International Soccer as I found Matchday 2 a little too slow (The video above is actually speeded up) that being said I think the Manager side of Matchday 2 was a lot better. Also despite Emlyn Hughes having a similar bit of music by Barry Leitch, Matchday 2 had the better music.
