With 72 whole teams and a custom league maker, this CD-i soccer game is pretty freakin' ultra.
Unused Teams
This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Is there a way to unlock these teams? |
At the end of the team data list are three extra clubs that cannot be selected in-game.
The first team is Rotherham United, and is by far the most normal of the three. Krisalis Software were based in Rotherham, so their inclusion was likely a bit of local (unused) flavor.
Team Name | Country | Short Name |
---|---|---|
Rotherham United | England | Rotherham |
Players | ||
Lee Glover | Andy Hayward | Steve Cherry |
Junior McDougald | Shaun Goodwin | Scott Smith |
Martin James | Darren Garner | Shaun Goater |
Andy Roscoe | Ian Breckin | Trevor Berry |
Scott Smith | Jonathan Howard | John McGlashan |
Chris Wilder | Mark Monnington | Gary Bowyer |
Paul Hurst | Neil Richardson | Bradley Sandeman |
David Pierce |
Speaking of Krisalis, the company is represented in the second unused team, with its employees taking the place of the players.
Team Name | Country | Short Name |
---|---|---|
Krisalis | England | Krisalis |
Players | ||
Ramo | Mark Adamson | Neil Adamson |
Phil Hackney | Steve Colledge | Dave Colledge |
Mark Potente | Marvyn Burton | Andy Ware |
Mark Edwards | Tim James | Mark Incley |
Paul Kirk | Simeon Pashley | Tracy Hudson |
Pete Harrap | Siobhan Moron | DeeDee |
Finally, there's this team, which has a roster of random, unrelated players and an... interesting name/origin country. Its shortened name suggests the players would've had maxed-out stats.
Team Name | Country | Short Name |
---|---|---|
Ken Dodds dads dogs dead | FUG land | Too Good |
Players | ||
Marcus Adamson | Stephano Bielby | Alen Boksic |
Eric Cantonarse | Petre Dragon | Roberto Baggio |

Unused Text
Most of the game's internal text is stored in cdi_demo at 19B46. Among them are two unused lines meant for the developers' eyes only.
The first one's is some temporary copyright/credits text that's quite informal:
La di da ... Put some copyright Message crap in here or something Written by Krisalis etc etc etc
The second is much more vulgar, and would've showed up whenever the text failed to work properly:
