Recommended Posts

Can you do a Wednesday only version with Hirsty as Mayfair and Nuhiu as Old Kent Road.....or Clarke....no make it O'Grady......Olsen.....David Johnson (the one who went to hartlepool)...Woods..in fact don't do it, I've got depressed just thinking about that first strip!!

 

Starting at Mayfair and working back might be a better option

 

Hirst

Waddle

 

Nilsson

Walker

Smith

 

Hodge

Westwood

Springett

 

Atkinson

Charlton

Francis

 

etc

There have been football releases of the Monopoly Game before (France World Cup was one of them) BUT this is absolutely cracking. A quick email to Hasbro with the completed product, and you never know! I would buy it for sure!

 

 

Certainly no libel cases waiting to happen there

I think you got a cracking idea going on here.

 

I would deffo play it, 

 

Thanks

 

In the original version you get assessed for street repairs dependent on the number of houses or hotels.

How about being assessed for tax avoidance in this version?

 

Good idea

Whilst I was halfway through doing this I was tempted to scrap the idea and make a Wednesday one instead, if this one goes well then I might be tempted. Would cause some reight arguments over player selections though.

Thanks Wayne, yeah this is my concern as well, it would be extremely difficult to make an official version of the game even for Hasbro as getting all the licences for the players photos etc would be difficult. If they did do it I'd imagine it would end up with fictional players which would be rubbish really.

 

 

Thanks for the latest ones, still a few places left, also feel free to suggest something that has already been taken to knock someone off the list.

Love it! When can I buy one??

Presumably the house/hotel thing doesn't work if you replace land/streets with players. How about the idea of being able to tie your players down to long term contracts with you once you have the group/set (1 house becomes a 1 yr contract). An opponent landing on one of your players pays compo for "tapping up" your player (longer the contract, the higher the compo). Same mechanic, different story.

Get on Dragon's Den lad :)

Boot for house, shirt for squad + captains band to double up 1 per player

After an enormous amount cutting, sticking, printing and trips to Hobby Craft and B&Q, I am pleased to announce that Football Agent Monopoly has been completed! 

 

Thanks for all the suggestions for the Chance and Community Chest cards. The following people's suggestions made it into the final game.

The board in poster form before it was mounted on to wood.

Some of the Chance and Community Chest cards, I've deliberately shown some of the tamer ones as some of them would be libellous if shown on here. (especially ones involving David Pleat and Nigel Clough).

For the properties cards I replaced the 'Houses' with 'Contracts' and the 'Hotels' with 'Bonus'

The replacement Houses and Hotels (This is the point where the costs really started to spiral out of control).

The poster was cut into quarters and mounted on to 6mm MDF. The Gaffer tape round the sides protects the edges and stops the board moving around on the table.

It's been a ridiculous waste of time in many ways but I'm happy with the finished product. If I'd realised at the start how much time and money it would have cost then I would have invented my own board game. 

 

We had our first game on Christmas day and it seemed to go down well with the family. (I managed to buy Pele and Maradonna early in the game so was able to destroy everyone).

 

Now that I have all the templates etc I might make a Wednesday one in the future.

 

Cheers for the help.
