At the time, the game was still called European Champions.<\/p>\n<p>In it, an EA production assistant apologises to the brothers and explains that the company will not release the prototype. The reason? In short, EA did not believe that a game based on statistics, with no action, could succeed.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_4531\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4531\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/fmportugal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/CartaFM.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-4531 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/fmportugal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/CartaFM.jpg\" alt=\"Carta EA Sports\" width=\"650\" height=\"894\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-4531\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0(Click to enlarge)<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Despite turning it down, he wished them luck with other companies already working on football simulators.

Championship Manager was born, and it became a phenomenon throughout the 90s and until 2003. Then, in 2004, with Sports Interactive now split from Eidos, the game was renamed Football Manager, and its success continues to this day.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, years later EA did release its own simulator, FIFA Manager, but it never got there and was eventually discontinued.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Onde_esta_a_carta\"><\/span>Where the letter is<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The letter was sent in 1991.

In other words, the two companies ended up side by side in the same room, with proof of the \u201cno\u201d on the wall.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine what it would have been like if EA had said \u201cyes\u201d.
