Football Manager 25 has been cancelled, but Sports Interactive deserve considerable praise for their approach. The latest entry in the long-running coaching simulation series was set to release in March after considerable delays, but the developer will instead now focus on the next title, Football Manager 26.

Yes, for those of you who haven’t seen it – which is fair because at time of writing it was posted 21 minutes ago – Nintendo have finally announced the Switch 2.

Explaining how the collaboration came about, Willcox says: “It was one of those great Instagram connections.

The posts had a great response from my followers, and I could see the need for me to provide links to the plants I was featuring.
