'Brutal Sport Football' released in 1993 by Millennium Interactive Ltd was similar to Speedball 2 in many ways, this is an ultra-violent sports game. It uses an oval ball which can be thrown or kicked, often resulting in unusual up-and-under type kicks. The gameplay is fast and flowing, and has one rule - if you can't get the ball, get the man, and decapitate him if possible. There's a lot of blood and flailing limbs, giving things a gruesomely humorous edge. There are four leagues to progress through.

Nathan Bradberry, Steve Davies, John Mason-Paull, Simon Tilling and Andy Stephens love this game and regularly take part in the "Brutal Sports Football Convention", normally hosted by Mr Bradberry in the BS postcode area. They have recently compiled an online petition on the labour website to convince Tony Blair that a sequel is worth investing in, rather than the 2012 olympics. BBC Newsnight have been very quick to pick up on this and dedicated an entire hour on the topic, replacing a rather boring story with lots of analysis and pointless banter between the presenters.
