     The corner kicks are now radically changed giving the player far more
     control.It is possible to kick the ball with a left or right bias,
     Curl the ball in or out using "AfterTouch" and control the height of the
     ball. There are nine settings of shot control.

     maximum will take the ball past the far post.Move J/S to highlight the
     strength required and press the F.B.
    B)Press the F.B again.The duration for which you hold the F/B determines
      the height of the ball.Releasing the F.B. starts the run up of the
      player taking the corner kick.
    C)Before the player reaches the ball,the ball can be given a left or right
      bias by moving the J/S left or right.The duration for which the J/S is
      kept left or right determines the amount of bias.If the J/S is not moved
      the ball will be kicked straight.

      only a short amount of time.

 7.2 THROW IN :
     The computer will automatically take a throw unless the F.B is pressed
     before a throw in is taken.The duration for which the F.B is kept
     determines the distance for which the ball is thrown.Move J/S to
     determine the direction of the throw and releasethe F.B Only five
     forward positions of  the joystick can be used.

     Keep the F.B pressed.Move the J/S forward and then reverse the direction
     of the J/S,releasing the F.B at the same time.
     The ball will be flicked in the air giving you the opportunity to do
     either a blinding header or a spectacular overhead kick.

9.0 PITCHES
 There are three additional pitches.
 1 - ICY    - Increases ball pace and travel.
 2 - MUDDY  - Ball travel reduced drastically bothin the air and on the ground
              Player  stamina is greatly reduced.
 3 - BUMPY  - This is a non-league pitch.On hitting the ground,the ball is
              likely to fly off in any direction.
 9.1 New graphics have been introduced for the normal pitch and the pitch
     is called WEMBLEY.

10.0 PLAYER ATTRIBUTES
 There is an additional player attribute called FLAIR. Players with a high
 degree of Flair are likely to play more of an intervidual game than a team
 game.

11.0 OFFSIDE
 The OFFSIDE - Rule only comes into play for the following player modes.
 TWO PLAYERS - Against each  other.
 Three and Four player mode.
 RULES :
 A player is offside if he receives the ball while there is no opposition
 player (excluding the Keeper) between him and the goal.
 You Have the option of having the OFFSIDE on or off.

12.0 TACTICS
 12.1 The tactics implementation has now been completely changed giving
      a totally newgameplay.The old tactics positioned the players
      dependingon the position of the ball on the pitch irrespective as to
      which side had the possesion of the ball.This created weakness in the
      game stratagy occasionally.Now players movements depend on the ball
      position and whether the team is attacking or defending.
 12.2 Four  standard tactics are provided on the disc,other tactics will
      be available on the WINNING TACTICS data disc.
 12.3 P.Manager Designed Tactics - The tactics designed using the P.Manager
      tactics designer can still be loaded using Select Tactics Option which
      can be accessed via the OPTIONS MENU.

13.0 IMPORTING PLAYER MANAGER
 The name structure for the players in the Final Whistle has been altered
 to allow greater flexibility in the player names on future data discs.
 The new name structure is,however,incompatible with the name structure in
 KO2 and P.Manager . A P.Manager team loaded in Final Whistle will therefor
 lose the player names. All their skills and attributes are imported.
 To keep track of the players,make a note of each players name in the team
 and his squad number.
 For example T.J Smith listed as number 15 will appear in the no.15 position
 but under a different name.
