Choose your club and take the chairman’s seat. Make the decisions that will shape the destiny of an entire club community.
The Big Chair is an in-depth football club management simulation that lets you experience the game from the boardroom rather than the touchline. From your coaching staff and transfer policy to club finances and internal politics, the final decision is yours.
RUN YOUR CLUB
Appoint your head coach, build a strong working relationship and stand by the promises you make. Negotiate transfers, renew player contracts, arrange loan deals and follow the development of young talents emerging from your academy.
Keep the wage budget under control, negotiate sponsorship deals, set ticket prices and invest in club facilities. Ambitious goals require serious resources. When necessary, use your connections to raise funds for the club—or put in your own money.
DEFEND YOUR SEAT
Supporters, club members, the board, the press, political figures and the federation all judge the club’s direction differently. A decision that wins over one group may cost you the support of another. Manage crises, maintain the balance of power within the club and answer for your decisions when election day arrives.
If your support collapses, an extraordinary general assembly may be called. Losing an election does not always end your story: move into opposition as the former chairman, collect signatures, demand a new assembly and fight to reclaim your seat.
A LIVING FOOTBALL WORLD
Rival clubs never stand still. They make transfers, rebuild their squads, struggle with financial problems or gain strength through new investors. While you pursue your own plans, the balance of power across the league continues to shift.
Follow matches from the directors’ box. Watch your team’s performance on the pitch, experience the decisive moments and see how every result affects the club community.
THE ROAD TO THE TOP
Compete through the full league pyramid, from the lower divisions to the top flight. Chase upsets in the domestic cup, make your club known in European competition and experience different journeys from the lower leagues to the summit.
YOUR FOOTBALL WORLD
Edit club and competition names however you like. Recreate familiar rivalries or play in a football universe entirely of your own.
A new story every week.
A new consequence with every decision.
A new reckoning every season.
How long can you keep your seat?
The Big Chair is free to play. Optional purchases remove advertisements, unlock different chairman backgrounds and allow you to continue your career as a former chairman after losing an election.

New country: Spain!
The directors' box is waiting. In Spain there are two ways into the chair: win the members' vote at a club they own, or buy a club that has become a company and run it as its owner. Being president comes at a price: while you sit in the chair, part of the club's annual revenue is held from your personal wealth as a guarantee, and when a term ends in the red, half the loss comes out of it.
Twenty clubs in the shadow of two giants, three divisions, the cup and a four-team Super Cup. The league caps squad costs; when you hit the cap, sell a slice of your TV income or part of the commercial company and spend tomorrow's money today. Your star has a release clause: what will you do when a rich rival puts that money on the table? Promote the kid shining in your B team, or sell him at the first offer? The league will want to take one of your home games to America and move kick-offs to lunchtime for viewers in Asia. Your call.
The game can now be played in Spanish too.
League position now pays
In England and Spain, part of the TV money is shared out at the end of the season by league position. The higher you finish, the more you earn.
Currency
Money can be shown in euros, pounds, dollars, yen or reais in every country. Change it in Settings.
Other
• Super Cup semi-finals and finals now make the headlines and the feed.
• Contract renewals show more clearly what the player wants.
