UK developer Sports Interactive's management team has been nominated for Ernst and Young's Entrepreneur of the Year Awards 2002. Sports Interactive has been developing the Championship Manager football management simulation since the late 1980s, when it was just Paul and Oliver Collyer trying to entertain their friends. Along with the company's recently installed managing director Miles Jacobson, they are being recognised for their achievements. The threesome of finalists will be attending the Awards ceremony, to be held at The Royal Lancaster Hotel in London on 27th June, and confess to being humbled and honoured by the nomination, although Miles is still busy talking about ITV Digital's Monkey.
