From thedugout.net ...
"SI Games announced in a press release that CM 03/04 will be the very last Championship Manager game ever to be 'developed' by the London based game developer. After CM 03/04, both SI and Eidos will go their separate ways with Eidos keeping the title Championship Manager. SI Games will be entitled to the source code and the player database, so I think we could expect the same game to appear under a different name in the future. In the meantime, SI is looking for London based testers for CM 03/04. Testing has already started, so head over to SI Games to find out how to become a tester."
So although the CM brand will die, it appears as if they'l carry on a similiar game under a different name.
Still, a sad day :(

Great i love CM but ANOTHER Update is getting too far im not paying for this when there's other great games to be found.
If they want to be sucessful though, they'll need to recruit some of the stattoes from SIGames. Amazing to think that in just over 10 years the series has gone from being produced by someone programming it in their bedroom, to the most popular management series in football.
Eidos have the rights to the Champ Man name and will work internally on it. That's what I've heard anyway.
