Listen up, managers! There's a new patch in town for your Championship Manager 2007. Now, although it won't be coming to town 'til March 16, it's never too early to get a good headstart. Anyhow, here's a list of some of things added:

* Player and staff data updated up to the close of the January 2007 transfer window.
* Added FA Cup Second and Third qualifying rounds.
o regionalised rounds
o teams are split into northern and southern sections.
* Updated Paint competition
o teams are sub-divided into four regional sections for round one
+ Northern (west), Northern (east), Southern (west) and Southern (east) with 16 byes consisting of 8 teams from the northern section and 8 teams from the southern section.

As for the fixed bugs:

* The user was being sent a domestic transfer email when in charge of a national side only
* Mismatch of parameter types when creating an email
* Team was entered twice into a European competition due to the rescheduling of a fixture in another competition
* Contract renewal offer was processed after a manager had left the club
