I too was introduced to Championship Manager at that point. '93 with the end of season update I believe - the one with two fictional players (who were developers) at Cambridge Utd. The most amazing thing is that it only required 2x (iirc) 3.5" floppy disks - one for game and one for save.
Amiga games themselves were rife around here. Everyone was at it with XCopy (used to love the GUI by the way haha).
Still have my Amiga 1200 somewhere and it still works (or did last time I fired it up).
Sensi Soccer, Champ Manager, Winter Olympics, Cannon Fodder, Railroad Tycoon and the excellent Jolly Rogers Cookbook and a few different versions of the x-copy were amongst the must haves.
There were some cracking games around then.
The dot-matrix printer I had, sounded like something off Grandstand, but it did the job!
