Here is Eidos' answer to SI's major announcement of upcoming major announcements (or did SI just react to the Eidos story really fast?)
'Championship Manager 5' Revealed
Posted on Friday, January 30 @ 03:46:05 PST
In an interview with MCV, the UK's games trade mag, Ric Williams of Eidos Interactive reveals that North London-based Beautiful Game Studios is creating the latest Championship Manager title. BGS is a dedicated internal Eidos studio with 30 staff who have over 100 cumulative years development experience, and have previously worked on over 90 titles, 60 of which were football titles (thanks VE3D).

Eidos, having lost the various scouts and statistician who helped create the player databases in Sports Interactive's previous CM games, has recruited an agency that provides information and statistics on players and clubs, as well as a "highly qualified" European coach who will act as a consultant on the game.
Interestingly, Eidos believes that the fanbase is loyal to the brand name rather than the game and Sports Interactive who created all previous Championship Manager titles. While Sports Interactive cannot discuss their new title due to contractual obligations, you can gain a first look at Championship Manager 5 by hitting up www.Championshipmanager.co.uk from February 1st, where information regarding the development team and game will be posted, as well as allowing fans to discuss the game on their official forums.
