Awoke to find this email in my inbox:

There may be no single activity as deadly (or short-lived) as being a Blood Bowl Team Manager.

In fact, you have signed up for one of the hardest, most unforgiving jobs in all existence, and we applaud you for this brazen display of bravery. May you and your team enjoy great success as you fight to win the coveted Blood Bowl Cup!

Since our initial announcement during Gen Con 2010, we have received countless prospective Blood Bowl Team Manager submissions. The scope and wild variety of teams that have set their sights on winning the biggest trophy in the Old World is staggering.

And although we had experienced an unexpectedly long delay (whether due to an unexpected Chaos incursion, or massive gobbo uprising, depending on which rumour you believe to be more credible), today it was of upmost priority for us to keep you, our most passionate fans, informed.

So without further ado, welcome to: Blood Bowl Team Manager – The Card Game!

See you on the pitch…

yeah,
I wanted this when they said it was a non collectable deck building game.
I was hoping for some sort of MTG lite set in blood bowl land, something where two+ people build a team deck and then compete in games of bloodbowl.
Keeping track of their team as a season plays out by tweaking the deck after each game.

But they say they changed the direction of the game during design.
Details are here, but Now it seems to be you receive a preset basic team (6 races to chose from) and there are random events to deal with. you don't play games, you just make decisions for plays from that weeks 'highlights'... the aim of the game now is to gain fan factor!
the more highlights you win the more you improve you basic team.

I'm Not sure I want this anymore, it looks complicated like game design gone mad, why not just play games of card based bloodbowl!?
This is a game in progress?

I'll have another look when it's released and is reviewed.

Panic...
