The
products behind Madach Software Ltd are the brainchild of the Managing
Director Tommy Larkin. With thirty years programming experience and
originally written in 2002, Tommy waited until his recent retirement
before releasing the products.
The software packages were originally written
purely as a bit of fun and were given to family and friends free of
charge. However, such was the enthusiasm of the users he was encouraged
to make them more widely available.
Tommy
commented:
“ The idea for the products started five
years ago when I heard my son complaining that he couldn’t remember
the last time a particular referee had given his team a penalty. Football
Master allows him to store as much information as he likes about any
match involving his team. This data can then get accessed at any point
in the future.
With distributors wishing to sell the product
at £29.95 and then wanting to take anything up to a 75% cut, I
took the decision to initially sell the product myself at £9.95.
It immediately makes the software available to a wider audience which
is the most important thing from my point of view. The packages were
all written as a hobby so being able to provide enjoyment to others
is just a bonus.
I have three grandchildren and I wanted the company
name to reflect their names. After all, I’ll be using any profit
from sales to spoil them! Madach is a combination of the letter within
their names.
The initial reaction to the products has been
great and I’m glad that they are capable of providing entertainment
to other sports enthusiasts like myself. The beauty of it is that they
appeal to everyone. They can be used by a young child to the older generation
like myself!"
