Is there audio coming out of the sound jack next to the aerial socket?

Are you hearing no sound at all, or do you hear tape loading audio but no game music?

Try the BEEP command in Speccy basic

BEEP 2,8

If you hear that and the tape loading screeches, but no game music, then you have one of those Plus 2’s that has unbalanced audio between the AY chip output and the Speccy beeper audio. If you turn your telly audio to the max, you might hear the Speccy audio really quiet like.

That can be fixed by someone with a soldering iron and more knowledge than I.

"arial socket :)"

Probably best off getting a +2A/+2B scart cable, if yours is the black model. If it's the grey +2 model then you'll need a slightly different cable.

At least you won't have to invest your entire spare time to play it like modern footie management sims. :)

If you fancy something even older but with updated teams and players:
