Well I guess I'll give this a bump - how many of you all play COD MW Warzone?

Surprised @Dan or someone hasn't posted anything!

There was an updated version added on 8th Jan, do't know if that made it here?

I don't mean this in a harsh or cruel way, but this man will die as a manager of a football club. Hasn't he retired about three times now? I used to think the same about Harry Redknapp but I don't think he'd go lower than the Premiership these days whereas Warnock would manage a Sunday league team.

It's definitely odd.

I am glad it has returned though.

Aaaaand I'm furloughed.

I've heard the same from a copper and a friend whose boyfriend is in the army. Also, a friend in London saw a lot of army movement around the capital today. Meant to start in London and cover the rest of the country throughout Friday and the weekend.

We shall see.

Normally have SSN on whenever in my office, now it's on BBC news...

That seems crazy. China have just released 36k+ of recovered Corona patients from hospitals and that kicked off over there in January, their numbers are falling now. 4 months tops for the actual virus to run its course in infecting people in Europe (inluding the UK, Brexit doesn't change geography); as for how long until the economy recovers - that's the real question!

So, what have we found ourselves watching sports wise to fill this void? So far I have taken in up to fifteen minutes of snooker, bowls and bowling.

My missus works at a shop here in the UK called The Range, don't really know how to describe it to those outside of the UK - it sells a bit of everything.

Today was a nightmare at the store, very busy. They've sold out of loo roll (again), all the hand sanitiser is long gone and now people are stocking up on bottled water! Don't understand, myself.

Let's hope they can get it back up and running in a few weeks, delay Euro 2020 for a couple of years and let them run into summer a bit.

Just waiting for schools/nurseries to close, then the shit will really hit the fan.

Bah, just play the games behind closed doors if it comes to it.

Lot of scare mongering.

Can't see your screenshot? It needs to be a file ending in a image format, like .jpg or .png and uploaded to an image hosting website.

A tad OTT for FM:

Need to get my new computer up and running and all the graphics redownloaded and then will give this a go!

Yes, the old seasons are, and they are currently releasing one episode a week of the new season. When they have released all of the latest season, I will then binge it.

Me again! Looks like we have got Neil Critchley from Liverpool U23s to be our new manager. Happy with this, unexpected as it was! Much better appointment than Larry.




In other news, didn't realise Boro were bottom three at the mo!

Phew, a last minute winner against Ipswich means I can go to work this week with a smug grin!

Gutted we missed out on appointing Karl Robinson. Betting seems to be suspended now as Alex McLeish lurks around Bloomfield. Not for me, personally. Seems he is not even in this year's FM database!

I wait 'til the full season is available and then binge it!

Istanbul Basaksehir v FC Copenhagen

Olympiakos v Wolverhampton Wanderers

Rangers v Bayer Leverkusen

Wolfsburg v Shakhtar Donetsk

Inter Milan v Getafe

Sevilla v Roma

Red Bull Salzburg or Eintracht Frankfurt v Basel

LASK v Manchester United

Safe to say I don't see Chelsea making a comeback in the second leg.

Forgot to say, tried this with the Dutch challenge. Seemed to work really well at home, with the odd blip. Away from home, not so good.

I did this in one 5 hour session

So, smashed through this tonight.

Wanted a tactic to have three at the back as I wanted to start De Vrij, De Ligt and Van Dijk together so downloaded our own @VP. 's latest tactic. In hindsight this did mean I missed out on playing with some nice Dutch wingers but I shoehorned Depay up front so I least had one. Form was very hit and miss, we only managed to make 5th and the mighty Welsh knocked us out of the play offs, they were on fire all season. Don't know how the Italians finished so high!

Depay finished third in the overall goalscorers, though if woodwork and offsides had slipped in he would have been top easily. So no points there.

The cup seemed to be what our players were after. Even beating the Germans on penalties in the earlier rounds. However, the Argies were a different class in the semis and went on to win the cup in Extra time against the English. Enjoy the trophy chaps, the Falklands are still ours.


So points wise:
5th place (no playoff win): 25 points
Semi: 60 points

Total: 85 points

Not very good, but enjoyable! Looking forward to see what is next!

One for @Footygamer I reckon!

Well, finally the board realised that Larry Grayson lost his powers when the last of his hair went and we got rid of him. David Dunn now in caretaker charge and I don't think he wants the job, results aren't any better under him either so please don't give it him. Don't know who we can attract at the moment though!

Do they overtake in this "race" format yet?
