Tis reet good, might also buy Foals' new album, but waiting til it's on Spotify so I can check it isn't shite before buying it.

Oh and I just pre-ordered this:

Missed out by 1 goal at the weekend on the goal rush.

Even more gutting was coming home to find my mum's other half won £1200 from £20.

Pretty sure the only thing that changed name wise with this whole ownership was plc to ltd. Think we've been registered as The Rangers Football Club since 1899. Although I maybe wrong.

As for this buying the badge/stadium etc. How can a new club buy old history?

Certain sections of Scotland seem to be the only place that bothers with this whole new club thing. I don't understand the absolute ins and outs of this whole thing but we are recognised as the Rangers we have always been officially.

I'm not fussed with the other fans though, let them say what they will. To me we always have been and always will be Rangers, same club, same fans.

Just started watching White Collar, quite impressed so far.

Just reviewing my active series, trying to see where I can squeeze some more in.

Dexter
Sons of Anarchy
Supernatural
The Mentalist
The Office (US)
Arrested Development
Suits
White Collar

Quite a lot going on at the moment with a few on a break and some just coming back from a break.

I keep getting recommended Parks and Recreation, but I watched the first episode and the woman just seems like she is a carbon copy of Michael Scott.

Hopefully there will be some decent bands as well and that will get me through.

I've got Jake Bugg tickets for next year, looking forward to that!

Just got a Reading Festival ticket. Never been to a festival but won't get too many chances to see Eminem these days.

I've noticed a lot of the goals I concede are from crosses. I am still playing through from my first career on this version and it happens a lot.

I still get decent results, just dread a cross coming in because they almost always end up in the back of the net.

As I say, it doesn't seem to be a major problem, just slightly higher than normal.

Managed to get Killers tickets yesterday.

I couldn't pass up the chance to see them purely because of how quick they sell out!

Had a bit of luck again lately.

Won quite a bit last weekend and my goal rush came in today for £130 off of £5.

Really needed that! Walked home from the pub last night and strolled in to Tesco pissed and purchased Halo 4 and Black Ops 2

Never heard it be called Wembley Singles or Doubles

Everywhere I've played it in a kickabout down south has been called Cuppy or World Cup.

One of the twitter tip pages suggests stoke, Chelsea but united -1?

What does the -1 mean? Might stick 1.50 on.


-1 is basically the goals that the team start with.

So If Man U win 1-0, you would lose the bet because technically they've drawn 0-0. Basically, -1 means the team has to win by 2 goals.

Is this slow for anyone else?

I have never had a problem with the speed of FM before. My longest game last season was like 15 seasons and it was still running as smooth as ever.

However, despite this running smooth, when I select my team, it seems to take a while from when I actually deselect or select a player's position. It's like I'm playing online and it is slightly behind or something.

Had £30 on Man U and Chelsea double last night, £130 return was a nice way to end a shit night out.

Some guy in the pub before a gig I went to last night said he had £5 on Wanyama first goal at 40/1.

Oh yea, I'm not saying it isn't difficult for them. Pretty much every goal has been sloppy though, basic errors.

Faure has loads of time to get better yet and I'm pretty sure Cribari will settle. Ross Perry and Argiriou just really haven't started well, especially when it comes to actually distributing the ball, they pump it up field every single time.

Hopefully they all come good though, had high hopes for Perry at the end of last season.
