Australia V South Africa has just started.
South Africa batting first and 1/29 already. Graeme Smith out LBW, they have been targeting his pads all morning and finally worked.

Really liking it so far. Although I have only read to chapter 9, I'll fire ya my email addy soonish.

Sorry to be pedantic but I found a plot hole, the mother rings the character at his house and asks where he is, he later explains at the lunch that he has lost his mobile. Now I don't ring someones house number and ask where they are so FIX THAT SHIT.......

Nah great story so far and oddly enough is pretty much my life the last 8 months.

Have you seen Blow with Johnny Depp? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0221027/

There's also Basketball Diaries if you have, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112461/

In truth I'd reccommend both.


Was going to also recommend the Basketball Diaries. Great flick, drugs ruined the kid he had it all to look forward to and fucked it.

can't find the editor now its downloaded the full game, where is that?


Have to go to your games library in steam. Up the top just below where it says Library it has a search bar and next to it says all games. You have to click it go to tools then download the editor from there.

My issue is that no matter the tactics my wingers won't even try to put in a cross. It's really annoying.


I'm opposite, my wingers cross like crazy.

On another note anyone notice the crazy amount of hit back goals. As in scored a minute or two after a previous goal, happens both for me and against me quite a bit.

Love how Lucas himself said a few years back that another one would never be made by him or anyone else.

Disney also brought Marvel


Money changes people. I wouldn't say no to 4 billion.
On the other hand however he has always said he wanted star wars to be handed down to future generations (I think the first time he said it he wanted his children to run it) and the quotes regarding other star wars movies I believe he said they wouldn't happen while he is alive. He has no choice now that he sold it off.

Yeah I signed him 5 days earlier and hasn't even played a friendly for me, yet it's not far off the mark to say I'm going to sell him.

When I scored the second I had a feeling they would nab a third, no idea we would also get a third lol.

I got an instant dismissal for using one of our transport carriers to ship goods that we were told we could take home, catch was we obviously couldn't sell them which I did.

I wouldn't use the two poacher system either. Leave Sanogo as the poacher and play Cavani as a deep lying forward, he has great natural fitness and work rate so having him drop back looking for the ball and laying on the ball for Sanogo might help a bit.

I am enjoying it, I've learnt to base my tactic around the issues with the match engine until the full game is out and it seems to be working okay for me. Having a pretty enjoyable season. There are some nifty features too though, my head of youth development has unearthed some gems already and the deadline day feature is pretty cool.

I managed to snag Timothy Chandler for £3m as a replacement for Johnson. Might take a bit of sucking up to the Nurnberg manager though and do it at the beginning of the game.

Good young American right back, I remember him becoming one of the best players in the world on a long term FM 12 game I had which is rare for an American. His debut against Reading resulted in man of the match performance with an assist and constant problems up the right wing for the defence. He is looking very solid so far.

Just had something happen that I'm sure every single person who isn't a Liverpool fan would like. Suarez yellow carded for diving, then Suarez sent off for diving lol.

Also like the injury challenge, gives me a proper chance to use youngsters I would never have heard of from random teams.

Annoying how you go into player search, set your filters then scroll though all the players click on them offer a contract or scout them or whatever then go back and it doesn't remember where you were so it takes you to the top of player search again.

No it just seems like another person having a dig at him and Liverpool for no reason.
There is nothing wrong with the wording, I see it as Suso is happy at Liverpool and Rodgers has faith that his ability will transfer to the first team hence the commitment to him and the new contract.

Liking the training camp feature. Welcome change, be interesting to see the benefits of it to players though.

Also really like the ticker feature during games, has given me some invaluable information regarding tactics.

But he's still 17. Let's give him a break, at least until december when he turns 18 and is still chasing 15 year olds.

Oh wait I have just thought of Bian when he is 30.

He probably asks her to speak with a German accent though. Gets his pants a little bit wet. I imagine any scene with bian and a girl would be a lot like Jim in American Pie. Haha.
