I totally understand what Sam means about friends living in other places, its quite annoying and I rarely seem to speak to anyone that I get on with nowadays.

Just got 8 games and 2 DLCs for around £65 on Steam. I've really got to stop doing things like that.

So we've just witnessed Messi miss a penalty and an open goal in the space of 1 second.

This game is crying out for Bony and Navas.

I've lost interest in GTA whilst waiting for the heists to be added. I'm just playing Payday 2 instead.

So Dzeko is playing because Barca are 'weak' in the air. Surely Navas should be playing then? Its not like Nasri is going to sprint down the wing and whip crosses in.

Tom Cleverley has always been good for me when i've used him. I've got him at Middlesbrough in my current save and he was also a key player for me when I managed Borussia Monchengladbach once.

Just looking through some other clubs reserve teams and found this at Ipswich. Thats an impressive beard, especially considering he is 16 years old!

By the way, that player is the result of a regen facepack. Can be found HERE if anyone is interested in it.

Summer Transfer Window

Despite having a £30m transfer budget, we only ended up spending £6.1m. That was mainly because we were able to get three new players on free transfers and one on loan. Robert is looking like a great buy for £2.5m. My staff tell me he has much more potential to fill which could see him turn into a great player. Also, he will be providing backup to Nathan who was a £3.4m signing last summer. I highly recommend you check out both of them should you need a AMC in the future!

Most of our transfers out were loans. We made a bit of a loss on Hanley but we did sell Clifford Aboagye for £6m. Aboagye had only signed for us last summer for £2.5m, but had to be loaned out due to work permit issues. Hull came in with a bid and with the potential arrival of Di Maria in the coming weeks, I decided to cash in. Lee Tomlin has also left for £2m going to join up with Wayne Rooney at Huddersfield.

As posted previously, we thumped Debrecen in the Europa League 1st leg. I fielded a second string team for the second leg and eventually went through 8-3 on aggregate. We then had to travel to Israel for the playoff tie with Maccabi Tel Aviv. It was the same story as the Debrecen game as we put six past them in the first leg and played a reserve team in the second leg with our progress already secured.

Just the three league games so far. A bad loss on the opening day to Southampton was followed up with a win over Hull and a draw away at Brighton.

The draw for the Europa League group stage was ok I guess. If we can win all our home games, then we should make it through this group.

The league table doesn't really matter after three games, but after that mixed start we are in 12th. Top 4 is the aim for this season!

Italian football is at a real low right now. Wasn't so long ago that they had 3 world class teams that could win the CL, but now not a single one of them is even close to challenging for it. That scandal in 2006 is still harming the Italian leagues to be honest.

They can have the Mickey Mouse Cup, I'm sure they'll savour it for years to come.

I'd much rather win it than not win it, even if it is a shit trophy.

And just as I said that the ref stops in. Good effort by Murray to make it to the 11th round though.

Just signed up for Network and wanted to know what some of the most watch shows where. Hardly caught anything in 90s and early 2000s so any recommendations


What Shola said really. Royal Rumble 2001 was pretty good and anything from around 1999-2001 that involved the Hardys, Dudleys and Edge & Christian is worth a watch.

Surprised to see QPR and Palace up there, no doubt they'll fall away so that would bump you up to at least 6th.

I know it's Hungary, and I still expect you to win, but Debrecen are a solid team.

Not on this evidence.

Can't see us going through. Needed to win the home leg but failed to convert all those early chances. Paulinho needs to be dropped and then sold in the summer, he offers nothing and we are always a worse team when he plays.

Everton doing well. 3-1 up away at Young Boys after 39 minutes. Although 2 of their goals were offside.

Game crashed, had to do the friendlies and EL draw twice. Got St. Gallen before the crash, but this draw isn't really any harder or easier.

Boro's European Return

Last seasons 6th place finish got us into the Europa League qualification stage. We got a kind draw which should serve as a good warmup match for the group stages.

Don't know if anyone is following Golovkin v Murray, but Golovkin has 31 fights, 31 wins with 28 KOs. Ridiculous.

Fucking disgusting. The most vile club in the World. I'd be genuinely be happy if they got liquidated; they're absolute scum. All of the club.

Sadly that doesn't surprise me coming from them. Their away fans have given out some disgusting abuse when i've seen Spurs play them.

Got a feeling Shakhtar could win on away goals.
