My mate's just got one as his upgrade, when he told me over Facebook what it was I thought he was sending a kiss at the end.

Brilliant phone, though.

This is a pretty retarded question to be fair. Not had the pleasure to talk to him yet but whenever I listen to him on Shakers Player, he differs a lot from our previous managers. Kevin tries to get the fans behind him with his emotionality and is not afraid of using offensive language to motivate players and the fans and I think not all people like this attitude but must of our fans do so and this has not been the case for Barker/Knill/Casper/Barrow or Warnock


Anyway, we are playing Leyton Orient at Gigg Lane tomorrow (if it is not called off 1 hour before the game like Tuesday *Cough*). Massive respect for Orient. They looked like a stick of shit at the start of the season but Russell Slade has turned it around and their stirkers Mooney and Lisbie are on fire. Tough game, I predict a 1-1 draw with Hewitt getting our goal.


I fucking hate Kevin Blackwell, such a smug cunt who thinks hes bigger and better than anyone else.

I agree, Manchester United don't create the best youngsters in the world, or Brazil u20s don't pick the best players available to them. If you was looking in say, the Championship and still seeing the same quality regens i'd understand... but using Man Utd and Brazil as the examples doesn't help your case.

Farcry is brilliant, but you have to be into them sort of games to enjoy it, the story is great too, its so easy to get into the characters head which is always good (especially for me, as the lead character is called Jason )

Can't wait for this, though stuff like this tend to die off after the 1st/2nd series. Hopefully this doesn't.

I don't know what season your in but maybe try Luke Shaw? He doesn't start of good, but becomes one of the best left backs in the world on the game.

The thing is like... take me right. After I left uni, I had some fairly serious health problems. I lost about 8 months of my life and I couldn't work in that time. After that, I'd be applying for jobs and I'd get a few interviews. I'd interview well but I'd lost the job to some 17 year old because he had a job stacking shelves at the Co-op. The problem isn't that there aren't jobs, it's that there's too many people applying for each one. But if you keep trying, eventually you'll find one like I did. In the meantime, the best thing you can do is get any scrap of experience you can so you can tell people what you do because there's nothing worse than having a gap in your CV that you can't really explain.


The circumstances are different for different people, though. I have a job, if i was to lose the job for any reason, i don't know what the hell i would do, JSA wouldn't cover me, nor would a part time job. If you live with parents, its very easy to live off £56. I think the amount of JSA you receive should be down to individual circumstances and not a one size fits all, because it just doesn't.

The reason foreigners get work is because they'll apply everywhere and do anything. Brits won't do the shit jobs foreigners do and think they're better than McDonalds, Cleaning etc. Employers don't purposely hire foreigners over Brits btw.

And no, if you don't have a job of course you shouldn't be living in a 2 bedroom apartment costing 470 a month. You live within your means. If you can't afford it you go somewhere where you can afford it. That's common sense.

And for everyone that keeps saying there are no jobs in the UK. Fuck off. There's hundreds of thousands of jobs. Just google 'jobs' and you'll see tonnes of job sites with thousands of jobs. A hell of a lot of people are on JSA because they're lazy, not because they can't get a job.

Because it's about progression. Working will get you experience, which in turn will give you the chance to get better jobs. People just expect to fall into a brilliant job without working for it.


Show me a place where you can live for £56 per week, please. Then i will rest my case.

I wholeheartedly, fully 1000000% agree with you on this, however there are another half of them people that actually do want a job but genuinely cannot find one, and i know that, because my friend is in the same boat, hes got all his degrees, awards etc in care work, but cannot find a job in that sector.

If you're on JSA earning 56 quid a week you're not going to live in an apartment costing 470 quid a month after bills are you?

Working Part-Time would give you experience, experience which would be helpful in finding a full time job. Who do you think I would rather hire, someone who has been on JSA for 2 months, or someone who has been working? If you proved yourself working part time then there's more chance you would be offered more hours/a full time role.


So your saying, if your on JSA you can't live on your own? I pay £390 in rent, for a 2 bedroom, now that's fairly cheap as most peak at £450-£500 for a 2 bed.. 2million people claim JSA because there aren't enough jobs out there for people, Im sure a lot of them live on there own, struggling to make ends meet, thats how it is in the UK.

I know of plenty of foreign persons that have come to the UK from whatever country and got a job almost instantly, without experience, that's the UK for you again, that's where the problem lies, there are thousands upon thousands of people that are genuinely seeking work, like the OP, but they are realistic, whats the point? Working 16 hours per week, getting £56 a week, when you could be doing the same as people that are not even bothered about finding a job, and still getting that £56.

Is it me or are there far less new skins coming out than in recent years? The game released almost 2 months ago and there are like 3-4 skins completed..


The game hasn't even been out a month, yet.

The free-kick for the 2nd was so fucking soft too. Henderson barely touched Dempsey and he went down like a racist Uruguayan.


Like Suarez?

Unless of course he walks to work


Yeah which is fine, if its only 10minutes down the road. That's the easiest thing you could put, doesn't answer my point though. What if walking to work isn't an option? Not everbody can actually walk to work, and you can't say "if it was an hours bus journey, he wouldn't take it" its a fact that if your on JSA you have to be willing to travel for up to 90 minutes to work. If they find that you have declined a job because you don't want to travel up to 90 minutes, your money is stopped.

And your advice is not to take a part-time job because there's loads of full-time jobs out there.


No, but after travel costs to/from work, you'll not be picking £56 per week, well at least i wouldn't, you'd be even worse off if you drive, infact you couldn't manage to run a car on £56 per week.

I'm sorry that my welfare/living is more important, this is how £56 would do me per week, i pay £390 per month in rent, i also pay £60-£80 a month in Gas/Electric (this is all without food remember.), if i was to work 64 hours a month for only, £225 per month, my bus fair to get to the job, would cost me £11 per week, that's already £44 taken out of my monthly wage, leaving me with £180, where would i live? Even being on JSA is wouldn't be very good, but I'd be saving £44 a month, on travel costs.

I know there is housing benefits etc, but if you work 16 hours your benefit is greatly reduced to what it'd be if you worked 0 hours.

Hence my reasoning, working part time for 16 hours a week, would be more unbeneficial than not working and still getting the same amount.

I'm willing to guess that Jay. fell into a job as soon as he left college/school


You wouldn't be far wrong. I know a guy who worked for PC World, he got me into the call center at Know How, which wasn't called Know How then, it was actually a company that PC World/Currys hired to handle all there calls, Capita International, which was then sold onto DSGI before PC World/Currys bought it back. Been there through it all, in todays world, its now what you know, its who you know. Sad but true.

GCSE/A-Level/Degree's however good they are, don't guarantee you a job.
