  1. Really liked the look of the new 2D Zelda, should be great fun, and enjoyed that same artstyle in the Links Awakening remake. Also - Metroid Zero Mission, Turok and Perfect Dark all on NSO, today! Had to immediately pause the direct, get the N64 Switch pad out and start charging it at that point. Felt sorry for RPG fans though, barely anything announced for them...
  2. Father to Son From Bryan to Angus Gunn Don't Forget To pick the ball out of your nettttt
  3. In the previous relegation season, there wasn't just a failure of one footballing aspect of the club - they all failed. Player recruitment failed badly Player sales failed badly There was a failure to recruit a new head of recruitment until after the transfer window ended First team management failed badly There was a failure to take timely action to sack the first team manager There was a failure to recruit the right new manager There was a failure to recruit a new manager quickly enough There were failings in the medical side of the football operation requiring the replacement of the top man there The mens academy failed badly enough that they would have been relegated without a fortuitous league restructuring. So - are we to believe that all of these failed aspects, covering all facets of the football side of the organisation - are NOT the responsibility of the director of football?
  4. Sign them both, then spend the rest of the scouting budget desperately searching wyscout databases to find a player called Dick MediumPenis to partner them in midfield.
  5. The more direct style "working" for us in the Prem might not have cost hundreds of millions, but it required the best striker we've ever had at his peak, one of the best technical dribbling wingers around and the absolute best defensive midfielder of his generation in the middle of the park. Removing one of those players (Kante) immediately turned us into also rans the following season. We can't afford a peak Vardy equivalent or the next Kante either at this moment.
  6. This is bang on - for all the complaints about the football being boring last season, there has to be allowances for how passive and defensive 90% of the opposition teams were, especially at the KP. On numerous occasions, hermansen could be stood on the ball, walking forward, and the opposition would sprint top speed...back into their own half. They would vacate the entire attacking half of the pitch because they were afraid of engaging a goal keeper. It's all well and good wanting counter attacking, fast football, but if the opposition won't attack in the first place, your stuck with nothing happening, or swiftly attacking head first into a packed 10 man block behind the ball, and swiftly losing it. The more exciting games were against teams like Southampton, Leeds, Ipswich and Birmingham, who weren't afraid to have a go at us, and it lead to a much more exciting game, as counter attacks became much more viable, because there was actually something to counter.
  7. My tip on furniture for a first house is to check out British Heart Foundation's furniture shops - if you find a good sofa in there, they'll deliver it to you for about a tenner extra, and there's normally some decent sofas in there, that will be hundreds of pounds less than buying a brand new one.
  8. Vaz isn't standing for Labour, he's standing for One Leicester, aka the party for ex Labour councillors who've fallen out with Peter Soulsby. Which means the candidate list now has a Labour candidate Vs 2 ex Labour MPs who've held the seat. Should be quite the entertaining bunfight. I live in Leicester West, so our constituency will be quite boring in comparison.
  9. CEX website actually tells you the prices they pay for the games, so you can look up yourself how much you would get there.
  10. It's actually a new kind of Financial Fair play rule. If you have a chairman called Top, then PL says you have to finish bottom.
  11. And the one win was against..... Steve Cooper's forest. I'm pretty resigned to us going straight back down if he's the choice.
  12. once that comes in, the whole competition just devolves into Man Utd win forever, guaranteed, thanks to the infinite spending cheat of having an infinite supply of glory hunting twats buying merch, inifnite glory hunting megacorps shovelling ill gotten gains into their pockets and infinite TV money because Sky Sports wants them on constantly to attract even more glory hunting twats to watch and megacorps to advertise to them. We'll be scratching around desperately trying to put together a team of Bosmans and pay them a salary, they just go LOL ADIDAS MONEY PRINTER GO 100 MILLION.
  13. Don't blame me. I voted for Kodos.
  14. He's kept hold of his precious ring though, to stop any filthy hobbitssss from taking it.
  15. Has anyone seen those shit Keir Starmer doll ads on Youtube? This bollocks: They pop up often, and they're not even obviously attributed to a particular party (although you can easily enough guess that it's shit Tory patter). In the old days, on TV, you'd at least get your "this is a party political broadcast by ..." disclaimer. Or posters / newspaper ads would at least have the logo of the party responsible. But now we've got a free for all of internet ads, lobbed up by any arsehole, with no rules or anything behind it. Then you've got people getting parties communiating to them via bloody Tiktoks and shit memes. It's like we've ended up with a system where we are just absorbing the culture and shit standards of American political electioneering into our system, with an added sprinkling of Wild West Internet free-for-all on top.
  16. That explains why Enzo didn't like him, he didn't seem that keen on subs
  17. Features: Wishing you a Wombling Merry Christmas I wish it could be Christmas Every Day Last Christmas Does not feature: You've got to fight, for your right, to Amartey
  18. When you are wearing the Amazing Thailand always Amazes you create Iconic King Power Retro Collection White Label Limited Edition fashion, you are guaranteed to be doing you. Because nobody else will want to.
  19. The big improvements last season were all based around having a new manager, and the restoration of some semblance of fight and team spirit into the playing squad. What absolutely didn't change at all, was the absolute bin fire that the club are at executive level. So now, the manager is going. we have some serious holes to sort out in the playing squad (largely in midfield, especially if KDH and Wilf leave), and a new manager to recruit. And everything rests in the hands of the wonder team that thought Jesse Marsch looked a hot prospect, thought keeping Brendan Rodgers for an additional 80% of the season after he had already given up, and has previously "been impressed" by David Wagner and a litany of other **** ups under the belt. I'm worried, very worried. Add in at least one points deduction to come as well, and we are set up for an even worse season than the last one in the Prem. Still, at least no threat to Jon Rudkin's job though, so at least one person will get to enjoy next season while everything around the club is descending back into chaos.
  20. Our club, turning Atomic Kitten into an Atomic War Crime against football.
  21. Looking back when Enzo first left, Rudkin phoned one agent and barrels got scraped, Southgate was the one, Four right backs get subbed on Then Leicester's lost at home again
  22. As bad as those Man City emails about owners providing "fake sponsorship" money are - the sums involved don't actually look any higher than what Man United gets off chump companies for being shit but followed by a zillion glory hunting social media goobers. They are as much of the problem IMO, the amounts they get just for "being Yanited" from the media and companies, despite actually being a big old pile of shit on the pitch for a decade, is obscene. The media are a massive part of the issue for tossing off the big 6 constantly, and commecial multi national companies are the other part of the issue for pumping money in to grab exposure to the audience that the media creates in its big 6 jizzfest. Meanwhile, the other 14 teams are constantly belittled, kept off air, treated as an afterthought and starved of commercial revenue as a result. If the league is to be a level playing field, then the TV time and attention devoted to each team should be equal.
  23. Looks like a bottle of lucozade after its been in a house fire.
  24. FYI, just tried to get the latest episode downloaded on AntennaPod (Android), and the feed (I thinks it's a megaphone.fm feed) looks like it's broken.
  25. At least this occurred prior to the park being named Nelson Mandela park. If the same thing occurred now, the prisoner would be lying there, screaming in pain from their broken legs, staring up at a sign reminding them "There is no easy walk to freedom anywhere" Not quite such an inspirational quote in that circumstance
