  1. Lets be honest here, Allen and Gerrard are doing a stellar job recruitment wise.

    We will reap the benefits of this when 55 comes and it will be so sweet to see the mhanky mob crumble under the pressure we will put on them in the coming months.

    I expect to see Goldson, Katic and Barasic in our starting 11 for years to come until EPL clubs come knocking.. which they no doubt will if they continue to develop.

    The jury is out on Grezda, if we have paid as much for him as reported then I will keep my fingers crossed he comes good but if we're trying to take Kent on a permanent deal then it may result in perhaps Middleton going out on loan which may not be a bad thing. The boy needs game time under a good man management coach.

    We have plenty of dig in the middle now, Jack, Arfield, Rossiter (when fit) and McCrorie. Davis will bring that missing bit of guile and sly passes to cut open defenses and when Dorrans finally returns this will give the gaffer a major headache when it comes to selections.

    I still think we need another CB, who is ours, and not on loan. And now with the additions of Jones and Kamara we are looking in a much better position than the start of the season.

    Even saying that, we have "four quality forwards" to work with. Morelos, Defoe, Lafferty and Hardie (who is one I had always hoped would make the grade.

     

    The futures bright, the futures Red, White and Blue.

    55 is coming home and when it does it'll be the culmination of all of our heartache and disappointment over the last 7 years.

  2. I had always hoped Ryan would break into the first team, nothing like seeing one of our own scoring goals for the team they love but unfortunately as it hasn't really happened for him by now I doubt it ever will. All he really lacks is the physical presence, the boy is a natural goalscorer for sure, and he will no doubt go on to make a successful career for himself.

  3. I signed a Turkish striker Tevfik Kose back in FM08 for around 100k iirc, come January time he had banged in around 30 goals in all competitions and Besiktas put in a bif of around £7.5m which the board accepted without my say.

     

    I always went for Charles Andre Doudin, fairly cheap and was guaranteed 20+ goals and a healthy profit when it came to selling him on.

    I used to work in the Sky call center at Ibrox and on lunch break one day a colleague and I decided we'd go buy ourselves a couple of ties from the Megastore as it was a shirt and tie effort. We both strolled in wearing this exact tie and within minutes we were frog marched out and told to go home and get changed! Needless to say neither of us lasted long in that job.

    In his post match interview after the Sheffield I Thoth he came across as a bit of a prick. Interviewer asked him if he felt he had a point to prove after last season he replied no haha he must be fulla crack if he thinks he's not got a point to prove. Thinks he's better than he is imo.

     

    I noticed that too, came off as a bit arrogant but I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt here as he alluded to MW playing him out of position affecting his performances.

    they will be praying hard that robertson gets sold from hull to a premier league club as they are due a sell on fee

    I can't see anything difinitive anywhere, but there are rumours he will be unveiled as a Liverpool player when the window opens for a reported £8m.

    Which is a shame because I'd love to see that horrible little club fold.

    My computer is running perfectly well but if I open any games, it's soooo slow.

    I'll be 'hovering' over new game or load for about 5 seconds before it realises I'm on it.

    Any ideas?

     

    What are the specs? Most low end rigs should handle FM smoothly with no issues.

  8. Anyone got any Brexit experiences yet?

     

    In my current game (Rangers, season 20/21) the UK has left the EU and Gibraltar held an Independence referendum and left the UK.

    Any non-UK player is now considered foreign and work-permit rules apply the same way non-EU players work permits worked prior to Brexit (needing to have played 75% of internationals in a season for  a top 50 ranking country). It has definitely encouraged me to develop home grown talent though it is becoming difficult to keep them happy when EPL teams come in for them since they're now having difficulties also signing non-UK players.
