  1. Haha Liverfuds!

    Any team that spends £35M on a player who scored only 9 goals in the EPL before they signed him, any team that thinks its right to spent £20M on Jordan Henderson, any team that defended the rhat faced Suarez against racism charges deserves all the shit that comes their way!

    Liverfud a 'big' team? :lol:

    Forgot that somehow. Dalglish would still have a job had he learned when to shut his fuckin mouth. That trench-digging mentality did not suit them well, although it was to be entirely expected.

  2. I've had most versions from cs1 onwards. some clients are sending me stuff in cs6 and it's getting annoying having to get stuff back saved.

    Thankfully the mrs is about to start an OU course so I'll be able to get a proper copy of the master collection for much cheapness.

    They've made it an utter pain in the ass to acquire student copies in the States now. Have to be in a design/marketing program, has to be full time, has to be this, has to do that... Used to just be, Are you a student? Yeah?! Great, here you go.

  3. yeh i used to enter graphics comps against people using cs 4 and 5.. and do pretty well.. then i got me a copy of cs5 and omg i couldn't believe how much easier it was to do the same things lol.. even just smudging became a breeze when it used to be so damn hard

    It really is mental, even CS5 to CS6. Really, every edition is simply, "Here's a few things that used to take an hour to do that will now take you 30 seconds."

  4. hehe i only just went from PS6 to CS5.1 at the start of this year.. reckon i can get another 5-10 years out of this version too ;)

    be different if i was using it for work i guess

    Tough in an office setting because you get the new files from clients and it's embarrassing to ask someone to down sample to whatever version you're using. Thankfully a couple freelancers I use often are more up-to-date than I. craphead2.gif

    I see the CS magicians who produced stuff on PS7 or CS1 that we can only do now and think, "Meh, what's the point?"

    Most additions are shortcuts for numpties like us to be able to do what they do, anyway. tongue.gif

  5. Jarvis was transferred for an initial 7.5m but could rise to 11m, then you consider Michu who's tearing up the EPL and he cost £2m, it's pathetic.

    Not like that's the only case, either. Fuck, the whole LFC team last year was full of overpriced English "talent" for whom equivalents on the continent could've been purchsed for half price or less. Just look at Newcastle: Henderson or Cabaye? Carroll or Ba? Downing or anyone with a left foot? No comparison.

  6. His main problem was the fact he bought English players, overrated shite

    True story. What was it Sam paid for Jarvis? How many very very very good but not quite national team good Spanish players could he have bought for that? It's insane the premiums these jackasses will pay for a player just goes he's got that certain English something or other.

  7. Second-tier of the top clubs?

    No shame in that for the time being, but I doubt they'll "accept" it.

    I just don't understand what they want? Another oil shiek? They got millions and millions spent on that side just a year ago.

    I guess "accept" may be the wrong word, but their expectations are absurd. They don't make the CL, their ground is well outdated... slow slide over the course of two decade with a few bright spots thrown in, but it's not like they suddenly landed where they are. It's been coming.

    Echoes of Hicks and Gillett as fan group SoS turn on Liverpool owners

    By SPORTSMAIL REPORTER

    PUBLISHED: 12:50 EST, 4 September 2012 | UPDATED: 12:54 EST, 4 September 2012

    Called out: Tom Werner has been asked to front up by a key Liverpool fan group

    Supporters' group Spirit of Shankly have called on Liverpool chairman Tom Werner to be held accountable for the way the club is being run.

    Disquiet has been growing among fans regarding the lack of a decision on whether to build a new stadium or renovate Anfield.

    The lack of a prominent figure from owners Fenway Sports Group based on Merseyside, the sacking of iconic figure Kenny Dalglish as manager in May and, most recently, the apparent mistakes made in the transfer market have led to more murmurings of discontent.

    Principal owner John Henry wrote an open letter to fans on Monday admitting to mistakes in their near two-year reign and outlining FSG's blueprint for the future but SoS believe more questions need answering.

    'There comes a point at any football club where the chairman has to step forward on behalf of the board and be held accountable for decisions that they have made and strategies that they have implemented,' said a statement from SoS, who were at the forefront of a campaign to oust former owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett.

    'With key questions continuing to go unanswered, Spirit of Shankly suggests it is time for Tom Werner to be held accountable as chairman of Liverpool Football Club.

    'After all, the buck stops with him, not with those acting with his authority and not with people no longer at the club.'

    Friday's transfer deadline day passed without a replacement being found for striker Andy Carroll, who had been loaned to West Ham the previous day.

    Rodgers had wanted to bring in Fulham 29-year-old Clint Dempsey but FSG were reportedly unwilling to meet the Cottagers' inflated valuation, leaving the Reds boss with only two recognised forwards until at least January.

    In his letter Henry insisted the club's ambitions were not about 'cementing a mid-table place with expensive, short-term quick fixes that will only contribute for a couple of years'.

    That led to suggestions - dismissed by Rodgers - there was a difference of opinion between the owners and the manager.

    SoS believes greater backing should have been given to the Northern Irishman just three months into the job.

    'Following yet another summer where off-the-pitch activities at Liverpool Football Club have dominated the headlines, we once again find the club ownership attempting to explain away business decisions that have overshadowed footballing matters,' said the statement.

    Under pressure: Brendan Rodgers has had a tricky start to his Liverpool reign

    'Spirit of Shankly reiterates its stance that the position of manager at Liverpool Football Club should be supported with all of the resources at the club's disposal.

    'However, events of last Friday and the subsequent open letter from the club's principal owner indicate that almost two years into FSG's ownership of the club, this is not yet the case.

    'There remains no ownership presence on this side of the Atlantic. It is our opinion that this situation has led directly to the 'mistakes' alluded to in Mr Henry's open letter.

    'Should the club's absentee owners not wish to establish a full-time base in Liverpool it remains imperative that they appoint a chief executive of a calibre commensurate with the club's global status to act with the full authority of the owners in their absence.

    Deeply unpopular: Former owners George Gillett and Tom Hicks were forced out of the club, with the lack of new stadium among the reasons for fan ire

    'Without this it is far from sufficient for a club of Liverpool's stature to have a part-time chairman, based on another continent, with various other interests, and from whom little or nothing of consequence is seen or heard.

    'In case FSG need reminding, they are now employing their third manager, have already dispensed with the services of their director of football and now accusatory fingers are pointing in the direction of their managing director (Ian Ayre).'

    Liverpool declined to offer a response to the statement.

    I'm sure SoS will soon be ringing up Dalglish to explain why he pissed away 100m quid on players good enough to finish level with Fulham.

    A generation of fans have never seen Liverpool win a title. It's time they accept their role in the second-tier of English football. They are not part of the "big four" anymore. United, City, Chelsea, and Arsenal are miles ahead of them in so many aspects it's laughable.

  9. This is still on-going. Daniel O'Connell, who in all his time writing for BR has only two comments on his profile, one from "gerrybhoy Kelly" and one from 3names himself, is still being given a platform to spread absolute horseshit and hate about our club. His last two headlines include: Why Rangers Haven't Been Punished Enough & Rangers Football Club Already Making Trouble
