There's no way we'll go 36 games undefeated. I doubt we'll lose a home game but on the road we will lose at some point.

How do you have access to pre order numbers in the US or North America?
You say "the real fun will start when the consoles are released and Xbox may well sell as many consoles as the Playstation 4. I doubt it but its possible"
No the real fun starts when gamers start playing games on the new consoles and dont get their kinckers in a twist about sales numbers.
Yeah, its "all about the games", I've heard that one a million times, lol. The business aspect of it is of great interest to some but I can understand if that side of things bores others.

Edge has done an MS with a full 180...
No one expected this from Edge after how much they have been bigging up the PS4.
Yeah, quite a turnaround but strange how Microsoft fans believe that article but dismiss any pro-Sony article from Edge, lol. Reminds me of Rangers fans who dislike the Daily Record because they are apparently anti-Rangers but then retweet links to their articles if its something they agree with.
The Xbox has definitely won the pre-order battle from August 23 - October 21st in the USA though with 175k orders compared to Sony's 125k but this can be attributed to Playstation buyers knowing what they were buying and getting their orders in earlier. As it stands the Playstation has 725k orders in total compared to Xbox's 525k. Of course, the real fun will start when the consoles are released and Xbox may well sell as many consoles as the Playstation 4. I doubt it but its possible. (we also have to remember that the USA is typically Xbox territory so it will be interesting to get the figures for Europe and Japan)

There's a video doing the rounds on Twitter of Ajax fans walking through Glasgow singing some songs.
I don't think they like the Pope, lol.

Nah, keep Gibraltar because it pisses off Spain and makes Argentina call the Spanish hypocrites because they won't back them up over ownership of the Falklands.
Seriously though, I'm quite intrigued as to how they'll get on at the qualifiers for the European Championships. They've got a few English players in their team who play non-league footy, lol.

I would be against an all British team but would support the re-introduction of the 3 foreigner rule. Maybe 5.
(With Brits being considered as non-foreigners, of course)

1) Red Dead Redemption
2) Modern Warfare 2
3) GTA V
4) Saints Row 2
5) Broken Sword 4
The first 2 Resi Evil games (Especially the second) were one off's.
No other Resi came IMO has come close.
Resident Evil Code Veronica was good. (which was supposed to be Resident Evil 3 and Nemesis was supposed to be the add-on)
But yeah, the first two are by far the best.
-
Great goal but woman's football is still dire.
Its getting way more coverage than it deserves in the media at present.
-
I doubt Man Utd will qualify for the Champions League which would not go down well with the fans, especially if City qualify.
-
Laudrup, Gazza and Albertz.
Arteta, the De Boers and Gio were sore one's also but not on the level of the three above.
Gattuso? He wasn't really that good when he was at Rangers.
ps, I remember reading an article that the one season contract extension Laudrup eventually signed made him the second highest paid player in the world behind Jay Jay Okocha at PSG. Not sure if that's true but wasn't he on £55k or something?....

Not like the SNP to only protect their own whilst disrespecting everyone else is it?.........
-
He was having problems in the hotel room before the game and the team doctors were called in. God knows what went on, don't think anything near the truth ever came out. Nerves was suggested, but who knows.
Heard this one a few times but not sure if its accurate. I doubt it true, it sounds quite outrageous....

Apparently Ronaldo was incredibly unwell on the day of the 98 world cup final.
Remember he wasn't on the teamsheet but at the very last minute ended up in the squad?
-
Ukraine to beat France. And Iceland and Greece to qualify over two games with the second game away. You'll get good odds on that threesome.
20.8/1 at William Hill.
Throw Portugal in there and its 32/1
Might take that bet..
-
Portugal v Sweden
France v Ukraine
Greece v Romania
Iceland v Croatia

I'm adding Lombardo to that list
Conte, Deschamps, Ferrara, Boksic, Vieri.......
.....and Sergio Porrini, lol.

Takes me back to the Sunday morning's when Football Italia was on Channel 4...
Vialli, Ravaneli, Del Pierro, Di Livio, Montero, Zidane, Trezeguet, Nedved, Buffon, Davids, Thuram and Co were at Juventus whilst Paul Ince was rocking an Inter Milan jersey.....
Italian footy has gone right downhill these days.

Nicky Law's goal had to be the pick of the bunch. It was obviously a cross, but still.
Quite funny when Mohsni celebrated his goal like a hard-man and then got his foot stuck in the net as he went to walk away, lol.
-
The Easdales didn't say much when they finally spoke...
I have no opinion on them either way but if its true they don't want King to join the board then I'd like to know their alternative plan given they don't have the funds to invest whereas King is minted.
-
Talk of Paul Di Resta not having a drive next season. He'd be a huge loss to Formula 1 although I expect he'd eventually get another drive. His problem is sponsorship.
Bugs me that the best drivers can lose their seat because of this.
-
It would be incredibly brave to do the right thing and sack Moyes. The length of contract he is on would prove quite costly.
-
Neigh chance of them falling at the first hurdle.
They'll not be there furlong.
-
We'll see how good this Belgium team really is next year. They just might be your dark horses.
I think they'll get horsed out in the group stage...
-
Can't write off the Netherlands.
Or England.
(I think Germany will win it though.)
