  1. Season 3 was.....alright. Never got into season 4. Are they on 5 now?
  2. Six groups of five would be cosy, but would we have to do seedings or just use the positions from the last season or something?
  3. Is it more important than....world peace?
  4. Why is it that you can't leave any part of you touching any other part of you when you fall asleep, or you wake up with both those bits all sweaty and horrible. It's like your body literally overheats itself. Ridiculous.
  5. I see what you did there. And yes, it makes no difference to me. I'd forego a bit of dv to try it a new format. Dv is not the most important thing in the world after all.
  6. Whatever we do, it'll only be for one season, and crapper teams will only miss out on two or three games of dv. I'm happy with that.
  7. Well the money doesn't come directly from your salary, it comes from the employers. They are paying the recruiters to find you. Possibly that finders fee may have ended up in my salary if we hadn't used the middle man, but i doubt it.
  8. I used Monster. I put my cv on there just to see what would happen, and had about 6 calls from various recruitment agencies within 48 hours. That was just to put me on their books, but still. Then i got a job interview within a week, which led to a call back, and then I got the job. I barely even lifted a finger! The recruitment agencies did it all for me. They even negotiated a higher salary for me because it was in their interests (they get a percentage of my first year salary).
  9. I wouldn't want to face me either. I'm happy with whatever everyone else wants.
  10. This thread makes me sad. If only the job market was like in that advert when that dude goes round handing out 'lovely jobs'.
  11. The headline for this BBC article is awesome: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-24600517 They could have worded it any way they wanted, and they went for that!
  12. Hmmm, that would go against my other football philosophy though; no cheating, no fouling. A football team should not have to resort to underhand tactics to win.
  13. Bah, no-one reminded me, AND YET I DID IT ANYWAY.
  14. Pah! I was in the middle league last season and i only barely got relegated. What are these defenders of which you speak? You mean my 'rear strikers'? They aren't great, but they're not awful. Granted they only scored 1 goal between them last season, but they got 11 assists.
  15. Well i suppose the reason why they enforce these things are that they (the Government) are under pressure to reduce the road death statistics, and that is the easiest way of doing it. The best way would be to limit all road vehicles to <40mph, but thats never going to happen.
  16. I did wonder if it might have TB, but the only way to check is to look inside the hankerchief after a coughing fit (as every period drama has taught us), so i could not tell.
  17. I'm pretty happy with my squad at the moment. Nearly everyone at 10DV or higher, with only Nyo being below where he should be (naughty Nyo). Dongmo is retiring and i'm not sure i'm keeping Bob Strikes Again. I might try and find another youth striker to replace him.
  18. That sort of kick was always my favourite to do rather than head the ball. Let it drop behind you but stick out a leg and hopefully heel it back over your head. Looks awesome when it works... I think a team goal looks very good when it's like the above, but i don't like it when people say its a good team goal just because they strung together however many passes. Basically, my metric is; if you took the goal off the end, would it still look good? If you look at Argentina's goal in 2006 where they had 25 passes before they scored, it is regarded as one of the best team goals. However, if you remove the goal at the end (say they miss) you would say it is just a boring passing game with nothing on the end of it. If you showed someone that Wilshere move, (say he missed the shot at the end) they would still say it was an incredible bit of football. TL;DR I think that a good team goal shouldn't just be based on the number of passes leading up to it.
  19. Not sure if this is good or bad. I saw my first ever wild badger today. That's good! But it was running madly across campus out in the open during daytime, which probably means there was something wrong with it. That's bad...
  20. Can we do friendlies for Tuesday then? Does anyone want one?
  21. When i had more time, i spent hours on that website too. Very addictive.
