  1. Massive loss today, the result could ruin our plans for promotion incase we lose any more points this season. We only have 2 games left while other promotion contenders have an extra game. Bad times
  2. I used to have the Nyko charger, it was very good and was pleased with the battery performance & the rubber grip too. However one day it just died on me and I had to get a refund. So now I just use rechargeable AA batteries with no problem.
  3. So what are the chances we'll get a new SSX for this generation?
  4. Satisfied with the season so far, but a little annoyed that I'm dropping points at home.
  5. Satisfied with a win, 4-1 is probably a bit flattering though. Would be nice if my strikers actually starting scoring though.
  6. Gutted with the loss, good effort scoring 3 goals away from home but my goalkeeper let me down. Looks like I'll be fighting off relegation again. Along with that, in my other private team my 29 year old striker has decided to retire at the end of the season!
  7. I love Mountain Dew, say all you want about what's contained inside but heh I love it. So I am over the moon that it is officially coming back to the UK. Usually have had to get supply by drinking it when in the States, or buying expensive cans from a restaurant in Brighton.
  8. Didn't have a friendly today, but form of players seems decent enough for when the new season starts. For anyone who missed the latest Xpert News
  9. Chemical Brothers new album 'Further' is out in June. It's an 8 track album so you could be forgiven for thinking its too little. However they've released the track Escape Velocity onto Youtube which will be part of the album, and it's a 12 minute beast.
  10. When is the new season starting?
  11. +7 visible change. Worryingly none of my goalkeepers went up a bar visibly.
  12. Bit sad about the loss, could be my best chance of promotion for a few seasons. Yet again need to improve the strike force so hopefully the change report is nice to me. So it's the middle league for me for another season, I've lost count of how many seasons I've been in the middle league consecutively, must be coming to a league record
  13. Just informed the squad who will be in the starting 11 and who's on the bench; given them an extra day to mentally prepare for the match as a win will secure promotion! A big change from the last day of last season when I was fighting to survive relegation. Will be happy if I do get promoted considering I've been in the middle league for several seasons. However I would probably get relegated straight away in the top league:hmm:
  14. Damn the unbeaten run has ended. Key defender out for the rest of the season through injury, key midfielder got a straight red card meaning he too is out for the rest of the season. Suddenly our eyes are back on surviving from relegation instead of trying to get into a promotion spot.
  15. My win has helped blow the title and promotion race wide open in the middle league.
  16. Happy with the result today. Dominated the game with plenty of chances. Also, not sure how many people read the Xpert news so i'll quote it here, pretty important changes for next season.
  17. No retirements here, but that doesn't mean some players won't be forced out
  18. So I've been in that mood of going back to old games to fully complete them before I buy new ones during 2010. I can thankfully say I have 100% finished Twilight Princess now (all golden bugs, all heart pieces, all poes), which leads me to my next question. Which game do I fully complete next? Super Mario Galaxy (Do the second run), or Super Smash Bros Brawl (finish off all the challenges)? Ta
  19. Did some quick searching for you, lowest price I found was Gameplay at £29.99 http://shop.gameplay.co.uk/webstore/productpage.asp?productcode=NW5200 100 Days until release Same day as World Cup starts.
  20. So my signed copy of Ellie Goulding's album Lights arrived. Overall pretty pleased with the album (even if she signed it "Elli" and not "Ellie" ) Having listened to her songs for a quite while, it is interesting for me to able to compare to some of the demo editions for some of the tracks that I've been listening to for a while. I think she has done a very good job with Guns and Horses, Starry Eyed and Under the Sheets compared to her demos, the added layers and subtle changes really improve the song. The track This Love (Will be your Downfall) is probably my favourite song out of the crop that I didn't have a demo version of, I remember enjoying this song when I saw her live. I really adore the demo version of Wish I Stayed, but currently I do not enjoy the album version of it as much, think it has changed too much from the demo. Other mentions are I'll Hold My Breath which is quite catchy and a very sweet song called The Writer. Hopefully the other songs will grow on me, unfortunately I have yet to hear the iTunes exclusive track Lights. Currently I would rate the album a 7 out of 10, decent for a debut album but it could have been more. Also apart from the iTunes exclusive version, there are only 10 tracks which is too few I reckon.
  21. Didn't play today, but it's depressing seeing Silverdale at the bottom of the table. Hopefully the second part of the season will be better for me.
  22. Good choice Paj And I also thought of ABBA too when I first heard Shampain:love:
  23. The new Marina and the Diamonds arrived on my doorstep today, 2 days before release Upon first listen it feels like the first half of the album is absolutely lovely, but I will have to warm to the second half over time. Stand out songs of those I hadn't heard previously for me are Shampain and Are You Satisfied?. While songs I already know (Mowgli's Road, Obsessions and Hollywood) are still just as much enjoyable to listen since the first time I heard them:) Edit: Ok, I'm warming to the second half a lot now:D
  24. No games for Silverdale for 11 days now, hopefully the break should see the team peak up some form.
