MMU isn't that high overall, but probably quite high if you just looked at English alone, although I'm not sure that list exists.

Ahh right, this would be why. Cheers

Exceptional sig.

It's quite mad to think on the 15th January 2003 Swansea were 4 points adrift at the bottom of the football league. Less than 10 years later they just beat the European champions away from home.

Been searching for a specific gif I saw a while ago for ages now. May just have to re-create it myself. It'll give me something to do anyway.

I was hoping someone would say yes then I'd be like lol why do you believe that shit?

Girl asked me that today, I just made one up. I said stag.

Went to create a budget chart and just started at the page blank for 5 minutes.

I'm shit with Excel. Fucking noob.

@Kuled: You're so biased I can't take that compliment seriously.

@Bogs: I like how the first thing that came to your mind is Harry Potter. I would have told her mine was a killer whale.

There's loads of help online for Excel, you should be able to find the answers you need. Is it stuff like formulas you struggle with or just the general cell/table formatting?

What? I said stag since my nationalism automatically kicked in and I remembered there's a golden stag festival in Romania.

I'm going to have a look now.

I had a wanker of an IT teacher through school so pretty much ignored him and just taught myself, he pissed me off after ane xcel lesson so I've never gone back to it.

After an hour lecture from my parents about saving money and going out less, I've finally been given the £351 I needed and Zante is on motherfucker!!

Hate that shit.

On a serious note, next pay packet I am budgeting like a cunt, I want my only outgoings to be is gym, football which is £3.50 a week and £6 a week at college.

I'll probably be spending £75 a month and ideally saving around £290 - £300

Fuck, got an interview tomorrow and haven't done any research at all, gonna have to try and bluff my way through it

Then again, it is only Spar, so not like I need extensive company details stored in my head.

I researched Orange and they asked me nothing.

I didn't want my research going to waste so I just managed to squeeze shit in amongst the interview.

I have not, I'm going to get it next time I go out. I know kind of the jist of the story and ending though but not in detail.

Lupin teaches Harry about Patronus' in the 3rd book so he can defend himself from the Dementors that were attacking him.

Harry then teaches it to other students in the 5th book when he is the "leader" of the DA.

You probably don't care but when Harry Potter is mentioned I have to comment

I actually think football scouts should use FIFA as a kind of primary database for scouting out players.

If you think about it. FUT especially has a massive database of the majority of better football leagues of the world. And looking at the overalls are fairly accurate. They can also see the finer details for say they were looking for a fast striker or a tall CB. They could also look at how many IF cards they have as a showing of the outstanding performances they have given. E.g. mirallas had like 2/3 IFs last year

Just done a great deal on career mode

Hazard wanted to leave Chelsea so I bid £13m + Julian Draxler which got accepted (I'm Forest)

Hazards wage demands were 130k and most I could offer was 60k so I tried my luck and offered him 60

He accepted and i now have Hazard

Same with Football Manager.

Babacar and Henri Saivet would be world beaters by now!

Bizzarre statement.

For a start I think Football Manager would absolutely piss the fuck on a video game made by EA who take no care to putting fine detail into players other than the top 5 major European leagues.

Of course they're accurate Ed, they study them all year round to determine the, and also FUT is bullshit, if you want a fast CB John Terry seems to be perfect, he managed to outpace Walcott everytime when I played FUT.

It would be a mockery if scouts used video games at in any way shape of form in football.

My 2 cents.

I haven't touched my Xbox in 2 and a half months


Feels good man
