    It's not telly - and the Telegraph didn't do a similar exercise with ten people from any walk of life - it's irrelevant. The reporting is justified on the basis that there's a bloke employed by the Football Association - at the very top of team management - who is offering advice on how to circumvent its very own rules. Is it not in the public interest? Clearly it doesn't stop with this idiot either - Gill had sufficient leave of his senses to employ him.

    One of life's great philosophical quandaries. In the circumstances of Allardyce, he knew the rules - it went through at least one exploratory meeting and he had many opportunities to back out of it. He was willing to go through with the deals. This man is at the top of the chain in English football, the top job - pinnacle of English football's excellence (even if you agree with that description or his appointment or not - it's the truth) - he knew better, and with all the warning signs in place - he still went for it.

    The structure of the investigation took the format of two meetings, if the individual was uncomfortable with the premise and the tone of the first encounter, then they should have not engaged in the second much longer meeting. Reading the transcripts it appears that there was no encouragement, just pure greed for more money. They've been caught.

    Alan Hill says Saunders made it up. Part of his 'routine' I suspect.

    I remember the circlejerk with Destiny, r/gaming reads like it's full of 14-17 year-olds and Bungie must have read the lot as they bent over big time to accommodate their 'community'. It became a mess run by kids. Love boardgames, favourites are Forbidden Island, Pathfinder ACG, D-Day Dice, Shoot Out Ice Hockey (which is more a dice and chart game), and Pandemic. I don't have a lot of opportunity for group play so I generally play co-ops or solitaire games, but I'm trying to get my eldest into Pathfinder - he likes RNG loot games/roguelikes. I have a lot of online resources for boardgames, I'll pass them on if you want.

    Glad you're enjoying it - the premise was astounding, the delivered product less so. There's been a lot of activity in r/gaming regarding Steam refunding players, I suppose providing a game with no missions, growth as a character, or a story means people get bored pretty easy. What little objectives there are leave the player underwhelmed. Ending spoiler.

    This is in a interesting game concept, I'm not going to say anything about what Moirai is and please don't look it up; the less you know going into this the better. The game plays for only a few minutes - if you're anything like me, the realisation at the end of the game is surprising. Moirai. http://store.steampowered.com/app/496920/

    I want to pick up Crusader Kings 2 and DLC or HoI3, but I've got Win10 so I'm unsure of compatibility.

    Paradox sale on Steam at the moment - up to 80% off on some titles. Not connected to the above, but thoroughly enjoying playing Wolfenstein: The New Order (2014), picked it up cheap from a carboot. Fantastic acting and story recommended if you haven't played it yet. - and id know how to create a theme tune...

    We'll ignore human trafficking across Europe and the Americas. Whether we agree with his take on history or not, he has a choice and has given a principled stance, challenging the honour. Incidentally, I believe we should have civic awards and honours that aren't connected to the 'Empire' - it's all a bit stuffy, dated, and Faragesque.

    From 2009. I think that's old policy.
  19. Matt
    I don't think that is correct. http://www.owtb.co.uk/index.php/topic/48710-a-soleless-football-club/?p=852256 http://www.ppluk.com/I-Play-Music/Businesses/

    A lot of games are played at Leigh Sports Village along with MUFC U23.

    ...Jerome Wright off top of my head, there must be a few more from the youth.

    He's correct. His raking diagonals are a joy to behold, very comfortable on the ball - a class above in the Evostik Prem and deserved to step up again to prove himself. Season or so later he came back and played for the Spirites at BP in the FA Cup, again, played very well albeit against a Conference North side that was in disarray at the time. I haven't seen him regularly at L1 level enough to say that's where he belongs, I'd have him back in a flash.
  23. Matt
    Yup, without the forelock pulling.
  24. Matt
    I think the two can be the same thing.

    That is why they need guidance.
