Really good interview about a difficult and clearly personally distressing topic. Just a shame he had to be out of his comfort zone to give the interview before the papers printed whatever they wanted. Good to hear he got to the point were he took the action himself as others could so easily carried on that slide, and fair play to Everton keeping it quiet and helping him get the help he needed, can’t help think some other premier league clubs would have cut him loose to get it done on his own. Hope to see him bounce back in a positive fashion, whatever that maybe whether it’s on the field or coming away for it to help others. Also a big amount of praise needs to go to Gary Neville for doing the interview and going with the discussion when it clearly went where he wasn’t expecting and not forcing Dele with anything. I don’t like the term of ‘new media’ but a platform like this, which is a lot more popular with sports people of all types in the US, is clearly where players feel more comfortable discussing these issues so hope we get more of them in the UK.

Boo hiss at the evil Saturday the 26th voters, probably those Cowbots and Eagles fans !!

Cool, ill send you an invite for the whatsapp group

Put me down as well @Antpool84 I imagine I will just be propping you all up but I will give it a go 🙂

Hi Ally, i will add you into the whatsapp group for this, the links are in there too. Glad tonhave you on board 😁😁

I think as with a lot of big developers, they lost sight of the core fan base. They are the fans you want to keep on side at all times because without them your game would not exist and won't exist in the future. They have tried multiple times now to capture audiences of COD, fornite etc by bringing in their stupid battle royale modes on one hand or increasing the map & player number sizes exponentially. But these are things the fan base never asked for or wanted. In fact the thing that really put me off Dice / EA this time around was blaming other games and developers, in fact they even blamed Covid. If I remember rightly Halo was blamed because the two games launched around the same time and Halo was incredibly polished while Battlefield wasn't, I mean well fekkin release a polished game then instead of the turd they did release. That said the real issue was the direction they went, it had nothing to do with what was going on in the world, they again tried to do something that no one wanted all because they keep seeing green dollar signs (pushed by EA). All most battlefield players ever wanted was more of the same, more explosions, more destruction etc etc and instead we got a couple of tornados that you could fly around with your wingsuit..... Feel like fortnight much?

Harry Kane — Think he should stay, but if he's refusing to sign a new deal J. Lewis has said they got to get him sold. Unfortunately Levy is terrible at getting players out the door. Just look at how much garbage we've still got hanging around in the dressing room. Get Hojbjerg gone, get Kane gone, get Sanchez gone, and let's get some proper players in before everyone runs to Saudi!

Harry Kane saga is annoying, but hey ho that's the usual Tottenham transfer window. Looks like he's off but if so I hope this is ASAP. The women's World Cup is in full swing now. I drew South Korea in my work sweepstake and they play Columbia tomorrow 🙂

Shame they can't delete their toxic work environment and sex pest management as easily 🤔

These are fairly new, do you remember Joanna’s guide back in the day? A big written PDF thing? It’s like that but it’s an add on with an arrow in the screen etc

My first foray into music when me and r kid got a record player was some donations from my uncle who had a music room so I got things such as Johnny kid and the pirates to Billy fury and even the chipmunks and Sarah brightman and hot gossip ..starship trooper. My first bought record was stand and deliver so my teenage years was the 80's so basically the best time for music😉. However after going throug the start of dance and techno I can listen to anything depending on mood or the amount of alcohol I've consumed even the stuff like the black veil brides and falling in reverse I have to put up with from the wife.

In my very early years I was tortured by my mothers taste in pop that was abba, cliff richard, Elton John and boyzone. Fortunately my taste in my teenage years fell more in line with a particular forum plumber, getting into newer rock like oasis, blur, foo fighters, queens of the stage, offspring and muse, as well as a mix from other genres from reel big fish and less than jake, to eminem and dr dre and prodigy and fat boy slim. Now it’s still pretty much rooted in rock music listening to new and older stuff from ACDC, led zeppelin, guns and roses to royal blood and kasabian, but most days rather than anything in particular I end up listening to whatever station is on the site radio whether that’s kisstory, absolute radio or planet rock.

So I have ordered this today, imagine it will turn up next week. As it is my first racing game for a long time I am not sure if I will get on with it, I had gone off them somewhat (maybe I got burnt out by being rammed off race tracks in GTA years ago! 😄 ) But yeah I will jump on with you guys in the coming weeks ^_^

For the stick drift reason I am umming and arring over picking one up when a controller fails. Currently I have 3 standard ones, one of which one of the triggers is broke in that it no longer has the resistance to it (button still works) so it will be fine if the kids want to play lego say as they get older. Then 2 that I switch between when batteries are on their way out. I did have the Victrix Pro as well, I liked the idea of having the sticks placed like an xbox controller but in the end I didn't get on with it and a friend had it off me (albeit at a fair loss as there isn't much of a market for selling them on).

Might have to re download this as it's been quite some time since I last played.
