  1. Amazing goal!
  2. Probably got a bit too big for their own good whilst other chains improved. I've seen that they still have lots of completed stores they've acquired but haven't actually moved in to and their rapid Express expansions aren't always viable in some areas as they try to compete to heavily with others practically on the doorstep. In a place called Summertown in Oxford; we have a Tesco, Sainsburys, M&S and Co-Op all within a 200 yard space. It's just mental but if Tesco actually moved half a mile up the road near a prime housing area; they could have made a killing instead of trying to drive others into the ground including themselves. Also their product range is getting a bit too mainstream, predictable and lackluster whilst the likes of Aldi and Lidl seem to be coming in with more original goods more ideally priced. Tesco need a range refresh and overhaul and need to get their prices competitive again. In the last couple of years; they've taken the market and people for granted and perhaps have been far too cocky and arrogant. Others like Morrisons are even catching up by driving prices down. Christmas is gonna be a crucial time and I think they'll struggle as it's not enough time to dramatically turn the tide.
  3. How the mighty have fallen! Once the biggest High Street shopping chain who dominated the supermarket space whilst moving into other ventures such as mobile and other electronics; now their profits have dropped to 47%. they've been overtaken by ASDA in terms of value and 18 executives have been suspended pending an investigation into false accounting after they published some inflated profit projections that were about £250,000,000 off the mark. They were one of the most powerful companies in the country - the Google of shops and nobody could have foreseen even the slightest drop in performance. They made some massive and aggressive expansion strides with smaller stores in locations that put several independent businesses out of business and you could only see them growing and growing further. Now everything seems to be on the ropes Ouch! They probably need to stop expanding and focus more on their existing business and get a grip back on the market.
  4. That Ian Brady must have been caged for a fair few decades albeit in a maximum security hospital. Quite a few now serving whole life sentences without the possibility of parole.
  5. Was shocked to see this unfolding yesterday. Terrible events and my thoughts are with everyone affected especially the family of deceased soldier.
  6. Really bizarre decision to release him at 78 years old with probably no home or family. He served 18 years on top of a 30 year stretch and despite this; I just can't see how he could cope with life on the outside especially with today's media shit storms. He's been assessed and doesn't represent an immediate threat hence his release by the parole board and will probably be under the guidance of probation for the rest of his life but with all the controversy surrounding the release and the publicity it has generated; he very well may find himself back inside on recommendation because of how unproductive releasing him now is particularly at this time.
  7. Game modes confirmed Team Deathmatch Kill Confirmed Free For All Domination Hardpoint Capture The Flag Search & Destroy Search & Rescue Uplink Momentum Gun Game Infected
  8. 3-0 curtains.
  9. 2-0 Madrid. Could be an uncomfortable night for Liverpool..
  10. 1-0 Ronaldo. CL was mental yesterday! Bayern beating Roma 7-1 away was insane. Tonnes of goals elsewhere too. Even Oxford bloody won (not in CL obviously)
  11. I'm about halfway through Isolation now and it's just incredible. The atmosphere is gripping, the visuals are staggering and the tension is unbelievable. I spent 25 minutes hiding under a table biding my time just to go to a door 10 yards away! The save points are scattered around the ship so getting to one feels like a massive achievement and makes you play really cautiously. Haven't experienced this much fear and horror since the early Resident Evil games.
  12. I actually considered restarting numerous times after making a few mistakes and bad choices but I decided to just play honestly and see where it goes. I'm still alive and so is my team 34 hours in
  13. Taarabbt posted this today <---------------OWNED!
  14. Ooooh that's interesting! I did Highpool first on my playthrough but the AG centre first really changes parts of the game apparently.
  15. Tragic http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/29689747
  16. I have a confession; I also got mine from G2A a few days after release for £13.79 I don't normally use sites like that but it was all legit thankfully! Have you reached Highpool yet?
  17. Wow, Amazing deal Phil! It's a really addicting and absorbing game. I am only halfway through at 34 hours or so and have really had to tear myself away to have a break from it!
  18. Holy sheet; what a finish at Loftus Road
  19. The game really does look amazing
  20. I swear to god Sunderland were letting in those goals yesterday. Players should refund the fans their expenses for the 750 mile round trip and give the rest of their wages to charity. Looked a disgusting performance.
  21. 1. Deus Ex (PC) 2. Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64) 3. Metal Gear Solid (PS1) 4. Goldeneye (N64) 5. Half Life (PC) 6. Black Ops (360) 7. GTA San Andreas (PS2) 8. Pro Evolution Soccer 5 (PS2) 9. Super Mario 64 (N64) 10. The Last of Us (PS4)
  22. Just epic on another level. Almost speechless. Those lyrics and the live performance itself is just streets ahead of any thing I've ever heard. I can see why this was number 1 for 178 weeks straight
