Will have to take a look Tom @LordBaguette as that's great praise. @Jason and @JsinOwl have had a dabble as Tommy has mentioned and I think they're happy with it too. The only thing i'm a little concerned about is how the hack and slash technique works. However, thats mainly down to me not loving a lot of button mash sword games which I don't think this one is from the face of it. I'll get it installed and we can try some over the next week if we find one evening.

Maybe in an hour or two if a window of time allows around playing with the kids. Whats your window and i'll shoot a message out into discord to see if anyone is about.

Looks half decent for an alpha. Reminds me of CoD Zombies a little. Not sure if thats a good or bad thing.

Can I ask if we can do something like 20 (or 30 max) minutes for Practice on each of the races this week and see how we get on? I'm thinking it'll help us get more races in and likely keep it pretty even as it won't give too much time for more considered drivers to get their eye in! We should try and find more time between each Tuesday then if people want more time on the tracks and cars. We could then do 3 races minimum perhaps?

Last week was absolutely awesome racing. Having 9 of us in the race definitely add to some more battles throughout the races and great to see new people giving GT Sport a go too. The first race was a blinder foe me personally, perhaps the best it's ever been. I'm getting seriously fast one lap times in practice and sometimes in Qualy, so transforming that into consistent performances is the key part. The first 4 lap race started miserably because after getting the 2nd fastest time in practice, I was back down in 5th after a few scratchy Qualifying laps. However, the road opened for me and I believe Matty @Misneach_ for once as he slowly started to get into the race. A quick battle between him and Mike @Mikepjbell saw Matty lose track position and with Mike hitting the fast chicane barrier full on to lose places on the first lap. @Greboth and @JBR-Kiwi as per usual were battling quite hard for first spot and because I was around only 2 seconds behind it kept me with a fighting chance. On the last lap Greebs and Kiwi went hard into the chicane with Kiwi coming off worse, enough for me to slip past him into second just behind Greebs. I was so happy with that race and reminded I can actually get some consistency. The second race was a killer. We put BoP off so Paul @slamminbones could join us with a Gr.2 car when it was a Gr.3 race which actually made for some challenging and unpredicatable racing. Kiwi had the power with Greebs being left for dead on straights. Mike battled back and forth with Greebs initially, and stuck close by staying ahead of @phil bottle at the same time. A huge long lap saw lower down @jordie1892 do extremely well at navigating himself into the top of the next pack, with myself close behind followed by Harold @Spacedeck . I eentually past Jordie although it took many corners, for us to the both get close again for another battle. We took a corner far too fast and all of a sudden Harold sneaked past, only to unfortunately lose it on the next corner. I feel like if he could've held that corner he would've went on to beat us. An unfortunate mispick of tyres for Mike ended up meaning he had to pit twice which left him 2 seconds behind Phil on the last lap which got a bit tasty until Mike couldn't hold one of the corners. Greebs for all the effort just couldn't close the gap enough on the corners on Kiwi who took a great win when tyres were wearing extremely thin. Super to see @TonyAE86 be around as well Tom @LordBaguette initially, although sounds like he need to sort his controller out! GGFG everyone!

Good to hear the shooting isn't all that bad. I got it for Crimbo so will try and find a few hours to myself to try and get into it. Hopefully the PS5 with the latest patches will sort the game out so its playable and fun at the same time.

You both still around after Christmas @Baabcat and @Venom ? Been meaning to get on once the dust settles a little bit so might be available to raid later today.

I loved this film so watched it twice already. Outside watching Elf and Die Hard 1, 2 and 3 yet again because why the hell not, its been difficult to find any movies of late. Started to watch the new Netflix space film with George Clooney in it last night but I was shattered so will finish over the next few days.

Starting to worry that we could lose Mowbray as our manager after misfiring in the last half a dozen games. We're dominating over teams, but struggling to break teams down. They get one chance and they take. Unfortunately too many fans want instant success but I don't think we're a club that can afford that so we should live in the real world that its a journey in getting back to where we'd like to be. Bradley Dack was back yesterday, as were a few returning players after injury but we need a good run to restore some faith in some fickle Blackburn fans minds that they think any other manager we could afford can do better.

I dont think there is one so I'll set one up Paul @slamminbones now. If anyone wants in, just let us know here initially and we'll add over time.

My nephew just picked up a gaming PC from Santa this year so i'll be keeping an eye for maybe 1 or 2 games for him on offer. Apparently he's been asked to get into Rust which I already said some of the people here recommended!

Dunno about that @Plumbers Crack Dave, I found that Christmas started in late September when George decided to tell us about how he felt Last Christmas 😎🤣

Will have to take a look at this when I can, thanks @Dan94 . I still haven't upgraded from my Samsung S9. I should've by now but every phone is an extra tenner a month, which I just think isn't worth it when my phone still works really well. Anyone got one the bigger phones with a stylus? I'm trying to work out if its a good idea to look into one of them but don't know many advantages to the ones with that.

@Spacedeck heard you got one of those Lynx Africa sets...really wish I got one of them because I think they are 25 year anniversary ones - check the top left of the box for the best fact of the lot #WhenBlackburnWereTopOfTheWorld 😎

Thought it was easier separating it out so people can share pics and stories on what they got up to. And just a heads up, don't feel like you're 'flexing' yourself off, I never think any of you guys and girls do that so share as much as you like. Might give more ideas to birthdays and other Feel Good presents we could do! 😍😎

No worries everyone. I didn't think even I would struggle for time and other things around this Christmas week but here we are! Kind of helps the fact you guys could see who won what before me as it was automatically done by the system. Well done to @Spacedeck , @Plumbers Crack and @Misneach_ getting the remaining presents from the Big FGFGF Xmas Giveaway. Hopefully, like @phil bottle says above, it gave many of you something to look at, get behind for a bit of fun and joy as that was the only intention because it was only for existing FGers. Sorry if you didn't win, if we can push through into 2021 to make it a better year (and our lives allow us to be generous in an unstable world to donate a few quid every so often) we can try and do some more throughout the year if this helps everybody? Also, if you have more ideas of things to link other giveaways too then you know i'm all ears to give it a bash if we can make it work. GGFG everybody ❤️

Merry Christmas FGers! I really hope you all have a wonderful day, whatever you end up doing. We're always here no matter the day so share the love, feelings and good times with everyone. No one here should ever feel alone when you have all of the lovely people here! PMs, mobile, and anything else to get in contact are always open if they are ever needed ❤️ Stay safe and healthy and have a cracking day folks! GGFG

Well at least I don't have to put up an update to who won the 21st December now! Of course Harold, our pleasure 😎

Happy birthday Rob @The3rdWalker ! Hope you have a great day buddy 👍🍺😎

I've stumbled across this podcast because of some ex-players making a few and they've started to make a little noise on Twitter. They are a really good listen whilst you're doing other stuff. Some footballers talking very openly and honestly on how things went for them. Its done really well as its just like they're in the pub, sharing funny stories with their best mates. A couple of ex-pros present it. One (Chris Brown) played 42 games for us (Blackburn) and scored no goals. As a striker. But they're great how they talk about stuff. Anyone that loves football should give some a watch. Ben Marshall below should've been in the Premiership, even now. Hes only 29 still but hes quit professional football. A real insight to how it can be for many footballers. Its not the dream that we all think sometimes. This Mark Crossley one is great too as it has some fantastic stories about Brian Clough.

Well I hope they've had some form of immunity when saying their peace. Clearly anyone that was in charge of the release would've took any of the other options we've all spoken about rather than to just release it in the wild to all platforms like they did. After all of this though, I think we could easily come back here in a year's time and be praising them for putting stuff right. Similar to how @Greboth mentioned how No Mans Sky sorted their shit out. Although that took a few years to do and also that time was needed for everyone to forget the main man Sean Murray flat out lied to everybody about MP and other things such like.

This one by a mile @slamminbones . When you're on too if you save up some cash, the other guys can help let you know which ones to buy and get hold of. I actually think tonight could be a good one considering there's a number of new people turning up. Definitely great to see more people get involved in other FG game nights.

No one likes to see Leeds lose like that do they? 😎 Tbh, I can't deny they do play fantastically well in terms of just giving it a go regardless of the opposition which I respect a lot. Its funny how fickle fans and journalism can be. Ole's clearly not the one to take you forward if you end up 2 points off top. Then again, Mourinho won you trophies and they still weren't happy with that....
