    Luseth got a reaction from GazzaGarratt in Football (Played with Feet)   
    I don't think you can fault him for this and I don't think this is just solely about the state and position Blackburn are in currently. If you look at Eustace's career since 2009 with the exception of a short stint at QPR he has been based within the Midlands, in fact his son play's at the same football club as a friend's son in Birmingham. I think this is a decision being made partially around the time he spends with his family, Blackburn is a fair way to travel if your home is near to Birmingham and I suspect results in him spending a lot of time away from them. The fact that they have lived around here for so long makes it much more difficult to up and move for work which a lot of managers, footballers etc often do. Blackburn have not had the fantast
     
    He will also understand now that this sport is a results business and in all likelihood next season he will be out the door if the team does not progress (which on the current budget they have is going to be difficult to achieve), he now has an alternative option where if they get relegated it's not the end of the world because the hope was to stop up this season. Meaning next season is his with a team fully capable of competing for a promotion place increasing the length his current working trajectory. Couple that with being able to negotiate a contract with a decent pay off should he be let go during next season then as well.

    Wow, that's a huge disappointment! It's frustrating when expectations don’t meet the reality, especially for a dedicated fanbase. Hopefully, Sports Interactive takes this feedback seriously and puts more effort into aligning with what players actually want. Fingers crossed they course-correct for the next edition!

    I would say it's a shame but it's a bit like Fifa in that it does not really change all that much so missing out a year won't matter too much. I can only think they have spent time actually trying to implement something and it has yet to work and in turn it has held up the rest of the project.

    Stats updated again this weeK, some things I picked up as well putting them in this week -
     
    - Next week will see us hit the number of matches for a Championship season (we need 7 more games). We currently sit on 72 points. In all liklihood we would only need 1 win of those 7 for a play off spot, winning all 7 would see us in most seasons nick an automatic space! Considering how crap we tend to start the new fifa games that to me is not a bad return at all!
     
    - @Macca89 despite playing only 5 games last week picked up 3 MOM's and sit's top of the assists with 30 showing he's probably the biggest team player of FG!
     
    - @Jamesmade a point of proving me wrong on assists last week by getting 6 (being his current best since I started the stats!) This also moves him into third O/A.
     
    - @Antpool84 Is the only person not to have missed a match in 2025 featuring in 44 games! (Note that I don't have the results of the first week hence the difference between his appearances and the points tally above).

    Had a couple of sessions now, now that I sort of know what I'm doing it's actually become quite good fun. You can tell there are a lot of new players, people don't understand the supplies in a match and such.
     
    There are a few as mentioned before from my battlefield group up for giving it a go and they joined me Saturday just gone and we had good fun with it. I am very skeptical about letting others drive now though as I have died a few times just because people can't stay on the road! There are also some wingebags in some of the lobbies, I drove some supplies to a forward base the other day and because I did not stop to pick someone up (the truck was full mind) he tried to vote to kick me, he also began a vote to kick someone only minutes later in the same base I was gathering supplies for de spawning vehicles then proceeded to try and run to the forward bases 😄
     
    I had some great gun fights, fighting in the streets at the port was great and people could really hole up in some of the buildings, where some games you would just drive a vehicle in i.e. battlefield and knock it all down or it would be a run and slide into a building. Here it just felt like a warzone, well calculated attacks and making the most of cover and such.
     
    Playing it on your own strikes me as less fun unless you are in a decent lobby, but working as a squad, moving up and flanking enemies and such together it can be great when it works. We snuck up on a sniper on a cliff the other evening after he picked 1 or 2 of our guys off and my friend bayonetted him which was quite entertaining.
     
    It will definately get more game time from us I think.

    I've recommended the post with the stats in it so it'll be at the top of every page as a quick link for anyone looking. Thanks for updating Matt @Luseth and yes, it was another great night of football for us!
     
    Great to see George AKA Mulletov @G_dub52 back in action...and bagging an incredible hatrick on his debut for this game, all with D-Pad too!! 🤯

    Luseth got a reaction from GazzaGarratt in Marvel Rivals - Favourite Characters   
    I had a think after last night's session, we had a few good games, especially when we all switched to 3 tanks / 3 healers to turn around what was looking like a loss.
     
    Putting a bit of thought into my characters I generally begin games with one of my preferred but there are often times I feel the need to switch depending on how things are playing out -
     
    - If the team is quite aggressive and pushing as a group then Squirrel Girl is great. Her attack can hit a few at the same time and you can launch it a fair way, great for dealing with some awkward healers (being protected by effective tanks).
    - Against flyers she does not do so well so I tend to switch to Scarlet Witch here, I don't have to worry so much about spiderman, iron man or storm flying around then as the attack hits anyway so they can't really escape.
    - On maps where there are plenty of flanking options, Penni is fantastic. Being able to select places to put mines or the mine dispenser can kill off flanks before they even happen!
     - I used star lord a bit last night too, he is quite effective against your Scarlet Witches & Moon Knights. If you can get right up against them, unload a clip into them and follow up with his L1 and they can't hit you back and tend to go down pretty quick.
    - My healer tends to be Cloak and dagger though I would like to get used to using Rocket a bit more with his little damage booster thing.
     
    I am yet to find a melee DPS I like but they seem to have gained a bit of popularity recently.

    Sorry for the delay in updating the stats this week, I was umming and arring whether or not to bother as I think I missed a few matches (1 at the beginning and having to leave early).
     
    If anyone took any stats from those matches feel free to send across and I will incorporate them but otherwise yeah things are looking good!
     
    We had a great week with the play off's last week winning 6 in 7 (at least whilst I was there) which is probably some of our best play yet so well done lads!

    You still see some of the arcade machines about, having the foot pedal for cover and the guns often had haptic feedback in them.
     
    I played the house of the dead game that was on the Wii, that was good fun but lightguns generally do not work so well today obviously. There is a company that I believe has just released one that works with modern tv's but I can't remember the name of them.
     
    The closest experience now is a VR headset, I have a few games on there that do get the same sort of feel as playing some of these games though it's also different at the same time.

    The 90s was mostly consoles for me, SNES, PS1, N64 in particular...but towards the end of the decade I had a shitty desktop that allowed me to play the likes of Championship Manager and probably my favourite game of the time GTA 2.
     
    I did play games like Unreal Tournament on my mate's PC though 🙂

    I certainly spent a few quid at Thorpe Park and on the Ferry to France playing this in the arcade! Absolute classic but having not played the original remake, I'm not sure how these translate especially with controls. Along with Crazy Taxi, Silent Scope and Time Crisis, it's impossible to recreate the brilliance that arcade machines used to provide. I did have this on the Dreamcast back in the day along with the light gun but I don't remember too much about it.
