Lung I want to personally thank you for killing any small amount of excitement I had left for playing LA Noire with your screenshots in the PC thread :/

I hear it looks worse in motion as well, on top of the game being pretty shit.

No problem! That must be some old post though. :p

They did apparently roll out some patches though, but haven't bothered playing it since as it also performed pretty badly on my 570.
 
Yeah I am staying out of there until the next games. Once the important matches come in its much harder to take for fans. Would suck to be a Dutch supporter, their team really failed them. Then there's the ridiculously old Messi vs Ronaldo battles which never end. Madridistas/Portuguese people vs the rest.

Cant wait to see once the quarters/semis come around lol.

What battle? Messi is a 100 times better than Ronaldo.


Dutch fans deserves some shit. ;)

Most definitely, especially they were cheering against us. But it´s funny. The Dutch always think and have high hopes of winning tourneys, but they always crash and burn. I think that´s enough. No need to rub it more in.

All this talk about who is better, Messi or Ronaldo, is stupid.

The best player is this guy:

You're delusional if you think otherwise.

Lahm should get one (Ballon d'Or) before retiring. The guy is an incredible player and professional.
He could have won everything with Barcelona but preferred to stay at Bayern.

Well, he won't. No defender (or any player, really) will get a BdO while the freaks Messi and Ronaldo are still playing. Which sucks.

At least I want him to win a CL, or a WC. The rest of the team don't deserve to win it, but Lahm (and Neuer) do.

People don't really give a fuck about Lahm, outside of Bayern fans, but the guy is the best full-back in the whole world. And he's a true professional, he gives everything and doesn't come with bullshit like the rest of top players.

Schweini was a crybaby in the final. He couldn't take the pressure, Lahm was super solid as always and ice cold the whole match... what a player.

Well, he did miss the penalty. I would have cried in Neuer's arms, or something.

^Stop posting Bayern related pics. FLASHBACKS :(

What did he said? Only post I see he mentioned Devolution is a post inside this thread.

I can't see pics so I'm going to assume it's the one and only Badstuber!

Cat fight, Jeff was trying to mark his territory.
 
The papers seem to think West Ham are about to spunk a load of money - as much as I'd like that to be true, and as much as we need to spend to stay up, I can't see most of the signings mentioned going through, as today alone we're linked with;

Joselu from Real
Eljero Elia from Juve
Luc Castaignos from Inter
Burak Yilmaz from Trabzonspor
Demba Ba from the Barcodes

Throwing around 6-8m for each, not fucking likely! And I find it pretty hard to believe that we'd go in for Demba Ba after one of the Daves pissed off Newcastle by publicly talking about his contract in the press.

Demba Ba joins West Ham. West Ham are relegated, Demba Ba leaves West Ham. West Ham return, Demba Ba joins West Ham?

More Borini rumors with Liverpool. I'd really like that signing. Luuk de Jong, Ricky van Wolfspenis, Stevan Jovetic and Fabio Borini would all be great coups. Of course, one of those is infinitely less likely than the others :lol
 
#thfc start with Newcastle (A), then West Brom (H). Then Norwich (H), Reading (A), QPR (H), Man United (A)

Ben Pearce ‏@BenPearceSpurs
#thfc November will be fun: Man City (A) followed immediately by Arsenal (A), West Ham (H) and Liverpool (H).

Tottenham v Arsenal - March 2nd

Last match of the season at home to Sunderland.

Where can I see Arsenal's fixtures?

Hopefully not the bullshit start we were handed last season. Don't want Old Trafford too early in the season again....

What a shit start to the season that is and January looks bullshit as well. The only good thing about that list is the end to season looks to be a comfortable one with only a home game against Utd vs a top 4 club.

Oh well, if we get our shit together in the transfer market early this time around we should start well.

We have Derby away first game, Bolton away on boxing day and Middlesborough at home final day of the season.

I forgot how tough the Championship is until this morning. We don't appear to have any "easy" run of games.

It's right in the sense that if you're a big team you just deal with it :)

I guess we're just gonna have to.

Also thank you based City for your wonderful website. I can download the fixture list straight to my iCal and if fixtures change it will automatically update.
