Been playing Civ 5 all afternoon with, or rather against both my brothers. The elder and younger ganged up on me. Had to pay the younger 20 gold per turn to stop attacking me. I've never felt so weak.

I want to get into Civ 5, but first I need it to go on sale and then I need enough time on my brother's PC to play it.

Can't believe Gerrard's succumbed to the shirt. If I were him I wouldn't even wear a shirt.

Nervous it won't live up to last season. It really was something else.

I think it'll be far more competitive. Chelsea and Man United have already strengthened with key signings (Hazard, Kagawa, possibly Hulk?!) so the title race should be a 3 horse race this time.

Not expecting much from Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool and Newcastle tbh. Think they'll battle for Europe but not much else.

I couldn't remember all your twitter handles :(

I'm afraid to link my Tweet, if you weren't included you'll just have to read my feed.

Very excited to see Spurs, as well as Liverpool for obvious reasons. New managers get my blood pumping. I love to hear about new ideas and clubs transitioning in style and philosophy. Want to see how AVB fares most of all.

Arsenal seem to have been fairly active in the transfer market so far. I wouldn't rule us out for next season, depending on the business we do. I wouldn't say we'll challenger for the title but I can see us coming third.

I really wanna get into Civ. My brother has it so I could play it, just a case of actually getting around to it.

How is it that you come across these pictures. Is it party of a daily search you run?

How long before Women's Football catches up with the male side? Are mixed competitions going to be a reality sometime in the distant future?

Nah men, it's just nog good enough. Back when I was young we had a female on our youth team. She was better than all the boys, only time I have seen a girl in a man's team.

She now plays for the Dutch national team so that says something hehe.

You generally want to be running on the margins. If you have a 20 gold surplus you can lower it through a larger army/ beter citys etc

Through a combination of my luxury resources and policies I have a huge surplus. I don't think I could get it down that much anyway. Using all that extra $ to buy units at the moment.

Also another tip specialise your cities- eg one produces units, one is a science farm another money etc

He should gobble up the championship easily provided he doesn't get injured.

£35k a week.

Those aren't Championship wages no matter how much gobbling is involved.

(Also he was crap at Championship level for us but he's been at Newcastle and done OK since I guess so.. eh. £35k is still an obscene weekly wage for Leon Best)
