I apologise for the lack of feedback in my votes, forgot last night and am rushing to do some work this morning.

Will put it up this evening Ok!

by Marky Tue 17 Sep 2013, 8:53 am

I did my voting last night then the website wouldn't reload to send the PM Laugh

Saved it to word and will send it now.

Sorry to see you go Cherries. Although I have to say, getting someone to take over that Basel team will be tough. If it helps, I'll offer my Southampton team if someone comes in and take Basel on.

by sodhat Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:04 am

Votes will be added up at kunch. Any non-voters have until then to do it, and if you don't you lose un goal.

Well it is at Paddy Power. They are also doing Hail Mary weekend, where on all games, they give the money back on all losing handicap bets if the last touchdown is 25 yards or more

I should have backed up my mouth and taken the under.

by **Afro** Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:10 am

No AJ Green TD though Sad

by FIFA Diva Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:11 am

Morning

Sodhat has Nick sent in votes?

by sodhat Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:13 am

Nothing from him Viva, no.

by **Afro** Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:15 am

Viva - if you are going to be involved in the league, now is the time to stand up when you are needed and take on the vacant team!

Cherries has vacated Basel, so you can take on that. Alternatively, Marky has offered Southampton and he would take Basel, and similarly, if it got a new manager, I would let them have Bilbao and I would take Basel

by Gregers Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:16 am

Will be voting asap, site wasn't working for me last night. Will have them in by 12 at the latestv

by sodhat Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:29 am

Does Bull want a team? He's knocking around here from time to time. He can chat to ZZZ about Breaking Bad to pass the time too.

by **Afro** Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:31 am

We could do with someone who isn't going to decide that they aren't interested in half a season's time

Least you managed to see the tactics first, I attempted to come on to vote and couldnt get the site, I blame the owners.

Fair point.

Anyone but CF.

How about some of the managers cast out by the other league folding. Any of them interested at all?

by **Hero** Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:33 am

Bull will be playing GTA for the next month or so I reckon.

by **Hero** Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:34 am

There's Holymiky who really showed promise, I've tried but he wanted to leave it for now, someone else may be worthwhile asking him?

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:37 am

Morning, Viva should be handling my duties for now, but I don't think we discussed voting. want me to get some in?

by sodhat Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:40 am

You have to vote to avoid a goal deduction

by **Afro** Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:49 am

I'm in 2 minds about which keeper to play. I would have said Irazioz at the start, but Valverde has gone with Herrerin in the last two games, including at the Bernabeau, and he has done well.

Who to pick, established name or the one who appears to be being favoured IRL...?

by sodhat Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:50 am

You could have Noel Edmonds in goal and it would massively affect your ratings.

by **Afro** Tue 17 Sep 2013, 9:52 am

True, but as I have both, I might as well pick the best option.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Tue 17 Sep 2013, 10:08 am

Ok ill get voting quickly, but if the post turns up im lost forever.

by Guest Tue 17 Sep 2013, 10:12 am

Cherries I am going to leave you abuse on XBOX Live until you return. Fo shizzle.

I too would be happy to vacate my side and take on Basel.

by sodhat Tue 17 Sep 2013, 10:17 am

Blimey, everyone wants Basel eh?

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Tue 17 Sep 2013, 10:18 am

Its the Neymar factor.
You could get a big transfer for him, good few players.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Tue 17 Sep 2013, 10:22 am

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Flat 4's GTA5 has turned up from Amazon but mine hasn't!!!!
Hes at work, should I take it & give him mine later? lol nah that's wrong.

by Guest Tue 17 Sep 2013, 10:28 am

You don't sell a player like Neymar, you build a side around him - it might take some time, but Cherries made zero signings. Just a few tweaks here and there and by the end of the season Basel could be good.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Tue 17 Sep 2013, 10:32 am

It would take a while to do it. Lawyers would be small offers, + £1m a week.

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Damn you Amazon!!!! I don't get why Flat 4's copy has turned up & mine hasn't!!!! Stupid fricking royal mail! AHHHHHHH

by Guest Tue 17 Sep 2013, 10:45 am

Two years ago I pre-ordered NHL 12, it took three weeks to show up. I'd already gone and bought it from Game, then shipped it back to Amazon for a refund. It took another month to get the refund, followed by another month to get the delivery cost refunded. I paid £5 to get it on the day of release and it took 3 frigging weeks to get here Laugh

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Tue 17 Sep 2013, 10:50 am

I got free carriage through Amazon prime.
I was going to take the gamestop offer but after breaking my hand I couldn't be arsed running around.
So anyway, there are offices downstairs so im hoping there could be more parcels turning up, I doubt it though. Oh well, should turn up tomorrow but im back at the hospital tomorrow then im planning to return to work on Thursday.
If its not here by Friday ill go buy it then get a refund from amazon.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Tue 17 Sep 2013, 10:57 am

AHHH another bleeding Silver pack for my FUT14 daily free gift. today sucks!!

by Guest Tue 17 Sep 2013, 11:06 am

I think you'll be the only one out of all of us playing FIFA 14 bro. The demo is God-awful.

by sodhat Tue 17 Sep 2013, 11:08 am

I'm so busy with Madden that I doubt I'll get GTA. No game could live up to GTA London though. I might dig that one out later. Awesome.

Im not playing the demo, im on the early web app release. Started last Friday, been trading (well trying) on it to build coins. Its hard tho as my free welcome back packs were all poop so ive only managed to get 5k coins so far. Im trying to get 10k then I can start trading better. Most players are cheap right now & will rise once the game actually comes out so im trying to get to 20k ish & then buy a few investments like fast Silver Brazillians as they will sky rocket in price.
Some guy got Ozil in his welcome back pack, how fracking lucky!!! Theres also one Rooney on the market. Once the game is out they will sell for loads

by Guest Tue 17 Sep 2013, 11:18 am

I know that's what you're doing, I'm saying no-one else here will be getting FIFA 14. The demo is so bad it's put us all off.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Tue 17 Sep 2013, 11:21 am

Denos isn't that bad & its a demo. Its only a taster. I plan to plat GTA a lot but Ill probs get fifa around xmas time, I do know more pp, than just you lot who play it Azzy.

by sodhat Tue 17 Sep 2013, 11:22 am

Trying to make us jealous?

Marky wrote:My verdict on the FIFA 14 demo - it sucked. Nothing to do with pace of players. Just the gameplay feels so slow. Midfielders can't just turn and pass, they've got to 100% control it first. Harder to play, and not in a good way. PES 14 is good. Last year I played both the Fifa 13 and PES 13 demos, and Fifa was miles ahead. I prefer PES 14 to Fifa 14 which shows how PES has improved. I also don't like it, general gameplay seems too slow. What's the point of Fifa if it's too lifelike? If I want lifelike I'll play football.

Nando wrote:im happy with it, i like to knock the ball about anyway. i think the slowness brings more a realism to it, it's better then playing ping-pong football.

Azzy wrote:I thought it was dreadful. It takes an age to 'swap' player. Players run like retards. Shooting is rubbish. Deflections are mental, completely random. Tackling much worse. Confirms why I'm not buying it!

Apart from you, four people commented, three of whom thought the demo was rubbish. I rest my case zen

So that means people wont buy it? lol, people can still change their minds or heck lets not get to the unthinkable.....not like a demo but still buy the full finished version of the game. No one ever does that do they.
I wasn't going to buy it last year & I did. Demos are not the complete game. If people done buy it, it will be because of GTA, lot of my mates are waiting till xmas due to GTA coming out. Im probs going to do the same, I may buy it before as I will need something to play as a break from GTA but with Battlefield, Batman there's a few games ill be getting.

Azzy, you submitted 2 Prezictions, only your first will be used.

by Zinedine_Ze_Zebra Tue 17 Sep 2013, 11:43 am

PreZiction League Results: Week 4

Azzy: 8

by sodhat Tue 17 Sep 2013, 11:46 am

Woot.

I think that's the first time I've played too. 100% record.

COME AT ME BRO

by **Hero** Tue 17 Sep 2013, 11:46 am

I'm awaiting to see if the PS4 version is the supposed upgrade it's meant to be and then Noah's getting it for his birthday!
