The World League II

First topic message reminder :

No not me I haven't really played the Destiny rip off.

2 goals in 9 mins for Dortmund...2 well worked goals too.

Dortmund have been top drawer again this season, saw something the other day where it said this is their best ever points tally yet they won't win the league with it probably.

Can only doff my cap to Liverpool there. Well played Klopp, well played.

That's the true power of the YNWA in full flow.

They're discussing the nightmare scenario.

Man U come 4th ahead of City
City win CL
Liverpool win EL
Man U miss out on CL

Won't happen because I don't see City winning CL but equally I don't see Man U finishing 4th.

I hate Liverpool. In the CL Final I was having a house party, I watched the first half then went upstairs to have relations with my then-girlfriend. Read the paper on the tube the next day

Then last night, I got 3 hours sleep, one of which was the second half

The Dortmund and Liverpool love in made me sick. Even though I wanted the scousers to lose it was nice to see Dortmund lose in such dramatic fashion. Disgusting fans deserved it.

Hopefully it means Aubameyang will sign for City this summer, allowing them to play Aguero-PEA up front

I didn't even watch the 2005 Champions League final. I was 18 years old and as my girlfriend at the time, her mate and her mate's boyfriend were all 17 they couldn't get into any pubs with the football on (over zealous bouncers in Crawley 11 years ago)

So instead of watching one of the greatest comebacks in football, I was cruising around in my Citroen Saxo listening to music. Youth.

Even last night I didn't watch it as I watched Jurassic World instead!

Man City v Real Madrid
Atletico Madrid v Bayern Munich

Best outcome for City there, sounds weird with Ronaldo playing but I think Atletico would beat them over two legs, Munich playing the best football of the semi finalists, Real Madrid showed how beatable they are losing the first leg to Wolfsburg and relying on Ronaldo to bail them out.

Belated Happy Birthday Hero, I didn't see it til just now

I was going to the pub three nights a week when I was 14, paying for drinks through my fruit machine winnings. Glad I didn't grow up in Crawley!

Morning all

Dealing with the worst hangover after my leaving drinks last night

I didn't have a problem getting into the older, run down pubs from the age of 15, but the ones in town with the football on always had bouncers checking for ID.

Where you heading to, presuming its your job you're leaving?

Bammers' head is going 'BamBam, BamBam' right now

Why would you have your leaving drinks on a Thursday? Friday is always the day to do it!

Heading off to work for Sky's commercial finance team

Yesterday was with my department, tonight I'm out with the people at work I actually like and want to see before I go!

I was on a pub pool team at the age of 14!

That's code for 'stand round a shopping centre all day ignoring potential punters', right? In all seriousness, I'm actually curious to know what that involves.

Who do I send tactics to?

Haha .. I'm not actually sure! I've been working in an accounting practice since I graduated, so this is my first move out into "industry" so not quite sure what to expect

I think I'm going to be doing budgeting, forecasts, project appraisal, trend/competitor analysis .. all that fun stuff!

I said I'd do voting in Olly's absence, but wanted his £1.5m in addition to my own £1m. Once anyone says that's a deal, I'll accept Premiership tactics.

I think we should give Olly a chance to do results TBH. If he hasn't done them by Monday then we should try something else.

He hasn't done tactics for at least three weeks, it's safe to assume he's not doing voting.

I'll do voting

Alas olly arises from the shadows

I've never seen a million pounds in my bank account before.

I sent tactics my tactics to Azzy I'll forward them to you Olly.

I am getting dark souls tonight.

I'd invite you to do Co-op Nadeem but I refuse to pay Sony for online when A) servers are Poopie and always down for maintenance B) they give us game that aren't indie crap.

I downloaded and played Everybody's Gone To The Rapture on PS4 this past week, weird plot but the attention to detail is unreal.

I'm still absolutely loving the Division, the PvP area is easily the best PVP game I've ever played.

Tactics sent to Olly, goodluck Viva.

Same to you Miky.

I've got a spare ticket for the semi v everton anyone fancy coming,you'll be sitting next to me.

When is it?

Next Saturday 23rd.

If it was the 30th I'm free but can't do next Saturday as taking the kids to Crawley v Carlisle (can't cancel on them no matter how ridiculous it might be to choose that League 2 dead rubber over an FA Cup semi final)

No worries mate. I wouldn't cancel on my kids too (if I had kids)

City playing really well. Play like this v Real Madrid and they've got a great chance.

I know no-one rates the Dutch league but my boy Janssen got another 4 goals yesterday, that's 19 goals in his last 14 games.

I rate the Dutch League mate

In the United end?

Yep United end but I've gave the ticket to my brothe too much hassle trying to sell it on twitter.

Viva i could get down to Wembley if there's a ticket?

I've got tactics from marky azzy and bambam

Tactics sent.

What a Poopie performance from the ref in the Leicester game. That guy should never officiate important games ever again.

No worries. I'm in Swindon that afternoon for a family birthday and was thinking whether I could abandon the wife and kids and make it to Wembley.

Hope it's better than the last United-Everton semi final in 2009. Worse game ever, although I did get to witness Danny Welbeck tackling himself.

Question of the day for everyone:

Looking back over the season so far, which players do you regret not buying in the initial draft?
