Blue Rosler

Stelios, Ricardo Vaz Te and Jay Jay Okocha are in negotiations.

He's a cunt. Not a very good signing for Bolton. On paper he sounds brilliant, but he's a lazy, overpaid wanker.

Gabbidon, Bothroyd and Dyer. Yeah, we're going to be hearing Warnock moaning about getting relegated in ten months time.

I think it's a possible as he's a solid squad player, who Alex Ferguson will think he can tame, and will count towards the home-grown player rule. Ferdinand, Owen and Giggs won't have much steam left in them. Brown, O'Shea, Hargreaves and Scholes can no longer count. He'd pose as a nice stop-cap rather than putting Cleverley fully into the fold before he's ready.

In!

Why is it their responsibility exactly? I mean, operating under the assumption that she did indeed die of an overdose (I haven't read anything that actually confirms as such), she's been told time and time again. Hell, she references it in "Rehab." It's not like she was some naive kid, or that it's a massive secret that drug abuse can be hazardous to your health. It's ultimately her responsibility to look after herself. There's no one else to blame. It's a sad occurrence, yes. But I'm sick of seeing all these Twitter tributes and people on the radio throwing the word 'tragedy' around. It's not. It is a tragedy in the sense that someone has died well before they have a chance to live a long life. I understand she was an addict, but I do not think that makes it not a tragedy. It was tragic that she was an addict and it is tragic that her addiction has most likely killed her. As you said, we have no evidence that is how she died so we will see but she was only 27 I believe? Way too young for anyone to die in my opinion. No, no, no. She had the same chance at life as anyone else (or at least anyone else that wasn't born with a life-threatening illness or whathaveyou; I digress). She was reckless with her health. Even if it turns out it wasn't an OD, it's hard to believe that it's not going to be in some way related to her lifestyle choices. I should add that I've no problem with people taking drugs by the way, whatever gets you off, and if she died doing something that made her happy, then fair play. But the way she's been exonerated from blame in the media and such, whether she because she was a special musical talent or whatever, is dumb. Why is it their responsibility exactly? I mean, operating under the assumption that she did indeed die of an overdose (I haven't read anything that actually confirms as such), she's been told time and time again.

But I'm sick of seeing all these Twitter tributes and people on the radio throwing the word 'tragedy' around. It's not. It's not that it's their responsibility. But if you care for someone. If you really truly care for them you don't just say "Oh well. She should know better." You don't do it because you're required to you do it because damn it thats my friend and I dont want her to die. But there's many accounts of her friends and family trying to help her and she simply didn't take their advice or help. Hell, what more evidence do you need than "they tried to make me go to rehab, but I said no" ? Since when was it fucking news that drug abuse was harmful to your health? Completely agree. What annoys me most is the media, before this, only published stories on her when it was effectively "Lol, Amy looks a mess these days, silly druggy." And now she's died, she's suddenly a media darling who they couldn't think of a negative thing to say about.

Oh fuck. Valerie is going to Number One isn't it.

I heard the Scott Parker deal is basically "Take him on loan, pay his full wages, if West Ham get re-promoted he's coming back to us, if we don't, he's yours for free."

Reading that Villa want to get Wes Brown, Hitzlsperger and Scott Parker... I really like them now Those are three reliable players, which is what Villa need, rather than people who can be brilliant, or can be utter shite.

Who says Honduras won't do it? >_>

I did quite well with Spurs in my first season, and I've managed to sign Wickham, Chamberlain, Smithies and Cahill as lots of young British stars to make the future. I've got a new right-back in Tenconi. Willian in midfield, and some more under 18s to boost the youth side. But we've struggled so far this season.

Any other suggestions? It's switched on and all sides I tried to play with start with £0, and I have to manually 'Edit Wage/Transfer Budget' later on. Are there any kind of further updates I can give to the 11.3 patch?

Doesn't seem to be it, I installed the 11.3 patch direct onto the original game, will that be the problem? 'Allow first window transfer budgets' is ticked..

Wait, when I start a new game, why does everyone have 0 pounds to spend?

Starting a new game now, but can't choose between Middlesbrough, Everton and Bolton. Any ideas?

I had a dream that Newcastle swopped Joey Barton with Scott Parker. And Barton went back to being a complete twat, and Scott Parker did brilliantly. I hope this doesn't come true.

HI JOHNNYPERFECT

HI BADDAR

West Ham want McLeish as the new boss. That makes sense, have the new manager ALSO have taken their club into relegation. But they are trying to get Tomasz Kuszczak to replace Green which isn't a horrible move.

In his defence, Alex Ferguson does come across as the kind of cunt you'd struggle to think of positive things to say about.

I just hope that they give the transfer proceeds to the new manager with an attempt to genuinely build a new side. What with Scott Parker, Rob Green, Pablo Barrera, Matthew Upson, Demba Ba and Carlton Cole probably being sold, they could get a pretty decent figure for the six, even considering lower-costs due to relegation. Plus we're no longer required to sign Robbie Keane, which is a bullet dodged. And they can use relegation as a handy excuse to release Kieron Dyer and Luis Boa Morte from their huge contracts. Just try to keep hold of Reid, Tomkins, Collison, Hitzlsperger, Noble, Spector, Piquionne and give a lot more game time to Freddie Sears and Zavon Hines. And pushing more of the other promising youth-team like Stech and Stanislas. There is a positive side to relegation, as there's a chance to fix the utter mess that is West Ham. But then again, Gold/Sullivan/Brady are in charge, so nothing at all will be saved.
