Captain Kirk

I see WWE 2K22 all online services being shut down with it being less than two years old.

What a joke.

Decided to watch from the start of the reboot again, always loved Eccleston as the Doctor.

Was it given as a foul or offside? If offside it's harsh but understandable.

Offside apparently. 

It was given as a foul at first, changed that to saying offside later in the game.

Possibly the worst foul call I’ve ever seen in my life.

I think my issue was the side quests were more interesting story wise than the main game.

They will also be selling a detachable disc drive separately for anyone who buys a digital console and wants to use discs later.

Any idea if that will work with the old Digital console?

The 2028 LA Olympics will likely have baseball/softball, cricket, flag football, lacrosse and squash included as sports.

Does anyone play actually flag football or lacrosse apart from America?

Hats off to @gunnar hendershow running away with it now!

I think the last Rangers game I watched was against Eintracht, but on paper it doesn't look too bad. Maybe he'll blag his way into another job on the back of his stats.

I think the gap between Celtic and Rangers and the rest of the SPL has widened so much that even bad managers are going to have 65%+ winning percentages.

To play a bit of devil's advocate; while he comes across as a cretin, he actually had a good win percentage and his 'poor run of form' has been losing to PSV, losing 1-0 to Ange's Celtic team and losing to Aberdeen after a red card. If I'm getting the sack on FM after that so early in the season right after beating Real Bétis, I'd be raging.

I think he has promised too much and failed to meet his own lofty goals, otherwise it seems pretty harsh. I'll miss the banter about his mole and him being a Poundland Danny Dyer.

Will be interesting to see what happens with his new signings like Danilo.

He lost 1-0 to a Celtic side with Liam Scales and Lagerbielke at the back though and the one way to deal with Celtic is to put a man on McGregor, plus Aberdeen have been awful this year. That and 'Cantwell doesn't suit playing Killie'. 😂

Supposedly there was problems between him and the players after the kit-man got the sack too. I think the biggest issue is he just promised all this stuff and there was zero identity to his tactics. He took Yilmaz out the Europa League squad then has started him the last few weeks. Job was just far too big for him. If we'd looked good but got beat the last few games I think fans would have been more forgiving.

Think he's just another in a long line of good 'tacticians' who can't make their ideas work in real game situations and better off as an assistant.

Oh. Thats disappointing.

Rhys McCabe is still playing for Airdrie whilst manager though.

Steven Davis as caretaker player-manager. Quite nice to see a player-manager, that's a bit of a throwback. But he's got no experience so we'll see how that goes.

He's still injured and not sure he's even registered to play. Was still at the club to rehab his ACL injury.

One of the worst managers I've had the displeasure of seeing at Rangers, how he took the job was despicable in the first place. Won't be welcome back.

Gave up on what appears to be the last dungeon of FFXVI, just completely bored of it. Fighting the same enemies constantly and genuinely don’t care about any of the main characters.

It’s sad that the side characters are more interesting.

I won't have the game for another couple of weeks I'm afraid.

Week 7;

Aston Villa 2 vs. 2 Brighton (Sat 12.30pm, TNT)
West Ham 1 vs. 0  Sheff Utd (Sat 3pm)
Wolves 0 vs. 3 Man City (Sat 3pm)
Tottenham 2 vs. 1 Liverpool (Sat 5.30pm, Sky)
Nottm Forest 1 vs. 0 Brentford (Sun 2pm, Sky)

@Baddar is the number after the name correct scores? Should I not be at 3 as I had 1 the week before and got 2 this week. Apologies if mistaken!

EDIT - Also appear to be 3 points short. Scored 8 and only 5 added.

Crystal Palace 2 vs. 0 Fulham (Sat 3pm)
Luton 1 vs. 1 Wolves (Sat 3pm)
Burnley 1 vs. 2 Man Utd (Sat 8pm, TNT)
Arsenal 2 vs. 2 Tottenham (Sun 2pm, Sky)
Sheff Utd 1 vs. 3 Newcastle (Sun 4.30pm, Sky)

Does this mean I can't get Josh McEachran and Connor Wickham in for Troon FC on part time deals anymore just cause they haven't played a few months?

Yup, seemed that's where it was likely headed. I think we all know where disc 1 might be concluding too!

I think they have a ton of freedom with the third game as while narratively the Northern Crater is probably a tad over 2/3 of the way through there's so much you can add on based on some of the exposition dialogue crammed in during the game's late stages. Wouldn't be surprised if they go a 2 disc route with that one as well and just flesh out a ton of the stuff that was merely mentioned or in quick cut scenes. They could also just go wild with more shit to do in Midgar as well.

Could the second disc be the other reality where Zack survived?

I almost never preorder games but I think I'm going to have to with Rebirth.

I still haven't played the real game but going by the demo I got the sense that I'd be using that "press down on the pad and see reminders as to who the characters and the kingdoms and events being referenced are" feature a lot.

Still not sure who I’m actually fighting? Don’t get me wrong it’s a fun setting and game just doesn’t seem to make much sense.
