  1. One occasional performance is not enough anymore.

    Hopefully burnt his bridges and will do the usual WBA, BCFC and Walsall transfer tour soon.

    Absolutely moronic comment. 

    I was just going to post something similar myself. Player puts in a great performance and gets this.

  2. The whole Rollins vs Reigns story line is now scrapped a major rewrite is going to be needed going into survivor series and beyond. Even the rumored face turn of Rollins to fight HHH at wrestlemania is probably now gone. 

    Time to give the likes of Casero and Ziggler the proper push they deserve but more likely Cena to step into the breach. 

    Personally I would want to see the New Day pushed more. I would love to see them trying to defend the WWEWHC under the free-bird rules would be awesome and hilarious. But #pushCesaro and maybe even push the Wade Barrett. 

    D-Bry returning would also really help cover the lack of star power visibly missing.

    Barrett really has been criminally underused. The whole king of the ring was completely botched.

  4. Got around to watching Spectre tonight. Craig is by far my favorite bond but even he couldn't save it. A terrible mess of a film which was more like an updated version of a Roger Moore Bond.

    The plot was poor and full of holes. Two bond sex scenes were shoe horned in out of nowhere that completed upset the pace and believability of the scenes and hurt the movie. 

    Very disappointing.

  5. Bloody hell the leftovers took a bit of a turn off the path! Took a while for me to get my head round it but it got there in the end, incredibly intriguing, needs more piano loop though

    Really liked the first series. Looking forward to this.

  6. Head coach Ancelotti, whose side will drop to second if Barcelona beat Rayo Vallecano on Sunday, admits Real have problems in attack, but refused to pin that on his players.

    "The responsibility is mine," he told reporters. "Others may say it is the fault of the team. But this is my [responsibility].

    At that's just one of the first ones that popped up on the Google machine. 

  7. I bought pro Evo this year for the first time in a long time mostly over the hype and ridiculously high reviews it was getting. As someone who basically just played career mode in FIFA I was looking forward to getting my teeth into the master league.

    After about a week of playing it I'm thinking of changing back to FIFA already. I spent at least 2 hours the first day simple editing the premier league to get the players, jerseys, emblems all correct. When it came to editing the managers even though I had the files I just couldn't be arsed. I still have the whole championship to do and that will take ages. The editing function feels very unwieldy and time consuming.

    the game play so far has touched of the worst of FIFA. Pace combined with spamming lofted through balls is an absolute killer. Time and time again it's got me one on one with the keeper who seem generally week. 

    The transfer mechanics seem poor you can't offer a bid on a player you approach a club and they say yes or no then you can start negotiating. So even if you want to do a man city and throw a fortune at a player you really want you simply can't.

    Traore is no where to be found or maybe I missed him. The Barcelona b team seems not to exist. Aubamenyang I found out last night doesn't exist not with Gabon his national team and of course Dortmund aren't in it. 

    I could of course edit those and the teams in but it's a lot of work for what's meant to be a fun game

  8. Does anybody give any credence to the theory that Mance Rayder is Rhaegar in hiding and his early trips to Winterfell were to see his son?

    Barristan did mention in one of the episodes how Rhaegar "loved to sing" and of course Mance was/is 'Bael the Bard' (Abel) .

    Pretty sure Robert said he  carved in his head with a warhammer on the trident. And isnt Mance an ex brother of the Nights watch?

  9.  

    In the past he has taken steroids but I can't see how he'd get away with it now, there must be some camera trickery in that photo.

    Since the Benoit murders, steroids have been practically eradicated from WWE.  Just look at the difference in physiques for the likes of Batista, HHH and Brock Lesnar.

    Unless they photoshopped his head onto another persons body then I can't see how his look can be just down to camera trickery. 69 year old men don't build muscle like that naturally.

     

    He's the owner not a wrestler the wellness policy doesnt apply to him. And who the f*ck is going to fire him.

  10. I thought the trailer looked half decent to be honest.

     

    It cant be worse than The Avengers anyway, that in my opinion suffered terrible from the Joss Whedon treatment.

  11. finished series 1 of OitNB, really enjoyed it

     

    anyone know who / when they are showing agent carter and 12 monkeys in the UK? seen that gracepoint in finally coming to the UK, ITV encore next month

    12 Monkeys has started on scifi already. Watched episode 3 last night.

  12. anyone read the kingkiller chronicles?

     

    my missues loves GoT and that was ranked as the best similar book

     

    There more akin to a maybe adult/fantasy harry potter type book. The first book is set mostly in a magical college.

    Its well written but for me no where near Game of Thrones in tone.

    I am quite convinced that EPO was and maybe still is used very much in football.

    Aren't there big rumours regarding pep guardiola and his use of these?

     

    Guardiola was suspended for Nandrolone use during his time in Brescia. It got overturned after an appeal.

     

    Dr Doping Eufemiano Fuentes was allegedly used by Barcelona and Real Madrid. Fuentes quotes:

    "I worked with Spanish first and second division clubs,"

    "I worked with several clubs at the same time, sometimes directly with the footballers themselves, sometimes by sharing my knowledge with the teams doctors.

    Fuentes was asked directly which football clubs he had worked with. "I can't tell, I have received death threats," he said.

     

    I'm not sure epo would really help with the type of exertion football requires. Sprinting 50m at a time then stopping suddenly and repeating or sudden bursts and stop start is more to do with muscles in correct places. Blood volume helps more with endurance sports like running or cycling.

     

    For recovery times (especially when playing 3 games in a week) it is a massive benefit. There's no risk in Spain as they don't do blood testing which means you can take all the epo you like.

     

    Of course EPO would have a huge effect on a footballer.

     

    I use to run a lot before in the gym usually an hour or two a day but mostly just 10-20km bursts. The few times I tried EPO I would easily knock 10-15 mins off my time. If it can have that effect on a medium fit guy like me on a threadmill I cannot imagine the boost a footballer would get from it during a match.
