  1. If you feel threatened, and you are using reasonable force proportionate to the threat, go ahead. If it's 3 on 1 you'd be far better off running though i'd suggest. If you had to whack him to get away, that's fine.
  2. We might not get relegated but any talk of "progress" can go and **** itself when we're losing to a relegation rival at home and playing such dire football. We are not better in any meaningful way than we were last year, we've just had a few lucky results against the top sides and it's been basically business as usual against sides we should be beating.
  3. You'd like to hope that eventually the bubble will burst, but it's so hard to see where that comes from.
  4. I'm quite partial to M'Vila in a Villa shirt But that's just because I bought him in my FIFA 13 manager career mode. I also bought Aguero and Bale.
  5. Great start! Playing the ball around well and got the reward!
  6. Just to further that, it goes for every sort of clothing. Nothing makes an overweight person look fatter than loose fitting clothing. Sure, you don't want something to be painted on that you're bulging out of, but loose fitting just makes you look fatter. You want something that fits properly without a lot of excess material hanging around. I only have Macron's first effort for us, but if the cut for the larger sizes is the same as the cut for the medium with way too much room in the midsection, it will be making overweight people look worse than they are. I have no idea why Macron decide to give their Italian sides a slim fitting shirt and their English sides a really loose fitting shirt, but i'm hoping it's rectified for us by next season. The shirts for Lazio and Napoli are really classy this season.
  7. I do agree with the notion that clubs should only be able to spend what they actually earn so success is earn't rather than bought though. I think if you had FFP in from the start then Chelsea and Man City wouldn't have blown wages up so much and the clubs at the top would be closer to the clubs at the bottom. Agree totally, and it would have been fantastic if this had been brought in 20 years ago when the Premier League first started. As it stands now, the only way to be successful in football is to spend. Now for probably 86 of the 92 teams, winning the premier league isn't even possible if they are bought by a billionaire. The door is closed.
  8. How does this get voted in? It's just a massive glass ceiling over the bottom 14 clubs in the league. It's a rule that "protects clubs from themselves" by stopping them from ever trying to be genuinely successful. **** FFP. As if the pointy end of the table wasn't already reserved for the rich clubs, now it's been legislated in.
  9. I was a stupid kid and it was almost a decade ago and i've changed it on every other forum I frequent but I haven't gotten around to figuring out how to change it here.
  10. I don't agree with this. For example Australia would have had to do a fair bit of development to turn our Oval stadiums into football friendly stadiums for the tournament. But we'd have done so without killing thousands of slaves. FIFA are horrendously corrupt and until a band of bigger countries are prepared to strongarm FIFA into putting the right people into leadership or alternatively, break away from FIFA altogether, nothing will change.
  11. People here are getting it all wrong in regards to slim fitting shirts. Overweight people will look better in a larger sized slim cut shirt than they will in the loose, garbage bag fitting efforts that Macron have produced thus far. People who are in reasonable shape will look much better Just because it's a slim fit design doesn't mean you have to buy a small size. They still make XXXLs in a slim fit design and they're designed for people who would usually wear an XXXL shirt.
  12. We only played British Bulldog at footy training (Aussie rules). As when I played i'd had my growth spurt and most kids hadn't, they'd leave me alone until the end when they could afford to have 4 or 5 of them taking me down. If I started in the middle i'd just tackle the next biggest dudes in order and the game would be over very quickly.
  13. The problem has usually been that it's not big in the big videogame markets, like the US, Japan, China etc. Thankfully India makes it viable. The problem with every cricket game ever is that it takes you about 10 minutes to work out how to bat, then you just belt sixes every ball and there is no challenge. I'm hoping the control system here will fix that.
  14. Road to World Cup 98 had it all. Every. Single. Football. Playing. Nation Think about that for a minute. It was a magnificent achievement and given that the FIFA 14 has like 50 leagues, it surely would be doable in this day and age. Not to mention the magnificently fun indoor football (the fact that it hasn't come back since is some sort of sick joke) and the ability to edit clubs and players It was a multiplayer dream. I'm annoyed just thinking about the indoor football and that it hasn't ever returned. Why do EA hate fun?
  15. Facebook link It was discussed briefly on here after the Ashes Cricket 2013 debacle, but Don Bradman Cricket 14 is finally due out on April 3rd. It features a revolutionary control system where you use one stick for footwork and the other to play the stroke, and a similar exciting new system for bowling. Probably most exciting of all for me, it features a be-a-pro type career mode, which lends itself perfectly to cricket. It's not licenced, but it has an incredibly powerful creation suite that has been available to people for a long time now, so realistic players should be able to be very easily downloaded on the day of release. I can't wait!
  16. World class build up and a finish that most players in the world wouldn't even attempt let alone be able to pull off. Brilliant.
  17. Yeah this made it much easier. First time I tried I got 1003 passengers. Both not having to worry about using upgrade opportunities on tunnels and the fact that the river may as well not be there now made it much easier. I think they should still have tunnels, but make the tunnels able to carry multiple lines. So if you cross 2 or 3 lines at the same point it's only one tunnel
  18. You can get really lucky or unlucky with the placement of stations. If they mix up the placement of the stations well it's quite easy to get 500. Last game I had 6 circles, 1 triangle and 1 star above the river, and only one square on the map, below the river. A decent mix below, but the stations that linked to bridges couldn't handle the squares banking up above the river.
  19. Oh man you can what? There are so many times where i've been desperate for a pause function because I want to rewire my entire system but I didn't know it existed. I've been averaging high 300s but this will greatly help.
  20. This is really addictive. Looking forward to the android version
  21. A man after my own heart So you wanna join wWo? What's your finisher? wWo 4 life Traditionally a Scorpion Deathlock but I never owned a WCW game so I didnt feel so bad borrowing heavily from Sting's moveset in WWF No Mercy. I had dozens of characters, many of which translated to backyard wrestling in my teens.
  22. No Mercy remains to this day the best wrestling game ever released IMO. My mates and I must have played thousands of hours of it.
  23. Pretty basic but here are a few different colour variations. I just chose a font that I quite liked and went with it. I'm open to any ideas from others who know much better than me. I just want to avoid the usual cheesy PT logos. The name comes from a few of my mates who call me Johnny Bravo because I apparently look a bit like him (minus the skinny legs and slick hair, obviously ) and have the same first name. I was hoping to get some sort of crest (with a slogan) done as well that could be used both with and independently of the name as required. As I said, if anyone fancies having a go, I can give you more details or if anyone has a designer they've used and would recommend, let me know, along with details of how much I should expect to pay. Cheers again. I quite like this but lose the outline. It's not necessary. I'd also choose a slightly bolder font for fitness.
