  1. not really how many used games a week would your store sell, compared to new game? if there are no trade ins and disgustingly skewed towards second hand stores like game left, then the actual money that the industry makes will increase, that's a guarantee. the industry is worth billions, yes, but a very, very hefty cut of those billions are second hand game sales where nobody in the industry sees a penny, aside from the likes of game
  2. never, ever, ever before has there been such a push on second hand sales by retailers as there is right now. walk into a game store and you'll see one shelf of new games, and the rest of the shop full of second hand ones - second hand sales that the publishers and developers dont see a penny of the retailers got greedy and they're paying for it
  3. it is true but the lead is a native american, so there's no glorifying the founding fathers or anything like that to be expected also, it's a canadian game, and they like to get a dig in to the guys down south when they can
  4. curt was sold for a mere 2.5m great piece of business from faulkner yet again :? we did well to get 2.5m
  5. game stores will be no loss to the industry in the long run they gouge the customer, they rob the industry of billions through second hand sales, and they do everything they can to annoyingly push their worthless "insurance" on unwitting buyers the sooner they're gone the better
  6. mcleish compensation wasnt agreed til june 16th, so it's not included
  7. obviously... they're clearly dated as up to may 31st
  8. But that was last season's figures though. We've made so many cutbacks this season and sold more players than we've bought that surely this season's figures will be an improvement. yeah you'd have to assume this years will be a lot better, but there's still gonna be a big loss again despite that we're financially ****, that's the bottom line here
  9. we're 8 points away from the relegation zone, which is an absolutely **** huge number of points at that end of the table. as said above, we'd need a huge turnaround from too many teams for us to go down
  10. sure anyone with half a brain knew that was the case. always pissed me off when people were going on the whole "where's the *insert player we sold* money gone? randy's bleeding the club" is he ****, we're bleeding him. the money from player sales is going on paying the wages, and we're STILL running at a big loss
  11. we sold those players AFTER may 2011, so they're not included in the figures
  12. we may deserve it, but you'd have to be a complete and utter clueless moron to think that we're going down
  13. no we're not nobody gives a **** about us, they dont care enough to laugh at us
  14. I'd argue that he's the best centre half we have along with potentially Clark. I'd agree with you. :winkold: Does that me it's me and you against the whole of VT in the keep Cuellar campaign?! id be in your camp on this one too tbh
  15. It absolutely depends what he can get elsewhere. Rangers won't beat what we can pay, if they can sign anybody, and I am not aware of the Spanish clubs outside of the big 2 and Real Mallorca being able to offer any more than we can. So unless Anzi Maka .... (whatever) or PSG are in for him I would have thought there is a deal to be done at a lower level than £40k in the current austere climate. his mate on here said he'd happily sign up for a new term on the same wages if he was going to be played. if we can get him to stay it'd be fantastic. he and clark could be a good solid partnership i think, though id play with him and dunne initially next season and phase clark in over the course of the first 6 months of the season
  16. But he did that sort of thing ALL THE TIME! He replaced the European champions with a load of dross that ended up getting relegated! When Ellis sold our top players he reinvested the cash received for them. Lerner has pocketed it. Absolutely scandalous. lerner pocketed it did he? it didnt go towards the massive **** wage bill no?
  17. definitely isn't us the reason they're investigating is clubs paying foreign players into offshore accounts, which they weren't allowed to access until they left the country, so that they could pay them more money but not have to have them paying tax on it how many foreigners have we had on the books since lerner took over? very, very few, and even fewer on big bucks absolutely definitely not us
  18. My Uncharted: Golden Abyss review is up I thought it was great to be honest!
  19. well the success of the system will be in the games themselves. no point buying it if theyre not up to scratch, only starting now to get into reviewing the pile of them that has accumulated on my desk in the last 10 days think ill start with uncharted
  20. Just put my Vita hardware review online... I likes it
  21. if there was any chance at all that i genuinely thought we would get rid of him and replace him with something better, id say no (in fact that's what i voted), but the fact that i cant see that actually happening, coupled with the fact that he's still using what is essentially someone else's squad, filled with players who are acting the bollox, then im happy enough to give him til next christmas tbh
  22. sure he's back off to the states tomorrow anyway, im sure he doesnt give a toss either way
