Like Homer Simpson being forced to eat donuts?

Also, good gaming taste you have, that game is a GOAT even if I cba to go back and finish it.

Haha I love that bit in the Simpsons. Couldn’t see the lads having the same appetite for gaming after my sleep deprivation torture.

I absolutely loved TotK. Same as you I seasoned it for ages, then life got in the way so didn’t play it for a few weeks and didn’t want to invest more time getting back into it!

Im not a massive gamer but I like my Switch when I finally get enough free time to use it. Fave games on it are Tears of the Kingdom, Into the Breach, Octopath Traveller 2, Civilisation (which I’m shite at).

So KP45 returns to the CBS today. Whether he plays or not is another thing but what sort of reception will he get given he instigated the move away.
will it be the same as OHare or the embarrasing gush that Hamer go taking that corner ?

personally I would just ignore him

Correct. Didn’t leave on controversial terms, also did very little in his time here. Not worth a boo or clap.

 

[CV22SBA]

Club expecting 25k

Even at 25K that will probably be the second highest attendance in the championship

 

[Jamesimus]

I used to have this running under 11s.
Other managers had the same problem and used to go online and get their players off them on a Saturday night.

How did you stop them @eastwoodsdustman ? Hit them with sticks / stop their wages / make them play a game where they wear the consoles as football boots?

It's one of those games that you can play for tens of hours but once you stop you really cba to go back. I did the same with Witcher 3.
Good thing about Switch is you can just play in bed for an hour or so when you fancy it at night, which is about all you have time/energy for when your kid is as mental as mine.

If I had kids I definitely wouldn’t have the time for it. I always feel like I need a spare 3 hours minimum to play anything!

Witcher 3 I’ve got, but I put absolutely no effort into it, played it for an hour and put it down but I should probably persevere as I tend to like open world games.

You need to set aside a good wedge of time or you just won't get into it. Like all open world games imo.

I’ll put it on after we concede the second goal today.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Dovin
MVE Thomas Binks Bidwell
Rudoni Sheaf Allen
Tatsu Norm EMC

 

[Jamesimus]

I think I’d actually go same team. Does that sound mad? Is that mad?

Maybe give Simms a start and bring the Hound on against tired legs.

 

[Captain Dart]

The actual reason is quite funny actually....


Was on the sleep coaches advice for 12.30 fixtures as, and i shit you not, a few of them are taking the piss being on PS5 Etc until the early hours........

Entirely believable, what a terrible lack of professionalism.

 

[Jamesimus]

Wouldn’t be surprised to see EMC benched and a bit of rotation in midfield though.

Did Rudoni take his guitar?

Lose today and we really are in the shit

 

[Jamesimus]

If we lose today I will concede to the term “relegation battle”, which I’ve currently been ignoring on here.

 

[Para1140]

We wernt actaully that poor against WBA and matched them for most of the game. Looking at how many chances we had in the game we actually should have got at least a point if not more but same old story we didnt take our chances and got sucker punched by two shots and two goals. wBA for all their possession were actually pretty poor

I thought we shaded possession in the game but might be wrong. I agree with you generally. I thought West Brom were better last season, but still pretty uninspiring. Now they are well managed and against us, effective without looking impressive. Thought their keeper looked a confident player.

West Brom have a fairly pragmatic approach. They seem happy surrendering the ball and getting behind it. I'd hate to watch that every week

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Interesting observation from a Hull fan. Sums our season up


Saturday 12:30 kick off
More of the same from the players needed. More effort more running and definitely need to be more clinical.
I’ve just watched the highlights of cov v wba
And cov missed so many sitters it was ridiculous. Should have won the game easily.
Aren’t players practising finishing these days?

 

[Tommo1993]

Never mind lose. If we don’t win it’ll be pretty toxic.

I’m going to boo while clapping just to be on the safe side

 

[stay_up_skyblues]

Fuck it. 4-4-2 and more direct. Desperate times..

GK - Whoever but Collins at this point, Dovin, Lampard, Oggy

RB - Lati (just stay back and defend)
CB - Thomas
CB - Kitching
LB - Bidwell (see Lati instructions)

RW - Saka
CM - Sheaf
CM - Torp
LW - JDS (slightly more in the ilk of a proper winger and EMC was pish in the week)

ST - Norm
ST - Simms

Shit kick off time, cold, bland watch lately and on sky. Dunno If I can even be arsed to go up.

From the Hull forum…



Forgot Hull is actually a really beautiful place. Real historic and cultural importance too thanks to the invention of “chip spice”, which changed the perceptions of a nation.

 

[AOM]

Cute

 

[AOM]

Should confiscate the PS5s and ground them.

I reckon Jamie Allen is more of a Men’s Health kind of guy.

Id say ‘the elegant masturbator’ is more of his evening read.

Cov isn't great but the lack of self awareness from someone who supports fucking Hull is staggering. Loads of those northern shithole towns and cities make Cov look like Monte Carlo.

i love how they always try and act like no one has been to hull ad seen the state of the place

I’m too much of a prude to know if that’s a real magazine or not, but that would certainly be a good name for Jack Rudoni’s new band.

Just googled it. Not sure you're meant to read it
Either way, just changed added one to my letter to Santa

Cov definitely is a shithole. However if you’re from Hull, you cannot say that because at least Coventry has some
interesting redeeming features. I have a list of towns and cities I would never live in on my phone. Hull is in the top two.

Bet the other is up north too... actually Luton might be looking shifty in the corner hoping no one notices it tbf.
