Starting out unemployed with zero reputation is the best way to play the game imo.

Are all versions of CM as easy as the one I played ('08 maybe)?

It's fun to see the young hot shot players of the game breaking through in real life.

Unfortunately young Liverpool hot shot striker Craig Lindfield appears to be without a club atm. Young Chelsea hot shot Ben Sahar hasn't popped up on the radar but he's at Espanyol.

Saw Chelsea's young player Stich playing in the world cup, young Nilis too playing for Greece.

Ahhh, no, screw you guys, I'm not going down that path again....anyway the game was waaaay too easy.

Yeah you got it easy. When it became Football Manager it became easy. I think 06 07 08 are really easy.

Use the editor and they are great. Like playing football God.

Brother told me give this a look, didnt know DeNiro had a movie out last year, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0780511/ Great simple film, dare you not to get tired and emotional ...

I thought Football manager was a different game using the source code that was Championship Manager and competed with it. I was also under the impression that Football Manager was a tougher game than Championship manager Wouldn't be an authority on the whole thing now.

[LuckyLloyd]

Genuinely shocking the amount of people who seem to have been devoted players of Champo 01 / 02 and didn't twig that the game has an inbuilt flaw which renders fullbacks as part of a flat back four basically redundant. What the fuck like?

[eagle eye]

Ok, I've got it downloaded and everything is fine, it starts up and then I click new game and it asks me to insert the cd rom, I have MagicDisc and MagicISO, what do I need to do to get started?

[Teddie]

footie manager 2005 was the best.

Too drunk too read, remember you asking earlier what to do. If you are not sorted PM me and I will talk you through what to do.

I have vista and all I do is right click on the CM0102.iso file, select MagicISO > Mount CM0102.iso > and select the drive mount there.

It will work then, or at least it does fine for me.

The MagicISO seems to be my problem. I'm getting rid of it and trying a different one to see if it works. I don't get an option to mount CM0102.iso.

Try Daemon Tools Lite. It's great and very easy to use.

[Aya14]

it says no cameras, are they loose on that? SAMUEL FCUKING JACKSON is supposed to be there!

They are fairly lax just stick the camera in your pocket.

No idea, but I imagine the earlier the better. The crowds are huge so if you arrive too late you are likely to miss out on the better vantage points. Irrelevant though if you plan on following a few golfers around. I'd be surprised if Samuel Jackson isn't there, he is a huge golf fan and obviously he does a lot of charity work.

I haven't been to this in the previous years it has been on, I imagine it will be pretty tedious. Big crowds + only one golfer worth watching per fourball + nothing for them to play for doesn't sound like the greatest combo for the spectator. Still lets hope the weather is nice and it's enjoyable!

It is a fantastic event for the area though, all credit to J.P., he has done wonders with it.

Not really tedious the pro's try some ridic tough shots, pretty entertaining and some of the am's are just ridic.

[CHDad]

Ok

[UraiseIfold]

Brother told me give this a look, didnt know DeNiro had a movie out last year, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0780511/ Great simple film, dare you not to get tired and emotional ...

This film is beautiful. DeNiro is on top top form. Plays a a character were not accustomed to seeing him play - very refreshing. World class acting throughout.

It completely slipped under the radar. Was in and out of the cinema within a fortnight. I've seen a dozen or so films this year, and this has been my favourite.

I think everyone should give it a whirl.

[eagle eye]

Yeah I downloaded Gizmo Central and it worked a treat. Very handy tool. Thanks for all the help and suggestions folks.

ARRRRRGGGGGHHHHhh

I fancied Murray for his first grand slam this year. He is playing the best so far.
Tried to back him on betfair last night, wouldn't allow me to back in running.

Fair enough I said. Somebody on boards will lay me.



Beat: Totally messed up the times zones, all the QF matches are over, odds obv worse
Beat:Fed out, that obv shortens everything




Still looking to back him, if any bodies interested.
$100@7/2

I'm sorry for this odd request because it might get to you too urgent but it's just the situation of things right now, We're presently stuck in Scotland , we came down here on vacation. we were robbed, worse of it is that bag, cash and credit cards was stolen at GUN POINT, it's such a crazy experience for us and we need help with flying back home, the authorities are not being 100% supportive but the good thing is we still have our passports but don't have enough money to get on a plane back home, please we need you to loan us some money till we get back home to refund it back.

Thanks

That he got through Soderling i cant make a strong case against him anymore especially at the prices and the underdog tag will sit well with him if he gets Nadal in the final. Nadal's lost too many sets so far against lesser opposition. Yep every chance now imo. GL

Anybody know anything about recent betfair promos,

I had a decent chunk of my BF bankroll tied up in the F1 and Shumacher.
I withdrew some of the remainder and kept a bit for the WC.
Lost a bit on the first few games, and the rest is tied up in goal scorer, winner etc

You'd need WU and the Cops at wherever the WU they want to collect from to get involved.
You could have some fun trying to string them along, get a phone number and speak to Joyce etc.

That sounds like too much work this early in the day...lol

Think i will just throw off a quick " i went to WU and because of all the scams they need to know what office you will be collecting it from, sorry for this delay but they are very security concious" obv they wont tell me, may take that line and see where it goes...i have an image in my head of Joyce being a black man holding todays newspaper in front of him...

Joyce, i called into the post office, i dont know much about transferring money, never done it before, but i went to WU and because of all the scams they need to know what office you will be collecting it from, sorry for this delay but they are very security concious, i dont know why ? I told them what had happened to you and i needed to get money to you straight away, so sorry for this again. Send me the name of the office in Scotland you will be collecting it from and i will get this sorted out as soon as possible.

Pepper spray most definitely will incapacitate someone, a mate of mine was once sprayed by a bouncer and he was destroyed for a good half an hour.

Yeah, seriously, it's not the Gardai's job to mete out justice as and when they feel like it, beating an already subdued person is a pretty clear abuse of authority imo. The guy is obviously a drunken moron, but the penalty for that is to be decided in court, and is most definitely not a punishment beating.

I hate this type of attitude. Nit picking around incidents like this is nothing more than childish whining. Sorry man, but I come across people that espouse the above attitudes regularly enough and they are usually the type of people who would be likely to get drunk and act the fucking cunt when the mood strikes them.

The guy in the above picture was way out of line. So he got an extra smack, he'll live. The Gard locked up the situation on his own, and deserves credit.

[Wreck]

Well, I can only imagine what the Guard is saying there," i told you to get on your knees", reasonable force imo.

If this was the case, reasonable force would be pressing the baton into the back of the knee to force him down. From the pictures (I know they don't tell the full story) it looks like the garda just put him against the wall and smacked him pretty much full force with the baton. From the eye witness account on boards, plenty of people who were there also felt the garda went way ott.

Edit: LOL @ punishment beating, ever see the spanish cops in action ? afaik, that is how they say hello !

So what? In Saudi Arabia you can be whipped for kissing, in Bulgaria you have to bribe police to give back passports, doesn't mean it should happen here. It looks to me like the garda beat him with the baton as punishment for struggling, hence "punishment beating".

Police brutality is one of my bug bears, I'm fully prepared to admit that. All I'm saying is that if I have my hands up against the wall and someone hits me with a baton in the back of the leg and I have pictures to prove it I will 100% be taking it further.

And I can fully assure you I don't get drunk and act the cunt, and kind of resent the implication that I do. I don't think I've ever spoken to a garda for anything other than to ask directions. I will admit to have been involved in a few drunken scuffles, but in all honesty I've never started anything.

All I'm saying is that if I'm a drunken scumbag who strips down to his boxers, attacks a cop and tries to potentially drown him, I then get maced, thereafter the cop then hits me with a baton in the fleshy part of my leg and I have pictures to prove it I will 100% be delighted to have gotten away so lightly.
