Forget all that, can we talk about boxing a bit more?

I don’t think we have enough threads dedicated to it.

Why don’t we have more threads about meeting for a drink, then in drink meeting thread, then after meeting threads RB? Then maybe a few more in jokes about what happened in the meetings?

Code red! Code red! Code red!

MLG is down as a registered abuser on Saints web. This is like he is on the free transfers list - make your move Pap!

Mid-season signings are fraught with danger…

I just wish they’d bring FM out on the Vita again. It wasn’t without issues but I’m sure they could iron a lot of those out with another run at it. It was essentially FM Classic in your hand and thus far more fully-featured than the mobile version.

The mobile versions are getting better, they offer cross save now. Which is a pretty good feature.

Think the problem with Vita, is it’s a small market. It’s a cracking little console, but there’s just not a big enough market to make it worthwhile. It’s a real niche product now.

*Sorry, I’m always going to stick up for mobile games :lou_lol:

Sure, but there’s still an install base of over 4m Vitas in Europe. Plus you’re looking at £30 per sale as opposed to £6.99.

Is it any good or just a rehash of the old game with a new skin and a couple of tweeks?

Don’t know

From what I can tell it looks the same but you can make someone who looks like you want to look like to stand on the side line and shout stuff, easier to use set pieces and you can make a cup or league with other weirdos online.

Oh, OK

Is that it or is it worth it?

Don’t know

p.s. I soooo missss MLG trying to do the hard sell on it. I would then say how crap it looks, end up buying it, hate it for a while, install 3rd patch around Feb, and then spend the rest of the year either playing it or in rehab.

You are the Pete Doherty of virtual reality gaming - if you’re going to live life that far on the edge, Toke, don’t fall off.

* Bletch is answering the question he suspects that Toke meant to ask, because presumably someone, somewhere will have played it.

I don’t know about that Raleigh Boy, but there’s just not enough songs about squash…

MLG spotted in the wild? :lou_lol:

They can work out though like me :lou_lol:

When you say “anybody”, can I invite myself and collect the points?

Yes.*

*Please bear in mind that I have no authority to administer said points.

Where are the points redeemable?

It’ll be me that sorts these things out, generally. I create badges which confer points when people post the next time. ant has no right to be offering points, btw. We’ll be having a “chat” at the pub (bletch, bring the boltcutters).

But I was just a naive 28-year old when that post was written!

These days I’d have offered 2000 points.

What is it about 16 year old Willie that caught your interest MLG?

His haircut.

Good point MLG, the regens on FM are like if Nicky Clarke took over the running of the world and decided to go a bit mental. 9/10 player have some mental hair cut usually involving a Mohawk or the overuse of highlights. It’s like if the fashion guy on Lorraine or This Morning has been asked his opinion of how footballers hair cuts will look in 4 or 5 years.

The is particauly strange as the CM hairy bear, brown T-shirt guy Miles or whatever at FM has had more of less the same haircut since the 90’s.
