Gaming addict, mostly Football Manager, some other games at which I'm absolutely awful.

Football, Football Manager and books. That's about it really.

Thread of my reading in 2025

I'll include both fiction, which I read hard copy or kindle, and non-fiction for which I primarily use audible

All posts will be spoiler-free
Exciting times in the final test as we wait to find out if England will lose by an innings or just by ten wickets

I like Nuno and they seemed really unlucky tonight but...

It would be glorious if Nuno was sacked by Forest after losing to West Ham, then sacked by West Ham after losing to Forest in the same season

4-3-3?

Karlsson on the bench and no Aouchiche? Could read something into that after Lutz's interview yesterday
The Dons!

Usual captain dilemma - tempted to captain Rice tbh

Also tempted to bring Anderson and Stach in for Wirtz and Eketiké

Oh jeez, got to feel sorry for Potts. Lamb to the slaughter here

Clearly rusty af and bowling to the most in-form aggressive batter of the series who has just completed his third ton

Good old completely pointless snicko

This sounds a lot like the start of a process, whereas you'd have thought a well-run club would already have the options identified - it wasn't like this was unforeseeable

Interesting mention of wanting more Scottish signings. Big change of approach
Sporting Director Lutz Pfannenstiel spoke to RedTV on our search for a new manager.

Was this filmed in Randy Marsh's room?

Still applies
This is holding true, particularly the challenge to people assuming INEOS knew what they were doing

Of course, it might eventually work out

Maresca to Man Utd?

Absolutely fucking brainless from Smith. Could see it coming a mile off

Oh wow, Aberdeen has sacked Jimmy Thelin

Such a shame after that initial amazing period and the cup

Harry Wilson's goal is another justification for delaying the on-field offside flags and allowing the tight call to play out, and another excellent use of VAR... if it would just speed the fuck up

Lol, no-one needed the snicko and it still shows the spike against the wrong frame

England shite as per

So President Trump, what was it about the country with the world's largest oil reserves which prompted you to breach international law and abduct its president and first lady?

Joan Garcia is having an absolute stormer here against his former club. He's the only reason Espanyol aren't winning this comfortably

Checking my betting record for 2025 and loving this. 12 months of making football more interesting and I'm a little better than breaking even

Appreciate any feedback from #fm24 users trying this - www.fmscout.com/i-25-26-real...

Any issues with the editor file? Previously I've had issues with similar files where european coefficients were screwed up or promotion / relegation didn't work. Any experience with this file?

Sky started the ad break in the Palace Fulham game when Liverpool Leeds half time started ffs 😂

Having given up on #fm26, any recommendations for #fm24 edits and start-date-amendments would be very welcome
Are any fan sites providing #fm24 megapacks which edit the game world to the start of the 25/26 season?

If someone could figure out how to amend the game start date that'd be amazing
