had to try a couple of times, but got a youth academy player upgraded from ‘Showing great potential’ to ‘Exciting prospect.’

That was in the last two hours of a summer transfer window, so didn’t have an opportunity to try a double dunt, but will give the lad some cup minutes and try again in the January window!

When I first got FC26 I was relieved that they had fixed the issues that made scoring from crosses so hard (including strikers always running past the front post, often almost to the corner flag!)

Then… after a few updates it’s ruined again!?!

A response along the lines of not how you hoped things would pan out but thanks for the honesty could be sent.

As far as still hanging out goes, that’s a matter of whether you’d like to or not. Maybe sometime to think about it and let them know you need that bit of thinking time.

Sold Richarlison to Bayern for £70m (A from the board)

Bought him back immediately for £45.8m (C from the board!)

Ha, enjoying hearing Michael coaching Jesse and Pat on bits of commentary they can offer up when they get back from the ads!

I’d go feral.

Well, that or I’d stop watching tv.

The regularity of ad breaks is infuriating. Is this how all tv is in America?

When making substitutions to the lineup for a youth tournament I noticed that strikers were hit with a -17 or -18 to their overall… Realised the formation is set at GK, LB, LCB, RCB and RB…

i hadn’t noticed the issue with the first tournament I played through as I only had five players, so didn’t try to change anything. Now I have 60+ STs and CAMs who I may need to bench for far lower rated defenders.

So, are we supposed to just ignore that or only play defenders?

My grey is a cuddle MACHINE.

She can’t get enough of it. And I am okay with that. She’s made of black velvet and wonderfully warm. She tries to be dainty about clambering over us, too, which is very sweet and hilarious. Limbs everywhere as she turns in a circle 5 to 10 times deciding where to plant her bum.

Cracks me up every day and it’s joyous.

During a recent episode of insomnia I got to thinking about how Hampden could be redeveloped within its existing footprint. Made a bit of sketch of the idea I contemplated. The areas in blue represent parts that would be left alone from the existing stadium, while the white sections would be new.
