I know what you mean, and will probably wholeheartedly agree with you if things take a turn for the worst, but as it stands were doing well and picking up points (admittedly with little real pressure). If we can keep that up, we'll make any problems we encounter later in the season less significant. If we can just get to January without the wheels coming off...

Aye, true enough. I have a lot of time for Lascelles, and he'll benefit enormously in terms of his self belief if he's able to guide us through a high pressure scenario as the season goes on (not that I want one!) They're young, but the more they experience now, the better they'll be. They've experienced winning and the pressure of staying at the top with last season, and now they'll have a different experience from this season. Either way though, it's nice to be able to believe in them.

It might well do, but as long as we stay up, it's probably a good thing for them to experience.

Yeah it's annoying that we could well be the first team to drop points against them. They'll either be shot for confidence, in which case they're an easy 3 points, or they'll be fucking desperate and playing like it's a cup final. We all know which it'll be... See also: Derby County.

I wonder this quite often. Crowds seem to be able to influence refs for many teams - except ours!

I suppose we're all console peasants at the end of the day. I was tempted by the PC version but it's not out until the end of next month I think. Crazy in this day and age. Our clan has recently brought in someone who has completed Trials of the Nine. It's kind of like buying a high profile football player He's going to be popular over the next few weeks.

Dammit Why did you guys go for it on Xbox then? The first one was just PS4 wasn't it? Unless I'm misremembering.

Not sure there's anything wrong with this one mind The club trying to do something good in the community.

Assume you're on XBox as well? If not, I'll happily join you when I get back from work and you can carry me to victory

I've got 1/3 of the ratking thing done. Haven't really looked at it properly, and not sure where that 1/3 came from. I need to do Stuarm still. Clans are actually pretty good - the one I'm in has completed all of it's weekly stuff, so I've got quite a lot of reward from it. Plus it's an extra milestone to get rewarded for - contribute 5000 clan XP each week. Looking forward to hitting 280 to open the mods up as you say. Will maybe try to make it tonight.

Fish, what in fuck is wrong with your computer?

Nice, good job guys. I managed tobget to 276 tonight since I passed nightfall for the first time and got the rewards. Still have the stupid pulse rifle. I'm trying to pull together enough people for the raid. I'm in a clan but I prefer to play with people I know. Have you tried trials of the 9 yet? I gather people are ddos attacking other players ffs...

Thanks for the advice on levelling guys, finally managed to get to 274. Can now do the raid I guess. The downside is that I got given a level 283 pulse rifle. I hate those and judging by the numbers it's gonna be with me for some time. I also have a 273 sidearm which I hope I can move on soon. Getting the hang of exotic management now. What are your levels?

Our upcoming games look like games we can get something out of as well. Even Liverpool.

Aye, true enough. I'm prepared to believe Joselu might just have been trying too hard yesterday tbh. Positionally he was great, just let down by finishing. Either way, we're scoring goals.

Genuinely don't think we're that bad a team anyway. I was convinced last year that the team as it stood would be capable of avoiding relegation and we have actually strengthened. Merino as an alternative to Shelvey is not what I expected, that's a huge bonus. Colback isn't in the side. The defence actually looks better than at any time I can remember. Joselu isn't great but imagine if we did have that decent standard of striker. Has to be a priority for January.

Aye true. It's just that it all hangs on Rafa though.

I just hope we can keep him until then...

Can't believe we've won 3 in a row like Rafa is honest to fuck the best thing that's happened to this club in a decade.

At least Wolfy believes what he's saying. That puts him above most politicians.

Fucking hell. Aside from the fact that the US justice system apparently just flat out doesn't care about police shooting black men, what kind of psycho do you have to be in order to actively want to kill someone in the way this officer did. Clearly he either is actually psychotic, or he thinks black people are subhuman. On shit like this, BLM is absolutely right to campaign for police officers to wear bodycams etc. Problem is, would it even make a difference anyway? The dashcam didn't seem to help here... how fucking depressing.

You should post in politics more then. Although I guess we're pretty UK focused. Might be good to hear an Aussie perspective though. I've been a bit surprised by your posting recently as prior to the NK developments I thought you only posted on here while hammered

I didn't mean you're anything like him on here, I just meant that he gets them very worked up for someone "on their side". Was an insult to him than rather than a dig at you

Haha I saw you attracting attention actually. I think you did pretty well all said and done Was gonna ask if you were dangermows actually, he seems to wind them up more than most.

Which one are you?
