I've two more viewings on Saturday one of them needs gutting but is pretty cheap, I can do most of the easier stuff/manual labour myself and get the gas/electrics done by guys from work so that's no bother. Not sure I want to live in a building site mind. The other needs a bit of tarting up but is liveable for now, but isn't as nice as the first. Think the real issue is my current living situation rather than being annoyed at losing out on a house. It's awkward as fuck

I'm annoyed at the estate agents. There were two bidders in the running according to them, and the deadline was 12pm on Tuesday for best and final bids. I rang at 11.30 and put in the best offer by 1k. Then because I hadn't heard anything I rang on Wednesday afternoon and they said the vendors were happy with both bids and they were being considered. This morning I get a call and there is a mystery bid of 10k more than mine, almost as if it didn't come in before the deadline for best and final offers. Also I'm living in a rented house with my ex gf, so I am kind of in a fucking rush to get out. Soz

I mean legally they shouldn't have even told me what he bid, but I asked and they did, says it all about estate agents tbh. Initially there was me and a young couple bidding, I beat them by 1k but both offers were put to the vendor, then literally last minute (best and final offers by 12pm) this fucking helmet comes in and bids 10k more. Hope it bankrupts him and he has to make his other half work the streets,

Some daft cunt come in and offered 10 grand over my house bid, I was top bidder by 1000. Whoever he is has fucked it, it needs 10 grand spending on it and even then will only be worth 5 grand more than he paid. Hope it's a fucking money pit, the prick.

The last wedding I was at there was loads of drugs on the go, everyone was fucking off to the loo every 5 minutes to do lines or take MDMA. There was a constant rolling operation going on outside. One of the best parties I have ever been to. Nobody smoked any cigars though. Marriage lasted less than a year anarl

We don't need the money from selling him. Why sell him, then have to replace him if we go up? Good goalkeepers are pretty hard to find

I'm going to sound like a knob here, but I played keeper to a quite decent level. Krul is easily our best keeper, watching football generally and watching keepers is very different. He needs to stay or be replaced.

Seems like I might have bought my first house, had to up my bid 3 grand. Is it normal to shit yourself at this point?

Wilshere is easily England's best player when playing well, think he was a gamble worth taking. Barkley is a mystery to me, wouldn't have taken him. I would have fucked off Sturridge as well. The selection points to a pretty obvious 442 with a diamond midfield and no wingers IMO so that explains the no room for Townsend

If we assume Rafa is going to play 4-2-3-1 then I think we can easily stick with what we have up top. If ever there was a season not to buy an aging player that will stop younger players getting game time it must be this one. We seem to have loads of central midfielders but I wouldn't rate any that highly and some are downright shite. I have been to quite a few championship games this season with my Boro supporting mates, you need people who are aggressive and mobile in central midfield and defenders who are a stable 6/7 out of 10 each week, good in the air and like a battle. The league is a lot more physical than the prem and the standard of refereeing is diabolical, players get no protection.

"He is just in the shower mate, then I am dropping him at the pub for a couple" I find out tomorrow if my bid for a house is accepted and I can move out of this awkward situation, best and final offers are a fucking mine field like. I could go quite a bit further than I have but the house needs a fair bit of work so I don't want to bankrupt myself for a fixer upper. I lost out on the first place I bid on by 500 quid, if the estate agents let me know I would have gone higher, the bellends.

Sheff Wed never turned up and Real defended really well. Thought Zidane had fucked it when he took Kroos off mind.
-
Championship playoff and champions league finals today, want Sheff Wed and Atletico to win personally but could easily see it go the complete other way.

they are trying to figure out how likely you are to be offed by a pissed off subordinate. No idea

Nort East Tonight were doing a report outside my school when I was a kid, I was in the background of the report having a boot bag fight with my mate, regional TV-tastic

Congratulations dude

Austin has been injured since his second game for Southampton and Ings has been injured pretty much all season, they haven't not been getting a game, and we would have Bob hope of signing either. The only one I would want out of the rest is Carrick but he could deffo find another prem club if needs be.

Gunna put my first offer in on a gaff this afternoon. It's already got "numerous bids above asking price" according to the totally nice and not at all pressuring estate agent. First question when I went to see it was "what's your maximum?" About 6 inches love, how tight is your twat?

Decent full backs aren't that easy to find either
-
Aye that's what I was leaning towards

Foreign leagues move games to help their teams progress, we move games to make Sky happy with fuck all regard given to European performance. Other leagues teams prioritise cup competitions as they have a chance of winning them, whereas they don't usually have a chance of winning the league (Spain, Germany and Italy are becoming monopolies). English teams prioritise finishing in the top four because of the money it brings, fucking Man Utd sat out a cup competition all together a few years back! There is also a lack of good scouting and coaching in England with regards to necessary evils of the game that are required to do well in Europe, taking the ball to the corner, tactical fouls, even as simple as good defending and staying in games to give yourself a chance.

Worried to ask what TS14 stands for?

Aye I could move out tomorrow mate, but my name is on the lease so I need to make sure she has someone ready to move in or I will be paying two rents. And I cba paying another deposit etc while I am waiting to buy a place.

Clear as mud that cheers chaps! Just gunna have to lump it until it comes off aren't I?

The dog likes me loads more than it likes her, but she is staying with my parents for a couple of weeks anyway. The mortgage advisor said 3 months is average for FTB, hope it isn't fucking 6! Cheers for the help gents
