Ordinarily I try not to blog about football but… I couldn’t help it. I know it’s a bit macabre but I wanted to see the pictures and because we missed the actual match on Sky, went channel hopping to try and find footage of it. Nope, none of it.

Would we haveContinueContinue reading “football 2.0”

10 most important games of all time
Civilisation, Tetris, Mario, Sim City or Sensible Soccer? CNet’s top 10. Personally I have an addiction issue right now with 24 the Game (PS2) and Football Manager 2007 (Mac). Having wiped the board with Liverpool (with Dimitar Berbatov as my 30 goals a season leading scorer) using FM 2005 [5 premierships, 2 FA Cups andContinueContinue reading “10 most important games of all time”
