Wow that's fucking stupid. I can't say I'm surprised because most CODs have shite single player nowadays, and most people only play COD for multiplayer/zombies. But it seems a bit obviously lazy to scrap the campaigns, especially when Black Ops 1 and 2 had good campaigns (Black Ops 3's was shite and I don't know why it's part of the Black Ops series). Looks like Black Ops is just a way to brand it as made by the most popular COD developers. Stupid friends peer pressuring me into getting a game I didn't really want because they're all going to be playing it. Blackout does look quite good though, I didn't play the beta because of my hand shite though.

I haven't enjoyed a CoD since Modern Warfare 2... but Black Ops 4 is something I'm getting because all of my friends played the Blackout Beta and they've all said it is the best Battle Royale game they've ever played. Plus you get CoD singleplayer (meh)/multiplayer/zombies). Biggest negative I see is whether or not you'll be able to even get the extra DLC without buying the special season pass version. Which is stupid and I don't know why Activision would try to do something like that - but also fuck giving Activision more money.

I’m so fucking shite at shooting.

“A freedom to choose our own path” sounds nice, but it doesn’t really mean anything. Nor does it explain or justify the negatives that come from either a hard Brexit or a soft Brexit that ties us to EU regulations we have no influence over if we aren’t in the EU. Economic instability also doesn’t make for “freedom.” Also the fact that some industries might export less to Europe doesn’t change the fact that most British exports are to Europe. You can argue it’s not true. But it is true, so you’d be wrong. You could argue it doesn’t have to be to Europe. But the EU countries are our biggest trading partners.

If I get the all clear from the doctor that I can play video games tomorrow, my next stop is to go buy this.

The latest excerpts from King Kev's latest book re: his final days as Newcastle manager are very interesting. Paints Mike Ashley as either incompetent or dishonest, you get a really bad impression of Dennis Wise, and Keegan looks pretty believable & to have a lot of integrity as the arbitration panel sided with him.

That’s basically right. We signed him from Charlton and had him play with our kids as a CB. Very highly rated, but the first team opportunities that were available to him were mostly at RB. I was not expecting him to end up ahead of Matip and Klavan in the summer. But preseason happened and Klavan’s been replaced... by Matip because he’s jumped ahead of them. Very impressed with him this season and I hope he can keep this form up.

I wouldn't have laughed. I think Flanagan's lack of finesse was there for all to see - but he always played with a shitload of passion for us. Worked his arse off and stuck to the basics but played with his heart on his sleeve. On Robertson's first match for us I immediately noticed his quality on the ball - something you'd never consistently see from Flano. On another note, I never really liked Gomez as a fullback - weirdly bad at defending crosses for a natural CB out wide. Not the best delivery either... but plenty of pace. But this season he's been a revelation, looks great defending crosses and his pace and strength is used to great effect. I think if he keeps this form up and stays fit, he's better for us than Lovren.

Lol Flanagan was never as good as Robertson, not even comparable. Flanagan was a yard dog people liked because he was Scouse and got stuck in. Nowhere near as good as Robertson going forward.

What I was saying is you empty Trent's pockets and threre's Neymar with his outrageous fee. And Andy's got Mbappe in his with his own ridiculous fee. Not bad for us.

What's the combined value of what's in their pockets from last night?

Our starting fullbacks are so fucking good.

Yeah still fighting Blue Moon

I think I’m on the 8th mission.

This was a brilliant suggestion.

I haven't owned a FIFA game in years, but I'll probably buy this once I can use my left hand again because we're a 5 star side in this.

Yup, some NES/SNES games on my laptop for whenever I'm traveling. Love them.

I’m really REALLY into turn based games mate. Nah I sliced my palm open and severed a tendon and needed surgery, it is shite.

I fucked anything in that game I could, don’t you worry

It looks good, but unfortunately I won't be getting it as its a PS4 exclusive. I've been playing XCOM lately as I can (just about) play with one hand.

Is Burnley Mourinho’s last chance saloon, do you think?
