  1. I can't believe I hadn't seen this thread until now! One day I will have to list all of the Super Nintendo and Gameboy games (have a Super Gameboy adapter, so use my SNES to play those games) I have in boxes under my bed. It's brilliant stuff which I still like to play from time to time.
  2. Congratulations on 10,000 (quality) posts. What a mainstay! :o

  3. The ball-less FA? Hang on, isn't this a Premier League charge? I thought the FA and the Premier League were separate entities, unless someone can tell me otherwise? Also, the Ryman League Appeals Committee dealt with the AFC Wimbledon case. It seems that it comes down to whoever is in charge of the leagues to sort this business out. So it's a tad unfair to compare different decisions made by different bodies. I hope they're docked into relegation, though. As if they need the help...
  4. That's the spirit! There's a lot of rubbish that flies around trying to bring Rovers down these days, so I just try and avoid it when I can, which is undoubtedly doing wonders for my long-term health!
  5. Member number one. :o

  6. "THE ARM-WRESTLER GROWING RESTLESS AT ROVERS" It says that, but the article does not address the headline at all. There are no quote from Hughes and the hack suggests nothing of the sort. He just thinks Rovers is too small a club for him. There is no need to get upset at what people write about. Hughes will leave when the time comes for him to leave.
  7. Unless the only game you've watched them play was Blackburn at home. Ah well. I hope they go down!
  8. I found reading the forums and their descriptions quite amusing. I was actually laughing out loud at some of them. It's a Rovers board in joey deacon's vision, containing all of his trademarks. Amongst other things, there is: - A Manchester United forum, keeping in line with his thinking that United should be our main rival and obssessive hate club; - A forum dedicated to the analysis of Rovers fans, most notably dedicated to changing our general mentality; - A forum solely dedicated to talk of takeovers of BRFC, keeping in line of his position that the Walker Trust should no longer own the club (or "the Walkers", as he always puts it). Brilliant, brilliant stuff. The actual content of the board shows a message board descending into chaos, however.
  9. I may or may not have put my name in the game, but couldn't possibly remember, to be honest. I've put my name in at least a couple of these sorts of things anyway. Would like to get a copy one day, just to see if my name is in there.
  10. I loved these two quotes! * "Compare our attendances this season to Derby, Sunderland or even Norwich, and you have to question whether Birmingham supporters really deserve promotion" - Birmingham co-owner David Sullivan paves the way for the club's lowest attendance of the season in his programme notes for Sunday's game against Stoke. * "Stephen Clemence has been carrying an injury. What am I supposed to do? Wave a placard saying Clemence has got a knock? I think I deserve a bit more respect than that after what I've done here in 5½ years. The expectations here are quite unbelievable" - Steve Bruce responds, belatedly, to chants of 'You don't know what you're doing' during the match. What a happy club they sound!

  11. What a bunch of pushovers the referee appointers are! At least in Italy they accepted bribes (i.e. gifts) before carrying out the wishes of the more influential club officials. :ph34r:
  12. They seem to be taking the injury awfully well! We certainly don't take that sort of news very well at all. It's usually all doom and gloom.
  13. That was almost a good comeback. WoW is a game that interests me, and I have friends who play it, but it looks too expensive to play. I would never have the time to get my money's worth when uni is on either, so it's a no-go. Shame that.
  14. Bah. Just saw you bought a DS ages ago, so I edited my post a little above. Would agree that with the Wii the chances of it looking attractive to buy is slim. They have gone down the drain in terms of "realistic" sports games since the 64 from what I know of (I'm surprised to hear their capture of Madden) and for me a move to incorporate more of those sorts of games would be necessary to have a serious think about it. I wouldn't buy otherwise, unless they do a damn good job going in whatever direction they are going in. I wonder if they will ever go with the old sort of simplicity of earlier consoles in a couple of games or more, but obviously a lot more updated.
  15. Random caption competition (prize money absolutely nothing!). Ha! So what do you think about that one Blackburn Enders? I'm off down to the bright lights of London: West Ham! Fear the dizzy heights of relegation struggle!
  16. Martin O'Neill has acknowledged there is such a thing as "Fergie Time", judging by his latest comments. "I don't mind four minutes. I don't mind five, six or seven minutes. In fact there would be very few halves where I wouldn't expect at least three minutes, regardless of whether players have been treated or not. But there's absolutely no consistency, absolutely none at all. If a referee is saying it was to do with the substitutions, fine. But the next week, do it the same way. All I ask for is a bit of consistency and in this occasion he put up four minutes because he was at Old Trafford" - Martin O'Neill.
  17. I know I'm very late, but if you want [if anyone wants] to get a Nintendo product the time would be now. They are on an uphill roll at the moment and seem to be producing some attractive games again. I've only played about five minutes of a newer Nintendo product (newer than the 64, my last new Nintendo product, so I sort of follow your gaming timeline), but following the discussion and news and everything on it, they are becoming an attractive proposition again. I was impressed that Nintendo released a new version of Marios Bros. on the DS, based on the original concept. I hated the move to 3D worlds that have become too fashionable in the last few years, which really turned me off. But they seem to keep some games simpler now, especially on the DS. Mario Kart on the DS (which I played for a few minutes before my three year old cousin took it off me, thinking I didn't know how to play the game properly!) looked fairly cool too, incorporating courses from older versions and looking a clean and simple game from what I saw. That's just my impression anyway. I am holding out for a while until I buy a new generation console or handheld, due to a combination of things. Firstly I've bought enough Super Nintendo products to last me years in the last year. Secondly I don't get as much time to play them as I like when university is on, so a new purchase at the moment would be a bit of a waste. Plus I want prices to go down a bit. And I have enough PC games to occupy my time as it is. The Wii might be a really good buy down the track, depending on games. It's a bit too gimmicky at the moment, but is going in the right direction. You can download old games on it, but seeing as I have a Super Nintendo with just about all the games I want to have, there's not much point. There are only a select few Nintendo 64 games I want. Goldeneye, WCW/NWO Revenge, Mario Kart, Diddy Kong Racing, and a couple of others I forget.
  18. This transfer will be worth it, just to see Allardyce's reaction! Oh, and that being able to play football stuff too.
