    It is wee bit hypocritical of us to demand that they get -10 next season, after the fuss we made about it. However the League have a habit of kicking teams when they are already down, so why should they make an exception here. We have always protested that the wrong people are getting punished, the perpetrators, that have caused the situation, in the main get away scot free, hopefully with lighter wallets.

    Has anyone else read the books?

    I love the TV show, but they are poor in comparison, which is saying something

    One time in a Waterstones I found one and gave it a quick scan. It looks like the kind of book which tells a good story but has a really simple and unimaginative writing style. Sort of like Harry Potter.

    Apparently the sex scenes are really graphic, looking at George RR Martin I'd assume it's mostly his imagination rather than experience.

    I've just started reading book 1. It's set out so that each chapter is about a character. So the first chapter that I've just read is about Bran. The second Caitlin. Haven't read much of it yet though so can't really comment on what I think of it yet.

    Wonder what the chances are of them getting a 30 point penalty are like Luton did. One would assume they'd do all that CVA stuff properly (maybe they already have) but who knows...

    Read the first one (before watching the series), it's good but I wouldn't really say it's amazingly written. The best bit about it is the World that he has created, not surprising that it has done so well on TV. Also there is a list of characters and what houses they are in etc at the back which helps a lot. It's interesting enough that I will read the next one sometime.

    Dare I say the GoT world is perhaps more interesting and immersive than Middle Earth? They've both got nothing on Tamriel though.

    Need more Skyrim DLC. And the next game should be about Snow Elves, I got excited enough in the Dawnguard DLC. Well, and the Dwemer, and all that.

    Why the **** do they need a new stadium when they're going to be in the Championship next season. A new stadium should come when they are established in the PL.

    Seeing as any new Elder Scrolls or Fallout games will probably be years away, and for next gen consoles, that's a real ****ter.

    Well Elder Scrolls Online is the next thing. I don't think Fallout 4 should be too long after that.

    Yeah but I have no interest in MMORPGs, so I'll still be allowed to sulk.

    I've never played one before, but this does look good. The fact that you can go anywhere in Tamriel really excites me. Also it's set a long time in the past and Molag Bal is the main antagonist.

    Yeah but my internet is crap so it'd be a horrifying lag fest, on top of the fact that the general premise of MMORPGs just doesn't interest me. The massive open map sounds amazing, but I'd love to see that in an offline game WAY more than I would online. Molag Bal is neat though. More vampires?
