Beefy's Corner - The Off-Topic Chat Thread

I'm a little uncomfortable with the fact that I keep coming across Telegraph articles which I actually enjoy, but this one genuinely is hilarious: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/10049454/Dont-make-fun-of-renowned-Dan-Brown.html

 

Sorry to hear that, what were you doing Lapras?

 

Good singing now, would have been a great signing a few years ago. Still, Romanian captain, 31, free transfer.

 

Andy Carroll pulls out of England squad. So who's it going to be to replace him? Or will Roy take no one at all?

 

Shame Lamberts form tailed off with that back injury at the season, although to be fair if he scored a few double hat-tricks he still wouldn't be picked...

 

Over the course of the season they've swapped Carroll for Sturridge + £3m. Not bad business, really.

 

Excellent - he didn't deserve to be in the squad in the first place.


LAMBERT FOR ENGLAND!

 

I was comparing the price they bought him for with the price they're going to sell him for.

 

88% of Rickie Lambert's passes were made in the opposition's half this season - a higher percentage than any other player.

Stat.

 

Marketing for a publishers, is very interesting and there's some fascinating books that have been published recently. But such is the fun of being a temp. I applied for a permanent role there on Friday, but I hope the person who is recruiting isn't a Southampton fan, as I mentioned in my cover letter about running the Pompey Ladies Facebook page.

 

So, Manchester United are supposedly changing their badge to this...

They're not gonna decide on a candidate based on their favourite football team...at least, I'd hope they won't....if anything, that would help you in your application. Bitches (employers) love extra activities.

 

Well the new Xbox (Xbox One) sucks, all games must be downloaded to the HD. If you want to play the game on another console you have to pay!

 

Agreed, I think it's a shocking concept.

 

No they're not, that's a post on reddit somewhere. Some guy made badges for competition and the story of United changing badges gets rehashed every year with his design. I'll find it when I'm not meant to be revising

 

Always on Kinect as well, Kinect has to be connected or the Xbox One won't start.

 

In all honesty, I'd rather spend my money on a new gaming PC than get a PS4/Xbox One.

 

Same here.

 

My childhood was spent Sim Racing with a steering wheel and pedals for my computer rather than playing COD and all that **** I can guarantee the best games I've ever played have been on PC (Team Fortress 2 *cough*)
