My GTA V arrived this morning and I have a job interview tomorrow at 9:30, the pain of not playing is torturous.
 
The map is so much bigger than San Andreas, I read it's meant to be larger than the Red Dead Redemption, San Andreas & GTA4 maps combined.

As long as there's lots of little one-horse towns in the middle of nowhere. They were the best part of San Andreas.

Is it true that German football clubs, and Bundesliga clubs specifically, pay for the transport of their fans to Away matches..?

So the Beeb say.
 
Don't know but wouldn't surprise me at all.

Yes, it is apparently true. They certainly make attending Away matches cheaper. They're cheaper than the PL in any case.

On another subject, Tom. If you remember me going on about the Martin Atkinson decision, and I wondered why the Arsenal player [Sagna] wasn't sent off. I looked up the parameters for deciding on whether a player who fouls another doesn't get sent off, in that situation. 1] The attacking player [Altidore] must be heading towards the goal - I think he was, wasn't he..? He certainly wasn't heading towards his own goal, and if he was heading towards the corner flag, he was being pushed there. 2] Was the incident stopping a genuine scoring opportunity..? I would say that if he hadn't been tackled he would have been through on goal - a clear opportunity.

Send the defender off, in my opinion.
 
Just heard a Saints fan come onto Sunday's post match 606 phone-in
[Listen Again facility]. He talked quite positively, saying we were better, and both Kelly Cates and Ian Wright were making positive noises to his points. Then Cates asked him where he thought Saints would finish, and he um'd and ah'd, and tried to be fair - and finally suggested 13th to 14th. Hmm, some improvement. Even Cates cited Wanyama's recent comments, and she suggested that Saints were going in the right direction. I think so too.

Actually, most of the programme has been about diving, and it has been quite good too. Ian Wright always comes out with something interesting.
 
Dougie Freedman can't have much more time left either. Thought everyone said they were going up...
