    Pipboy is also Falliout76, but whatever.

    There’s quite a few images of that already online, in a Newcastle kit, I had it as an avatar myself years back so not sure I buy the idea anybody painstakingly coloured it in, just sounds like more typical internet bullshit to me.

    That said it’s a decent game. Bethesda are supposed to be behind an epic series due soon, Starfield.

    Starfield has definitely got my interest, the small cinematic at E3 looked great

    Hang on! That's a bit unfair.
    I did colour it as it happens! Quite why, I don't ****ing know as it turns out!
    Not everything you read on the internet is bullshit Roland!

    I am not prepared to answer that without seeing Nick’s next photo.

    I suspect it’s just the usual delaying tactic in the hope that they can reach a solution over arbitration.

    Presumably they would much rather reach a settlement through or during arbitration over the ODT as then Ashley would drop the Anti-Competition stuff. The latter has far wider ranging consequences for them. With ODT they just have to let club sale go ahead.


    In other words post your Donkey Kong GIF.

    As stated there's a good reason for pressure

    So obfuscation yet again. Is the 12th final? Or can they keep kicking the can?

    I would think that times run out now... It would appear we need transparency to get a fair hearing.

    That's concerning given they tried their best to get the chairman on the arbitration panel removed.

    Well, yes, if it plays out behind closed doors we'll lose. Any amount of whistle blowing won't change that.

    Christ Twitter is showing what a bunch of clowns some of our "fans" are. No wonder no-one takes us seriously

    Be glad when this is all over one way or another

    we should be moaning about transfers or the lack of!

    There's no money without the takeover.. We can't even afford willock, so I feel its best to hope that all changes and then worry about loans and another 14 years of Ashley after that.

    I have to be honest it sounded at the time like the scales have been rigged for arbitration.

    I was hoping it wouldn't get that far, but it would seem its going to and that means I have less confidence in a positive outcome.

    There's of course the possibility it's all part of just drawing awareness to the case to make it less easy for the panel to **** us over. Just the threat alone might be enough.

    We really need government intervention, but it won't come.
