What a shite game of football that was

Fuxache. Gambled my fpl transfers on Arsenal CS and Rice set pieces. Had a 'mare of a month

Sub-50k 24 hour peak for #fm26 Huge yikes. Is there now genuine concern for the long-term future of the franchise? steamdb.info/app/3551340/...

Aouchiche and Armstrong at 6... it's a bold strategy, Cotton You'd expect we're going to be defending deep for most of this game

This looks so much better than the previous shambles, so kudos But why is OPPDA so high? I assume it's calculated different to IRL? Also, Everton seem to have 10 men but no red card in the events... Maybe an injury with subs exhausted? Third - Spurs lost 3-0 but are going up the table?

Thoughts on the latest #fm26 patch? Worth playing yet?

NEW #FM26 BLOG POST! In this lengthy post, I give my thoughts about the current state of Football Manager 26, the community, and the future of the series.

#FM26 | Lokeren - season 2025/2026 coffeehousefm.com/fmrensieblog...

Love that Harry Wilson goal. Absolutely beautiful

Scotland's world cup scheduling is going to lead to some interesting political discussions about licensing and whether bars can stay open

Absolute mess of an fpl week

And on for an innings loss. Embarrassing

Only kidding. No fucking chance do we draw with Morocco

My prediction for Scotland's World Cup Group: We'll lose to a fired-up Haiti 1-0 in the opening game, fluke a 0-0 or 1-1 against a far superior Morocco side meaning we go into the Brazil game with "hope" - a win sees us through. Hanley will concede a first minute pen, get s/o and we'll lose 4-0

The next time I feel imposter syndrome (in about 5 mins) I'll remember that the most powerful people in the world did *this* and feel just fine about myself, thank you very much #WorldCupDraw

I'm not even watching and the cunt's very existence is annoying me Inventing the "Kiss the Ring Award" is just par for the course these days

Anyone played with the new #fm26 beta patch yet? Any feedback?

As if international football weren't bad enough, Donald fucking Trump is going to make it exponentially worse

🍿LIVE NOW🍿 We're declaring the weekend🥳 with our final Push For Partner Stream👀 We've got videos introducing our next saves💾, the culmination of Season 3 in 🇳🇴in our #FM26 save, your movie reviews🎬, great music🎶, trivia and chat🗣️ www.twitch.tv/fmllama

Second best at batting, bowling and fielding But apart from that, guess England were ok #TheAshes

It's legitimately insane that this now attracts so little attention Not even a year in and this explicit racism is normalised Fuck's sake America. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

🚨LIVE NOW🚨 The PARTNER PUSH continues as we tackle some more #FM26 as well as making a couple of announcements about what's next for me on Twitch & YouTube www.twitch.tv/fmllama

#fm26 has been out "officially" for 4 weeks and I haven't played for 3 of them Game time includes whatever you call the time before 4 Nov Bit depressing really

Damn. Doubly gutted Josh King didn't nab that equaliser at the end there

Fulham so unlucky here. Clearly City are the better team but 5-1 feels very disproportionate

Between van de Ven, Josh King and Igor Thiago for my fpl team. Two in, one on the bench So far, I'm leaning towards benching van de Ven but none seem like big winning options for this gw

For me, this would be so, so much more important than shouts. Looking forward to that Also what's the added in-game stats? #fm26

🚨PARTNER PUSH🚨 We're LIVE on Twitch with an afternoon of #FM26 in 🇳🇴 as well as a blend of music and chat so smooth it's like swimming in a pool of caramel www.twitch.tv/fmllama

Hard not to feel sorry for this Vikings QB. Sack after INT after sack after INT Brutal

Red seems fair enough really Doubt that'll be the only red in the game, at this rate

Ref is making a rod for his own back with this spate of early bookings. Hasn't really stamped any authority on this game

I'd be checking some betting records for unusual money on Paqueta getting a red He was absolutely desperate to get sent off there

04:00 to 04:59 is the 5th minute, ffs I know it's not important

Wonder if Szoboszlai trying to burst one of the pre-match bubbles and missing will prove prescient for the game

Nketiah took so long to take that shot that Shaw nearly slid way past him - the ball ended up hitting Shaw in the arse Nketiah could have just stopped and let him slide past. Or, you know, shoot in the 4 eons before Shaw got there

Does that count as a missed pen for #fpl purposes? Mateta's pen?

Jesus fucking christ Welcome to the concept of "average" www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

For contrast, #fm24 didn't drop to 55k peak players until 6th October... this year Two years after the game was released Huge yikes for #fm26

This is a big yikes, right? A 35% drop in "peak 24h" live players within 3 weeks of release has to be unprecedented for an FM game? Such a shame what SI is doing to this game #fm26

Loved this More journalism and interviews like this please www.youtube.com/watch?v=foSD...

OK, maybe I need to give #fm26 a shot with the inevitable save

Absolutely shocking half of football, will take the 1-0 #StandFree

Aouchiche at 6? Or back to 4-2-3-1?

The same report shows disposables income has FALLEN by 0.2% per year since 2019...so, you know, this is better than that? "Budget will result in first rise in disposable income for 6 years". Headlines, man

I wish some defence would just push up when Arsenal do those deep free kicks where the players in the box start goalside and then run back Just all run out ahead of the group of players and play them off Obviously you'd only be able to do it once before Arsenal use a deep runner

"fans of 14th century history will have enjoyed seeing Pope on his way to Avignon" 😂😂

Very funny listening to Fara Williams repeatedly correcting Martin Keown on the Goal Shows. Started off uncertain but increasingly forthright

Here are my top 10 dogs carrying big sticks!

Is Alisson back tomorrow?

Thank fuck proper football is back this wkend. And no more internationals until March 🙏 For fpl purposes, is Gabriel legit out for months? I was going to transfer out Pope and I really don't want to take another -4
