TOTS starts tomorrow and no-one appears to be posting here! Is that a sign that that game is dead?
I've not played in about a week. Done the SBC, will open the packs I've saved later, will likely not get anything. Might do Dalglish, but I have little motivation to actually play.

It is basically Diana coverage. I was 9 then and it baffled me back then too.
I'm about to go downstairs, if my cartoons are cancelled like they where for Diana I'm going to be raging.

I really don't get the mindset of people who get upset by this.
Even if you ignore the many, many, many examples of his racist behaviour, it's a 99 year old man, who you didn't know, who has died. Shame for his family, but that should be it.
Yet you know there'll be scores of folk outside the Palace crying like they knew him because Barbara here met him in 1992 and he was a lovely man. f**k off Barbara.

It's a party for people who know nothing about politics, and care even less.
Still not seeing how it's different from the tories?

Got this through the door earlier. The absolute state of these utter scum. Total pieces of shit.
I thought this was a Tory leaflet at first. How silly of me, all the points probably fit in with the tories but there isn't a single mention of the evil SNP.

There we go haha. I got a Podence from the party bag. Yas.
I actually had Podence in the first few weeks and quite liked him. Absolute worthless now admitadley.
Last 3 party bags I've got 3 right wingers, none of whom really fit my team. Still can't complain now.

They are reasonably profitable right now anyway as most commons are 800+ and the central midfield modifiers are 1000-5000 coins. I’m sure you’ll make close to the 25k outlay you spent.
But yeah I’ve literally opened like 200k+ worth in the last few days. Prob more. Never going to hit walkout after walkout from them, but it does surprise me that they have been better than some ultimate packs for me this year. I opened the ultimate from the Serie A the other night. A Libertadores and next highest being an 82. Ridiculous.
Edit opened 2 there, my second one...
Haha typical. Yeah I've probably made close to 10k back and got plently fodder for match ups later, or for the 81 upgrades.
I've made loads from the Bronze pack method last few days. Must be about 30k in the last 2 days. Just doing it when bored at work.

81 and 85 red pick. Oyarzabal, Casteels, Gaya and Steve Mandanda from rewards.
Pulled Birthday Hwang he Chan from a player pick last night while doing Huntelaar so he came in handy for the latter parts. I did the Brazilian players at the same time as I had Headiner Cunha and 82 future stars Reiner still in the club. Just in case any of you were going to do them. Made it a lot easier doing them both simultaneously.
5k packs are better than rewards for me. Hit a Van Dijk the other night to add to that birthday Perisic. Don’t get me wrong I open a lot and don’t get a lot to show for it. But have had some very good walkouts from them this year.
After reading this I bought 5 5k packs and didn't get a single birthday or 90 plus rated card. Feel cheated tbh.
Also echo what someone else said, Vidal is great fun.

Had a few too many cans last night watching the boxing and decided to buy an ultimate pack. Nothing to spend coins on, got all the players I need for objectives in friendlies and my main team is sorted on paper, at least I'll get some good fodder, maybe even a Birthday player, 5% chance which is as good as it'll get.
Took a wee video for my FIFA WhatsApp group with my mates and I'm glad I did because I now have something to look back on every time I think of buying packs.
That is absolutely horrendous. I feel for you. Thanks for sharing though, I was debating it after seeing people pulling icons all of this place. And that p***k Wardy pulling Mendy....

Packed Hwang from the 10x 83+ pack. Apart from Sane it's the Birthday card I most wanted so happy with that. Good fodder too.
That is very good. I got Busquetes, some low 80 rated totw jobber and 8 83 rated players in mine. Opened if yesterday and I'm still raging.
15 packs saved and other than a tradable Kante the above was as good as it got for me.

I think he is dead. That's clearly Norman Tebbit's Spitting Image puppet from 1986!
This one looks more life-like imo.

Over the past 2 weeks I've went from middle of division 4 to cusp of being relegated to division 6. Dunno what's wrong, just cannot seem play, or get any luck.
Played 4 games in rivals tonight (3 defeats), one of which I hit the post with two pens, and with 2 further shots and just generally couldn't seem to get a break. Lost with over 70% possession and they scored with all 2 of their shots.
Naturally I'm having a heads gone at this and my wife asks why I bother playing a game that gets me so worked up. I don't really have an answer.
Does anyone else feel like they're getting worse or is it just me being humpty?

That was weekend league only. Solid return. His dribbling inside the box is brilliant. His runs are great as well. I’ve not used Neymar in Fifa 21 but he was brilliant in Fifa 20 for me. I’m not one for just spending hundreds of thousands on a player, I prefer to let EA decide who I get and build a team from that. Haha.
Thanks. I bought Neymar out of frustration initially but I've noticed that no matter who I have in my team I'm always around the same level.
So thinking of making my team all first owners just for the fun of it. Might be sad but I do enjoy building the team and working out how to get players in. An icon obviously helps that, and Neymar is one of two I could replace to achieve that.

I’d say no. I’ve used 82 Areola the last couple of weeks and I’d say I actually preferred him to Alisson who I had earlier on. I used 83 Aitor one weekend and still finished on my usual 14 wins I’m sure.
With me getting Smalling in the guaranteed What IF SBC, red pope will make his champs debut this weekend. So I’ll let you know how he fairs. Haha.
Did the Party bag earlier and got RTTF perisic worth 20k
How you finding Nedved?
I'm tempted to do him, but would mean replacing Neymar, who I do like, but is one of two players I could sell.

After seeing, I believe Wardy, get Essien I decided to empty my club on the mid prime icon.
First one up, Cannavaro, who is of course the one Icon I have in my club. Second is David Beckham.
Third, 93 Gullit. I was so relieved. And now a happy camper.
Have nothing left but that Puyol looks very good value as well.

I know a boy that won't eat anything that had wings when it was alive.
Does he consider penguins to have wings or flippers?

Aye that last line is a good one.
Friends, family, even football, will be more important than work for the majority of us on here (unless Nicola has an account?).
We all want to do our best at work and thats all you can do. Got to focus on other things after work. As an accies fan I'd think you'd have enough to worry about...

I've been reading through the archive on this thread, and there's a lot of knowledgeable and brave contributors on it. Really inspiring.
I was wondering if anyone had any experience dealing with work stress AND anxiety, that is, does one cause the other or is it a chicken and egg scenario?
In particular, dealing with mistakes you've made at work, how you manage with stress etc. and stop it ruining the rest of your week?
Genuinely interested as I've learned more on this thread than a lot of other stuff I've read. Thanks.
I read one of those silly 'inspirational' Facebook picture messages once that said something along the lines of 'if it won't matter in 5 years, don't spend more than 5 minutes worrying about it'.
Now obviously there are plently of occasions when that statement is not applicable, but, although its easier said than done, I have tried to apply it to my work.
I made a rather large error just last week, and after getting some stress sweat and a little panic I started to focus on that statement. I find it helps to think about what I was doing 5 years ago, and how things I stressed about 5 years ago don't matter now. So the same will will true of my balls up last week.
I know this might be harder for some people to make themselves think in that way, but hopefully it'll help in some small way.

This is a lovely read. Imagine the wonder of being alive during the triumphant days of Hot Potato 3... the tears when it finally came to its resting place. Glorious.
Thank you for this thread.

Odd. I packed 2 untreatable Oblack's tonight, except mine where both gold ones so I'll fire at least 1 into Dalglish.
4 ToTS for me, all championship players. One was Aarons who looks OK and links to Rooney, but isn't better than Tav so meh.
