Petty Things That Get On Your Nerves...


Recommended Posts

The Raith Rovers website. Specifically the squad page.

It shows 20 players (yes, I counted) but 7 of them are under 19s and one of them has disappeared. So we have 12 senior squad players not the fucking plethora that we appear to. I'd like to look at my squad without a nagging doubt that we're gonna be relying on Jamie Mackie next year.

It certainly is petty though.

Still got 2hrs of back shift to go :( and the time is going so feckin slowly. A lot of my family are all at my Dads the night for a cheeky drink ahead of tomorrow and by the time i get there i will be the only sober one.

Speed drinking may be on the cards ;) (it's not clever btw)

When you completely change your plans to accommodate someone else after they say at 6pm "Aye, I'll be round at yours at about 7, half 8. Don't bother getting booze, I've got plenty here so I'll just bring that round."

Well, it's now 9:15 and that's me just finding out he's in the pub, drinking with the lovely inhabitants of Parkhead, in a hole of a pub.

Now I'm late for the fucking 21st I'm going to, and stone cold sober.

EDIT-= OH HERE WE FUCKING GO.

I put my clippers on charge 2 hours ago so I could have a last minute shave before I went out. So I go into the room and turn them on, I start to work under my chin when the fucking battery runs out.

I didn't turn the plug on.

So now, not only am I late, sober and annoyed. I'm late, sober, annoyed, and I have a fucking single bald spot on my chin.

f**k everything.

I've just had the worst two months on Football Manager ever.

Having guided Stenhousemuir to the First Division, I was sitting a point off the top behind Dundee and St Johnstone. Then, within the space of three games, 7 (seven!) of my key first team players got injured. Each one was out for at least 2 months. I now occupy 8th, sitting dangerously above Clyde and Dunfermline.

Fucking tits.

This is unrelated, but in one of my FM games Zanetti (I think) started giving me jip at the start of the season. He was about 104 but still a decent player, but I took the huff with him so only played him in 9 league games so that he didn't get a league winner's medal.

Dick.

I'm sure you'll manage to make a recovery, with your top managerial style. B)

:lol: Class!

Slightly un-related also, but this was from Championship Manager days....

I had broken a record for the number of clean sheets my team had had in a row (I can't remember the exact number, but the record was easily broken), and was going really well. Then Gianluigi Buffon conceded two goals at home to an 'average at best' team, so I disciplined him 4 weeks wages. He 'took the huff' as players did, and he didn't play another game for me as I replaced him.

Don't do it!

You'll have one of those niggly headaches tomorrow, and that'll get worse as the game goes on.

Be sensible and wait until 5pm tomorrow to go mad with drinkies! Trust me - I'm an experienced drinker. :ph34r:

You ridiculously harsh b*****d! No wonder he took the huff! He concedes two goals after breaking the club's clean sheet record and you fine him a month's wages?

The players must be terrified of you.

:lol:

I know, but I was quite angry, as I felt the run of clean sheets could have, and should have, gone on for longer. It was a bit of a rash decision (football management game-wise) to fine him 4 weeks wages, but I was angry. If that actually happened, I'd probably end up being taken to all sorts of tribunals and the like and being sued for every bean to my name. :lol:

:lol: I know, i've been there myself.

Even more annoying is when you fine someone for what you think is unprofessional behaviour for missing training, but you've accidentally clicked under it and fined them for dismissal in prior match.

You end up with said player and about 6 others unhappy about your treatment of him :(

It's amazing how much you can get into it.

Even the rogue little bean?

Yeah, that's poor when that happens.

What was also bad was when a player was late for training or the like, and you fined him or give him a warning for unprofessional behaviour and he refuted the fine or warning. He then became unhappy because of it. <_<
