After the goal you stopped trying to play football completely. Must be infuriating.
Yep. Infuriating and incredibly predictable under McFuck.
There was point in having strikers on the pitch. Not that they played badly but there was no-one with 50 yards of them.
Nope. There's now a read-only commentary thread during games. Officially:
No idea whether it's down to the server getting overloaded or there being too many posts for the mods to keep up. Possibly a bit of both.
RAWK's a much bigger forum than this one, so match threads get longer much more quickly and the server is under heavy load much more often.
Also, I'd imagine that match threads these days would be very much of the broken record variety. The moaning is bad at the best of times.
Yeah but I can't even see the read-only match thread?
"Oh my word - this would have broken the internet for good. TONY HIBBERT ALMOST SCORES! The full-back puts in a cross which strikes the bar and falls to Tim Cahill, who can only prod at John Ruddy with the goal gaping. Imagine that. Hibbert scoring..."
Think BBC have changed their writer again. Pretty funny stuff
