MIAMI (AP) In between the Orange Bowl and the BCS national championship game, there's a daunting task that awaits the people who actually host those two contests.
That is, a massive redecoration of several venues - with just a few hours to pull it off in some cases.
Florida State and Northern Illinois are scheduled to head home from the Orange Bowl on Wednesday morning, not long before Notre Dame and Alabama arrive that afternoon to begin final preparations for Monday night's BCS title tilt.
And by the time the Fighting Irish and the Crimson Tide land, much of what promoted the Orange Bowl will be gone.
Sections of the turf at Sun Life Stadium were to be removed within a few hours after the Orange Bowl for new sod - much of which will either have Notre Dame, Alabama or BCS logos painted on it in the coming days.
The quickest work will likely come at the team hotels. Notre Dame and Alabama - not to mention large portions of each team's fan base - will check into the same hotels on Wednesday that the Seminoles and Huskies will have checked out of earlier in the day. Florida State and Northern Illinois colors and logos will be torn down, but none of that will begin until those teams actually depart.
In short, Florida State and Northern Illinois won't be made to feel like the warm-up act for this two-week Miami college football extravaganza.
``We want to make sure Florida State and Northern Illinois feel like they're the only game in town,'' Orange Bowl Committee spokesman Larry Wahl said. ``We want them to have first-class championship treatment.''
CAREY'S DEBUT: Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher was asked in recent days about how he thinks Northern Illinois' Rod Carey has handled the transition from assistant coach to head coach over the past couple weeks.
Fisher's answer: It really hasn't happened yet.
``I think it's going to be tougher next year than it is right now,'' Fisher said.
He might be right.
Carey has put his own certain twist on things since taking over for Dave Doeren - now at North Carolina State - on Dec. 2, the same day that the Huskies got their Orange Bowl invitation. Most of Carey's college experience has been as an offensive line coach.
But the formula that Doeren used really isn't changing much now that Carey is in charge, even with his head-coaching debut coming in a Bowl Championship Series game.
``Next year I think will be even more of a transition because they have to reinvent those roles and tell everybody what they're doing and it's a different group,'' Fisher said. ``But it is a lot to put on him. I think he's done a great job in meeting him the few times I have I've been very impressed. I think he's a great guy, and developing a good friendship. I really enjoy being around him.''
Carey has shown quite a sense of humor about his new role, particularly all the added media responsibilities, including those that have required him to show up for various things in jacket and tie.
``I'm more comfortable with a whistle around my neck and coaching than I am with a (microphone) in front of me in a suit, I can tell you that,'' Carey said. ``My wife likes it when I dress up in a suit. I hate it.''
TIES THAT BIND: Sean Evans' father graduated from Florida State. So, too, did Ricky Connors' parents.
And Evans and Connors both play for ... Northern Illinois.
There's actually quite a few ties that bind the Northern Illinois and Florida State rosters, with 13 players in the game (six Huskies, seven Seminoles) having been high school teammates in either Florida or Alabama.
The Huskies also have seven players who count either relatives or close friends as having studied at Florida State - including cornerback Jhony Faustin, the cousin of Seminoles' defensive tackle Nile Lawrence-Stample.
RUNNING `NOLES: One of the reasons why Florida State returned to the Bowl Championship Series for the first time in seven seasons was a huge improvement in the Seminoles' running game.
While Florida State's passing numbers didn't change much between 2011 and this season that ended with the 31-10 win over Northern Illinois in the Orange Bowl on Tuesday night, the rushing totals were night and day.
A year ago, Florida State rushed for 1,458 yards, 3.3 yards per carry and 20 touchdowns - all season.
The final numbers from this season: 2,882 yards, 5.6 yards per carry and 40 touchdowns.
CHANGING SCENES: Early last month, Northern Illinois coach Rod Carey feigned concern about how his team would handle South Florida's nightlife during Orange Bowl week.
There was no cause for alarm.
The Huskies left what had been their Miami Beach hotel and stayed elsewhere on Monday night, a move Carey planned long ago to avoid distractions - which, had they stayed in the same place, would have included a poolside New Year's eve concert by rapper Drake that blared long past 1 a.m. and raised the ire of some Northern Illinois fans.
Even some Super Bowl coaches have made similar change-hotels-before-the-big-game moves in recent years, but Carey insisted his club impressed him with how it handled temptations.
``You know, you come down to South Beach with a bunch of 18- to 22-year-olds - we were all 18 to 22 at one point, can remember what that was like,'' Carey said. ``We haven't had one single incident with bad decision making. I give them all the credit for that.''
Curfew wasn't even a problem for Northern Illinois, with most players routinely getting back to the hotel 30 to 60 minutes early.
``We had fun for the first couple of days, but then it was back to business,'' Huskies wide receiver Martel Moore said.

Astros stockpile talented arms in farm system
GM Luhnow drafted, dealt for prospects preparing to make jump to Majors
KISSIMMEE, Fla. -- The Astros have been at the forefront of utilizing statistical data since general manager Jeff Luhnow was hired 26 months ago, and they recently spent more than $300,000 upgrading the club's video equipment for advance scouting.
They've tried to take whatever steps necessary to give them a competitive edge as they continue to rebuild the Major League club, but no matter how many numbers you crunch or high-definition cameras you install, the game still usually comes down to one thing: pitching.
The Astros have tried to make sure they have enough of that, too, stockpiling arms through the First-Year Player Draft and trades in the past two years. The team has built what's considered the best Minor League system in baseball, thanks in part to an impressive influx of young arms.
"You've got to score some runs, but you've got to prevent runs," Luhnow said. "They're both equally important, but because pitchers tend to get hurt more often than position players, you have to have more of them."
Last year, the Astros saw 10 pitchers make their Major League debuts, including Jarred Cosart, Josh Zeid, Kevin Chapman, David Martinez, Jose Cisnero, Paul Clemens and Chia-Jen Lo. In camp this year are several players who could reach the Majors at some point, led by prospects such as Mike Foltynewicz and Asher Wojciechowski.
It's an impressive mix of young talent manager Bo Porter hopes continues to grow.
"We all know it starts and ends on the mound," Porter said. "You look at the young players we have coming, and obviously they are extremely exciting players. The additions which we were able to make to go with the core groups we had returning last year gives us depth."
With veteran pitching coach Brent Strom, pitching coordinator Dyar Miller, roving pitching instructor Doug White and senior pitching advisor Doug Brocail providing guidance, the Astros' young pitchers have also already heard from Roger Clemens this year. Nolan Ryan will drop by, too.
"I think they're taking the kid gloves off them a little bit and asking a lot of them to step up," Clemens said. "I hope they pay attention to detail and I hope they pay attention when they're not pitching, watching what's happening to a hitter they have trouble with or how they want to break that hitter down. That's all part of the learning process, but good Lord, you're a Major League player and you should already have that in your routine and your makeup and how you carry yourself."
The pitching depth runs so deep, the Astros plan to again use tandem starters in the Minor Leagues to give more pitchers more innings. By having two starting pitchers work in the same game, it gives eight starters at each level and 10 in rookie ball a chance to work on a third pitch or stamina or anything else.
Some of the pitchers are ultimately going to be moved to the bullpen, but the Astros want to give them as long of a look as possible as starters, and the tandem starting arrangement allows them to do that.
"Whatever they're working on, they get a chance to work on it," Luhnow said. "Ultimately, not everybody can start, so you do need some guys to go into the bullpen. It also allows you to build up more innings with them so when they do transition over the bullpen, they've got the amount of innings in the Minor Leagues they need."
Since taking over as general manager in December 2011, Luhnow has acquired 21 pitchers in 13 different trades, including Wojciechowski, Rudy Owens, Alex White, Brad Peacock and Anthony Bass, all of whom are in big league camp this year. Other names, such as Joe Musgrove, David Rollins, Blair Walters, Colton Cain and Josh Hader, aren't quite well as known.
The Astros took 24 pitchers in last year's First-Year Player Draft, including Mark Appel with the first overall pick, Andrew Thurman in the second round and left-hander Kent Emanuel in the third round. They drafted 19 pitchers in Luhnow's first Draft with Houston in 2012, taking Lance McCullers Jr. 41st overall and Brady Rodgers in the third round.
"There's a higher failure rate for pitchers coming through the Minor Leagues, so you have to have more of them," Luhnow said. "We definitely prioritized that in every trade that we made. We wanted to make sure we got a good, young arm coming back to the extent that was possible. We knew we would be picking some up in the Draft as well, but it takes those guys a little bit longer.
"From Owens to Wojo to Hader, we really prioritized getting guys in we thought could be starters and had already passed a couple of hurdles in the Minor Leagues. So maybe a little bit safer than guys out of the Draft. Even when you have a pitching prospect at Double-A, there's going to be no guarantees they're going to make it to the big leagues, so we wanted to make sure we had a enough depth there."
The Astros have been fortunate not to suffer many serious injuries among their starting pitchers in the Minor Leagues, though White is coming off Tommy John surgery and Owens missed nearly all of last year following foot surgery. Luhnow credits team doctors, trainers, coaches and strength and conditioning coaches for helping maintain health and giving the pitchers more time to develop.
"That's really what it's all about," Luhnow said. "You look at what we have in the big leagues, a lot of young pitchers and lot of guys made their debuts last year. Also, you look at guys who could potentially make the big league club this year, and Wojo is in that equation and Folty's not that far away.
"There's a big wave of guys after that when you look at Rodgers and Appel and everybody else. You kind of want to have that situation every year where you have three or four guys coming to the big leagues for the first time that are going to be in the mix sometime in the next season and a season and a half, and I think we're there."

Anton Gustafsson
Karlskoga Sweden
Eligible for draft:
1st round (21st overall), 2008
194 lbs.
Prospect Talent Score
Probability of Success
2006-07: Gustafsson split the season between Frolunda's U-18 and U-20 teams. He scored 5 goals with 3 assists and had 24 PIM in 26 games as a rookie at the U-20 level. Gustafsson scored 3 goals with 4 assists and had 8 PIM in 8 games at the U-18 level. In six playoff games for Frolunda U-18, he scored 3 goals with 1 assist and had 2 PIM. Gustafsson played for Varmland in the TV-Pucken U-17 tournament and scored 4 goals with 3 assists in five games. He was selected for Team Sweden's WJC U-18 roster but did not play in the tournament due to injury.
2007-08: Gustafsson made his Swedish Elite League debut with Frolunda and was nearly a point-per-game scorer for the Indians' U-20 team. Gustaffson had no points or PIM in five minutes of ice time in his one SEL appearance. Gustafsson was an assistant captain for the U-20 squad and scored 15 goals with 17 assists and had 55 PIM in 33 junior games. In two U-20 playoff games for Frolunda he had 1 goal with 2 PIM.
2008-09: Gustafsson attended Capitals' camp but was limited due to back problems. He was expected to play for Frölunda's Allsvenskan affiliate Borås but instead returned to his hometown Karlskoga to play for Bofors in the same league. Gustafsson scored 6 goals with 4 assists and had 22 PIM in 25 games for Bofors. He played two regular season games with Frolunda U-20 and was scoreless with 4 PIM. He found his offensive touch in the U-20 playoffs, scoring 3 goals with 4 assists and was +8 with 4 PIM.
2009-10: Gustafsson suffered a concussion during the Capitals' prospect camp and then had myriad injuries in training camp – one of which was the result of him crashing into a goal post. He was sent to Hershey after Washington's camp and played some in the exhibition games but was loaned to Boras and spent the season in Sweden's second league. Following Boras' season, he made his North American pro debut in an April 4 game and had two assists and was +2 in a 3-2 win over Norfolk. He was with Hershey during their Calder Cup playoff run but did not play in any games. Gustafsson scored 6 goals with 12 assists and had 18 PIM in 34 games with Boras.
Talent Analysis
Gustafsson is a highly-skilled, two-way center with good size who likes to play the body - sometimes to his own peril as injuries have slowed his development. Gustafsson is still maturing physically but has good hockey sense and is a responsible defender. He works to distribute the puck and looks to create opportunities for his teammates. His shot is not particularly strong but it is accurate and he has a quick release that sometimes surprises opposing goalies. He can be very dangerous and tough to play one-on-one at full speed but does not have great quickness and acceleration. Defensively, he is workmen-like and rarely takes unnecessary risks. He relies on smart decisions and simple plays. He is the son of former Capital and recent Team Sweden Head Coach Bengt-Ake Gustafsson.

Takeda Pharmaceuticals, Amylin Pharmaceuticals, Inc. Terminate $1 Billion Anti-Obesity Pact
DEERFIELD, Ill., Dec. 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited (TSE: 4502) today announced that it has mutually terminated its worldwide agreement with Amylin Pharmaceuticals, Inc., originally signed in October 2009, to co-develop and commercialize compounds for obesity.
The companies announced in August 2011 their decision to discontinue the development of pramlintide/metreleptin, an investigational combination therapy for the treatment of obesity. That joint decision was based on a commercial reassessment of the pramlintide/metreleptin program, which had been in Phase 2 development as a twice-a-day injection formulation. The companies have since determined to formally terminate the partnership at this time. Having greatly benefited from the Amylin team's collective experience and scientific expertise, Takeda will continue to enhance its R&D activities in the area of obesity as well as its other core therapeutic areas to meet the needs of patients.
Takeda's consolidated financial statement for the fiscal 2012 will not be impacted by the termination of this partnership.

Poyet is one of a number of managers touted as a possible replacement for Brian McDermott, who was sacked last week.
It is understood contact has been made with the 45-year-old Uruguayan, who has experience of working on the staff of a Barclays Premier League club following a spell as Juande Ramos' assistant at Tottenham.
Poyet has previously been open about his desire to coach in the top flight, although he may elect to resist any approach from Reading with his current side in the npower Championship play-off shake-up.
Reading owner Anton Zingarevich is believed to be in England to finalise a new appointment, having shown McDermott the door following a recent home defeat to Aston Villa that left the club mired in the relegation zone.
Paolo Di Canio and Nigel Adkins have also been linked with the vacancy, although the latter has no interest as he plots his next move following his departure from Southampton.
Whoever Zingarevich opts for, the Royals still have a chance of beating the drop, according to captain Jobi McAnuff.
"No one's giving up," the midfielder told club website readingfc.co.uk.
"We're got eight massive games left now and it doesn't matter who we've got, we'll show our pride and see if we can pick some results up.
"For us it's about believing that we're good enough to be here. We really do believe that - we're here on merit."

The Fremont County Commissioners on Tuesday approved a Conditional Use Permit for Zephyr Gold USA to conduct gold exploration in the Dawson area.
Angela Bellantoni, of Environmental Alternatives, explained the project to the commissioners. The proposed site is in the historic Cooper King Mine site. The area was run in the 1970s by U.S. Borax Chemical Corp.; in 1987 by Jascan Resources Inc. and a CUP was issued at that time; in 1996, it was owned by Celtic Minerals, and now it is controlled by Zephyr Minerals, which purchased the site in October 2012.
The project is expected to occur in three phases.
The first phase, which will begin in a the next few weeks, is mineral resource delineation and drilling. Depending on the results of that phase, there is a second phase, which is preliminary economic analysis that would happen in the summer, and the third phase is confirmation drilling and some geotechnical studies for further information.
"The results of one phase drive the next," Bellantoni said.
There are two sites set to be explored: Dawson Mountain and Windy Gulch. Bellantoni said the sites are about 1.75 miles southwest of the Dawson Ranch development and a significant number of ridges separate the two.
Jim Javernick spoke in support of the project. He said he has been involved on the site since the 1980s.
"Once they start underground, you guys won't even know they're there," he said.
Will Felderhof, technical consultant for Zephyr, said he expects a mine could produce between 25,000 and 30,000 ounces of gold per year.
"An underground mine of this size has very minimum footprint," he said.
The commissioners approved the exploration unanimously.
The board also approved a resolution expressing the resolve of the board to uphold the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and encouraging state and federal representatives to recognize and enforce existing gun laws.
"Whereas, for centuries tyrants have recognized that a disarmed population is a readily-dominated population," the resolution states. "It is estimated that more than 70 million people, representing more than half the households in America, have chosen to lawfully exercise the right to bear arms and defend themselves and their families."
The resolution also sites studies by the National Academies of Sciences and the Centers for Disease Control finding no persuasive evidence that gun-control laws actually reduce crime.
In other business, the commissioners:
— Received the annual review of the John C. Fremont Library District from Director Tabby Selakovich.
— Appointed Cherry Jones to the Penrose Community Library District Board of Trustees.
— Received an update on the 2012 activities and 2013 plans at the Cripple Creek & Victor Gold Mining Company.
— Received the annual report of the Fremont County Tourism Council.
— Approved a resolution granting an exemption from the subdivision regulation for a tract of land in the county belonging to Charles and Donna Dudley.
— Appointed Richard Jacobson to the Fremont County Heritage Commission for a term ending Jan. 1, 2015. The vacancy on the commission was created by the resignation of Margaret Storm.
— Approved an intergovernmental agreement with the Cañon City Area Fire Protection District regarding enforcement of fire restrictions under the Fremont County Fire Restriction Ordinance. The agreement was approved by the Fire Protection District on Monday.
— Appointed Michael Pullen and Marvin Dornhecker to the Building Code Board of Appeals. Pullen will fill a vacancy created by the resignation of Commissioner Tim Payne for a term to end Aug. 1, 2015, and Dornhecker will fill an alternate position with a term ending Aug. 1, 2016.

About The Queen's Royal Cookery
The Queen's Royal Cookery, by T. Hall, was first published in 1709. As well as a wide variety of basic culinary recipes, the book contains instructions for preserves, candies, cosmetics and 'beautifying waters.' It is one of a number of books claiming to reveal the secrets of the royal kitchens, a highly fashionable subject during the 17th and 18th centuries. Queen Anne, who reigned from 1702-1714, was a rich source of gossip, and the public seemed to have an endless fascination for any information gleaned from beyond the palace walls.The production of art and literature prospered during the reign of Queen Anne. Throughout this period booksellers churned out popular recipe books, fully aware of the commercial viability of recipes linked to prestigious chefs. Unfortunately many of the books were thrown together by money-making charlatans who had simply filched their material from existing publications. Forty of T. Hall's recipes were taken directly from The Closet of the Eminently Learned Sir Kenelm Digby (1669).

A quick modification of Mr_Nick666's forwarder channel for use on the Wii U (vWii).
I simply used ShowMiiWads to replace the 00000001.app file inside the WAD with the vWii compatible version and changed the title ID from SCUM to ECUM so that the vWii loads ScummVM in the proper 4:3 Aspect Ratio. This way your games can be played the way they were designed (All the games I own were designed for 4:3 at least).
ScummVM Forwarder Channel vWii - Hosted on Google Drive
I take zero credit for this. Credit goes to Mr_Nick666 for his original Forwarder, and to FIX94 for the legwork that allows Forwarders to exist on the vWii. I just put two and two together.
Links to both of the posts that made this possible:
Mr_Nick666's Original Forwader - Usage instructions can be found here also.
FIX94's original GBAtemp post about Wii U (vWii) Forwarders
ShowMiiWads - The program used to make this
Hopefully someone will find this useful. I made an account to post this only because I couldn't find a ScummVM vWii Forwarder anywhere else haha
Edit Protip:
To get rid of the black borders surrounding all sides of your games, add the following to the [scummvm] section of your scummvm.ini file. That file is located in SD:/Apps/ScummVM/
If these lines already exist in your scummvm.ini file, simply change the values to zero.
Code: Select all

Review: FIFA 11
Pages 1 2 NEXT
In FIFA 11, you kick a ball into a net.
Yah. I wholeheartedly agree with the review. Clean design, nothing totally innovative however but enjoyable. If you have FIFA10 don't think you'll need the upgrade but its a nice to have.
I'm poundering of getting it, though I always dislike games which are sold for 50€.
I hope fast ^_^
Damn, ninja'd.
Anyway this is a pretty beautiful game.
Good review, it is definately a superior game to FIFA 10, however I think its a game that shows its quality over time so for some people it needs to grow on them before they can truely appreciate how much better it is. Worth the full price though? That depends if you truely love football and want the most upto date game.
It's interesting to get a yanks view on a Fifa game I can never tell if Americans like the series or not. Anyway has anyone noticed freezing during matches? I'm really hoping for a patch soon.
I used to like the FIFA games, but I don't think I've played one since 04 or something... I may pick this one up. Should have a job soon, so money and stuff. And it sounds like they improved them. I've always liked that you can improve your teams, instead of having these static players, who never seem to get better at kicking the damn ball, even with all that practice.
Yeah you lot should be banned from reviewing football games...
I keed! ;)
The one big step for this years Fifa was proper, and I mean proper, PC support. Previous incarnations have been an embarrassment. The PC version doesn't have personality pro but then - who really cares. In multiplayer I want to play against the other player, not against an overpaid primadonna and in single player I prefer to take a lower league team to greatness than just cling to the coattails of the 'big four'. Many "serious" football players stuck to Pro Evo for years with non-licensed players, this has always been secondary to gameplay for the real football fan.
When you have a good group of players to enjoy the game with it comes alive - they've restricted the PC version to max 10 players but the drop out rate for 20-a-side, presuming you could actually get enough people to stay long enough to kick off, was appalling so this is no bad thing at all.
I'm interested to know where the reviewer thinks the game is lacking to have it receive only a four star review. A few of the comments made in the article lead me to believe the author doesn't really care too much, or properly understand the game. Football is a team game so in all modes positional play and working into space is a big factor of the game. It's not always about being on the ball but about moving into a position to break the defence or create gaps. Fifa does this better than any other game in the past. Pro mode further accentuates this when you are locked to the individual player and have to be very careful to play that position effectively and not play it like a schoolboy continuously chasing the ball!
You also are not restricted to one position as such, this is a nice feature in that you play where the manager puts you. My preferred position is right midfielder but was selected for left midfield or central at times which was a real test of my ability to adjust.
Certainly when you look at the competition, which consists entirely of the stalled franchise that is Pro Evolution Soccer, it's blown it out of the water continuously over the past three years. I'm glad to be back on Fifa - and even more pleased to be able to play with my PC gaming pals.
Um, a Macintosh version of FIFA 11 (it is mentioned in Platforms)? When did that happen? I know there is one for iOS devices, but iPhone, iPad and the lot are still kinda different from a Mac ;)
What. Was that. At the end.
While I do think this year's FIFA was better than last year's, for me it still has most of the same problems as before. Its play feels a bit one-dimensional, as you're basically using the same tactics as before to win... pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, one-on-one with the keeper. Long balls and crosses rarely work, dribbling is pointless unless you use the flick-it trick system (and even using that rarely works), and defending is a bit too over-powered. You'll only ever use one tactic to win games cos it's the only one that works.
Of course this is just my own opinion, and if that make me a so-called PES fanboy despite its plummet from grace, then so be it. But I did enjoy FIFA 10 and I do believe that some games only need tweaks instead of needless overhauls. My personal opinion however, is that FIFA 11 hasn't been tweaked enough.
Or you just don't know how to play the game. Crosses do work, and I score off long through balls all the time, and I dribble all the time. Have you ever watched a real soccer game?
Not convinced about a mac release but they've produced a quite spiffy online version - nowhere near the quality of the full game but still was a nice game which filled the gap until the full PC release!
Interesting read about transitioning between Fifa 10 and 11:
"There's much more skill involved, and so tons more satisfaction, in building an attack with clever movement, accurate passes and well timed-runs, than there is in just pressing the pass button four times in a row."
I'm sorry, Greg, I completely misunderstood why you are the one to review this game.
It's pretty obvious that, well, you don't like soccer that much, which is okay, but I bet you that Fifa 11 is really really different in the hands of a football fan.
For me, it was as different as I could ever imagine it being - refined passing, controls, penalty system, Be A Goalkeeper.
Also, more red cards does not equal better.
Just saying.
Hahaha, the Biblioteca joke. xD
In my country, soccer is a HUGE thing, it's even an obsession here. Many people breathe, eat, crap and sleep soccer and despite that, I hate socce and sometimes I feel like an outcast because of that.
Anyways, good review, I may get it for the PC, but only if it supports the 360 pad, if not, then, it won't hurt if I pass this one out, as I've passed FIFA games since '98 and they all look the same to me, only with prettier graphics.
Ooh, nice, I think I should check that out later :)
But what I meant was that maybe the review itself has a little error: At the very end where all the supported platforms are mentioned, one of the supported platforms given there is Mac, which, unless the Escapist reviewers know something we do not, is not a supported platform right now, as there is no Mac version of FIFA 11 as far as I know.
On the other hand, I know that EA is doing iOS releases of a lot of their games now and I think FIFA 11 for iPhone/iPad/iWhatever is actually already out as well, together with all the other versionsl. But then the supported platform should be iOS or iPhone and not Mac, because although they are all made by Apple, they are still a different platform :)
soccer?, i thought that it was called that only in the USA.
on another point, i will try this, specially after trying PES 2011 and not liking it.
*sigh* I was expecting this.
Yes I have seen a real soccer game, and I do know how to play FIFA. I've been playing soccer games since the Sensible Soccer days on the Amiga.
My complaint isn't that it's too hard. My complaint is that once you figure out the one tactic that works, it's p*ss-easy.
It sounds like you think of controlling one player as the primary game mode and the entire team as a side-feature. You have it rather backwards I'm afraid.
The best thing to do with Fifa 11 is to get 3 or 4 mates to all contribute to the price, then play it together. We did this for uni and it cost £7 each. It's already given us dozens of hours of fun.
Naah you just don't know how to play. Constantly passing won't work against a good player. You'll need good dribbling, passes, crosses, and through balls.
Because the other football fan in the office is me, and I mean the American type :P
I have nothing against non-football fans (despite them obviously being WRONG) but I do think that a guy who reviews football games should actually like football, otherwise it'll be incredibly difficult for him to spot the differences and the gameplay aspects.
Also, sorry for constantly saying "football", I guess calling it "soccer" would actually be a far fairer option, but it's hard to switch.
On the other hand, you could also consider it in the light that a person who doesn't like soccer might consider picking up the game, and shouldn't a review be equally valuable to them as well? You might argue that someone coming in who isn't a huge soccer fan might be more likely to judge a game on its own merits.
Tito likes sports games, and he volunteered. So he got it :)
Yeah, I guess I see the possibilites but I just don't think that a person who is thinking of picking up his first soccer game should go by the reviews of people similar to him.
Example - as a person who knew literaly nothing about American football, I tried out the demos for Madden and Backbreaker. Guess which one I liked more and guess which is the acclaimed superior game?
But, hey, if Greg volunteered, I'm cool with that.
A non-fan perspective is valuable too, just not as valuable in eyes.
*shrugs* It's worked for me so far.
I play a lot of FIFA. I have a habit of taking a crap team and getting them promoted to the premiership. Last year it was Bournemouth, this year it's Southend United.
Then I play a player career as one or both of my sons so they can see themselves on the video game screen. They love it.
The extras added this year have been subtle but it plays smoothly and I always love EA's soundtrack choices for the FIFA games.
Edit - It also cracks me up when Brits get annoyed at Americans when the term "soccer" is used when the Brits are the ones who invented the word as slang for "Association Football" back in the 1800s.
I like football. Great game, I'm not particularly good at it, but i do play every week or so at school. A ball to the face or balls just what keeps the happiness factor down a bit, but still...getting a goal is a great feeling....
Nice review :)
Psst, it's Norwegian not Norweigan :P
OT: Nice review although we all knew that ANY (insert sport here) (insert year here) will be very different from the one year older version.
I respectfully disagree. I bought FIFA 10, having being thoroughly disappointed by FIFA 08 and it's sticky controls. However, FIFA 10 felt much of the same, and FIFA 11 in comparison to it's immediate predecessor feels like it's gliding in air. In short: FIFA 10 sucked. FIFA 11 much, much better.
It's not only the Brits....
I'm a bit confused as to why you didn't mention the "be a goalkeeper" feature, which is one of the new big things for Fifa 2011.
Fifa 11 is the perfect game to invite your mates round for a few beers and discuss what really matters..... Will Liverpool get a new owner soon enough to make an impact on the season? Have Newcastle got the man power to survive in the Premiership? And why can't Man Untd keep up with Chelsea this season?
It is the best social game I've ever played.
Because he admitted he isnt 100% on the FIFA title.
Bought it three days ago and I find it hard to put it down!

Assistance Available to Small Plants in Rural Areas
By Linda B. Singletary and Keith Payne
Owners and operators of small and very small meat, poultry and processed egg product establishments in rural America can take advantage of the many opportunities the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) provides to improve their business development plans. Since announcing a groundbreaking outreach program in May 2006 to assist small and very small plants, USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) has worked diligently to make plant owners and operators aware of loan programs available through the Department.
USDA Rural Development is the lead agency in providing either financial or technical assistance for small food businesses. The Agency administers approximately $16 billion in program loans, loan guarantees and grants through its programs.
"Plant owners, working through lenders, will be able to obtain loan guarantees, making it easier for them to gain access to commercial credit in order to upgrade facilities or equipment, which will further enhance food safety," said USDA Under Secretary for Rural Development Thomas C. Dorr.
Depending on their needs, small plant owners and managers may go through either Rural Development's Business Programs or Cooperatives Program to expand or enhance their operations. Each program has a successful track record of improving the economy and quality of life in rural areas of the United States.
For instance, the Cooperatives Program provides a wide range of services for plants that are considering forming a new cooperative, getting technical assistance for an existing cooperative or conducting research to support a cooperative dealing with changing markets and business trends. Whatever the issue, the Cooperatives Program has a dedicated staff ready to provide assistance. "You might see one specialist or an appropriate team to tackle your project. Regardless of the size, we strive to bring you the best services possible," said Ben Anderson, Administrator, Business and Cooperative Programs.
Under the Business Programs there are several loans and grants that plant owners and operators may want to consider. The general stipulation for a plant to receive a loan or grant is that it must be in a rural area, with a population of less than 50,000. Other guidelines for eligibility may apply depending on the loan.
One such loan is available through the Business and Industry Guaranteed Loan Program. A business can borrow up to $25 million under this program; the interest rate is negotiated between the lender and the applicant and may be either fixed or variable as long as it is a legal rate. The maximum percentage of government guarantee for these loans is 80 percent.
Another option is the Section 9006 Program, which encourages the commercial financing of renewable energy and energy efficiency projects. This program provides grants, loans, and loan guarantees to eligible farmers, ranchers, and rural small businesses to assist in developing renewable energy systems and make energy efficiency improvements. Projects provided assistance must be located in a rural area (any area other than cities or towns of greater than 50,000 population and the immediate and adjacent urbanized areas of the cities or towns).
There are other loan and grant programs, which don't go directly to businesses, but can be helpful. These are important for small plants to be aware of as well.
As an example, the Rural Economic Development Loan and Grant program provides funding to rural projects through local utility organizations. Under this program, USDA provides direct zero-interest loans to local utilities, which in turn, lend through either a direct loan or revolving loan fund to local businesses that will create and retain employment in rural areas.
The rural Business Opportunity Grants program is yet another program that provides grants to rural public organizations, nonprofit corporations, Indian tribes and cooperatives with primarily rural members. The grants are designed for developing export markets, feasibility studies, long-term trade strategies, community economic development planning, business training and technology-based economic development.
Another source, which provides grants for rural projects that finance and facilitate development of small and emerging rural businesses, is the Rural Business Enterprise Grants program. The direct recipients of the grants are rural public entities, Indian tribes and nonprofit corporations. These organizations, in turn, help private businesses that employ 50 or fewer employees and have less than $1 million in projected gross revenue. Under this program, there is no maximum level of grant funding; however, smaller projects are given higher priority.
This overview of some of the loan and grant programs provides just a glimpse of the wide variety of services available to small businesses through USDA Rural Development. Because Rural Development programs generally are administered through a network of state and field offices, you should call the USDA Rural Development State Office in your state to discuss which programs will best meet your needs.

Food Safety Resources
By Mary Gioglio
Keeping good records is an important part of a whole Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) system. The HACCP - Plan Implementation and Records Management video was developed by Ohio State University through a cooperative agreement with FSIS. The video and accompanying manual provide examples of critical control points (CCPs), how to do process verification and pre-shipment reviews and how to manage the records that will be generated from CCPs.
To request this item or any other food safety resource, fax the order form found on the Food Safety Resources brochure to (202) 690-6519, or complete an online version of the form and send it to email@example.com. The online form can be found at www.fsis.usda.gov/Science/HACCP_Resources_Order_Form/index.asp .

Food Defense Plan: Why It's Essential
By Marianne Elbertson
The words "food defense" could conjure up different meanings from one person to another. But, it's certainly not the same as food safety.
Food defense focuses on protecting the food supply from intentional contamination from a variety of chemicals, biological agents or other dangerous substances by people who want to harm consumers or create economic havoc. An attacker's goal might be to harm or kill people, disrupt the economy, spread fear in society or achieve all these goals.
On the other hand, food safety addresses the accidental contamination of food products during processing or storage by biological, chemical or physical hazards. The main types of food safety hazards are microbes, chemicals and foreign objects. This unintentional contamination can be addressed through the required use of Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point plans.
Because intentional acts are generally difficult to anticipate, it's important for slaughter and food processing establishments to have a food defense plan. The reputation of your plant and the safety of your customers depend on it.
A food defense plan helps you identify steps that can be taken to minimize the risk that food products will be tampered with or intentionally contaminated at vulnerable points in your distribution chain. Although the plan should be in place at all times, it can be particularly helpful during emergencies. During a crisis, when stress is high and response time is at a premium, a documented set of procedures improves your ability to respond quickly to protect the public, employees and resources.
FSIS has developed some guidance to help you devise a food defense plan that meets your own needs. An easy, three-step process to complete a plan is available on FSIS' Web site at www.fsis.usda.gov/Food_Defense_&_Emergency_Response/Guidance_Materials/index.asp .
It's important to remember that there is no "one size fits all" in creating a food defense plan, and it can be as long or short as is appropriate for your operation. FSIS recommends that you review these important guidelines and assess which preventive measures are suitable and most cost effective for your situation.
"The business advantage to having a food defense plan," according to Dr. Carol Maczka, assistant administrator for FSIS' Office of Food Defense and Emergency Response, "is that it further protects consumer health, provides additional process control of a plant's products and protects a company's bottom line."
The sources of threats can vary. Individuals motivated to attack a plant or its product who do not have authorized access are considered to be intruders. Another threat may come internally, such as disgruntled employees and other insiders, who typically know what procedures are followed in the plant and often know how to bypass many security controls that would detect or delay an outside intruder.
Plant owners have already taken proactive measures to minimize threats. In 2006, Mark Schad, owner and operator of Schad Meats in Cincinnati, Ohio, decided to develop a food defense plan. Schad initially did not see the relevance of terrorism for his very small plant. After learning about what food defense meant and attending an FSIS exercise, he gained a better understanding of the need for a plan. His particular concern was the potential of intentional contamination by a disgruntled employee.
Schad participated in a focus group, which included other small and very small plant owners, that created FSIS' guidance document, and he used the information to put together his own plan. For his facility, it was as simple as walking through the plant to evaluate entry access points. There was already a security system in place and the exterior doors are kept locked, so it was determined that there was no need to implement additional physical security measures.
However, a key ingredient to a successful plan is testing and employee training. Schad educated his employees about outsider access concerns and advised them that they should report any suspicious activities to him immediately. He also discusses any food defense issues with the FSIS Inspector at their weekly meetings.
Schad also encourages other small and very small establishments to "look at food defense from the perspective of intentional contamination by an insider and not just from an international terrorism group."
"A plan will help protect a business from those who wish to harm the plant and its customers," said Schad. And for those who want to wait to see if a food defense plan becomes mandatory, he says, "Creating a plan while it is voluntary will give you a head start and make it easier when, and if, it becomes mandatory."
FSIS offers a wide array of helpful food defense materials on its Web site at www.fsis.usda.gov/Food_Defense_&_Emergency_Response/Guidance_Materials/index.asp . You also can contact the Office of Food Defense and Emergency Response at (202) 720-5643.

Submitting Applications for Label Approval
By Mary Gioglio
Every day FSIS evaluates label applications for a variety of meat, poultry and processed egg products. Each application must be carefully examined to ensure that the proper information about the product and the company is listed accurately.
What can you do to ensure your product's label application will be approved? Just follow these simple steps.
Complete all appropriate sections on FSIS Form 7234-1. It's recommended that the form be typed; however, legible printing is acceptable. And don't forget to sign the form.
Prepare a label sketch and include supporting documentation about the product's required labeling features. There are up to eight required features for each label sketch. They are:
- Product Name
- USDA Inspection Legend
- Net Weight
- Handling Statement
- Manufacturer's or Distributor's Address (Signature Line)
- Ingredients Statement
- Nutrition Facts
- Safe Handling Instructions
Make sure all the features that apply to your product are included on the label sketch, and include supporting documentation for all claims mentioned on the label. If something is missing or not accurately stated, the application will be returned to you.
After you complete FSIS Form 7234-1 and the sketch labeling, staple these documents together. Two copies of the application and sketch labeling are required. An additional copy is required for Foreign, Child Nutrition, Animal Production or Organic Claims.
Applications can be sent to FSIS' Labeling and Program Delivery Division by mail, delivery services or hand delivery by a company representative. The mailing address is:
Office of the Chief Operating Officer
1400 Independence Avenue, S.W.
Room 2540 South Building

Help creating a light loaf
Hi Everyone,
This is my first post. I have a lot of experience making dough for pizza, but have only made a few loaves of bread. If anyone is interested in making pizza, I have probably the most popular pizza recipe on the net. Just google "NY pizza recipe" and you'll see my name, Jeff Varasano, as the first result. Just follow the link for my pizza tips.
Anyway, I need some help with my bread. I've made 9 batches and I'm making progress, but still not happy. Here are some photos:
Even though the bread has nice wholes, it's very dense. Maybe crusty is the better word. I had a bread in NY over Xmas that was super light and airy inside. What factors tend to make the dough lighter and a bit less crusty? My basic process is this: I'm using Gold Medal Harvest King flour, filtered water, kosher salt and a sourdough starter (no IDY or commercial yeast). I did a 20 minute autolyze, a short mix, 2 turns spread over an hour and then a 12 hour 50F rise, followed by 2 more turns and about 4 hours at 72F. It's baked on a stone in a preheated 450F oven (although the stone measuered only 400F with an IR thermometer). I sprayed it with water upon entry and again at 20 minutes.
It seems like the inside is kind of gummy and needed to lose more water. But in my pizza experience, using a wet dough is better for spring, so I didn't want to dry out the dough prior to bake. So I thought that baking it longer might help, but then the bottom was starting to get very crusty and hard. You can see how thick the bottom crust is. Anyway, does anyone have any general guidelines or rules of thumb for making the dough more airy and light?

Bank of America (BAC) on Wednesday reported profits of $2.5 billion for second-quarter 2012, or 19 cents a share, beating analysts' estimates of 14 cents. A year ago, the bank showed a net loss of $8.8 billion, or 90 cents a share, largely due to mortgage-related losses.
Revenues were up 66%, to $21.97 billion, compared with a year ago.
Relative to the same quarter a year ago, the results for the second quarter of 2012 reflect higher mortgage banking income, driven largely by lower provisions for representations and warranties, the absence of the goodwill impairment charge and improved credit quality across most major portfolios, according to BofA's second-quarter earnings release.
"In a challenging global economy, we still see opportunities to do more with our customers and clients," said CEO Brian Moynihan in a statement. "Lending to commercial businesses increased for the sixth straight quarter—with small-business lending and commitments up 23% in a year—and consumer credit is in the best shape in years."
The Global Wealth and Investment Management unit that includes Merrill Lynch and Merrill Edge advisors posted higher year-on-year profits, with reported Q2 net income of $543 million versus $513 million a year ago, up 5.5%. However, profits were lower than in Q1, when GWIM reported net income of $547 million.
The total number of financial advisors rose to 17,534 from 17,512 in the prior quarter and 16,433 a year ago. Average trailing 12-month production, or fees and commissions in the quarter, was $915,000 per advisor, up from $905,000 in Q1 but down from $965,000 a year ago.

DJ Hero goes back to the simpler times of music games before there were world tours and fans to earn. You work through tiers of songs and unlock new mixes, characters, and costumes by earning stars -- but that's pretty much all you have to worry about. This simple design puts the focus on the music, which is excellent. DJ Hero has one of the best and certainly most diverse track lists of any music game. Unless you listen to country music exclusively, you will find songs here you love.
Renegade Edition ContentThe Renegade Edition doesn't add anything extra to the game, but it does come with some slick pieces of hardware. In this giant box you get:
This hardware costs an extra $80, making the package a hefty $200. That's a lot, tough economic times or not. The extras are cool, but they're probably only necessary for the super fans that have been excited about DJ Hero since it was first announced.
The black turntable is very pretty, but it's more prone to finger smudges than the standard edition. In use you won't notice any difference as the changes are merely cosmetic.
The double album is a great deal for newcomers to Jay-Z and Eminem. Most of the tracks are already available but they serve as a nice introduction to anyone who hasn't been listening to these MCs for the past 15 years. Also worth noting: while all the music in the game has been (cleverly) censored, this double album isn't. So even though the Renegade Edition is rated "T" for teen you're getting the original Jay-Z and Eminem tracks in all their Parental Advisory glory.
The case that transforms into a stand is great and I think this is the ideal way to play DJ Hero. Of course, the same effect can be accomplished with a keyboard stand or a stack of cardboard boxes. The legs feel a little wobbly at first, but once you have both hands on the turntable to steady them you won't notice any problem.
I'd say the more casual users and people who are already well-versed in the prose of Jay-Z and Eminem can skip the Renegade Edition. But if this is the game you've been waiting for and you're new to hip-hop (and you are independently wealthy), you'll be happy with your new CD and turntable stand. I'm not knocking any points off this edition because it's meant for the hardest of the hardcore fans and they'll be pleased with it.
Even better, the 102 licensed tracks have been mashed-up to create 93 original songs that you won't hear anywhere else. 50 Cent is mixed with David Bowie, Beastie Boys are mixed with Blondie, and Vanilla Ice is mixed with MC Hammer. Many mixes were created by the in-house DJs at developer Freestyle Games, but a healthy amount was produced by well-known disc jockeys like DJ Shadow and Grandmaster Flash. The entire soundtrack is superb and could easily stand on its own outside the game. If you just want to hear the music you can enable Party Play and sit back while the mix takes care of itself (you won't earn any points, though).
DJ Hero also looks great with sweeping, dynamic camera shots of the club gettin' crunked. You can't create your own DJ but there are a bunch of amusing unlockable characters, including superstar DJs like Daft Punk and Z-trip. I only wish the DJs' movements were more in synch with the track, because there are times when you're furiously scratching and your avatar somehow has both its hands in the air.
A new type of music game means there's a new controller you'll have to learn how to use. DJ Hero comes with the turntable controller. Half of it is the record platter with three face buttons and the other half is the mixer that includes the cross fader, effects knob, euphoria button (which enables DJ Hero's version of star power), and the native controls for whichever system you're playing on. These halves can be separated and flipped around for left-handed players.
The controller feels sturdy and it's a lot of fun to use. If you've never laid your hands on a turntable and mixer before it will likely feel very alien, but DJ Hero includes a helpful tutorial (hosted by Grandmaster Flash) to walk you through everything and the "beginner" and "easy" difficulty settings live up to their names. Whatever difficulty you're playing on you won't ever fail a song. That's not how DJ Hero rolls. If you aren't performing so hot the sound will cut out and you won't earn as many stars, but that's the most punishment the game will dish out. What DJ Hero is lacking is a practice mode that lets you slow down the music and work it out at a slower pace, as you've been able to do in Guitar Hero for years. You'll wish you could slow things down when you get to the Scratch Perverts mixes in the depths of the track list.
When playing a song you'll find the familiar colored symbols coming towards you as you tap the turntable's face buttons in time with the music. But when it's time to scratch you have to hold down the corresponding button and move the turntable back and forth. On lower difficulty settings you can move the turntable any way you like, but later on you'll have to follow onscreen arrows that indicate whether to push it forward or pull it back. Like Guitar Hero, I find DJ Hero becomes more fun and rewarding on higher difficulty levels.
Then there's the cross fader, which you'll have to push left and right in correspondence with the onscreen audio stream. Think of it like an audio gate: when the cross fader is in the center position the audio from both record A and B is allowed through, but by pushing it to either side you can close the gate on one record and isolate the other audio source.

JockTalk Startup Looks to Boost Pro Athletes' Social Media Leverage
Social networks such as Twitter and Facebook have been a boon to pro athletes' marketing and fan engagement abilities. But even those mega-platforms have limits to their rewards, say the creators of the new social network JockTalk.
JockTalk's goal is to enhance the branding leverage social networks have given athletes, and allow them to directly create income for themselves or charities through digital social interaction with fans. The site was co-founded by former Major League Baseball All-Star Shawn Green and entrepreneur Brendon Kensel.
"We saw there was a gap in the fact that athletes were jumping on social media in droves, but there wasn't a bridge where revenue was being generated on social media sites for the athletes and their charities," Green told Mashable.
JockTalk is launching in private beta this week. It's already convinced an impressive roster of some 60 athletes from major American sports leagues to join. The list includes Kevin Love and Deron Williams from the NBA, the NFL's Wes Welker, pro baseball player Heath Bell, and the NHL's Logan Couture. On the back end, veteran CTO Monte Gibbs is designing the site's architecture.
So how will Love, Welker and company use JockTalk to make money? Athletes will have profiles on the network, as will regular fans. The site will be monetized through ad hosting, member-generated content syndication and a sports-related e-commerce platform.
Athletes will get a cut of that revenue according to how active they are, will be able to decide how much goes to charities they support or how much they want to pocket themselves. They'll also be able to host fundraisers and promotions on-site, as well as videos and other exclusive content.
Athletes' JockTalk accounts will be linked to their mainstream social accounts. They'll be able to send out the beginnings of 300-character posts (JockTalk's maximum) via Twitter, for example, to take advantage of their large followings there and attract visitors back to the site for the full message.
"Players and fans will actually be using their Twitter names, so part of our objective is to create an integrated experience," Kensel says. "We're not asking athletes to change their behavior."
That will be key to JockTalk becoming a success, as there's no way a site a can simply replace the stage Twitter and Facebook have given pro athletes. But if players are able to use those established networks to actually draw significant numbers of their fans to JockTalk, even just for brief visits, Kensel and Green could really have something.
JockTalk is entirely self-funded for the time being, although in an interview with Mashable its co-founders sounded open to taking on investors. An iOS mobile app is expected in June, with an Android version to follow. The site will remain invitation-only for fans for the time being, but don't expect much real barrier for entry.
"Playing pro ball for 16 years, I have a lot of relationships with players and former players," Green says. "Players are very excited and the feedback I'm getting is that there's a need for this sort of thing and the biggest factor for them is what it could mean for their charitable work."
Do you think JockTalk can gain traction in the world of sports and social media? Let us know in the comments.

Wu-Tang Clan is a relationship "killah."
On a recent episode of "Divorce Court" with Lynn Toler, a man named Nathan Sellers accuses his girlfriend Lia Palmquist of having sex with the entire hip hop group.
She admits that she went back stage at a show one night, got on their tour bus and later hung out with the group at their hotel (until 7am!), but she didn't sleep with any of them.
"We were not doing anything but talking," she says, defending herself. "We talked a lot about politics."
But Nathan doesn't believe that for a second.
"She gave Wu some Tang," he says.

Just seen a statement posted on fb from the club
If Walsh doesnt go to then there is something wrong with our board. He is just, if not more, culpable than Koeman
More likely Rooney is quietly moved aside (or used as an impact sub), if you ask me. Sigurdsson is generally a well-regarded player, and he'll be used properly by the new manager, I'd bet.
The whole hierarchy at the club need to take a look at themselves. It's all very well laying all the blame on Koeman and he deserves a lot of it, but we've got a majority shareholder, chairman, chief executive, director of football etc and they should all shoulder some of the blame for the mess over the last 18-24 months, starting right back when we held on to Martinez for too long. Moshiri's making all the right moves off the pitch, new ground, record sponsorship deals, clearing debt etc but on the pitch it's all been a bit of a mess and he comes across as almost a little naive. Koeman was a fairly 'safe' if uninspiring appointment and we even managed to drag that out. His first couple of window's weren't great then having started well with this summer's window they went on to make an absolute mess of it and failed in their biggest objective, replacing Lukaku or at least getting someone of a decent pedigree in. That's before we go down the route of all his stupid conversations with Jim White, the biggest attention seeking bellend on Sky who's absolutely lapping it up.We got Walsh in, who as far as I was aware the manager answers to the DOF yet none of them had the bollocks to walk away from the Sigurdsson deal even though it was becoming clear that we were about to get out pants pulled down to get him and we were still woefully short up front. I've no idea what Steve Walsh even does (scouting trip to Italy proved fruitful) but it's beginning to look increasingly like the story that he discovered Mahrez and Kante (I'm not even sure he did) and Leicester's league win has elevated him to a position beyond that of his abilities. Koeman's rightfully gone and not many tears will be shed but there's a hell of a lot of lessons need learned over the last 18-20 months, I just hope they can as this is now a massive appointment for the club, two managers sacked in 18 months, we can ill afford to fuck this one up as well.
Fair play to Ross Barkley, he's played a fuckin blinder here.
Hes still a fucking scab
Yes, 70 million for Klaassen and Sigurdsson. Shrewd purchases that needed a top class director of football who can unveil hidden gems in the European transfer market.
Both obvious Koeman buys.
That's am even more damming assessment of Walsh. Your basically saying Koeman took the piss and walked over him regardless
