I told my brother this morning I'm on the last ever Walking Dead episode and he said to me, "Worth it?"

My reply was if shouting at the TV for the last 10years at these dumb fucks is thought of as worth it, then yes!

Do you think?  What's he bitter about?  I tend to listen to him on talksport rather than MOTD but when asked he gives an honest opinion and doesn't just phone it in like lots do.  I do like when he talks about previous managers he played under as well and what it was like in the dressing room.

I did have to laugh yesterday when Danny Murphy was asked on TalkSport if he’d have taken the offer of Beckham’s £10m. “100%”. Nice for Qatar to know they can fall back on that dour prick who couldn’t book a supermarket opening should it come to it.

I like Danny Murphy.  He's honest and talks a fair bit of sense.  He's not an exciting sounding pundit for sure.

Erm... Yum yum?

 

So that and a pint of shit beer for £20 if you're daft enough to actually attend the tournament.  

Maybe don't order a fucking Greek salad in Qatar?

The writing in this half of the season seems slightly better than usual.  I know I know, not saying much!

How many more are there? just watched episode 22 and 23 back to back which is unusual in itself as watching one on its own is just about enough!

It's a bit bullshitty from Southgate but both Maguire and Phillips have turned up for England consistently in the past, Abraham hasn't.

I think if we had real quality to replace those two, you'd hope he would have.

Yes, balance looks ok (still need another left back) but quality is what it's about.

Our defence is very poor.

You don't want Cresswell, trust me, not unless you fancy seeing someone get recklessly sent off in the quarter final.

😅Henry then?

Anyhow.  The squad is pretty much as expected with a couple of minor surprises. 

Fair points @Fox but I think taking a right back as the only cover to a (not great) left back is risky.

Toney not going leaves a injury prone Wilson to fill in for Kane if necessary.  Again risky.  I just think taking all 3 would have been a wiser choice and leaving Gallagher out

It's not a surprise but I think not taking Toney is a bad idea.

Not sure why we need Coady when another left back (Henry/Cresswell) would have been better.

Surprised by Gallagher but happy Maddison is in.

Danny Mills talking absolute nonsense on the radio as per usual.

Spouting the old "He's never let England down" when talking about Maguire.....has he seen the last few times he's played for England in lesser games 🤔

The priciest PS1 game is a banger! 🤣

Outrun 2006 Coast 2 Coast is a weird one.  Worth about £2 on PS2, more like £60 on Xbox.

I believe the Japanese release is nowhere near as rare but comes with the same art book.  If you can find one, pop it in your box and the value goes up.

 

Someone told me the whole CEX system is based on sellability of stock.  So for example, they get Castlevania traded in and they sell it for £50.  Every copy that gets traded in sells really quickly and the system notices and puts the price up. This keeps going until the sales slow down but don't stop. Likewise if the stock sticks to the shelves the price comes down until it shifts.  I think it means that Castlevania in CEX is £500 because it actually does sell in CEX stores for that.

 

 

That's interesting, thanks for this.  Might be worth selling now then while the price is high.

Oooh that's tempting...

.not the buying you a beer part!

Yeah, I've heard a number of people talk about it today on the radio and it seems they are jumping to conclusions! 

That'll be fun!

At least we can't meet them in the final.

Especially now they've got rid of the manager. 

Oh, didn't realise they had!!

Six points from this and Southampton can hopefully set us up to rediscover ourselves after the Sportswash Cup 

Let's be honest, we win this then we lose 1-0 to Southampton 🤣

Pretty good. Why was that cheap? Some guy in New Zealand bought it. I'll send you pics if you want.

No I was thinking more whether mine would sell (If my Dad hasn't thrown it out!).

But is there not more chance that later in the tournament they end up with them facing each other?

I'm sure the last few years it's been a lot of Spanish and English sides in the last 8.

Thanks all.  Do you think it's worth keeping hold of or just cashing in while the price is pretty high?  As much as I loved the game I'm never going to go buy myself an old TV and play it again, so it'll likely just go back in a box for another 10 years.

Hi guys.

I've recently been going through my old games and found a few interesting ones like Vib-Ribbon, Ray Tracers, Bishi Bashi Special and Castlevania Symphony of the Night.

Am I right in thinking Castlevania is rare and worth a fair bit?  It's the Limited edition PAL version, with the CD soundtrack but without the art book (I don't remember ever having it).

I've got a fair few other games (PS1,PS2,SNES) too, is it worth trying to sell on rllmuk or am I better just getting them on Facebook?

I just sold Monkey Island 2 on eBay for £140, so probably.

Wow!  What sort of condition was it in?
