I want to apply for the Crystal Palace job! It would be the ideal possition - I would get paid lots, fail, and then live off the money i earned in that little stint for the next 10 years or so.

Now, I just need to work out how you actually "apply" for it? I'm gonna phone up their reception and ask.

Right - I phoned up Reception - asked for the e-mail address of Mr Jordan (the chairman), and got though to his PA, who gave me her email address.

So would i... "I have a vision..."

If I were in a jazz club at this very second I would have to swivel on my bar stool, look directly at the camera and say "Great!"...

If you don't make it in real life, once they've ironed out all the bugs, Championship Manager 4 is the next best thing! :)

dont buy computer games!! our course has a whole module for gaming, today all the gamers collected in the main room of our floor and played various network games.. as far as i know they'll be there till they get their sorry asses kicked out... it smelled of EGGS in there, people who play computer games smell of eggs... conclusive proof... dont do it vicky or you'll smell of eggs...

CM4 is good, I have only noticed a few changes since the previous ones though, nothing exeptionally good, although i have yet to absorb myself in it

It's quite good Victor, but don't get it just yet - it's so full of bugs they've had to release THREE patches for it so far - and there could be more to come! As for differences from the previous version, there are quite a few new additions (it was rewritten from scratch), but it plays pretty much the same.
