  1. You may be a prospective buyer, but you are extremely quick to dismiss the views of those who actually own the machine. If I was a prospective buyer I'd want to hear about end user experience rather than watch some YouTube video or read an article. The posters are offering an opinion that you've chosen to dismiss as buyer's remorse in preference to something you've seen on YouTube. What's the point of having a debate if you've already made up your mind? It's not a debate if you refuse to even consider the views of others.
  2. Doesn't it boil down to the fact that they are presenting real life experience using the xbox in their households? It makes no difference that it's not your wife or your girlfriend. Fact is, you don't own an xbox so can't comment as to what it is like to use practically. You are basing your negative opinion on a couple of YouTube videos and a handful of articles. The posters above are merely describing their experiences. If voice control doesn't float your boat then fine, but some might enjoy it. Surely you'd be better spending the time you post on here to actually use your ps4 rather than tell people who have xboxes what is wrong with their console (despite the fact you don't actually own one and therefore aren't best placed to comment).
  3. Relegation? We have 31 points for goodness sake. We quite clearly are not going down. Change the record. Also, why will we need 14 more points? We wouldn't need 45 points to stay up anyway!!
  4. What a joke. Osvaldo you utter idiot. What a waste of money.
  5. Exactly, its hardly like she's taken long to do it (in relative terms). Maybe she wanted to draw up a list of candidates and find out who was available and when before appointing an interim CEO. If our preferred candidate had been available immediately then we might not have needed an interim at all. Again, the competent and responsible thing to do when running a business, only take action when you need to and have considered the circumstances. To call the appointment incompetent purely because it wasn't made on the day Cortese left is a bit silly. If you agree with the move in principal then the timing is not relevant as nothing drastic has happened whilst we didn't have a CEO, but it was clearly a situation that couldn't continue indefinitely.
  6. I just cannot understand what is incompetent about putting an interim CEO in charge whilst you get your preferred choice.....I would love to know how you've come to that conclusion. In fact, many companies turn to their CFO when the CEO leaves until they find a replacement. If we'd have jumped the gun to get someone who was available rather than who we actually want (and I'm confident that's the reason for the INTERIM appointment) that would have been incompetent. KL's actions reflect a sensible approach to running a business.
  7. Exactly. But presumably the experts on here would only be satisfied if we got David Gill in on a temporary basis whilst we waited for Florentino Perez to serve his notice....honestly. Its a sensible move by KL to have someone in the role temporarily who knows the club. Any suggestion otherwise is pure speculation IMO.
  8. It doesn't need to be inspiring, its an interim appointment. We were hardly going to get someone with glowing credentials to step in for a short space of time. We needed to have someone as CEO whilst we approach, interview and then offer the job to external candidates. As if someone with any aspiration would have taken the job on a temporary basis....
  9. Why are we all assuming that's correct? We had several ITKs suggesting a shorter period yet that has been disregarded in favour of some dodgy Croatian article....or am I missing something?
  10. Agreed, it could be something totally unrelated. I hope he's fine but until we know the tweet wasn't re bad news on the injury I'm a bit worried!
  11. Dejan's tweet does NOT sound good at all.
  12. Some people are clearly into Sony fanboyism as well by the look of it.
  13. They only showed one replay on BT as it was so horrible. The replay posted above certainly seems to suggest no contact. I await the MOTD verdict with interest. As others have said, a studs up follow through should up follow through could have been called as a foul in its own right.
  14. I don't agree. He doesn't get it for me on that gif posted above.
  15. Have you watched the replay? Doesn't look like he did get it.
  16. I hope that Brown gets the flack he deserves for that on MOTD. The fact he was being touted as a potential WC squad member after today is an utter disgrace. He's a second rate defender living off the fact he has played for Man U and that tackle just evidences it.
  17. Clear from that replay he doesn't get the ball. Should have been sent off.
  18. Refereeing this season has been a complete joke and there are no repercussions at all. It's actually ruining the game.
  19. Horrible tackle from Brown. Just horrible. I know he got the ball but follow through like that should not be allowed.
  20. Wes Brown you filthy excuse for a footballer.
  21. Lovren looks bad. Oh dear.
  22. Something was definitely up with Lambert the last few weeks. Maybe it was him not wanting to leave and Cortese forcing it through that was the cause (if reports that he wants to stay and the deal is now stalling are true).
  23. I thought he did pretty well when he came on, we certainly wouldn't have made the breakthrough had he not come on. Yes we looked more exposed but that usually comes with the territory when you take off a defensive mid and put on an attacker. I thought GR actually carried out his defensive duties pretty well and looked more eager to get stuck in. I'd give him a run if he has his confidence back.
  24. Probably just bad choice of wording. It doesn't 'sound as if' anything as the statement only seeks to reassure fans about player sales. What he meant to say is 'I have interpreted the statement to mean that...' although quite how he does that I have absolutely no idea. Probably read it in the Sun or Daily Mail, same paper which said Poch was going.
  25. I stand corrected, apologies. However, a quick google search reveals that the accounts of the MALI group companies are available, as are their latest financials so there is information out there, you just have to look for it.
