Please give us your best Chuck Norris gif / or joke to be allowed to continue. Here's one from me: I once heard Chuck Norris went into Burger King and asked for a Big Mac, not only did he get one but he got 2 Big Macs!

I'm probably in the minority but I actually don't mind international management, it makes the game go quicker with less matches, but is very watered down. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner86 Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I'm the same, my save now is at the point where I can't conceivably finish a season in the time before Beta (pronounced Bayta-GLAVEN!) drops, so I've reverted to Civ (which I also probably won't finish before the B-bomb drops) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dagenham_Dave Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 I spotted MIles outside my local ASDA this morning, so I can confirm the Beta will definitely drop today. Or it might have been the pint of milk he was holding. I don't even have a local ASDA. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
