The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
Due to lack of activity/active players, I have decided to finish the predictions and just change this into a place football can be discussed amongst those of us who follow the sport away from the general chat. I'll probably bring it back for EURO 2012 :)

Forest have gone raiding north of the border again and signed Ranger's winger Barrie McKay for £500,000.
I don't know anything about him, dav2612 what's your opinion on him?
I was surprised at the price as he was promoted, by Warburton himself I believe when Rangers manager, as being worth a few million. He is a good player on his day but that was his issue at Rangers, it didn't always seem to be his day.
New Rangers manager clearly didn't fancy him much but in all honesty I think we should have held on to him.

What a strike from Rooney on his first game in his return to Everton. It's obvious he wasn't happy at Man Utd last season and that showed in his form.
Hopefully for him a return to his boyhood club will rekindle his passion for the game and he'll get back to his best.

Everton and Man Utd have agreed a £75 million fee for Lukaku.
Yes £75 million!
I agree he's a top-class player but is he up there with the likes of world-class players such as Ronaldo, Bale, and Suarez who went for similar amounts? No chance.
I think Mourinho is an excellent manager but if I was a Man Utd fan paying goodness knows how much to see their team play each week and then the club goes and pays way too much for a player like this I wouldn't be best pleased.

What a disaster for Rangers last night, losing 2-1 on aggregate in the Europa League qualifiers to a team of part-timers from Luxembourg, arguably their worst defeat ever.
They did manage to hit the bar three times when the score was 0-0 but when you consider their opponents are ranked among the teams who play in the Welsh league and had lost their other 13 games in Europe, scoring just one goal in the process, you realize just how bad last night's result was.
It's a real shame how far Rangers have fallen from their heyday, when they had world-class players like the McCoist and Gascoigne and Walter Smith as manager. Hopefully they can get out of this nosedive and get back to challenging for the title and cups like they deserve to be doing.
Disaster is the word. Embarrassing would also be very applicable. New manager didn't convince me from his time late season and he is hardly off to a flying start this season. And financially this is a big blow too.

Derby look about to take another step backwards by selling yet another key player, this time Tom Ince who looks like he is off to Premiership new boys Huddersfield.
I thought Derby would have a good chance of promotion this season if they built on last season, but all they seem to be doing at the minute is getting rid of their best players and have yet to replace them.

I think Bournemouth will be a force to be reckoned with this season after the superb signings they've made - Nathan Ake, Asmir Begovic, and Jermaine Defoe, who will all make a massive improvement to the squad both in defence and attack.
It is unbelievable that only a few years ago they nearly went out of the league altogether and now they are holding their own in the Premiership and are looking good to become an established top-tier team.

At last people are going to be tried for the Hillsborough tragedy, 28 years later. Being a Forest fan I know a number of people who were there, but fortunately they were in the Forest area and not in the crush.
However, they did have to witness the terrible events that afternoon before they got out of the stadium and that is something that will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
After the unlawful killing verdict last year I expect a number of the people charged today will end up behind bars.

Prince William and David Cameron along with the FA have become embroiled in this World Cup bid fixing controversy.
