The Mignolet to Man Utd one made me laugh Ron :)

Haha probably a bit of both, but each game cost about 50 Singapore cents (maybe 20 pence) back then so skipping meals at recess was a small enough price to pay!
{Ed001's Note - they were a lot more in the UK.}

Thanks Ed, as someone who has addicted to many different versions of football computer games I loved the article. Championship manager 2 effectively ruined my secondary school grades, and I started playing on Fifa94 on the sega 2 where all the players celebrated scoring goals like Pele did in real life (you could actually win games by continually pressing "shoot" non stop so obviously not very realistic back then but still fun. ) It was fun in those days looking for bugs in the game, like Fifa96 where you could use the Long pass and curl it into the goal from around the half way line. You mentioned virtua striker was a terrible game, but it was a game my friends and I were addicted to in the arcades because of its bugs. for example you could score by tapping "shoot" as lightly as possible from the corner of the penalty box and it will slowly roll between the goalkeeper's legs for a goal. That's just one example, there were many and it took a lot of skill to perfect scoring with those bugs! Anyway thanks again for the article, it was fun to read and reminisce about those times! :)
{Ed001's Note - was it skill or money it took to perfect on Virtua Striker?}

Thats hilarious Ed! Yes I was very relieved that the penalty was missed. I might not have dared to go back to Anfield in case I jinxed the next result!
{Ed001's Note - it is not quite as hilarious as Harry's ridiculous assessments of Henderson though.}
