When Football Manager became more than just a game The beta version of the latest Football Manager was released recently.

Not really shared this on here - but I’ve always been open about my mental health (and my absolute love for Football Manager).

So here is a piece on how the game helped me through one of the most difficult periods of my life.

MASSIVE Hat tip to @curtisfrye.com who is on here we notice, btw.

Curt creates brilliant Excel courses on both LinkedIn and Youtube. He is worth a follow and learning from.

the classic 'distracted boyfriend' meme image. Man is looking at a woman in a red dress while his girlfriend stands behind him, powerless.

Compare and contrast. Note that the girlfriend here is shown as looking on helplessly, whereas in the "gender flipped" version we posted before it's fine for the boyfriend to be pulling her away.

Anyway. If they ask, pretend we said something about football here. Otherwise Commercial get cranky.

If you're a police officer reading this and those benches go missing one night it absolutely wasn't us.

Honest guv.

Still there, but very much at risk now.

If nothing else, we'd like to execute a midnight raid to retrieve the benches from the dugout, which are still there.

They're actually the dugout seats from ORIGINAL Wembley, purchased by the then Leyton owner during demolition.

shutterstock photo showing man in green shirt walking away. A woman in blue is giving him a very demeaning look (as per the original distracted boyfriend meme). Her boyfriend is giving her a look and has his arm round her, moving him away.

There's actually a 'distracted girlfriend' version of this meme, we noticed.

It has one key difference: in the original (distracted boyfriend) the girl is looking on in confusion. In 'distracted girlfriend' the man has his arm around her and is pulling her away.

There's a whole TED talk in that

Shoutout for the Leyton Orientear.

A fantastic fanzine for Leyton Orient. Always a friend to Seaward back when we were the original Leyton Orient Ladies.

We are not surprised at all that they were an early mover over here. They care about both football's past and its future. Give them a follow.

We still have our eye on the old stadium just up the road from that (the old Leyton FC ground).

It'll never happen, but we can dream.

Both this story and the way it is told should remind us that there is nothing truly new under the son… #COFC #LOFC

In totally unrelated news, have you ever noticed how men apparently invented everything?

The distracted boyfriend meme.

Over the girl in the red dress is written "bluesky". Over the man who is looking at her behind in a stunning but absolutely not unusual or unexpected act of everyday sexism is written "men's football clubs who think they're trendsetters".

Over the blue-shirted girlfriend who is looking at him in annoyance (you can absolutely do better, girl. we believe in you) are the words "women's clubs already here"

Tbf the 'excellent football' has been a stretch recently, due to a lot of upheaval in the summer, but we're now back on track now! 😆

You should follow @londonseawardfc.com because they play excellent football. But ALSO because they let you know about covers like this one.

Blimey.

We spend a couple of weeks focused on appointing a new manager, and when we get back there are millions of people on here now.

Just call us first-movers!

Alex is fantastic.

We should put up footage of her amazing save the other day. We'll see if we can download it from our stats software!

Never run a football club gang.

I cannot explain how high the highs are, and how low the lows feel.

If you're a FEMALE punk band who wants to do this and let us run out to it, then good god seriously get in touch.

We will have your babies.

Or at least stroke your hair affectionately and pretend to listen when you talk about how base guitar is a valid instrument.

London Seaward 5 - 0 Stanway Pegasus in the FA Cup today.

A much needed win.

Don't mind us. We'll be in the clubhouse with this punk cover on repeat.

We asked our left back to confirm that she is okay and ready for the cup on Sunday. Her reply:

"My ankles are still in north London. My heart is back in East London and ready to go."
