Setra M100RTL reregistered as BX04NAA and sold to KIS Coaches, Northampton.

Can't remember where we discussed this before, but the finalists for this year's awards are out now:

The 'Live Map' has discussed regularly, and although it's a UK-wide thing, I'll still put it here...

The map on the website still updates in 'real time' - not like the mobile phone app!

Walking back home about 10 Minutes ago and I hear a Loud Screeching Sound, so I turn around as thought something had happened only to see the Driver of the W5 rather quickly attempt to do a U-Turn at the Bottom of Lambton as he had taken a Wrong Turn, Easy mistake to make when your Driving a Cadet, Must of thought he was doing an M2/M3.

2 new Enviro 300s have arrived at Stockton, with 2 more due very soon

39728 is today's MAN offering on service 4.

Perfectly standard operation as it works an X1 morning/evening.

They seem to have a Mecca bingo contract in Gateshead.
Presumably linking punters from Shields, after theirs shut down.

I am aware there is a Thread for Football and Gaming already on NEB, But as Fifa 15 which is out Friday 26th September 2014 covers both Topics, I thought by Fifa having it's own Personal Thread it would eliminate having a Conversation spanning across different Threads, in turn forcing Members to look at both to read about the Game, Hope the admins don't mind as I am sure they are Fifa fans also.

With this Dedicated Fifa Thread there is plenty of scope for Conversation such as:

- Gameplay: What's your favorite parts of the Game, Could be anything from Graphics to Different Game Modes i.e. Career Mode or Ultimate Team.

- Team and Player Recommendations: Have played with a Team or Player in particular that you were amazed by, if so please share, whilst we on the Topic of Player Recommendations I have found a Website with all the Players/Teams/Ratings and Statistics you'll ever need, it is the perfect scouting tool I think, having used the site in Fifa 13 and 14, http://www.futhead.com/

Continuing on here are the Official Player Rating for the North East Teams

Sunderland - http://www.futhead.com/15/career-mode/clubs/sunderland/
Newcastle - http://www.futhead.com/15/career-mode/cl...astle-utd/
Middlesbrough - http://www.futhead.com/15/career-mode/cl...lesbrough/
Hartlepool - http://www.futhead.com/15/career-mode/clubs/hartlepool/
Carlisle - http://www.futhead.com/15/career-mode/cl...le-united/

I would also Recommend watching the following Youtube Videos by (mgh) to find Players also, I find his Videos to be quite helpful on the following link - https://www.youtube.com/user/Playstation3GamingHD - There are Numerous Videos already Uploaded to his Account for Fifa 15 covering the Best Under 23's/19's and 18 Year Old Player in the Game, You also have the Richest Clubs in the Game etc along with a few other Videos, This stuff could be very helpful when deciding what Team your going to be and which player to Buy, no doubt the Majority of Users from the NE will be one of the above Teams, unless they are "Glory Seekers". Think that all but covers the above for now, if I see anything else I will edit this Post and add it in.

Youtube or Personal Videos: This topic of Conversation could be quite Entertaining for all Members as it gives us the Opportunity to Laugh at each others Funny Videos when something goes wrong in the Game i.e. Players having a Wrestling Match when they come tangled together after a Tackle, which was quite common in Fifa 14, on the flip side this could be used to show off Goals you have scored whether it has been a Screamer for 30 Yards or a Superb Attacking Move from Box to Box ending in a Goal, it's Entirely up to you.

Can think of any other Talking Points atm, But if you have any PM me and i'll edit the Post, Hopefully this will be a Successful Thread over the coming Year.
