@specialone This was the OSM Staff league...
Not OSM staff league
This was a team from 2009 OSM world championship. Team build up with active and ex staff members and also with Gamebasics accounts.... Almost a decade passed already!

The phrasing “nostalgic manager” sounds very kind. Haha. What makes one nostalgic tho?
-
Them good olden days

@ericdoerustig_nl Something to always remember
-
I'm nostalgic on the Dutch version.
-
@furrax_nl no, you are not. You were annoying but people tolerated you for some reason. Still, not nostalgic

Hello everyone,
How are you doing? Glad to see some familiar people here.
Best of luck!

@Diar-is-the-best Hey buddy, welcome back to the forums

@tommy-timbers Hi Ken, hope you're well! Spurs looking good! Since we last spoke, I believe my team broke the 114 year Scottish Cup curse. What a day that was! My original user was pwhibs62. Sending you my best wishes from Edinburgh!

@wrinkledpaulsack Cheers, Paul! Yes, I'd seen that Hibs had broken the spell. Funny, I was thinking about you when I saw that. And that Sunshine on Leith song gets me every time. We saw The Proclaimers over here a couple of years ago, great night, and every year I've been out here, we've had our annual outing to see North Sea Gas. They're coming back over in September. We're now living in the Pittsburgh area. Still waiting for Spurs to break their voodoo. We've been to a few Pittsburgh Riverhounds games, they play in the United Soccer League, which is basically the second division, although there's no automatic P&R. They are going well so far this season, a point off top spot in the Eastern Conference. Take it easy!

@tommy-timbers It was brilliant. As far as club anthems go, Sunshine on Leith has to be the best. I am probably a bit biased towards my club but it really is special. Hope Spurs can put on a show next season - they're good to watch but surely (Don't call me Shirley! ) this squad is due some silverware.
Hope you are having a good time in Pittsburgh and glad your team are going strong. Really is great to hear from you! Take care

@vinçentó-beçker_nl You can say what you want but I have changed.

I had many wonderful years on this game and, via the forums, made many good friends along the way, who I’m sorry I had to desert a few years ago. I’m glad to see that they are not entirely forgotten - indeed some of you are still knocking about in here!
I will always think of OFM fondly and was pleased to do my bit behind the scenes, as it were. It was largely thankless work of course with no real material reward to show for the hours we all put in (apart from the Christmas card and Doerak plush toy ) and yet I honestly do look back on my days here with a smile.
I must say how sad I was though to hear the news about Frank. Without him, none of these memories would exist. We rarely spoke (on account of Frank and Jeroen being a bit like royalty - except they actually did some work, unlike actual royalty) so our paths didn’t often cross, but when they did he was always friendly, open and grounded. I am thinking of him and his family at the moment, and how far reaching his efforts in life were, in terms of the treasured imprint this game has left on the memories of a handful of people dotted around the globe such as I. It’s a pretty cool legacy to leave. Sleep well Frank.
Gary, Matt, Albino, Ken, Paul, Adam, Diar, Xristos, Ruby - it’s great to see your names floating around albeit under unfamiliar aliases in some cases! I hope you’re all doing OK.
Take care everyone. Till the next reunion

@ed-clarke Nice to see you around Ed!
There's quite some time. How's life treating you my friend? Are you back to some more fun on OSM?

@gary-gomes alright Gary I’ve just created a new account as I can’t remember my old one. How much have things changed. My name was Chrissy Selby I don’t even see how to try and find it on here

@majstor-matt I was in Aces! I’ve just set up a new account to try find my old one. My name was Chrissy Selby or something like that but can’t find my old account? Any help mate?
