I started a football related database in about 2006 and it's comprehensively pointless. It's an Excel spreadsheet with six tabs documenting every...

* Every player I've seen play (From Tier 1 to Tier 5)

- In order of seeing them
- Clubs I've seen them play for
- Amount of times I've seen them play/score/booked/sent off/own goal
- Nationality
- International representation and tournament summary
- Domestic honours
- Career history
- Additional notes

* Every fixture (over three tabs so I can filter more accurately)

- Date
- Level (I count tier 1 - tier 5, Friendlies + Benefit matches etc...)
- Attendance
- Referee
- Line ups (Inc. subs not used)
- Additional notes

* Every manager

- Similar tab to the players listing their managerial achievements or lack there of.

* Team overview

- Kind of like a league table based on how many times I've seen them play.

Wow, you truly are king of geeks. Cool I can imagine something like that leading to an obsessive disorder!

I didn't think I'd be judged within this thread Smiley It's not something I usually broadcast.

In some ways he's complementing you on your geeky OCD Costanza. You are indeed a geek amongst geeks.

Geeks don't judge. They just try and find a way of out-geeking said geek.

I played Championship Manager 01/02 to the end of the game.

I played Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on a yearly basis.

I have watched all 22 James Bond films back to back to back to back.

The most listened to tracks on both my iPods are wrestling entrance themes.

Last year I listed all my DVDs and watched them in order.

I have 23446 posts on this very forum.

Didn't mean to offend Costanza, far from it. I'm in awe of you really.

DV - you take things to a whole new level as usual. Partial to a bit of Bond myself!

Phew. Here are some screenshots of two tabs... Regular TEF'ers will note the amount of colour. It all makes sense now, right?

I think it might have been our very own family ben who first posed the question as to whether it was possible to watch them all - so I gave it a go...
