Let's face it, we've all been there. Overcome by the pure, unfettered rage that can only be produced when your Football Manager game just won't play ball.
Unfortunately, the red mist got the better of Bournemouth defender Steve Cook this week, with the 25-year-old succumbing to a fit of fury after conceding a devastating last-minute goal.
Cook then posted a photo of the aftermath -- the shattered, splintered remains of his laptop screen -- on social media for the world to see.

There was little sympathy forthcoming, least of all from Football Manager themselves, who joked that Cook is now in serious danger of missing the Cherries' first game with a busted hand.

Steve, we feel your pain.
