Manifest have a football team and we’re TOO HOT TO HANDLE. Well, we’ve won three games from three to date, which is, without doubt, Wednesday Powerleague Business League Division Two championship form. Can we build on our early success? Can we gain the promotion that our potential suggests is well within our grasp?

There is only one way to find out!

That’s right, given Sky Sport’s baffling decision NOT to televise the Wednesday Business League Division Two matches this season (s’all politics, you know?), you will instead have to make to with Richard’s detailed weekly match reports. Now, you might feel that his status as a team member of said football team might make the reports somewhat biased. However, you will be please to hear that his reporting will be objective, reasoned and subjected to the highest standards of intellectual, journalistic rigour when describing encounters between the glorious, fluid football stylings of Manifest FC and the whichever team of cheats we are playing from week to week.

We love Spotify playlists in the Manifest offices, so much so that we’ve decided to set ourselves a little challenge to create topical (but also foot-tappingly awesome) weekly playlists.

This week’s theme is (obviously) Halloween. Currently, the playlist is empty as we all rack our brains for tunes. This is where you come in. Send us your suggestions via the blog, facebook page or tweet us using #manifestunes and we’ll add them to the list.

We’ll then publish the playlist this Friday for you aural pleasure.

Last month the northern office waved goodbye to Huddersfield and said hello to the brand spanking new Leeds office, located right next to the Leeds Liverpool canal.

After 6 years at New North Road, things were starting to get a little cramped, so we upped sticks, packed crates and made a hop, skip and jump down the M62 to Graingers Way (conveniently located right next to a well known wine merchants – score!).

It didn’t take us long to ‘Manifest’ the place up, either, check out the rest of the office after the jump.

…make us biscuits.

Thanks Heather! We all love them (tho Mike’s asking where the RGB equivalents are…).

It’s here! It’s here! The World Flippin’ Cup is here! And to add a bit of spice, we’ve done a Manifest sweepstake.

Who will win? Well, my money’s on Ghana. Literally.

Curses.

We’re having a bit of a brand refresh at the moment, and the first thing to get a tweak is our monthly newsletter The M.O. With a simpler layout and new features, it’s the perfect round up of what we’ve been doing and what’s got us talking.

You can sign up for The M.O. here.

Mashable’s 10 Adorable Apple Themed Baby Accessories.

Seriously, this is basically my wish list for Baby Farrar-Smith (who is 5 weeks away…)

Brazilian illustrator Rubenslp updates his site.

Breathtaking work. I am so jealous.

Finally, if you like Helvetica, you’ll LoveHelvetica

A posterous site full of everyone’s favourite Swiss font.

It’s quite refreshing to see, but when you break it down it’s not that controversial and wouldn’t be out of place on Tarrant on TV. More videos here & here.

Si Scott Studio.

Seems like years have gone by since he’s updated. Now he has and his site’s still full of the amazing, mind blowing work we’ve become accustomed to.

Citizen Mag

Not my cup of tea content-wise, but damn if the flexible / collapsible grid didn’t make me smile… Go on, give your browser a resize…

Snugfits

Right, so this is a bit biased on my part, as my wife is due to have a baby in, like, 6 weeks, so forgive me – but how cute is this?!
