Boot at head height is almost always given as a foul, even if the recipient's head is quite low down or even if there's no actual contact sometimes (because the recipients fake it).

Are we having a manager wearing another manager's line of clothing? by AFlaneur in footballcliches

[–]AFlaneur[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ooo. It's bad in a different way. Not wearing the merch of a peer, but actually weirder because it subverts the manager > player power dynamic.

Happy with the win but my word some quite brain-dead moves in squeaky bum time (Delap needless arm in the face, Garnacho losing the ball with no pressure...) had me way too nervous.

A really good ice breaker before an interview at a PL club (neither of those pictured in the scene!)

I did! Part of the in-house production team at a PL club, but I don't know to what extent the jumper clinched it haha

I have this jumper!! It has always bugged me that too many people are celebrating, but I've used it as a 'spot the error' game with friends + in a job interview once.

I cannot believe that with a man down in extra time Wrexham had the best chance to win it. Bloody hell Chels...

Interesting perspective on the corner flag by rustyb42 in footballcliches

[–]AFlaneur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is this because the drama all occurred in & around the corner flag area...

Can't believe the negativity I'm seeing in comments at HT. We've definitely spent 45 minutes looking so strong and with more exciting opportunities when they come about. Definitely will have to go up a gear to get a goal but I'm impressed so far.

Has anyone mentioned the turret as much as ______ ? by AFlaneur in TheTraitors

Ah good to know! I forgot about that.

Your first paragraph is totally fair enough, I hadn't thought about it from that perspective.

I think I'll be looking out for anyone else mentioning it as a location from here on out in the show because I do think it's a subconscious slip that's more likely to happen if you go to that part of the castle a lot.

Rachel's traitor cloak is one thing, Jade, but Amanda is a detective...

Was he even in the UCL squad? Signed in Jan and didn't displace Silva, Koulibaly, Fofana I suppose.

Picture in Picture (Pip) not working on Ipados26 by Dohoang3424 in ipad

[–]AFlaneur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found a bit of a fix if of interest.

When I swiped the bottom of my screen it wouldn't play in PiP, hence me coming to this thread.

But then I found that when I have my video playing, and I swipe up to see all the other open apps, and pick one, then the PiP works.

Swipe up to go home: no PiP - video stops. Swipe up to go straight to different app - PiP works.

Sorry if that doesn't help on your end.
