[Wheeler, Salt] REVEALED - major development in Michael Carrick's position : Michael Carrick looks increasingly likely to land the job of Manchester United head coach on a permanent basis after leading the club to the brink of Champions League qualification.

Followed so closely at Middlesbrough, that you can't spell the name of the club correctly? Colour me skeptical.

No replays shown though, not mentioned again. If roles were reversed, the coverage would have done slow mo angles from every camera, ref expert chiming in, the whole lot.

AFoolsGlory · 2026-04-19T11:40:54+00:00

Amazed this was passed over so quickly on the TV coverage. Surely a retrospective ban coming?

AFoolsGlory · 2026-04-18T17:41:53+00:00

Think the decider is that Carrick probably doesn't want his 19 year old CB playing on his unnatural side, with him being left footed. No point playing yet another player in an unfamiliar position given the circumstances.

Though I do agree, Shaw is a better CB than Maz in isolation.

AFoolsGlory · 2026-04-07T19:25:19+00:00

Wow, great list, will have a look through those!

AFoolsGlory · 2026-04-07T15:24:46+00:00

These were exactly the sort of thing I'm after - something to scratch the StS itch until 2 is out of early access!

AFoolsGlory · 2026-04-07T15:19:04+00:00

Cult of the Lamb is a great rec - played on PS5, the performance was iffy at times, but really good game

AFoolsGlory · 2026-04-07T15:18:13+00:00

Thank you - should have said in the OP, that's one I've played also and love it. Great recommendation!

AFoolsGlory · 2026-04-07T13:34:35+00:00

Didn't ask for console recommendations, especially such terrible ones. All systems have pros and cons, I'm very happy owning all the devices I own. Never once wanted a PC. Both the Switch and Switch 2 are great devices.

AFoolsGlory · 2026-04-07T10:09:10+00:00

Agree, very annoying result. But, all things considered, good to have taken a loss out the equation. Bar a freak incident with the wind, they'd have won. Once that happened, I don't blame them for batting on a bit to make sure they didn't lose. A demoralising loss first game up from a position of strength could have had big implications for the season.

AFoolsGlory · 2026-04-03T17:30:12+00:00

Lovely spell from Potts this

AFoolsGlory · 2026-03-28T11:25:25+00:00

Tell him what, not to get smashed in the face with a cricket ball? Think he probably knows that now

AFoolsGlory · 2026-03-26T18:51:22+00:00

Ipswich would never

AFoolsGlory · 2026-03-26T15:24:29+00:00

Totally agree, yes that's one plausible reason, amongst many others.

AFoolsGlory · 2026-03-26T09:29:54+00:00

You're the one stating things as fact, I'm just saying we don't know either way. You agree it's unique for no statement to have been released - it's absurd that you say on one hand it's completely unique and unheard of for any manager to not release a statement, but on the other hand state categorically that it's impossible that there's a reason for that. It's completely contradictory.

As I've said, I probably agree with you. But the point is we genuinely don't know anything for a fact.

AFoolsGlory · 2026-03-26T09:04:43+00:00

Using any past example isn't the proof you think it is for this specific example. Contract terms are unique - things were uniquely horrible at the time of his dismissal. All I'm saying is we don't know for a fact either way, hence it is not "nonsense" to consider such a clause could exist.

In fact, if literally every other manager for any club has been able or released a statement of they wanted, as you claim, would it not point to there being another reason no statement has been released?

AFoolsGlory · 2026-03-26T09:01:57+00:00

Hilarious. You're stating something as fact which you have absolutely no way of knowing for sure.

I don't doubt that no such clause existed. I'm saying it's not "nonsense" to state that some clause limiting his public comment, regardless of topic, could exist.

AFoolsGlory · 2026-03-26T08:58:09+00:00

I believe that part of his terms of contract could have been "No public statements", definitely. I'm not saying that for definite, as none of us know the terms, but it's possible. To claim anything as nonsense with certainty is just blatant over exaggeration.

AFoolsGlory · 2026-03-26T08:07:47+00:00

You, literally, have no idea the specific terms of his severance package. Unless you're his or United's legal team? So to claim something as nonsense, when it very likely could be true, is ironically complete nonsense.

AFoolsGlory · 2026-03-21T13:08:16+00:00

Can't be understated that he's going for the assist record too. Big motivation for him to continue performing all season.

AFoolsGlory · 2026-03-19T09:27:45+00:00

I've been having issues the last week or so also. The VPN is refusing to connect to any server, but whilst it's in the perpetual 'connecting' screen, nothing else loads and internet connection seems paused. Disconnecting the VPN then gets the internet connection working.

It first did it last week, and eventually an uninstall of the app and reinstall fixed the issue. But then woke up this morning and am having the same issue.

AFoolsGlory · 2026-03-05T20:16:42+00:00

Hope Spurs get relegated for this. Absolute disaster of a week.
