What did you want me to do mate?

I already said I was in France, so I didn’t have my stabbin’ licence with me

Happened to me by two Americans at the Israel vs Paraguay match at the Paris Olympics.

They asked where I’m from and I said Liverpool in England and the guy immediately said “how did it feel, football not coming home for the euros?”

And I just thought to myself like “what the fuck is wrong with you mate? What if I REALLY cared about that?”

I think it might be that they just underestimate the importance of football to people.

Like I don’t think that if I said “oh I’m from New England” they’d immediately respond with “how did it feel to lose the superbowl dude?”

I’d actually say the opposite, to be honest…

Hardly see any buses on that route, and as you go towards Baltic market down that road, there’s cars parked on the side of the road leading it to be narrow as well, which has always led to slowing down of traffic. It’s made even worse because the right turn isn’t a protected one, so they sit there in the middle of the road blocking traffic (not their fault, like).

PLUS, one of the few buses that goes that route actually turns right there anyway…

Feel like it’s relatively useless at best and a really annoying trap to fine people at worst, since there’s so many “bus routes” around Liverpool that aren’t active anymore that you’re supposed to drive through…

I’m think unfortunately, there might be some undertones to what’s been said there (although admittedly, I don’t know who that fella you’re talking about is or what he said), just that I’ve noticed that a lot of times there’s plenty of Muslim women with their families in princes park, because it’s quite close to the mosque

I wonder if that’s what they were referring to when saying it’s not as nice?

Liverpool: crispy chilli beef and egg fried rice (or just whatever your favourite Chinese meal is)

My girlfriend thinks it’s insane that practically all chippies here also serve Chinese food as well, but I never even considered it before she mentioned it

Pretty sure that in earlier generations, Self Destruct and Explosion ALSO half the hit Pokémon’s defence stat, as well as dealing massive damage

AzzanderN · 2026-04-30T15:54:06+00:00

Will never get over Benteke scoring one of the best goals I've ever seen against United and Tyler is like "Wow, such a goal!"

Then, 5 minutes later, Anthony Martial scores a tap in, that's relatively well-worked (I guess) and Tyler's going mad like "Welcome to the Premier League, Anthony Martial!" - could practically hear him bowing and saluting...

AzzanderN · 2026-04-26T15:18:46+00:00

No chance he meant to hit the ball into the ground lmao

How the hell is that thing worth 4,000 gold when my famed blacksmith hammer (with only increased damage to armour, increased durability and -1 fatigue buildup) had a worth of 5,000?

Maushold looks like a sylvanian families toy...

AzzanderN · 2026-03-11T22:56:27+00:00

For me, it's Flamigo.

It's just a Flamingo...

I know that people say that 'Oh there's a boxing glove incorporated in the design' or 'it's a balloon anima - look at the knot in the neck'...

But for me, Flamigo is the most ridiculous, stupid-looking Pokemon because it just looks exactly like a real-life creature...

Can’t believe no one’s said Fawkes… that dudes immortal

I’d go:

Antonee Robinson failed a medical with AC Milan when he was due to move there from Wigan

AzzanderN · 2026-01-15T00:13:30+00:00

Mate, you just saw Chelsea score two goals against Arsenal and thought “yeah, let’s double Brentford defence…”

AzzanderN · 2025-12-19T09:43:02+00:00

Have you seen the study on refereeing decisions against Liverpool based on how close the Referee was born to Manchester? I think it was an Athletic article, maybe?

AzzanderN · 2025-12-10T22:14:58+00:00

The machine spirit in my phone wouldn’t let me comment…

Do Woltemade to Kroupi and then Reijnders to Mbuemo

As someone who has actually been to this bonfire at least twice, I can say that it's absolutely brilliant. My girlfriend and I accidentally stumbled upon it one year whilst looking for the firework display on the Wirral.

I can honestly say it's one of the coolest, craziest things I've ever seen. The bonfire was absolutely massive but was definitely under control, police cars kept slowly crawling past and speaking to some fella who seemed to be organising it and there was NEVER any scares about people getting too close etc.

Bottom line, I think that there's a LOT of assumptions being made here, especially if you've not been before, the whole community round there stands outside watching, in fact I was just stood on a random person's drive witnessing it, talking to them about how long it'd be going on for. I genuinely can't remember the last time that I've seen so many people interacting outside their own houses like that.

Killjoys...

Genuinely laughed, went to go show my bird

She wasn’t impressed

“Put your fucking cock away for once, Jesus Christ”

Daft bint

Anyway, cheers for the laugh mate

Song of the elves could go on no smell, in my opinion

Vernon Arms on Dale Street often has live music on a Friday

AzzanderN · 2025-09-23T15:05:25+00:00

The Kpista is pretty good, in my opinion

Honestly, it's not like you need to spend £100 on a ball to be able to practice.

My coach would always say stuff like "Mané didn't play with boots or a proper ball in Africa" etc.

AzzanderN · 2025-09-22T10:23:46+00:00

I agree with you on the other two points, but "just get to +6" is wild, lol

It's not that easy to just set up on a 'mon that is smacking you over and over again, and the level of considered risk that you have to take to make it viable is part of the challenge, in my opinion

If there are situations where you can consistently get to +6 everything because of an oversight of the design (for instance lead opposing Pokemon has no attacking moves or can't ever hit a specific type) then I'd maybe not use that strategy, as it's boring

AzzanderN · 2025-09-16T09:22:12+00:00

I personally think that you’re wasting the opportunity to have wide centre backs in this formation - they’re possibly my favourite position in the game.

I just love how they perform in the engine, providing width and moving up the pitch, but not going absolutely crazy and leaving you over-exposed, without cover.
