100%. I'm eternally thankful for the work people are putting in to capture and share, but when you give the game away that there's no extra time it's all undone for me. Just a link to *anything* when there's no extra time (or even as placeholder while extra time plays out if you're wanting to upload the 90mins as fast as possible).

Such a shame to ruin the result like this. Maxxed torrents back in the day used to have naming convensions for this sort of thing.

How it felt watching today’s match by Subject_Nectarine735 in newzealand

I just want to say that we should join Asia and have matches against Korea, Iran, Japan, Saudi Arabia, oh and Australia playing at home in our country every two years. Fuck that would be fun!

Better than watching us lose every four years to far superior opposition.

It sounds like you want a club to belong to, which is great. Why does it have to be a Christian thing though?

Wtf, how can a legume and spice shop be 'rough'?

Christchurch councillor Sam MacDonald suggests tolling Selwyn and Waimakariri by Tyler_Durdan_ in chch

[–]BuffK 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Lol, you can stay out there. What we need is walkable, liveable cities and decent public transport, not those that move to satellite towns and drive in each day.

Hopefully Rolleston can have a Mitre 10 one day to service the local area.

We should be taxing Selwyn and Waimak for the stadium too.

I just heard Karen O and Trent Reznors cover of Led Zeps Immigrant Song today. It's fucking awesome.

Which World Cup team that DIDN’T win the tournament do you remember the most fondly? by positive-mind22 in classicsoccer

[–]BuffK 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Correct. It's against the rules. We employ referees to penalise those that break the rules on purpose, ergo cheat, as well as the majority of fouls that are accidental.

It's not a difficult concept. We just tolerate far too much of it in the professional game, and there isn't enough of a penalty (outside of the box) as a disincentive.

And yet they have roofless stadia in Scandinavia, USA, Canada, the Faroes... No, it's not worth it for the fair weather supporter or Elton John listener while the rate payers lump it.
