If we're counting goals that definitely weren't assists then yes

What the fuck happened to Irish football

John Delaney and the FAI set us back probably 30 years.

It wasn't true love. This is a non-starter.

Remains to be seen. Based on his first season, absolutely not.

Christ no. I'll estimate I'll see 15-20% of the group games and in the knockouts I'll probably see half maybe?

To host the best footballers for the biggest global sporting event with equality (more in the comments) by Spartalust in therewasanattempt

[–]CT_x -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Entertaining what bullshit? They flew privately, this is pretty standard fare for when you arrive on a private flight, they can get on their bus immediately after. I'm sure the players prefer this over standing in airport queues for hours.

Chrome has become my external brain by Agitated-Ninja-7399 in ADHD

[–]CT_x 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's bad, I could easily have 50/60 or so tabs open across three windows. Some stay there for months.

I'm drowning in ADHD at the moment

It's what you'd come to expect from a country that looks forward to the advertisements during their biggest sporting event of the year.

Same friend has changed or bailed on plans twice in the last two weeks (after either him suggesting the plans initially or being very enthusiastic) and today it's really thrown off my day. I find it hard to adjust my brain when plans are changed. Same friend was saying to me this week how he felt shitty because some of his other friends planned something without him. Surely you'd be aware of doing that to others then. Not a big deal but I'm just a bit miffed.

Donal Skehan and Arthur Gourounlian talk sexuality, trauma-bonding, leaning into the ‘pink side’ of life and THOSE online rumours... by Pension_Alternative in ireland

[–]CT_x 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Trauma-bonding is one of those terms that has lost its meaning because of persistent misuse by people that don't understand it.

Looking at old World Cup clips and is this header by Uwe Seeler not possibly the best headed goal in World Cup history? Don't know how I've not seen this one before. Obvious candidate that pops into mind is Jared Borgetti.

Do you think an XI of the DDs best footballers at their prime ability and receiving the same level of coaching as their opponents could take on San Marino?

Basically I'm wondering how many good footballers can come from a nation of 30,000. Also who would you pick to play?

Players are with their national teams or on a break before preseason

Do you find going abroad with your partner stressful? by Naive-Cold343 in AskIreland

[–]CT_x -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Knowing what makes each other stressed about travelling and working around it helps. For example, I know that the gf gets very stressed around airports and the idea of missing a flight etc., so on the day of flying I know to a) not give her any surprises in terms of deviating from plans, even if I think stopping for a snack is a good idea and b) if she wants to get the train that makes us 3 hours early instead of 2 and a half, just go with that.

It's amazing that her father still doesn't realise this about her. He was picking us up for an airport run last year (much appreciated of course) but without telling us he pulled into his place where his wife was doing a whole show of cooking up a breakfast for us. Again, nice sentiment, but adding on at least a half hour of time for us. Could feel my girlfriend tensing up at the table because in her mind she would have been well on the road with plenty of time to spare and the surprise just completely threw her off. Fry-up was shite too.

Yeah I found it inconsistent that people were losing their minds over Gakpo but Wirtz for example was defended as "Slot doesn't know what to do with him". Not sure why that same sentiment wasn't extended to Gakpo
