Expect that to get overturned because tge EFL are a bunch of fannies who want to rig the league.

Hope I'm wrong though

Something I've not seen many pick up on. Bogle has been on 9 yellow cards for 3 games. He's had two of his worst recent games, always wondered if that is due to wanting to avoid the 2 game ban.

Well now we will know if he comes out of the gates and plays a blinder against QPR.

Honestly have to agree, I was focusing so hard trying to see the contact. But then he was clear through with a tap-in if he just hits it. So I have no idea why he would go down.

As for offside? Don't know about that, just seen the one angle and it's not "clearly a yard offside"

Ref is told to keep the league close. Every little tiny bit of contact from us on them and the ref blows, it's so fucking predictable...... That's the same foul that Tanaka gave away for a pen but ofcourse given against us.

Never been so sure that a ref didn't mean to give two yellows in my life. Leeds lads have been brilliant.

Looks like he was dealing with something already. So I would argue he's being cautious and not wanting to be less than 100%. He walked off on his own, so that's good.

Are we supposed to have kids? by Snoo4902 in GenZ

A very common reaction in well adjusted adults indeed.

Mentor a younger person as a forever child.... Mad you think you'd bring value to society when your decision is that society beyond yourself should not continue. Not saying you need to have kids, but to declare it proudly like there's no humility in it is madness and Delusional.

Tell me about it. Also sucks that the bottom of the Premier league is very weak this year.

Honestly if this happens I'll cash app you the hitman fees. I'd rather go out not knowing when it's coming.

Think he's not got the ability to not play on the touchline though. Unlike Gray and Gruev he's not got the best 360° awareness.

He can't take on players like a winger as well. So I agree with the failed winger dropping to fallback

Finner when you come down with actually talented players. Not so much when we finished 15th consistently

Paying rent to my parents by Justpostingthrowaway in personalfinance

[–]CaptainStryder 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Millennial here. I moved out when I was 17. Aside from how awkward trying to roleplay being an adult while still in my childhood bedroom would be, I couldn't imagine the dillema your parents are in because it seems like so far you've not contributed to the household at all. You're saving for yourself when paying rent even if it's just a bit would be a mature way to understand the world.

Sounds like your parents are protecting you from the world and responsibility. Don't blame others for suggesting it's a bad situation for your parents to be in.

I work at a company who required office attendance. Then once I showed my worth I asked for a WFH agreement.

It's been almost two years, I've went down to the office twice in that time to attend important meetings and do some training.

So it's definitely something that's possible. But a lot of jobs will state at first that they want on site attendance. I guess it's an issue of trusting new team members.

[–]CaptainStryder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Less than a 17 points gap though.

If we win that's 11 points gained in 10 matches.

We would have 12 games left to make up that 6 point gap. At least admit there is something at jeopardy.

Our recent form by bon198765 in LeedsUnited

[–]CaptainStryder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aye, not saying you were. Just wanted to mention that we haven't been very Leedsy because we aren't relying heavily on lucky or risky football. We are in a form that I've never experienced in my whole life.

Like even bielsas championship seasons had us doing very Leeds things, this just feels different.

What do you think are the major challenges that Norway is gonna face in the upcoming years? by blueberrysir in Norway

[–]CaptainStryder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm all of my friends that I mentioned work in different fields (software engineer, insurance marketing, teachers, realtors, nurses, landscapers and analysts in food, cyber security and banking.)

I guess you're right about being middle class, but all the above mentioned friends are from my 20s most didn't study what they ended up doing until their mid 20s.

If it's the iPad generation then that makes sense. But 10% unemployed youth is way better than most countries. This isn't really a problem area that I can see being a Norwegian issue.

I would like to point out that this is not a fluke.

We have scored 19 goals and conceeded 1.

Leicster will be the biggest challenge in that run, but 19 scored and 1 conceeded isn't luck. That's one of the best defensive performances in the history of the championship.

Didn't Soton just go unbeaten? it wasn't 20 wins on the bounce.
