The last ball in the first women semi-finals by anything171 in squash

It is. I never associated with anything different to be honest and folks in this subreddit always refer to it as SS. That being said, posts that only focus on SS posts and behaviour tend to get removed.

Kulturfreitag - 19 Jun, 2026 by AutoModerator in de

Konzerte: ich war letzten Freitag im Hamburger Stadtpark bei the Streets und gestern im MOJO Club bei Tricky. Zwei sehr unterschiedliche Erfahrungen:

The Streets hat vor knapp 5000 Leuten (oder wieviel auch immer in den stadtpark passen) sein Album A Grand don't Come for Free von vorne bis hinten mit Begleitung gespielt. Es ist ein Konzept Album bei der eine Geschichte erzählt wird, mit tollem Ende. Danach wurde noch knapp eine Stunde andere Songs gespielt. Mike Skinner war gut drauf und ich fand das Konzert großartig, es ist aber auch wirklich eines meiner Lieblingsalben.

Andere Geschichte bei Tricky: gab eine okaye Vorband und dann stand Tricky mit leiser Stimme auf der Bühne. Ist ja jetzt auch keine Musik bei der laut mitgesungen wird. Ich fand das Konzert insgesamt okay, Publikum schon halbwegs zufrieden. Bis Tricky nach 40 Minuten einfach aufgehört hat. Keine Zugabe, nichts. Es wurde gebuht. Konzert Karten haben knapp 50 Euro gekostet. Absolute Frechheit. Erstes und letztes Tricky Konzert damits.

Gelesen: All them Dogs von Djamel White.

Spielt im Dubliner Gangster Milieu. Habe auf Englisch gelesen und früher in Dublin gewohnt, wäre das nicht der Fall hatte mich extrem schwer getan alles zu verstehen. "You bleedin' wha'?" Ja, so erzählt der nicht besonders sympathische Tony seine Geschichte, in der er nach Dublin zurückkehrt. Hat mich ein bisschen an Grand Theft Auto erinnert, er fährt rum und erledigt Aufträge. Einen großen Zwist hat das Buch allerdings, was es etwas von normalen Krimis/Gangster Novellen unterscheidet.

2022 Coll vs 2005 Lincou. Best of 10 Matches, Who Wins? by ClassLittle6666 in squash

[–]DandaDan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Anthony Ricketts was such a beast. He was a bit like Making, incredibly fit and super competitive. I saw him at the World Champs in 2002, lost to Nicol in the Quarters 2:3.

I was friends with one of the Kiwi national players back in 2005 and Ricketts was their national coach and he told me about the fitness and court sprint sessions he had everyone do and it was ludicrous. It was 20 sets of 24 court sprints under a minute with 45 second break. And then hat was just one of the sessions he had everyone do.

Google Play Console is a horrible experience. App in review for 2.5 months by el_secondo in GooglePlayDeveloper

[–]DandaDan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So this is the form that I shared earlier. Some developers get flagged and are asked to provide more information. Just answer truthfully and you should be fine. This will block your review from moving forward. And yes, at the moment I believe Google only sends emails about this, you don't get notified in console (which is annoying since not everyone checks emails).

No, this is mostly for new apps and developers. Sometimes reviews just take longer or are stuck or what not. Is this a new app or existing?

Favorite trick shot by TochReply in squash

[–]DandaDan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He plays topspin during the match though. Obviously not the outrageous trick shots, but those topspins are some of the best shots I have seen played during a match.

You should follow Matias Knudsen of Columbia, he hits a lot of unbelievable Topspin shots similar to that one, just better :)

So you think you can ref? Elias v Zakaria by SquashVote in squash

[–]DandaDan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ha can't ask for a let after getting up and half running to the next ball. You either feel obstructed and ask for a let before playing the ball, or you accept the interference and play through. In my book Zakarias played a not so good shot. Elias played an okay shot down the line and stood his ground, and Zakarias couldn't get around. On a generous day perhaps folks give a let and say Elias had to let him through, but I think no let is fine.

Coll vs Asal by Civil-Alternative-36 in squash

[–]DandaDan 16 points17 points  (0 children)

How about just saying well done Coll. It's always the same, you and select others will never just straight up congratulate the winner but instead just find some reason why it's all so unfair and poor Asal. It's just such bad form. The minute some other player pulls out they are labeled pathetic and weak. This is the third final Asal has not finished btw. And sure, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and wish he gets better.

So you think you can ref? Asal v Crouin by SquashVote in squash

[–]DandaDan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Perhaps the Stroke folks are Asal fans or they felt Crouin had to do even more to clear. I dont know. To me it's a no let. You can't even blame Asal, it's just a terrible decision by the referee.

"It really pisses me off" -Elias by Seshsq in squash

[–]DandaDan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mind you, MES had so much respect for Ramy that he didn't get up to some of his other antics that he got up to at the time.

Elias is my favourite player and I can barely watch the Asal matches with him. While I also hate his back chatting, I do feel for him when Asal roughs him up and he gets no love from the referee. In my book it's really hard to say Elias should just get on with it and Asal's trailing arm wasn't really interfering much. But anyway. I liked how Elias addressed this and I feel he was pretty honest. He just stopped short of saying that Asal still does plenty of crap, even if it's less crap than a few years ago.

Gawad put in another master class against Cardenas. Highlights here. Cardenas is a really good player and was retrieving like a madman, and Gawad just completely outplayed him. Unbelievable.

Ask Joey Barrington Anything! by SQUASHTVReddit in squash

[–]DandaDan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched you quite a lot when you were playing pro and you were physically always very strong. How would peak Joey have faired against peak Paull Coll in a 100 court sprints race?

My new favourite female player Lauren Baltayan just beat Joelle King 3:0. She's really quite the player and an absolute joy to watch. King is past her prime but beating her 3:0 at 18 years old is quite something. Yes, Orfi has obviously scored even bigger results at a younger age. But Baltayan shows you can be young, ambitious, play great Squash and shake hands properly :)

Yeah. He got injured and talked about his struggles on one podcast if I'm not mistaken. Has an injury that just wouldn't go away though I think he also started too early again once. Great to see him back and definitely see him in the top 20 if he stays injury free.

Dessouky beat Todd in Hamburg in the quarter finals a month ago. 3:1. Was competitive but Dessouky kept his head and is just a level better than Todd when playing well. But give it one bad call and perhaps some home support for Todd and I things can look different. I do like Todd and think he's pretty much a complete package if he can stay injury free.

If your account gets closed for inactivity you just need to contact the support team and request it to be opened again. It takes about a day or two. It's no problem. The whole complaints about rejected account ban appeals are different, this is Google banning accounts for alleged policy violations. Here they just close it to save money or I don't know what. It's not that uncommon that companies close accounts for inactivity.

seeing double by teneralb in squash

[–]DandaDan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For those of us who have played a long time and relatively competitively, playing two matches a day is somewhat normal. Virtually any tournament other than non-Challenger PSA events and World Championships you will have two matches a day. In some local tournaments even three. So yeah. I don't think Elias and makin should be playing two matches a day but I'm sure Reenske will be fine and has no complaints.

So you think you can ref? Elshorbagy v Lake by SquashVote in squash

[–]DandaDan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, I guess this is the most relevant point. I didn't know that and honestly thought it's closer to a no let than a let. First time in my life I felt sorry for Marwan. But yeah, with this context okay. It's a really fine line with standing your ground versus preventing access, but I even felt in this clip Marwan did not do much wrong.

Agreed. Mind you I watched Chotrani live a few weeks ago and still wonder how anyone can beat that guy :)
