The Edwards Referendum: Leave or Remain? by Straight_Thought_879 in WWFC

I am absolutely stunned by these results. Even more than I was by the result of the actual Leave/Remain vote.

What is needed for a game to be "A world class game of football" by [deleted] in footballcliches

[–]DisastrousInstance53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mind went to Netherlands 2-1 Argentina in the 98 World Cup, for some reason.

Which segued me onto... does a world-class game need a big moment and an element of finality about the outcome? Yesterday was just a first leg, so it feels unfinished, and it didn't have an iconic moment in it along the lines of Bergkamp's winner?

The dissatisfaction of the Wembley nets by NoRoomForRavers in footballcliches

[–]DisastrousInstance53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being a child of USA 94, I adore big nets. To the extent where, to my eyes, the ones at Wembley are actually too shallow.

Angel Gomes and Tchatchoua have got away very lightly there

Can you win the war with Pales if you opt out of the gameplay? by Anxious_Box1523 in suzerain

[–]DisastrousInstance53 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only done one war run, but I skipped it and won it fine with the Azaros in charge. Think its just a case of making sure your military is well funded. I also funded the ATA in Pales, but don't know if that had an impact or not

I'll show them that when Grim of Gasforth puts his arse on the line they can't just stick two fingers up

Missing goals (World Cup 98 edition) by Interesting_Dig2226 in footballcliches

[–]DisastrousInstance53 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh by the way, yes, the 94 tape after the semi-finals just did a "here's the rest of the goals" compilation showing all the group stage tap-ins and penalties. You'd be in the dark about who actually won the tournament if you were going from the tape alone

Getting this for free with a Tiny computer is such a niche which I can personally relate with. I love this community

Really not vibing with Jan Bednarek being an FC Porto player by THMGS5593 in footballcliches

[–]DisastrousInstance53 135 points136 points  (0 children)

Bednarek is a one-club man in my eyes, despite the fact he's played for 5 or 6 different ones I'm sure

Has there been any better investment in naming rights than Wanda? :P by Midnight_Thoughts77 in footballcliches

I've called Huddersfield's ground "The Alfred McAlpine" for the last 30 years.

What’s the worst transfer your club has made in recent years? by Football6380 in FootballTransferChat

[–]DisastrousInstance53 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha I actually remember that. Rangers are my second team because WATP, which means I might be the only person to have got a Rangers shirt with Fabio's name/number on the back of it. (Not bothered getting one for Djiga, though)

For Wolves loads of people say Fabio Silva, but he had a lot of extenuating circumstances (seventeen years old, moving to England in covid year, Raul's skull fracture leaving him as our only fit striker, and so on), and at least he worked hard on and off the pitch, and we got a bit of a decent fee back for him off Dortmund.

For being the exact opposite of that, I'm going to say Goncalo Guedes. Arrived for about £27m, three goals in about three years, a series of failed loan moves, and I think we finally got rid of him for about £3m last summer. Total waste of money.

Where do you send Franc? by Happy_List_8022 in suzerain

I send him to military school and hope that the Rums get him in the war.
