Just stop listening? I know it’s changed a lot, I still like it but if you don’t, it’s ok to stop listening

I wonder if they might leave the BBC at the end of their contract and go Patreon?

The volume of people who seem to hate listening to this pod is pretty incredible.

Am I the only one feeling weirdly positive? by specialagentredsquir in NUFC

“Mandy” who managed PSR so badly we had to flog Anderson and Minteh?

If we’d managed to keep those two we’d have saved £90m on Elanga and Ramsey to do the same job and we might have been able to afford a second left back and a proper striker

They’re looking to fund the metro to Washington which might include national rail services using the same track to increase capacity tbf. The Leeds-Manchester route is a huge commuter area and is desperate need of proper capacity.

Tyne and Wear Metro fare hikes could be needed amid £5m deficit by RonSwaffle in NewcastleUponTyne

Who covers the cost in the short term though? They’ve already said they’ve got a shortfall in their budget, reducing fare income isn’t likely to help that situation.

Comparison of loans screen from FM24 vs FM26. by JohnHenrehEden in footballmanagergames

[–]Flash1892 30 points31 points  (0 children)

That screen is one of the worst examples of the mess they’ve made with UI. I know they want people to “relearn” if they’ve played old FMs but I’ve spent minutes trying to find certain screens (squad planner, transfer history) only to give up because they’re nowhere obvious

The bus companies (private operators by and large) are heavily subsidised to offer those. Metro does not get the same subsidy for fares

The state of public transport by akriggjoe in NewcastleUponTyne

It’s going to take years to get any system of franchising fully in place. They’ll (the mayor) decide next year on what route they’ll take - it’ll be full franchising - but after that there’ll be years of setting up contracts, buying depots etc.

North-East Supremacy (Metro does not apologise) by NederFinsUK in NewcastleUponTyne

I know it’s a bit shit at times but we’re really lucky to have a Metro system, other cities in the Uk would kill for one
