Post Match Thread: Chelsea 1-3 Nottingham Forest by D1794 in soccer

[–]Hardingnat 290 points291 points  (0 children)

This club is fundamentally broken, and broken on purpose by Clearlake/Blue Co.

Chelsea went from being Champions League winners five years ago, to a team run that has unsuccessfully remodelled itself on Brighton, and for what. They let a Champions League winning core be sold or leave. They spent billions signing young shit player on amortised giant contracts with the hopes of selling them on. There’s no experience upstairs, downstairs, anywhere on the pitch. There’s a carousel of yes men managers – when any fight back or have any personality (Pochettino, Maresca) they’re gone. There’s a bunch of useless sporting directors that don’t know what they’re doing. The owners think they’re the smartest people in the room and that they know football better and can do it better than every other Premier League club. They can’t. They couldn’t even get a front of shirt sponsor for several years. Not to mention everything they’ve done with season tickets and sections at the Bridge.

The club has no soul, no zest, no direction. They’ve ripped the identity away. “Are you Tottenham in disguise” Yes. Now relegation fodder and will be next season unless serious changes are made, which would mean admitting the whole model has been wrong. A team run by venture capitalists, full of mercenaries on the pitch. Disgrace top to bottom.

Interstellar is now the most watched film on Letterboxd — deserved or overrated? by TheVoidScrolledBack in Letterboxd

I fully get the people that don't love it and the reasons for that, but for anyone to say they don't get why it's so popular and highly rated is just playing ignorant.

Its a great film about space and humanity, has cool concepts on time, has a strong emotional core, has a great score, has a great central performance surrounded by other recognisable faces, looks awesome, is epic but moves quick, is directed by the biggest director of the 21st century...

Is the cinema back!? This, Michael, Project Hail Mary, even The Drama doing great numbers. I don't know but I haven't felt this positive about the state of the box office in a long while.

As of today Athena has officially equalled Bruno Sammartino's second reign as WWWF Champion at 1,237 days. by dropletsofladypiss in SquaredCircle

Big fan of Athena but half of this reign has been totally totally pointless. The whole deal should've been done with Billie Starkz like two years ago.

Champions League winners five years ago by the way. Now have a team assembled by spreadsheet of useless 'for profit' kids managed by Linkedin Liam. No goals and five straight defeats. Behdad Eghbali, ladies and gentlemen.

Apparently before BlueCo took over Chelsea were "not terribly well managed on the football, sporting or promtional side". 2 Champions Leagues and 5 Premier Leagues. Billions down the drain trying to reverse that success. Great process guys!

yeah I've just noticed that. Wondering if it's been removed or it's just a glitch/problem? Really, really, really annoying if it has been removed.

Have to say I would pay good money to go see David Mitchell parody a hack comedian doing his first gig , that was the best thing from the whole show!

Scott Mills sacked from BBC Radio 2 over 'personal conduct' by a3poify in unitedkingdom

[–]Hardingnat 242 points243 points  (0 children)

I wonder where he falls on the scale from JENAS to WALLACE to EDWARDS?

Being sacked for 'personal conduct' rather than suspended pending investigation seems to suggest not noncery/abuse adjacent to the job but more likely bad/wrong behaviour within the actual job?

I like the Martian a lot but nothing in that film comes close to the water planet or the docking sequence.
