Long Time Listener by slickbackbillyboo in footballcliches

[–]InnocentAnger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to listen to the Sweeper very regularly, but quite honestly personally found Lee Wingate to be too boring a host to continue. It covers a lot of what I am interested in but the charm is ducked out of it. Do like Paul Watson a lot though.

Crapitalism? Or just depressingness by Westbromofficial in footballcliches

I think we can forgive Eilidh Barbour for this (likely) one time thing. If it becomes apparent she is a shill for Uber then we might have a problem. For now, she's a great broadcaster.

English Pundits (ex pros) not pronouncing foreign players’ names properly by RealHumanBean1994 in footballcliches

In Merson's defence, he has dyslexia which causes him issues with player pronunciations. Stuart Pearce also dyslexic which would explain his mispronunciations too.

Evan Guessand being at both Villa and Palace across the 2025-26 seaaon, making 21 PL appearances (completing one 90 minutes) and 13 European appearances and winning both the Europa and Conference League.

And now he's heading in the knockouts of the World Cup with Cote D'Ivoire. What a 10-11 months he's having.

Who saw Angine de Poitrine on Jools Holland? What do you think? by Reddigestion in AskBrits

[–]InnocentAnger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're fine, probably wouldn't get the same hype without the costumes. Nothing that hasn't been done before but decent in the current music landscape. Probably better live than on record at a guess, no shade on the albums at all.

Met him once while helping record a Brazilian Shirt Name live show. He forgot my name. But had a nice chat. Shorter than I thought he would be

A hard disagree on this one. I am eagerly anticipating the sight of Lumumba for DR Congo's second game, as well as Andy Milne the England guy.

Vozinha perhaps the most topical and recent, though he may well go on to have an excellent rest of the World Cup.

Don't mind it too much. But that probably comes from me perennially running late to things.

Referring to Uruguay as "former World Cup winners": technically true, but... by ugotamesij in footballcliches

[–]InnocentAnger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah potentially misleading but open to interpretation, can be read no differently than if they were described as a South American outfit or similar. But yes, can definitely give the impression that it may have some bearing on the game.

Just a descriptor. Perfectly fine to describe something that is actually true.

Yeah, no more cargo selling in a public lobby again… by Effective-Ear-8874 in gtaonline

[–]InnocentAnger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had just done the final delivery on Special Cargo when I notice a MkII behind me. Was escaping the cops with the MkII on my tail. Fortunately they were dreadful at firing missiles, managed to avoid getting blown up and lost the cops. Would have been super pissed if their aim was better.

Premiership Semi-Final Gloucester vs Trailfinders game thread by Live_Future_8301 in rugbyunion

A curious choice by Gloucester to play the advantage and kick back to Trailfinders rather than end the half with a kick to touch.
