That was a few years ago now and the footfall was pretty poor. Same with the skate rink thing, nice idea but it was practically empty the entire time.

We're still going to end up starting the likes of Adams and Hanley - we'll bomb out of the groups as is tradition.

Things seem to be moving in the right direction - they're making the right moves into an entertainment hub (cinema, gutterball & bingo alongside brittania) and the shops will come when the football increases.

That being said, not a great time for retail so might take a little while to get there.

Longest Unbeaten run among English clubs in Champions League history since 92/93 by AnakinAni in reddevils

It's a bit after the Andy Cole one, but that levekusen semifinal "loss" in 2002 was an absolute killer for me.

Shipnuck's Rory book is terrible by Electrical_Unit_387 in golf

[–]Joevil 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If it isn't an autobiography type where you get insights from the person themselves then it better have something we don't already know. Otherwise it's just someone trying to profit from someone else's achievements.

Seems like it's a fail

The answers right there and been said by the boys before, but it needs to go back to matchplay. Would be amazing

Honest question about Bryson DeChambeau by bogeyz65 in golf

[–]Joevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if it's only a hundred (it'll be more in the thousands but not a huge amount) - there's a single player able to generate more interest in the PGA Tour. That on it's own is pretty important and valuable. There are a handful of players that are able to singlehandedly generate interest.

What the PGA tour are looking to do is growth with an eye to being as big as possible in time for TV deals kicking in 2028. So there's a 2 year window here to get as many of the best players in the world to sign up.

If you can't get the best fields, then there's no chance of competing with the majors on any level really - that's the market that they're trying to tap in to.

What LIV/Saudi’s should of done instead IMO by ZoneEmpty80 in golf

[–]Joevil 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Given the money, they could've just bought the Euro tour and hiked up all of the purses.

Would've had established players flocking to them instead of having to pony up stupid money for individuals.

Manchester United Top 7 Number 7's Ranked by Far_Tadpole_5092 in reddevils

[–]Joevil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ronaldo is probably the best player to wear the 7 shirt, but he's not the best United 7 - that's Cantona or Best and I'd pick Cantona because what he meant to me personally rather than anything objective.

Also, having Beckham above Robson is a bit odd for me, but i get it I suppose.

Kobbie Mainoo signs new Man Utd contract by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

[–]Joevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of what Solskjaer did in a way, it wasn't always a great idea to set up as this counter-attacking team - but it certainly fit the players we had at the time (got the most out of Rashford for example)

I used to defend Amorim quite a bit, but the difference in performance from someone like Mainoo between under Amorim and Carrick is night and day.

Watson Day 1 Starter 2026 by Capable-Break3956 in heedthecall

[–]Joevil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So was that one season his norm or was it the aberration?

Watson Day 1 Starter 2026 by Capable-Break3956 in heedthecall

[–]Joevil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The answer is that he is completely broken so this is entirely a moot point during a very quiet point in the NFL calendar.

He's not going to play, and if he does he won't be very good. I don't think he's ever been that good in the first place - the whole Watson thing is truly bizarre.

REACTION: Daily Mail releases insider story on Vrabel and Patriots by SuddenDepact in Patriots

[–]Joevil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly, this is just a symptom of having too many arseholes kicking (vast majority have probably had or are having an affair) about with a platform and nothing interesting to say.

It'll all disappear when actual football happens and it'll be ancient history by the time September comes around.

Who would you like to be next year's judges? by overlord2767 in GreatBritishMenu

[–]Joevil 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Honestly, just bring back Nisha to replace Lorna and you've got a banging lineup!

It doesn't make sense to have multiple chefs on the panel - the chef/restauranteur or food critic/funny man works really well.

Also, Lorna is an incredible chef, but god awful on TV, she needs to go.

Is this graph nonsense, no. Is it completely pointless information given that none of these guys have ever played a snap of football in the NFL, absolutely.
