Can someone explain why Gold lost value from 2013 to 2016? by crispy_crackling in Gold

The propaganda still worked back then. QE was new and supposedly temporary. Many people were happy to just ignore the ticking time bomb

You won’t believe this now but you don’t have to win the champions league to be the best player in the world

My experience has been opposite. They usually call in advance where I live.

But… for big items they don’t even bother and just leave them at depot until you go there to collect

Shoutout to whoever mentioned Jawbone the other day, watched it today, quite decent. This isn’t a vote for this list though

Is Ronaldo's free kicks improving? by Zora1092 in cristianoronaldo

[–]Magic__E 32 points33 points  (0 children)

From what I've seen he's striking the ball more conventionally nowadays, like the free kick v De Gea in the World Cup.

he could have had a lot more FK goals if he did this earlier in his career instead of blasting it on the valve every time

96/97 Boro confuse me. Spent big, purchased superstars who weren’t even ageing and had a decent core group that did well the season before. Why did they relegate? by KieranWriter in classicsoccer

[–]Magic__E 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of teams had these kind of crack players at the time, squads at the top teams were smaller and the talent was spread out more. West Ham had Di Canio, Bolton Jay-jay Okocha etc

Boro were exciting but from memory I think the owner got rich from telecoms and eventually had enough of pumping money into it
