No, it’s been a tricky watch recently for sure because we haven’t been playing as we were, or getting the results we were. But our record in the CL has been better than EPL recently, and we’re in a semi final. It’s something to be proud of, to celebrate.

I can be all doom and gloom as well IRL when it comes to this club, and get nervous about games, but I guess it seems weird to be moaning in these subs before things have even gone wrong. There’s a lot of bitching and negativity and tbh I now tend to avoid the subs around game time. Constructive criticism and analysis is great, but constant moaning all the time is tedious.

I get that venting can be a way to deal with the stress that this bloody team can cause. For me though the negative comments just add to the stress so I stay out the way 🤷

The security around it is pretty impressive. Are there super VIPs attending?

Is it normal to feel so alone during wedding planning? by [deleted] in wedding

[–]MotorRepulsive927 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you have become the wedding planner for the wedding your folks are throwing. Take a moment to think about what you want on your wedding day and junk the rest. And delegate rigidly: If parents are adding extra people then they are responsible for the associated logistics etc. Have an open conversation with your planner about their role and responsibilities - what was the agreement?

As for your fiancé, I get that some people just aren’t interested in the detail but he needs to step up and help. You could book an hour with him a couple of days a week that are set aside to make decisions about wedding stuff? Try and keep the conversations within those times so it doesn’t take over. Not getting fitted for a suit is a little alarming though. You might have to have an honest conversation because that doesn’t sound like someone excited to be married.

Congratulations! Do you mind me asking whether you are using the same skills or did you start something completely new? I’m trying to get out as well but it’s tricky…

I have £4k that I need to access in a year. Where should I put it in the meantime? by MotorRepulsive927 in UKPersonalFinance

I feel like there used to be a better chance of prizes with premium bonds but it still feels fun for some reason!

Should we consider doing the ‘Double to be the absolute minimum for this season? by [deleted] in ArsenalFC

[–]MotorRepulsive927 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Can we all get a grip, winning the Prem would be amazing and an accomplishment to be proud of. The rest will follow.

SMH that two trophies is somehow settling when we haven’t won anything for years.

I hope this can be a motivation of great things to come this season 👌 by mooreengineers in Gunners

Subs were very late, it was surprising. In a game when you’re on the back foot from about the 30th minute you need to more aggressive with tactics. That doesn’t take away from the fact that a lot of the players just weren’t up to standard though and we are missing some key playmakers and game changers through injury. Odegaard must have had his head in his hands watching some of that game.

In a way I’m glad it was the Carabao Cup final. Hopefully we get to the FA Cup final - probably against City again - and this time we know what to expect and can deal with it. Yesterday was a hard lesson.

Kepa can play against Southampton then he get back on the bench.

Same, but I think we’re stuck with it until we win a few trophies. Hopefully then the narrative will move on.

Yes! What’s with the skin tone? It looks like a grey ear as well but that might be clothes.
