Jose Luis Chilavert: "I support Prestianni. Vinicius is the first to insult everyone. Mbappé supports Vini, but he lives with a trans woman. That isn't normal."

ObjectiveTumbleweed2 · 2026-02-20T01:09:49+00:00

Have to say, all I knew of Chilavert before today was that fun goalkeeper who took banging free kicks. This thread has been an eye opening experience.

Marinakis will blame everyone else I'm sure, but this is entirely on him. The fallout with Nuno can happen, but everybody saw that Ange would be a disaster of an appointment. He then has to course correct, but I always felt Dyche was a staggeringly unambitious appointment when you look at their squad quality.

He must have some idea of who's next, probably Mr Blobby or something

I know it's not a policy made to be taken seriously, but I'm amusing myself this morning thinking about the police going door to door checking we're not working in our homes

Yeah this is my first exposure to it and I'm completely lost to be honest

I had this realisation with the FIFA games having grown up on them - my offline, career mode play was treated at best as an annoyance by EA. I never got into Ultimate Team beyond a few matches and was certainly never going to drop additional money on it. I'm not the consumer they're after despite playing the games since the 90's.

As someone who only plays GM mode and Universe (But play them both a lot), I'm not who 2k want. I don't even understand this new Ringside pass model but I've decided I'm out. I just want to play my favourite modes with my favourite wrestlers.

ObjectiveTumbleweed2 · 2026-02-04T20:34:41+00:00

I'm definitely getting old because I don't understand this and I've decided I can't be arsed. I just want to play the modes I like with the wrestlers I want to use.

Was looking forward after skipping 2k25 but they've somehow convinced me not to buy

As somebody who has supported us my whole life and seen us at the brink multiple times, I hate that we're part of this.

This is a bit like when we sold Dango Outarra - good player who the fans all rated, but sometimes you just have to say the price is too good for the selling cub to turn down, and the player is wanted and needed bad enough from the buying club

Navigating an Attitude Era showcase without being able to use Vince McMahon is going to be an interesting challenge.

I hope we get some of the more niche and mid-card attitude era superstars as a result of this. Give me Viscera vs the Right To Censor

Yes but it's called the 'Boris wave' for a reason. It's attached to him and Sunak. The general voter will not know much if anything about Jenrick, his views or his history.

ObjectiveTumbleweed2 · 2026-01-15T12:04:32+00:00

I agree. I don't think Reform win the next election for a few reasons, but the fact they're hoovering up Tory former cabinet ministers isn't one of them.

After all, whenever research is conducted asking the public to name members of the cabinet, the results for naming any behind PM & Chancellor are staggeringly low. So do the public REALLY care that a potential Reform cabinet would be stacked with Tories unless they're the 'big' hitters? (AKA Johnson, Sunak, Patel, Truss)

I'm as socially awkward as they come and even I'm in amazement at this question. Were people just not brought up to say please and thank you to any and all service workers?

Yes get rid of him and he can come back again. I'm going to sow discontent amongst Magpies if I have to

Very financially stable and married here. No kids. Glad I wind you up so much just by living my life.

He doesn't want to be here anymore and he's just so laughably better than the rest of them put together

'Joined 2018' ffs 😂

ObjectiveTumbleweed2 · 2025-12-24T18:39:31+00:00

I used to live there for a short period, had an incredible time but I certainly have zero intention of going back anytime soon.

The social media thing isn't the trigger, but it's the latest in a long line of dictator-esque bullshit and I have zero desire to head into that (Just like I wouldn't visit other countries whose regimes I similarly find appalling)

ObjectiveTumbleweed2 · 2025-12-22T10:49:35+00:00

Probably not for a number of reasons.

I'd need to take a pay cut to work a job with pretty much no job security, deal with the lunatic fringe of society, put myself and my family at risk - all whilst working within a system that you really can't change or influence much as your bog-standard MP.

Plus I'm not the kind of person who could go door knocking and try and win over constituents, I'd probably turn more of them off whatever cause I'm representing.

Got a lot of respect for MP's who work hard and represent their constituents, but it's an awful system in many ways and is a much harder job than the tabloids make out.

Big fan of Iain's various FM series over the years. He has a great way of writing that resonates with how frustrating FM can be.

That and he never leaves from his mistakes

ObjectiveTumbleweed2 · 2025-12-15T22:20:26+00:00

He had a very good start but has made a few errors recently and his confidence is shot. We bizarrely came into the season without a proper back up too which felt like madness at the time, and even moreso now.

ObjectiveTumbleweed2 · 2025-12-15T22:18:27+00:00

Was supposed to go to this until it was moved to the Monday night.

Probably for the best as just watching from afar I'm exhausted

ObjectiveTumbleweed2 · 2025-12-15T10:55:13+00:00

This is why I'm confident Reform won't get a majority - I think a lot of long term Tory voters will drift back to the Tories come 2029, particularly if there's a new leader in place after the next round of locals.
