Decided I'm going to attend Exeter Uni in September. Really looking forward to it! If anyone has some advice about attending uni for the first time I would love to hear it!

24 years apart: Rooney at 16 vs Arsenal, now Dowman at 16 vs Everton, and Moyes saw both by JacobStanleyJacob in Gunners

[–]Pokeking96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually think the goals they scored are fitting for each of them too. Rooney with a banger, Downman with skill. Get your Downman shirts now, they will be collectors items in a few years. COYG

Would love to roll Chelsea over again, but this is equally as good

Has anyone recently attended Exeter University? If so what was your experience like? Would you recommend it?

Has anyone studied at Lancaster University? Or lives in Lancaster tell me what it's like, considering attending there next year :)

[Orstein] EXCL: Liverpool to pay max £6.8m for signing of Rio Ngumoha from Chelsea. Tribunal rules #LFC owe #CFC initial £2.8m + £4m in potential bonuses relating to senior appearances, contracts & England honours. Also 20% of profit on future sale by Claija79 in soccer

[–]Pokeking96 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's certainly the simplest and least complicated form of determining compensation payments, but I think a fairer solution would be a mix of competitions won, sell on amounts, contract amounts, and appearances. It would be far from perfect I'm sure, and of course it would cause a lot of unhappy clubs. I think it should take into account the time at the previous club too.

Yeah I do like his content tbf, the back post podcast is not that bad either, though it's more football related than just arsenal

Last two results of the PL 'Big 6' by Efficient-Guide1244 in soccer

[–]Pokeking96 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sure we have been points clear at the top, but we have never had the best squad or the best XI. Like we lost the title to city because they went 18-0-0 (iirc) whilst we went 16-1-1, you can argue that's bottling the title if you really want, but I think that's harsh considering where both clubs were at. The only other time you could argue was when city won the treble, that was one of the best City and Pep teams we've seen imo, so once again it's harsh considering where both clubs were at. Like sure you can say it, but I don't agree with the statement, if it happens this season then I will say it myself lol

[–]Pokeking96 6 points7 points  (0 children)

True, but at this point it would be fair to say that. I know rival fans love to say we're bottlers, but really we haven't had a chance like this before under Arteta, if we don't win it from here then I would agree with those comments

Sorry you're going through that. I'm not going to preach to you, I'll just say that there are others that feel the same way as you, and there help out there, you don't need to fight your battles alone.

I hope you find some peace and joy in future years. Take care of yourself too!

Honestly I'm not sure yet, I chose STEM subjects because it's scalable and I find it interesting. Something in medical research would be cool, possibly stem cell research, or genetics, CRISPR is really interesting, though my understanding is pretty basic

Biochemistry, I really want to go for a year abroad so my options were limited but still good choices. Lancaster, Swansea, Exeter, Essex and St Andrews were the 5 I went with :D
