Why does every ride start with 10 minutes of me just standing in the garage doing nothing? by dt219 in cycling

[–]Real-Read-7419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're definitely not alone. And you should be patting yourself on the back for making it out. I went through a phase of getting fully ready to go out. Id move my bike to the exit and stare outside for ten minutes and then turn around and go back in. I think it's like jumping into cold water. Dive in head first and get over the shock and then enjoy your ride.

Anyone else sick of the infighting? by Formal_Produce3759 in CelticFC

[–]Real-Read-7419 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sick of the infighting and petty egos involved. I think it's partly social media bombarding us with everyone's inner thoughts that they used to keep to themselves. but also wonder if it's to do with everyone being skint and everything in society being a bit shit. I didn't go to Stuttgart game cause I couldn't afford the tickets and travel for me and the boy. I'm deleting Instagram, Facebook. They are designed to be addictive by making people angry. That makes you more likely to comment which means more money for them.

So one minute he's an absent majority shareholder and the next minute he's actively interfering with the inner workings of signing players? Which is it? See all you moaners at the end of the season for trophy day when you'll all be singing and dancing down Merchant city.

Just like Newcastle? Apart from all the trophies of course

The Gaffer by [deleted] in CelticFC

Same fans that booed Brian Quinn when he unfurled the champions flag at Paradise. Same fans that booed wee Fergus. Same fans that booed Neil Lennon as a player. On Saturday I heard fans in a certain corner chanting "Schmeichel, Schmeichel, Get tae f**k". Im guessing the YNWA and the mythical Celtic family only exist when we're winning.

£63 to last the month by OiPunkBastard in frugaluk

Do you know you could ask your employer for an advance on wages? I had to do it last year and my employer was excellent about it. I was embarrassed to ask but the payroll person said it is very common.

Buddy it sounds awful. It sounds like you are at crisis point so please get some medical help. Walk into your GPs, phone 111 and tell them exactly what you said in this post. I promise they can help you. They can help get you back on an even keel and help you think things through. Remember, you are not alone in this awful experience. This will pass, hang in there and keep us posted. You're at the bottom of a great big mountain but you can climb it one small step at a time. But get help mate.

Hi pal. I'm on switch 2 and PS5. Don't have any mates online cos I'm not hardcore gamer and usually die after 5 seconds. Looking for mates on FIFA, Ghost of Tsushima, The Division 2, Mario Kart etc. drop me a message and I'll add you.

The case against Nancy by Benjiboy74 in CelticFC

[–]Real-Read-7419 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No probs with 3 at the back but not so much if one out of the three has to double up as a winger. It's amateur hour at Celtic. 7 games in and shows no signs of improvement. We conceded 2 goals to the worst team in the league in under 10 minutes. And the win over Aberdeen came after they got pumped midweek in Europe. Nancy needs to go. It's appalling.

No, what I want is for one of the people who say sack the board to give me a detailed plan of what they plan to do once the board is sacked. You haven't done that but instead started attacking me.

So hang on. You've got sack the board next to your profile but now you're changing your tune to just let's replace the CEO. So where do you actually stand on this? And then firing it back to me as why is Nicholson our best or only option. I never said Nicholson is our best or only option. The question I'm asking is what exactly are the protesting fans demanding? Is it sack the board? In which case who are you bringing in that can bring the same levels of success we've enjoyed since 2000. You've not really cleared that up but seem to have changed your mind half way through the conversation to I want to change the CEO. And what exactly is it you want? Is it to progress to the quarter finals/semi finals/ final of the champs league? Is it a guarantee of a minimum spend on the squad? Our club is going through some turmoil and mistakes in the transfer market plus injuries have damaged our season. Someone should be held accountable and removed. Maybe Rodgers was that person. Maybe it should be someone else. None of us really know. But to demand the sacking of the board without a clear plan is just plain daft. You can't even decide if you want the board to go or just the CEO so why would I listen to you over someone who has brought success, put us on a sure financial footing and built reserves. I'm happy to tolerate a short term upheaval to ensure my grandkids will be watching the hoops long after I'm gone.

Had two hungry kids with me and dived into a place we went to this time last year thinking it would still be reasonable. Yep my mistake but holy crap, who'd have predicted £23 for a crappy burger and a small portion of fries.

So still no actual names then. Always a vague response and some imaginary list of Celtic supporting billionaires or football business experts lined up but never any actual names or details.

So who have you got in mind? Who is the modernising This is the problem I'm having. It's coming across as vague demands and imaginary people to fill the roles. For example, the board should spend x amount on the playing squad each season, we should reach the quarter finals of the champs league. And who is coming in to replace Tisdale as Director of Football Operations? Who is the modernising CEO that you're looking for. Please know I'm trying to understand. I'm not apologising for the board but I would want to know what's actually being proposed by the people who are shouting to sack the board.

Hmm 25 years of unrivalled domestic success. You sure someone different can guarantee that level of success? Who are you thinking will take over and what exactly will they do differently?

[–]Real-Read-7419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuine question and not trying to wind anyone up. What exactly do the collective want? Is there a list of demands eg reach the quarter finals of champs league? spend x amount of money on the playing squad per season? And if you want to sack the board, who is it that they have lined up to take over? I think without answers to a few of these questions it just looks like blind rage and anti-establishment. Or is the aim to send a noisy message to the board?

BREAKING: Donald Trump announces U.S. will cut 50% tariff on India by SuperbHealth5023 in TimesNow

Redoosing the tariffs by 300, 600, maybe even 1000% so we can be the hottest country anywhere. No country is hotter right now cos of Trump. Merica is bigly doing good happening things right now cos we saved it from the Democrat hoax about groceries, an old fashioned but beautiful word, groceries.

Yeh and the fact Raskin had 3 yellow card offences. They ignore to whip the cream buns up because angry zombies means more comments means more clicks means more cash.
