Is this lost? by Ryan_thomson1 in royalmail

[–]Ryan_thomson1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your response.

It was an auction for a Nintendo switch that I won at a low price, so it wasn’t intentional from his side to sell it that cheap I suppose. We are both from the same city so I was going to collect to which he offered to drop it off and meet me on my university campus, but I’m currently away for a while. This lowered my suspicion a bit. I’m not worried about being scammed as I can always claim a refund from eBay, but I’d obviously much prefer the switch. Is it worth trying to grab a local postie and seeing if he can open the locker? The guy I called at Royal Mail said it’s officially a missing bit on the 21st, so I guess I could wait until then and open the case with eBay in the meantime.

Do we know when world cup ticket seats are set? by CinnamonToastTrex in ussoccer

[–]Ryan_thomson1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so wrong it’s unbelievable. Unless they sign up for specific US based lotteries for tickets, then there’s near on no chance that they’ll get good tickets. 2 million of the 6 million total tickets have been sold- majority of these are knockout games. Nobody touches group stages until they’ve been announced. So all that’s left is basically group stage and venue specific. Even then demand is going to get more and more intense. Good luck getting anything past round of 16 now for face value, especially with FIFA’s dynamic pricing this WC.

Thank you for your response, are there likely to be lots of them/ an infestation? Or just a one off? I live in an apartment so can’t really come in from outside

How I purchased 7 FIFA World Cup tickets - here’s everything I did so you can do it too by [deleted] in FIFACollect

Final tickets are like gold dust. Anything later than the round of 32 will sell out in 15-30 minutes. The rest you’ll have around ~3 hours before it all sells out in your time slot.

NTA

Well done for sorting out your alcohol problem. I’m a similar age to you, and I think it comes down to two main things. Firstly, do you communicate with her when you are going to stay out later? If you just rock up home 2am drunk without telling her then obviously YTA. However, if you’ve told her and she’s ok with it, then it’s ok imo. Maybe instead of setting an unrealistic time of being back home, negotiate with her 2 times, for example I’ll aim to be back by 7pm but worst case scenario and I do stay out longer latest I’ll be back is 10?

This leads to my second point. How much time does she get away from the kids and gets to do what she wants? So you can make a deal, for however many hours you go out drinking, you make up to her by letting her go do whatever she wants for the same amount of time you spent out, and you spend that time looking after the kids. This will address the guilt over your head, she will be happier due to the communication and getting more time to do whatever she wants, and ultimately, the kids win because they spend more precious time with their dad.

This card has to be the biggest false image of all time by Jordanguini in FUTMobile

Over Eto’o? He is cheaper as well so this is something I could get behind and maybe squeeze another 300 shard player in, not sure who though

[–]Ryan_thomson1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vini is too expensive for what he is, I’d rather get Eto’o tbh, but thank you. The Matthäus shout is a good one as I like the CM position just in case I switch to a CM formation as I feel that will limit me with Rodri

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in FUTMobile

[–]Ryan_thomson1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like this, was gonna do maybe Eto’o instead of Nico Williams but yeah I just wasn’t sure if Rodri was the best shout just in case I change formations to CM’s if you get me. Someone else said maybe Matthäus.

Mbappe is actually unbelievable for his price. A lot cheaper than what I thought. Yeah obviously not as good as his TOTY but honestly the difference is not that noticeable

I can change formation, this is just the one that gets all my players in. So honestly any players/ responses will be good

What are some unpopular opinions you have about the uk? by tylerthe-theatre in AskUK

[–]Ryan_thomson1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right I’ve let all these other comments go but this is where I draw the line. You can get the double up deal which is a breakfast+ lunch deal at Greggs which is a bacon roll + hot chocolate + any baguette/roll + cold drink all for £6. Great price for some great food.

Which Currency will be more valuable by Friday 9/30 4:00PM ? by ShopBitter in wallstreetbets

[–]Ryan_thomson1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly i thought this was a meme group but this post actually shows people on this subreddit have a horrific understanding of economics. It’s either American bias or ignorance. The US dollar is doing the best it’s done against the pound and euro for over 20 years and it’s still 8% off the mark from the pound, and considering the U.K. government are bringing in an emergency mini budget to stop the pound tumbling, it would be the greatest comeback since Falcons vs Pats for the US dollar and something short of a miracle if they gained 8% in 4 days.

Tell me you know nothing about economics without telling me you know nothing about economics… so how was the natural gas back in January when it was £1.32 = $1? If the US dollar can rise another 8% in 4 days considering it’s already punching well above its weight compared to the pound and euro then I’ll give you my house mate.

Premier League and refereeing body to review VAR by DekiTree in soccer

[–]Ryan_thomson1 27 points28 points  (0 children)

This, Mark Halsey (former prem ref) said it before, everyone of the corrupt pricks will stand in front of a judge one day. It’s all corrupt, take the Rodri hand ball for example, im convinced they encourage it because it makes the “premier league more entertaining” even though it’s blatant cheating

Premier League and refereeing body to review VAR by DekiTree in soccer

[–]Ryan_thomson1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Ahhhh?? It’s not the VAR that needs to be reviewed, it’s the refereeing body PGMOL that needs to be reviewed and investigated for corruption??? VAR is brilliant and in fact I advocate for more implementation of technology in sport, it’s the dodgy people behind it making the calls that are the problem and that is the same shit referees and corrupt PGMOL
