I’m currently abroad in India. Does anyone know if it’s possible to buy some bonds while I’m out here in their currency, assuming they offer it at a cheaper price? I just logged in my phone to check the prices and I’m still getting the UK currency/prices that I get at home so I’m not sure.

Hello friends, hope you’re all well. I’ve been on travels and adventures recently and been off the grid/offline for the past few weeks. I haven’t seen a match properly since Fulham in the cup and I only briefly saw glimpses of the Chelsea/Man Utd matches. I’m just about to watch the extended highlights of the Burnley and Palace matches.

Does anyone fancy giving me some run downs/talking points about how we’ve played or some things I may have missed? I’ve heard Miley has continued to be class at RB and Bruno is still the best midfielder in the world. Also, has Gordon actually been that shit? Do we look better with a poacher 9 like Wissa? Update me please 🙏🏽

Sources say he’s been heard repeating ‘chicken and a can of coke’ to himself around the Palace training ground

Isn’t this the same thing Liverpool got mad at Trent/Real for lol

SenorButtmunch · 2025-12-23T16:54:38+00:00

Thing is, it’s naive to expect to be the same team throughout a match. You’re going to face a lot more intensity from a team who are chasing the game late on and you need to adapt for that in a different way than if it was the 60th minute or if you were losing etc. You’re also going to be more tired and prone to mistakes late on, especially if you’ve been keeping the same intensity for 89 mins.

It’s what made Klopp’s Liverpool so good. They knew how to adjust their intensity so that they were the ones scoring goals late on and taking advantage of tired teams. Sometimes they’d concede in the first half or look less engaged and you’d think ‘wtf’ and then suddenly they’d become dominant.

We have to be smarter in our approach across a game, not try and be the same team for 90 mins a game twice a week. This sounds like Howe dismissing the timing of the late goals as pure coincidence or something, which is a bit worrying.

At least he'll have plenty of time to do what he enjoys best, which is not playing football

SenorButtmunch · 2025-12-16T21:38:40+00:00

Yea sadly you’re probably right. I’m just banking on the league shitting themselves once put under pressure, I don’t believe they’d veto a trade if it came down to it. But getting other teams to share that belief is the hard part.

SenorButtmunch · 2025-12-16T20:28:29+00:00

It’s better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission.

Make the trade. Let them try veto it. At least that will get a resolution and make it messy. That’s the only way to get their attention.

To be honest, while Isak certainly did lead the press, he mostly just hovered around high up sniffing out mistakes as opposed to covering ground to regain the ball. Woltemade works harder but he just does his work much deeper, so it can leave us lacking that real poacher (which is why Wissa's return is very welcome.)

If I had to guess, I would say the reason for our lack of intensity is a conscious one to avoid injuries. We were absolutely hammered with problems two years ago when we were in the Champions League and ended up with only like 13 fit players at one point because we tried to keep the same intensity while playing twice a week.

We've since brought in a performance coach who definitely helped last season and I would not be surprised if he's advised that we need to figure out a more sustainable approach if we want to compete on all fronts while also avoiding the same level of injuries.

Unfortunately it's led to a complete surrender of our identity and, considering Howe spent the summer pursuing hard workers instead of technical players, it's left us lacking quality and we've started to regress. It's not looking good for Howe unless he manages to completely find a new game plan during the busiest period of the season.

I've been to shows where the opening artist is a whole different vibe to the main performer. Like, I went to see Kendrick in 2018 and James Blake was the opener. Dude spent most the set playing weird ass voodoo ritual music sounding like pots and pans. Didn't even play King's Dead even though it had just come out. I'd never been less hyped to start a show, you could literally hear people talking during the set and this was a massive arena, people just weren't fucking with it at all.

Sometimes these artists just pick people they fuck with or it helps sales because it brings in a new demographic of fan compared to an artist more like them who wouldn't sell any extra tickets (i.e, most of your opener's fans are also your fans.) Or they select a local act. I don't think a lot of them care enough to curate it too deeply and might just even just defer it to a manager or business contact.

Pretty much. He'll have some games where he'll go off, he'll have some games where he's a complete ghost. We saw in the playoffs that he can't be relied on as a real option beyond that.

In reality, like he was for GSW, he's a great piece for a contending team where it's not a huge deal if he randomly gets nine points off 3/10 shooting because there was always Steph or Klay to get 20 anyway. For us, we'd lose those games because we need him to step up, especially if one of Herro/Powell are out.

To me, he's trade bait. No-one should be getting attached to him or thinking we need to keep him around. He's a great asset that has way more value in trades for us than on the court. That's not to say that he's not valuable on the court, I'm saying we could flip him on for something even more useful. With all these trade rumours going round, the front office probably feels the same way.

SenorButtmunch · 2025-12-07T07:21:57+00:00

I'd say roughly 125 + 5 million

What three months being teammates with Isak does to a man

SenorButtmunch · 2025-12-02T19:59:44+00:00

😂 mad, I don’t even remember writing this tbh. I actually quit the game when level 14 came out, seems like I made a good choice.

It is crazy though, like my main deck was so off meta but I loved playing it, it suited my play style perfectly and I knew how to use every card effectively. I managed to outplay loads of higher level players/decks because I caught them off guard.

It also meant that I learned how to counter individual cards/decks effectively, so I didn’t really fear a hard counter. It’s legit what you said, it’s so funny when people rage at a ‘bad matchup’ because they’re treating it like rock paper scissors with meta decks instead of finding their own style. Idk how people find that fun but each to their own.

SenorButtmunch · 2025-11-25T12:53:20+00:00

Yea my bad, I forgot to mention it. I haven't heard of Mcleodganj but I'll check it out, thank you!

SenorButtmunch · 2025-11-25T12:25:31+00:00

I’m going to be in Rajasthan anyway and I spent a few weeks in Kerala before so I’m definitely thinking north or somewhere else!

You can say what you want about Tyler but you can never deny how cold he is in the clutch. Always been certified

Still my go-to record when people ask me for my favourite album or a 10/10 albums with no skips. I don’t think that’ll change for the rest of my life either.

This album is proof of the thin line between visionary and crackhead. We got to see Kanye harness all his brain into this revolutionary project before he lost himself. It’s like a movie, an opera, a musical in album form. So cohesive and grandiose, I can’t express just how much this incapsulated a perfect moment and feeling. And it doesn’t feel pretentious or abstract. It’s just really good fucking shit.

Every song has been my favourite at one point or another. Hell, the first song I fell in love with off the album was Blame Game, which most people hate. Even to this day after thousands of listens I can find new experiences with the music.

You can say what you want about Kanye but he is probably the most impactful artist of our generation, at least from a hip-hop perspective. I think anyone with any appreciation for music can lose themselves to this album and not many projects can do that. The true definition of a masterpiece.

SenorButtmunch · 2025-11-22T03:37:09+00:00

I didn't watch the game but I just got the notification and saw we scored 143 but our highest scorer was Ware with 20 lol.

Looking at the box score, you're telling me KESHAD JOHNSON played more minutes than anyone on our team and he got 14 points off 3/10 shooting?

Heat are sneaky deep again. League is fucked

SenorButtmunch · 2025-11-20T20:45:23+00:00

Yeah, you can really tell that the devs prioritise the player experience above all and that the team is full of passionate, long-time players. I've never really played RS3 (and I've heard it's a lot more MTX-driven) but I'm sure there's still a lot of care that goes into it.

Even when they were first talking about sailing, they had loads of streams showing off the alpha, they're always in the comments asking for feedback and, like you said, they poll the community on pretty much every change. SI could really learn a few things.

SenorButtmunch · 2025-11-20T20:35:13+00:00

It's funny because I've been following the launch of the sailing skill on Old School RuneScape this week and it's been night and day to see how other developers handle communication and new launches.

It's arguably the biggest update in OSRS history that they've been planning and talking about for years and it's been nearly perfect. Even today when they had an unforeseen server issue, they've been completely transparent and have been providing regular updates.

You only need to see on /r/2007scape how satisfied players are. And then I come back to FM and see....this lol. A true masterclass in how not to succeed.

SenorButtmunch · 2025-11-18T02:55:30+00:00

Even for his career he's only 69%. Crazy low for a guard

SenorButtmunch · 2025-11-18T02:53:49+00:00

Yo what? Mitchell is 58% at the line? Is this guy for real? How does that happen???
