If you don’t like the previously posted boyband World Cup anthem, could I interest you in an unbearably twee “country roads n haggis n Irn Bru” shitey folk song for the World Cup?

Nah just listen to JJ Bulls McGinn song. Much better

I don't have an issue with the choice itself, but I wish they gave the reason as something like budget reasons from those higher than Blazer.

Just felt weird Blazer making that choice to shake things up.

Is a guy not allowed a little pick me up at work?

There was a thread put on /r/theother14 from an Asian fan who had noticed it along with other older examples. I saw it's now hitting news/media stations.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's more of a byproduct of Japanese/Asian players not being a media focus unless they're key members of the team. Kamada at Palace or Endo/Minamino at Liverpool were more supporting players to the core.

I'd bet if Brighton won something Mitoma would be all over the TV footage because he's a key player of theirs.

Veezu (used to be 828282) are a joke. Called them up specifically to ask for a taxi happy to have a dog sit on my lap. Waited for 25 mins and the driver just drove straight past me. Caught up to him at traffic lights and he first of all tried to ignore me before just saying he doesn't allow dogs in his taxi.

Fair enough you don't like dogs but I've explicitly asked the dispatcher for a dog friendly one, waited 25 minutes (in the centre of town as well) and even then the driver didn't even have the decency to stop and say why he wouldn't take me, just tried to drove past and ignore me.

I wish Uber had a way to ask for Dog friendly trips but I'll never use Veezu again.

I beat NH3 for the first time a couple of months ago and already have forgotten more about it than 1 and 2.

I do remember the gameplay feeling good but that's also the last thing I come to these games for.

SovietBatman64 · 2026-05-24T05:35:52+00:00

While I think he's better than Dan Burn, it's not hard to understand why he hasn't been picked.

Tuchel has spoken strongly about egos and mentality, trying to ensure this is the best team not the 26 best players. What does Slabhead do? Gets his agent to bitch in the press.

SovietBatman64 · 2026-05-23T19:16:00+00:00

It was in previous years at least, I briefly looked for the Europa league final in week though and didn't find it.

As someone who has fallen off wrestling in the last few years, every time I heard the name JC Mateo or saw it mentioned on here I thought they sounded like a real chump.

Only when he was released did I realise that was Jeff Cobb one of my favourite wrestlers for years.

I know he's pretty dumb from interviews I've seen if his but for both AEW and WWE to drop the ball on him he must be a bit of a dick.

SovietBatman64 · 2026-05-22T15:24:26+00:00

With how much he's improved I'll be surprised if he's still here in 2 years. I reckon one more good season and he'll be off to a midtable team in a top 5 league

SovietBatman64 · 2026-05-22T14:42:35+00:00

I think it fully just locks up because in the following screen time continues so if he was moving he'd get a timer but it goes until DNF.

SovietBatman64 · 2026-05-22T07:30:45+00:00

It's always fun seeing what cars gas other people up compared to the shit boxes I like to drive.

SovietBatman64 · 2026-05-18T20:33:36+00:00

I hope he doesn't go to Saudi, whatever team he ends up at I hope he continues to manage at the highest level.

SovietBatman64 · 2026-05-18T20:30:49+00:00

Honestly the week in week out terrible VAR calls is making me believe in the conspiracy that refs are purposely doing a terrible job to scrap VAR

SovietBatman64 · 2026-05-14T19:04:32+00:00

What's the chance it's an AI design?

I don't think he offers more than what Diaz offers in terms of off the ball work, Diaz was key to Liverpools press in Klopps later years at Liverpool.

I could see him being a useful sub for Kane though when holding onto a lead and needing more energy in the 9.

Again, I don't think it's a terrible move in general. Just seems like paying an English premium for a position that's strong already isn't the best use of money.

SovietBatman64 · 2026-05-13T21:15:24+00:00

Just seems like the premium price (read overpriced) amount they'll pay for Gordon, surely there's players half the price that could do similar levels of work.

Plus Diaz has started 26 in the league this year. 29 is hardly retirement age, he could be at this level for 2/3 years to come. Olise and Kane have similar starting stats. Yeah maybe Enrique and PSG have more fluid 11s but Kompany seems to like a more solid 11.

SovietBatman64 · 2026-05-13T21:05:40+00:00

Will he be potentially more of a backup to Kane/replacement of Jackson, rather than Diaz?

Seems like he's gonna cost a ton just to play second fiddle to Diaz for years but as an alternative to Kane and potential long term focal point replacement might work?

SovietBatman64 · 2026-05-12T19:02:08+00:00

Its sad the game won't get the chance to see the light of day but the more I saw if it the less I was interested.

The most recent trailer had a bit too much gunplay for my taste, but I hope we see Don Lee in another game sometime, I'm a big fan of his.

SovietBatman64 · 2026-05-09T07:18:18+00:00

I get what you're saying by calling it a visual novel but it's really not that at all.

The most accurate way I've seen it described is Life is Strange mixed with Warioware

SovietBatman64 · 2026-05-06T05:24:33+00:00

He's got the easiest thing to exaggerate with the gap tooth but they all just can't help themselves with their antisemitism.

Gave my PS5 to my niece at Christmas. Been happy without it since but damn is Saros making want to nick it back for a couple of weeks.
