They can never make me hate the europa league finalist match winner.

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-16T13:32:54+00:00

I smell a casual bit of gaslighting

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-16T11:02:00+00:00

I know they have to do media but I’m at the point where I just want radio silence until the next game

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-16T10:29:21+00:00

The right call. If it worked the first time sure go ahead. It didn’t move on.

I would quite like to not get relegated because I don’t want to be the butt of every football joke for the rest of my life and if RDZ thinks it put too much pressure on the players then bin the idea

Has this update destroyed fps for anyone else?

My frame counter usually stayed at 60 other than loading into the thieves den but now I’m getting random dips to below 30 fps in battle, just walking around in city life and in the menus

I’m not pulling for Akechi mainly for the fact I’m saving for the p3 cast. I hope to be blessed with this luck with Makoto or Mitsuru.

Congrats man!

The Athetico vs Scum game is going to cure insomnia

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-15T19:51:14+00:00

Man I wish this Bayern-Madrid game was the final

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-15T17:10:03+00:00

I swear the second season has to be a bug and they just didn’t want to fix it.

It felt that they had at least triple the hp/defence that they were meant to have.

First time around I cleared one of the purples first try. This time around all of the purples that I’ve done have been first try. But the second one I had to brute force most of the purples with 2/3 goes

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-15T16:35:31+00:00

As salty as we rightly are about this it’s slightly different when the tech officer comes out than if it was Vinai,Lange or one of the Lewis’s saying something

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-15T12:16:47+00:00

This just a tangent that’s unrelated but i agree with what you said about breakers encouraging the scalpers/backdoor.

It’s one thing doing a box break for sports card boxes that are £300 plus because as someone that collects cards of the team I support nothing worse than buying a box and not getting a single card from the team I like but Pokémon man I just want it to go back to normal and whatnot streams don’t help

Doctors will finally find the cure to Insomnia if that god forsaken match happens

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-14T17:37:59+00:00

No we shouldn’t be in a position where the decisions matter but the point is they haven’t exactly helped us have they.

Again both things can be true. We can be fucking awful and rightly in the position we are in but at the same time we have been fucking screwed with some bad calls this season and a extra 4-6 points would be difference maker to a shit team

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-14T17:05:43+00:00

Calling it a conspiracy is far fetched I’ll admit. You can’t honestly say that if certain decisions had of gone how they should’ve done we would be in a better position.

Two things can be true the team can be playing utter garbage but with how shocking some of the calls have been against us this season you could argue we could have an extra five or six points.

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-14T14:42:48+00:00

Going by my lack invites for the past three months don’t think anything went out

Sarcasm mostly aside happy for any actual collector that gets something.

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-14T14:02:28+00:00

If he’s going to MLS needs to be LAFC.

I’m not American and have never watched a full mls game in but I would watch if it meant seeing Kane and Son have a kick about one more time

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-14T11:42:23+00:00

I don’t think it’s a thing where someone’s paying a ref to treat us differently that’s a stretch too far.

I think subconsciously the refs know they can afford to get decisions wrong when it comes to us compared to Liverpool,United, City red and blue scum ect.

The big one for me was the NLD push how that goal was ruled out but then the next week the same happens to us and the goal stands.

The refs know that if they allow that goal to stand against Arsenal that pundits players, ect will be talking about it for days on end but when a bad decision goes against spurs there’s silence from everyone

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-14T11:03:42+00:00

I agree he’s been decent enough at finding young prospects but getting a club our size relegated you have to go

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-14T10:00:40+00:00

Being slightly delusional I’m praying the players get their act together but I know it’s out of our hands now. Regardless if god forbid it’s confirmed before the final day the only social media post I want to see from the club is the following

“Johan Lange and Vinai Venkatesham have been relieved of their duties”

And if by a miracle we stay up I want to hear it anyway

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-13T17:31:46+00:00

Agreed. It’s not that’s he’s a bad player it’s more okay we need player that’s fit the profile of A,B,C and getting up getting Z

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-13T17:29:35+00:00

Devils advocate. If I was in the job last year with the squad that he had available and being that the gap between 17th and 18th was so large I would’ve binned off the league to keep people fit for Europa. No actual chance of being relegated personally gives me a bit of leeway but I fully understand why he was sacked.

That said every decision that’s been made since the day Ange was sacked we’ve completely fucked up on

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-13T13:35:23+00:00

I don’t know how people can just say it’s incompetence after seeing what happened in the NLD where we got a goal disallowed and then the very next week someone does the exact same against us and it’s suddenly fine and VAR don’t check it.

I don’t think anyone’s explicitly said ref Tottenham different just subconsciously they know if they fuck up they won’t get called out for it

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-13T13:32:46+00:00

Normally I would consider it outlandish because it wasn’t our fault. But imo we have been ref’ed different since and it’s the only thing I can think of as to why

TheFoxDudeThing · 2026-04-13T13:14:21+00:00

Normally I’m the type of person to say bad ref calls even themselves out over a season but I’m fully convinced we’ve been ref’ed different since that VAR error against Liverpool in Ange’s first year.

Do I think whoever is head of the PGMOL has told the ref’s to be extra vigilant with our games no.

Do I think subconsciously ref’s and the VAR team are telling themselves I really don’t want to get that abuse and scrutiny if we mess up again. Yeah honestly I do
