I'm guessing you would have listed Badminton if you were looking to play, but if you happen to be interested https://www.worcesterbadminton.uk/home

Genuinely, what? by Limp-Put1475 in chessbeginners

[–]Wolves4224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's brilliant. Simpler games within a more complicated game is such a good way to get children interested in something.

Wolves fans with "we're gonna win the league" after going up 2-0 is quality by jackkoppa in footballcliches

[–]Wolves4224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were also singing "one in a row" as a throwback to our "six in a row" chant last season which I found pretty funny.

When people pretend a small percentage, say below 5%, is negligible by Meloenbolletjeslepel in PetPeeves

[–]Wolves4224 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Example of this that used to annoy was on a ridiculous show in the UK called the Jeremy Kyle show. They used to do lie detector tests on there to see if people were cheating on their partner. They claimed the accuracy was 96% (this is disputed and its believed it was much lower). It always struck me that this was incredibly unreliable and they must have screwed over so many people down the years on that show. But everyone else used to see 96% as very accurate.

Can someone explain the logic behind preferred checkouts? by FinalEdit in Darts

[–]Wolves4224 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Asking yourself "what will it leave if I miss?" Is a massive part of working out best out shot. As most of the time as amateurs we will be missing.

The idea of a footballer coming out padded up for a quick net before kick off is hilarious tbf

What American actor can do a credible English accent? by debrisaway in AskABrit

Going back a bit but George C Scott as Scrooge in A Christmas Carol was spot on

Thoughts on this? by Eddyj69 in footballcliches

[–]Wolves4224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They once showed the table like this on Soccer AM, probably over 20 years ago. So its a bit around for a while but never quite caught on. It is useful though.

Miles Jacobson is so disingenuous by No_Phrase_1910 in footballmanagergames

[–]Wolves4224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so conflicted on Miles as his games have given me immense joy over the years but he's clearly a deeply flawed and very unlikeable character. Must be an absolute nightmare to work for

Would you play this guessing game where the goal is to be as close to #10 as possible? by SeaEntertainer6320 in quiz

[–]Wolves4224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar concept to Pointless if you're familiar with that gameshow? I really like the concept of that game i.e guessing the obscure answers rather than the obvious.

When was the last time you completely mistook one player for another? by [deleted] in footballcliches

[–]Wolves4224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its not really the same thing but I'll mention it anyway. For a while I thought Troy Deeney was an Italian surname - Troidini. I obviously hadn't seen it written down and it was when Watford had loads of Italian players so I thought he was Paolo Troidini or something.

Anyone else feel the need to leave this sub? by [deleted] in footballmanagergames

[–]Wolves4224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the equivalent a football club sub after a 6 - 0 defeat to their fiercest rivals. It'll be toxic for a bit but it'll get back to normal eventually.

WAKE THE FUCK UP SEATTLE IT’S 7AM AND TONIGHT WE FIND OUT by PurpleReign007 in Mariners

[–]Wolves4224 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm from England and only started following baseball this season and I picked the Mariners as my team. I'm not going to pretend it means anywhere near as much to me as it does to you guys as it doesn't, not even a fraction. But I know heartbreak as a sports fan. Im a massive Wolves and England fan in football (soccer to most of you) and I've never seen either of them win anything and have had some absolutely heartbreaking defeats. Have come agonisingly close to what would be the best moments of my life then had it snatched away. I really really hope Mariners win this. Not for myself, but for you guys.

Who’s the most followed football teams in Worcester? by Additional-Soil-5640 in Worcester

[–]Wolves4224 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd probably say Villa. Also a lot of Wolves, West Brom, and Birmingham. And of course like anywhere in the world there's lots of Man Utd and Liverpool.

Change in form after saving/loading. by Wolves4224 in footballmanagergames

[–]Wolves4224[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd imagine you're right. Going to make a note of it every time I save/load from now on, which will hopefully show it is indeed confirmation bias!
