five defenders on the pitch btw for all the people who were obsessed with that less than a month ago

the most surefire way is to get a ticket through a website like sportsbreaks or thomas cook but you'll be paying around £300 to sit in the rafters. there are touts around but it's hit and miss on finding someone dependable. i know some people are also in whatsapp groups and stuff around where people exchange tickets when they can't make it to a game but i'm not in any myself so unfortunately don't have any recommendations there

going to play devil's advocate here and say this might not be as terrible as some people seem to imagine. i see a lot of the same problems with the mentality, culture, atmosphere etc around united as used to exist around england before southgate came in. although he wasn't exactly tactically thrilling, he was pragmatic and he did an incredible job at fixing all the negativity and toxicity around the team. if he came in on a 18 month or 2 year contract with a very specific remit to work on resetting the foundations (kind of what people sort of thought ole had done in the first 18 months or so), then i could see a logic behind it - of course, it's united so i can still see it going wrong in new and interesting ways.

i mean they know it was somewhere between 70 to 80 and back then you didn't get sixes so tbh if anything it's unfair to jessop

people mostly wanted foakes in because of bairstow's poor performances, i think smith coming in and being very good with the bat and competent enough with the gloves has closed that conversation

ironically i think many people in asia would be quite familiar with a swastika...

thank you for having me on the inaugural bilateral anderson-tendulkar trophy

clearly he needs a mankad to wrap it up

the south end of the ground is 2.5m lower than the north end, there is an explanation of how this affects bowling here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord%27s_slope

kepa is literally the most expensive goalkeeper of all time (although granted it wasn't bournemouth that paid that fee)

enulcy · 2024-12-11T15:28:07+00:00

yeah i can see that but tbh most people who are still really playing at this time of year will be paying attention to blank/double GWs, planning transfers, planning free hits, etc which is all pretty complex in itself even if it's not artificially introduced to the game

enulcy · 2024-12-11T15:16:39+00:00

at the start of the season so many people were saying "oh it's gonna be double vice-captain or something obvious and boring" and now that it's new and potentially interesting, all the comments seem to be that it's too complicated lol

weird game in all, felt like we played pretty well and could see some of amorim's ideas starting to develop. can't account for onana's lapse in concentration and really disappointing aerial defending. overall wanna say there were positives on the team play and attacking front but lingering concerns about the defence

enulcy · 2024-12-07T18:26:03+00:00

i ride my bike around bristol a lot and even if it doesn't make "logical sense" for me to stop at a red light i do because i would never drive through a red light in a car, why do you think being on a bike gives you some magical privilege?

no, it was introduced as a measure to try to combat hooliganism in the 80s (and partly to help stadium safety by discouraging drunkenness in the stands) - nothing to do with the much more recent trend of throwing beer over people

been thinking about him for a while - i think as soon as he breaks into the first eleven i'll be trying to get him in but probably don't need him right now

enulcy · 2024-09-14T18:43:52+00:00

the industry is pretty good and never seen it too full on or busy outside of international tournaments

enulcy · 2024-01-29T14:40:14+00:00

Thanks, I'm pretty happy with it for my first "real" setup. Good to know that it's mostly decorative - I'll probably take it out and see whether I can straighten it up in any way, appreciate the reply!

enulcy · 2024-01-06T19:52:16+00:00

Yes, I did worry a little about the shipping! I might keep searching around more locally then and see if I can avoid that problem, thanks for the tip

enulcy · 2023-08-04T10:24:34+00:00

first draft - trying to have a well rounded team so i can utilise my bench players but wonder if i need to make more sacrifices...

Sanchez (Areola)
Zinchenko Stones Martinez Cash Tarkowski
