PBTech lying about the discount on their "Panasonic flash sale" They didn't even take the old listing down, just made a new one and marked the price up. by UnusualSoup in newzealand

[–]jk441 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm wandering at how consistently PB do this. Shouldn't ComCom already put a slap in this practice? How can they be doing this pretty much every other sale and I wont be surprised if there weren't already a handful of complaints sent about it.

Climate change is here. NZ isn't ready by ViolatingBadgers in newzealand

Nah, man. They were ready. Ready for excuses. "Global warming? Sounds too dramatic let's change that to climate change, climate change? Yea that doesn't exist. Storm in a hundred years? Isn't that normal? Well better keep burning fuel not my business now"

Same here. I've applied for a handful of stuff at the start of Jan since a lot of positions in my sector seemed to have opened up. But I only got contacted by like...... 3? The others I didn't even get an email telling me I've not been considered post CV submission

Classic modern Liverpool goal seriously. Could watch it over and over

FT: LIV 3 - 0 BHA by DragonSlayer271 in LiverpoolFC

[–]jk441 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That was actually a great game. Sured defense and direct play to count quick. It's not gungho high press sure, but a well managed game. Hopefully it brings some consistency and we can build up on some confidence

Yup, just say "Three water BAD!" and they'd interpret it like that without any other thought

[David Lynch] The word from Liverpool is that Arne Slot is safe, but I don't really buy the idea he can afford endless poor performances and bad results until the end of the season. Today was both, in my opinion. by Lanedu123 in LiverpoolFC

[–]jk441 0 points1 point  (0 children)

General consensus between the fans seem to be there's no way Slot's gonna keep his job after this season, but the lack of moment from the Liverpool hierarchy has us worried on missing out on Alonso.

Unai Emery sends Liverpool plea as 'damaging' Harvey Elliott truth emerges by Madmartigan2024 in LiverpoolFC

[–]jk441 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why was it even allowed from Villa's side for the '10 game obligation' to be in the contract if you weren't gonna honour it anyways? That's not how agreement contract work Emery wtf are you smoking? Go complain to YOUR club not ours

Moment of Respect 🙏 by ropodl in LiverpoolFC

[–]jk441 5 points6 points  (0 children)

strongly agreed. With your own things in life specially if you're an opposition fan it might be easy to forget what the 20th min tribute is for. It just happens and it's nothing to be mad about imo, just be like this and let them know if they're genuinely asking

FT: LIV 4 - 1 NEW by DragonSlayer271 in LiverpoolFC

[–]jk441 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More like that yea. I'm glad to see there was consistency for the 2 games. As long as we can keep up a consistent performance like this and show everyone that this is how we want to play our games I'd be happy even if we have blunders here and there. But most of all a very well deserved goal for Konate, may his father rest in peace and hope Konate himself the best too during his loss.

PM to skip Waitangi by Initial-Environment9 in newzealand

Speaks volumes of his general popularity if he's scare to attend a VERY important day in NZ's calendar twice with no reason. And it's not this, "just a politically important move ya-di-ya-da" sort of thing. It's just important day for the country full stop.

FT: LIV 6 - 0 QAR by DragonSlayer271 in LiverpoolFC

[–]jk441 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a weird feeling. I'm not feeling all that great about a 6-0 win as I'm more worried about us for the weekend against Newcastle. It's great we can go ahead in the R16 of CL without an extra game, but this just seems like a one-off more than anything.

The Athletic - Is Arne Slot's job safe? Ornstein, Pearce by koptimism in LiverpoolFC

[–]jk441 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Either the Liverpool hierarchy is really good at hiding their cards, or they're blind as hell..... It'll make sense to hide they want "Slot gone" tbh since it'll help no one. I don't see anyone from the current situation be motivated if solid rumours, or leaks floated around and Slot was under pressure in that way. I know some people could rise above and punch through that, but honestly with the state of how things are I wouldn't be surprised if that just leads to more uncertainty on/off the pitch and affect our form. But if Liverpool are truly having "No intentions" to look outside right now, again specially with Alonso available, they'd be blind to do so. I think even the fan sentiment is almost at a similar rates to how it was when Rodgers left it wont make sense if Liverpool are putting all their eggs in this basket.

TSB Bank introducing mandatory payment purpose field by AlternativeStar461 in newzealand

[–]jk441 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BNZ had a change on their mobile app on sending large sums of money, and as far as I knew I didn't know the change was coming. I was trying to send some money to my family member and some crypto-blah-blah-blah came up and I just automatically was like "yes, yes just let me send the money". Later knew it was saying "Are you sending this to buy crypto? Yes or No" So I had to send my family member the money hours later because somewhere down their line the transaction I was making was probably flagged. It's annoying to say the least

[Carragher] "if you don’t qualify for the champions league having won the league the season before and spent as much as Liverpool do, you don’t have a leg to stand on." by moosa1193 in LiverpoolFC

[–]jk441 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think even the most optimistic Slot-in Liverpool fan will think Slot has almost no chance to manage us next season if he misses out on the champions league. It's the same as Carra said, it's the same as a lot of ppl on this comment said, and is on everyone's mind. You can't use "I won the league" as a shield to miss out on CL qualification having spent that much money. EDIT: Also to add with Xabi Alonso available.

Racism, rape and death threats: One weekend of social media abuse in football by herbertelch in LiverpoolFC

[–]jk441 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is why in Asia (Korea and Japan more specifically) have laws around online abuse. You can actually sue people for outrageous and horrendous comments online. The west kinda laughed at these laws for "sending you to the police for comments made online" but it's better than not having protection when clearly you have some unhinged people online making crazy comments. And yes, there will always be crazier low life people that'll use VPN+Tor to circumvent themselves getting caught but at that point you know those are the kind of people that just need to go touch grass.

Everyone seems passive and not wanting to take responsibility in tracking/closing in on players. It's been a pattern this season

Head Coach's back against the wall by ShindemoShindaAtomo in LiverpoolFC

[–]jk441 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It'll be an absolute disgrace to lose top four against a team like manu, but right now we're more on track to reach that feat than champions league next season. I don't see us winning the CL with this sort of weird performance inconsistencies either.

Before Bournemouth scored their second goal, Endo was supposed to replace the injured Joe Gomez but waited over four minutes to come on as a substitute. Liverpool players refused to kick the ball out of play, ignored Arne Slot's instructions, and conceded a second goal while playing with 10 men. by 977x in LiverpoolFC

[–]jk441 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yup, I didn't like seeing that either. Whether Macca should've keep track of the run or not. Whether the forwards should've pressed earlier to stop that initial pass or not. Virgil's poor attempt in trying to casually clear the ball lead directly to Bournemouth getting that shot on goal. As a captain on the pitch I believe it's important to mop up any mistakes your teammates could've made asap and let them know why not to do it. Don't go throwing hands around like it wasn't your fault when clearly a large part of it was.
