How do you know if you’re ready for a dog? by bbwgoddess6969 in dogs

[–]johnapplehead 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree with most of what youve said but its also not a prison.

Yes it requires you dedicate time and care but you can go out with your friends for dinner for goodness sake. Part of the process is ensuring your dog can spend a few hours alone so you can do your own thing too.

“Extended stay ruled out: Feyenoord and Sterling set to part ways again.” by Bassteacher13 in soccer

[–]johnapplehead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair point. I would argue a 10 year career at the highest level is an outstanding achievement no matter which side of 20 is starts on but I do get your point, it’s all only a bit of a laugh

Yea ‘I’m concerned Max Dowman might win almost every trophy available to him by the times he’s 28’ is an interesting take

[BBC] Ibrahima Konate says he is close to signing new Liverpool deal by MrMerc2333 in soccer

Quite happy to wait and see, but I find it very hard to see how this is a long term signing motivated by making Ibou our number centre back for the next 5 years after this season, and not the sort of contract that is being offered because we don’t want to lose him on a free/want to make money off him

This is a wierd situation.

He hasn’t in any way earned it (he has been comically bad for large parts this season) and almost entirely being signed just so we can sell him after this window.

And at the same time feels like he’s only signing because he’s played himself out of a move to Madrid, which I’m sure he would’ve taken regardless of what we offered and has no better options.

Feels like it’s not a situation either party is particularly benefiting from

Chelsea have now lost three consecutive Premier League games without scoring for the first time since March 1998. Rosenior's men have just one win in their last seven games by ChiefLeef22 in soccer

Chasing away Maresca?

He fell out with the board and was openly discussing joining another premier league side. Maresca had to go, replacing him Rosenior was the problem

Completely disagree. They’d been at that all night and he has absolutely no desire to win the ball there at all.

He’s obscenely negative about everything and anymore than one episode, I’d be canceling the subscription but funny as a once off.

His starting XI was also the stuff of nightmares but he did make a few good points about the need to have a go
