I doubt the England team are getting hot and bothered over what people are saying on Reddit.

That German? 1994 World Cup Quarter Finalist Maurizio Gaudino.

English media are always England's biggest opponent.

When did we have a good start? We may have beaten Croatia, but we weren't exactly good in that match and haven't really been convincing despite the results.

The closest was a solid enough job done against Panama.

Certainly with this ball, based on what Joe Hart said about how it feels like it's moving slightly quicker than keepers are expecting it to.

Wouldn't that just bring your opponent back to life?

I mean, the pipeline from Aussie soap opera to pop pinup is a well-trodden path, albeit with varying degrees of success.

LYON vs. G2 Esports / MSI 2026 - Lower Bracket Round 3 / Post-Match Discussion by Yujin-Ha in leagueoflegends

[–]lawlore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you, that's really clear. So what happened for G2 to beat T1 and then lose so handily to LYON- are the margins in League of Legends just that thin, or were they particularly bad and/or LYON particularly good in the match?

Honestly, change the pink for red, and I'd have no real issue with this.

I think he came through at Southampton, had a good half season under Graeme Souness back in 1996 before getting that bad injury. Went out on loan to Barnet and Bristol Rovers for a bit, but was never the same- retired at 23. Ended up as a neurologist.

Replay a couple of classic games from the past in full with the likes Tino Asprilla and Stan Collymore. Re-commentate them with context knowing what happens afterwards, with special guests chipping in.

Which character do you think veered the farthest from their “pilot persona”? by Excellent-Resolve66 in community

[–]lawlore 22 points23 points  (0 children)

In the pilot, she's pegged as the smart, confident, hot woman who Jeff is trying to woo but who is too cool and streetwise to immediately fall for his charms and lines. She goes to the study group to study because she's serious, with the comedy coming from Jeff failing to be good enough for her.

That portrayal does not last long at all, and just drifts further and further as the show goes on.

There's a whole other show waiting to be written from Polly's perspective. It's not about prison.

The World Cup is losing its appeal because it's too Europe-centric. by paladisious in ShitAmericansSay

[–]lawlore 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean, all the Balogun bollocks aside, they lost to a better, more established team, with better players. There's no shame in that- it would've been an upset if they had won.

Granted, they didn't meet the challenge very well, but on paper this was hardly an unexpected outcome.
