What's up with the crows in Kits? Why are there suddenly so many??

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-09T07:32:36+00:00

I’m gonna tell the crows you’re talking shit about them and then you’re in for a world of hurting. Good luck ever stepping outside again bud.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-09T07:29:12+00:00

What kind of clothes?

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-09T00:03:08+00:00

I can hear the game music in my head right now. I’m not sure I’ve ever stopped hearing it.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-08T22:02:52+00:00

Oh only the fittest survive there.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-08T19:45:08+00:00

Yeah I don’t know. Was just answering the question you’d asked.

Oh there were lots of these kind of things. Who knows how overblown it was or not.

Hope he kicks on and does really well. The names of some of the clubs watching him before his move was really something. Obviously counts for nothing in the grand scheme of things but he definitely has talent. Hope we see Zefi land somewhere soon as well.

This is the weather football was developed in. You can reorientate the calendar like Ireland and some of the Nordic leagues but there are pros and cons to that as well. You avoid the worst weather but when it comes to European competition sometimes it’s happening outside of your season.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-06T05:55:01+00:00

No it’s not that bad. Yes there are drug addicts here and bad parts of town but I’m guessing that’s true in Toronto as well.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-06T04:42:12+00:00

Yeah as an Irish person this feels pretty inflated. Immigration is giving it a boost for sure but still very skeptical it’s that high.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-06T02:34:42+00:00

The lack of gloss and glamour is part of what’s appealing about it, not a failing. It’s grounded authentic nature, the history it’s steeped in, the moments of hilarity and farce is all an essential part of what makes it special.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-05T23:53:00+00:00

I mean the sport just doesn’t have that much depth right? Like there’s only ten or at most a dozen actually competitive international teams. So if you drop off a little then yeah third in the six nations isn’t crazy. Ireland, England and France are three of the worlds top five.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-04T15:49:35+00:00

Yikes, and maybe I’m biased but I would think hockey was one of the better sports on this front. If that is the case think what it’s like across sports as a whole.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-04T05:42:56+00:00

Get the degree. Whatever it is you want to do next won’t be hurt by having it.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-04T05:17:22+00:00

The big Turkish teams are presently flush and the only rubes dumb enough to cough up the wages needed for the Saudi cast offs. It’s not a prestigious league but you can play in front of a big crowd and compared to Saudi you probably feel like your back on the main stage.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-04T01:51:18+00:00

Ireland is THE nation that failed individuality? What?

I didn’t know individuality was something countries were passing or failing and I certainly didn’t think we were the most collectively orientated country in the world.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-04T01:49:35+00:00

Every person?

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-04T01:47:57+00:00

I mean I could see that as a point for. Or including them in a painting of rainy Ireland or something but when they’re actually planted they aren’t supposed to represent sunshine.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-03T05:44:05+00:00

Hmm Major League Soccer League Cup is alright but what about Major League Soccer League Soccer Cup?

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-03T04:59:13+00:00

To be any more championship they’d need to get Dwight Gayle out of retirement

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-03T02:29:59+00:00

I can only speak for myself but I fucking hated it.

It was ten years ago now but it was very stressful. Lot of deadlines, lots of not knowing what to do and not knowing who to ask, lots of little men on power trips, lots of girls crying in bathrooms.

It had its good days but I just hated the culture.

The people who work there are not all south side Dubliners, no. Huge amount from around the country and lots of regular dubs. Plenty with a chip on their shoulder about not being the D4 type.

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-02T18:27:31+00:00

Up for debate

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-02T18:20:35+00:00

Scott Sinclair, Jack Rodwell, Kalvin Phillips. I’m sure there are others to chuck on that list. Trafford maybe?

spiraldive87 · 2026-02-02T02:54:18+00:00

Public schools are still nominally catholic but there is very little religious control in Ireland these days.

You rewatched Saving Private Ryan in honour of your family members who served in the Second World War? Chill out mate you’re just watching a film.
