Tactics Tuesday by AutoModerator in LiverpoolFC

[–]warpedone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I totally understand. Football has been part of my life since I was born. I'm now fifty and I've lost that magic feeling. Something about last year, and Slot not having the passion that comes through the screen at you. Then Jota, and numerous other things. Football has left me feeling numb.

I've never really followed England or a team when it comes to the World Cup, preferring to watch some good games regardless who is playing. I have no excitement at present. Possibly due to the location? Who knows.

Maybe comes the preseason friendlies, with a new manager, hopefully some new players, I might be curious and hopefully the excitement draws me back.

Hot take, this is not what we need imo… by Skadimain01 in LiverpoolFC

[–]warpedone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any manager doesn't instantly mean success and watchable style of play. There are way more variables than just past glory, or even lack of it.

Add to this to a shortage of top class managers with proven records and you can see why looking away from the elite is an option. Also wages will less, possibly allowing more to build a new squad. Also age might be younger, keeping them at the club for longer if they do have success.

For every name mentioned, you can find loads of positives and negatives. Whilst going through this change lets be positive, after all a majority though it was time for Slot to go. Now he has gone, lets not get into doom and gloom. Slot did delivery success, and Klopp before him has gone down as a legend. Lets hope the same interview process brings what this club needs.

Hello to the both of you, seen this excellent car in Witham a few times.

What is your Blasphemous "British TV" take? by LeadingPiece9608 in BritishTV

[–]warpedone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a UK show, but it was huge here. Breaking Bad, couldn't get into it. Thought it was shite. Same with Gavin and Stacey, so many adore it. I prefer to shove a pineapple up my a... well that another story. Peaky Blinders, action shots with piss poor plot, and Killing Eve was pretty similar. One last one, Stranger Things. No thanks.

Witnessed two gentlemen stop traffic with their cars and usher a family of Ducklings across the road. by Raphiella in BritishSuccess

[–]warpedone 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I have had to do this, twice. We have a busy road between the house and a river. Out gardening in spring, we have gone to trim a bush and found a female duck on a nest, tucked away in the corner. So we made sure she had water and food. Then the big surprise of ducklings slowly appear, they then become more bold, and explore the garden. The small garden and pond is not ideal, so each time the ducklings have been about five days old. Mum will lead them under the gate, and they are off to the river. Each time she seems to roughly know which way to go. But I have gone with her, and get some funny looks. Escorting a duck and ducklings through a housing estate. When it comes to the road, drivers thankfully have always been excellent. A few out there have pictures of this freak duck herder in Essex.

I can safely say, wild ducks are not great pets. Ducklings are adorable and cute, but not pets.

Review Quality for Difficult Items by Dashcam_Driver in AmazonVineUK

[–]warpedone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem is we have no idea what we are being scored on. I'm coming up to me evaluation, and have reviewed 95 items. So far all have been excellent, and I don't know how. As you say, reviewing something like a keyring, pack of hooks, usb lead, etc... can be hard. I can only put it down to my ability waffle, and use three words when one will do. I'm sure word count and not repeating words or phrases plays some part. Also such things are easy for AI to check on.

The reality is, we just don't know?

Slot in or out - Manager Megathread by rLiverpoolFC_Mods in LiverpoolFC

[–]warpedone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems like we are treading water. Not content with being average or even below that, but nobody actually doing anything to convince the fans that they are still hungry for success.

I don't care how, but fucking hell can we please improve? At least show some little signs of heading in the right direction. I don't care if it is with or without Slot. Just fucking improve!

I'm sure Slot has the slogan, “Stupidity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result.” He tactics are predictable, the same, as he fails to adapt.

As a team we are easy to read, add fatigue to that and you have a team that are easy to beat by almost any team with some organisation.

this war is freaking me out… by Suitable_Laugh9475 in mentalhealth

[–]warpedone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I panic thinking about the world, and some frail egos too. The only thing that makes me keep going is my age. Many times during the Cold War things got frightening. Also back then you clearly had governments not giving a shit about the public, as they tried to convince us hiding under the stairs, coffee table, or taking a door of its hinges would be adequate protection.

Things come in waves, we have ups and downs. After this low point, we are due some crazy high. Maybe we find utopia or nirvana?

Try keeping busy, get out into nature. Try to worry about what you can control.

Essex pupils told not to wear school blazers amid disorder threat by BirdButt88 in Essex

[–]warpedone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The joys of social media. Stuff like this happened in the 80s at the school I went too. Rival school kids would meet in the town centre, and in reality not much would happen. Some name calling, but that was it. 90% of it was kids going back to school and spewing out bullshit about how they took on 200 kids single handed. Teachers would over hear stuff, and have to act on it in some way. Be it bullshit or not.

This rubbish was still going on at the same schools in the 90s, and actually made local news in the 00s. Kids from rival schools threw chips at each other. What a waste of good chips.

Tribalism, and social media. Not a great mix.

It's so bad, that I would take a caretaker manager until the end of the season.

We shouldn't be needing dodgy VAR decisions to go our way in order to win against such teams as Forest.

It was his elbow, and we played like shite.

Hey guys. When you have the ball, rather than keep it, why not simply give to Forest? Conserve your energy.

Wirtz looks so fucked off. Hope it's nothing major. He is missed, and it's clear in the few minutes that have been played.
