Anon reacted to RadioactiveWaste in Rovrum appoint former manager
The bit where he says he's going to throw the players into the pit of the sarlak to be slowly digested over a thousand years was one of the best motivational speeches I've seen from any manager.

Anon got a reaction from i-Ram in Worst, cringe making, irritating,adverts
I don't really watch TV, so my gripes are all radio issues.
Adverts where the company name is repeated about 20 times in the space of 30 seconds.
Any advert where they think shouting will somehow induce me to buy their product.
Tool hire/van insurance etc ads that insist on using the exact same white van man caricature. Also, any of these type of adverts that are voiced by Ralph Ineson (which is about 90% of them).

Anon reacted to B4’s Sister in DCFC Supporters Awards Night
What a brilliant night! Dan (B4) and Angie Vallance received the Alfreton supporters award. I almost missed it as I was in the loo 😂 the glass award is lovely and will have pride of place in my parents house. The players looked visibly touched when it was announced Dan and Angie were being awarded posthumously. It was lovely to see so over 200 people there to celebrate DCFC and those who love the club. I had no idea what to expect but it was amazing. Lovely food and company. I had no idea the players and David Clowes would be there, so that was a lovely surprise.

Anon got a reaction from ariotofmyown in The Real Brian Clough
Yes, Leeds were playing well enough, but it was a completely different style of football. A style that Clough didn't like and wouldn't have been proud to play as a manager, even if it had continued to bring success. I think there's definitely some truth in Clough wanting to destroy Revie's team, as he could be incredibly petty at times. It only makes me like him more as it's exactly what I'd do to Leeds if given the opportunity. It was a bad match up in general though. The Leeds players were also a petty and small minded bunch who worshipped the ground Revie walked on. They would've undermined any new manager, even if that manager wasn't as abrasive and confrontational as Clough. Also, it's usually harder to win things when you are no longer paying your opponents to lose.

Anon got a reaction from therealhantsram in Will Hughes
Why on earth would Hughes come to Derby? He's 28 and playing regularly in the Premier League. If the best he can get if Palace don't renew is an offer from League 1/Championship he needs to sack his agent. Signing released Premier League is a bad idea in most instances. They demand high wages and don't usually justify them. Ideally teams should look to identify players on the way up in their career trajectory.

“He only played a few minutes, and yet he didn't work hard and avoided tussle. If you run less than a footballer who has played 90 minutes, you're not even a footballer. Fame doesn't win football games. If it did, I would have brought in a famous retired player.” - Kim Gi-dong.
JLingz has impressed his new manager already.

I do remember them. I had no idea they had such an odd name.
I mainly remember Mills because he's one of the players who sometimes becomes a world beater in the first iteration of the Championship Manager video game. I love this quote about Mills from his Telford United manager, "I don't want to put too much pressure on Lee but I am hopeful he might have the same kind of impact as Alan Shearer had when he moved from Blackburn to Newcastle".

Correct. My daughter made a 'willie's shrinkle' of him when she was about 8 years old. Anyone remember them? Basically you drew a picture on a piece of plastic, stuck it in the oven and it shrank so you could turn it into a fridge magnet or keyring.

Anon got a reaction from angieram in Scott Carson
"it" is a British passport, or more precisely it's that he meets the home grown player requirements, is cheap, and play in a position where he is unlikely to be used.
