This is pretty damn easy. Scalpers have gobbled up most of the tickets and aren't booking rooms. Nobody is buying those expensive tickets and therefore not booking cross country travel without tickets



Yup, and by the time scalpers accept they're going to have to take a loss, it will be too late for many people to go.
Anything can happen in a game, but based on form, I feel very confident in saying Bubbles United is going down.

re: race/gender swap casting that worked

I'm so/so on the movie, but Jeffrey Wright was good as Gordon. I thought Judi Dench was a great M. Combining Wright and Bond, I liked him as Felix Leiter.

Generally I don't care if a character is race/gender swapped if it's not important to the character and doesn't feel like pandering.
I’ll be damned. It’s Xabi.


Best I’ve ever felt after a cup final defeat.
I honestly expect the team to completely tank against Spurs. We may see them celebrate clinching survival at Stamford Bridge.
Have to think Slot is out now, which would almost certainly mean no Alonso.

Maybe I’m heartless, but I’m honestly to the point where I’m just more interested in them trying to run a club and barely paying attention to the sad stories of locals.

That said, Trina the cleaner drops an all time great quote in episode 2.

So the reports saying Xabi Alonso. How do we frick this up?


Despite the reports, I think it’s fairly unlikely. I still think he has his eyes on Liverpool and is maybe hoping they’ll give up on Slot (and it very much seems like the fans already have).

Plus, I just don’t think he would be interested in working for BlueCo.

This is going to get good to great critical reviews, make a bunch of money, and this board is going to hate it.
It’s looking like it’s very much going to burn down. But not “burn it down and rebuild.” Its just going to be ashes.
Marco Silva is probably excited to coach this team for 3 months then get a huge buyout.

I’m sure Arsenal Atletico will live up to this.
As we talk finances and the money we need to buyout Rosenior, it’s worth reiterating that hiring him in the first place cost us Champions League money for next year.

Do you mean musical biopic? Surely you can’t mean no good biopic ever.

What other movies from this director would u recommend


I’m not who you were asking, but I like all his Korean movies, except maybe his directorial debut (Barking Dogs Never Bite), which was just okay.

Parasite is my favorite of his. Memories of Murder second. I also think Mother and The Host are very good.

I don’t care for his English language movies (even Snowpiercer, which got great reviews and I think people here do like). But I will watch whatever he does next.
Yeah, Rosenior can't last the rest of the season, can he?

I honestly think accidentally winning the FA Cup would be worse if it meant he kept his job.
Also seeing plenty of articles and stories about financial issues. No idea how bad it actually is, but that, combined with the fact that some of our best players seem sick of this, and sales could be coming. I’m sure we will replace them with promising teenagers.
Rosenior needs to go as well. And they need to actually look for a manager that doesn’t require on the job training.
