Monkeys Fist 38775 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 I’d hit the spam button in a second, but I got told off for threatening to do so hours after this fuckwit started. And I’m such a good boy… 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 4964 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 I think having someone in the discussion who has ready access to loads of stats and a willingness to dig them up could genuinely be a real asset on here tbf, it's a shame it's gone sideways. I'm tempted to make a final try at explaining to Clarko why this is so objectionable to the rest of us, but I can already imagine his reply and I've lost the will.

thebrokendoll 7093 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 i know i'm an old cunt, however.... you'd go to the match, and it would go something like this.... you'd avoid getting your head kicked in by the oppositions supporters. you'd have a few pints, or sometimes a bit more. you'd watch the game, have a sing and a jump about. come out feeling happy or miserable. buy a pink. have some more beer and discuss the match with your mates, who'd had a blinder, who'd been average and who'd had a nightmare. seems these days for some at least this has all been forsaken for video phones, stop watches, measuring tapes, calculators, slide rules and websites full of mathematical equations and mind-numbing statistics. fuck that. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayatollah Hermione 12767 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Aye, that’s the long and short of it. The prevalence of stats in crack between fans has only come about so kids who can’t kick a ball can pretend to know what they’re on about. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they're a fundamental, but I do think they can add something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
