No, for sure, but there are lots of similarities between them. Similar to the way there's a different accent basically by each town in Ireland, never mind major region

Throwaway comment, peopole reading too much into it

3rd last won't get 36 points. The table might end up looking terrible for us, but we're safe now

Arsenal 0-1 Brighton

oh, is it 8-0 they lose by every year? I thought it was 9

Chelsea taking their recent run of poor form out on Southampton - 3-0 up after 22 mins. Annual 9-0 Southampton defeat on the way?

Leeds 1 up against Watford

Oh that is tragic defending and goalkeeping. How the hell do you let someone score from there

Oh absolutely, we've basically had 4-5 new squads in that 10 year window

In terms of transfer spend, I genuinely reckon we'll bypass United at some point in the next decade The best numbers I can find right now for the last 10 years in europe have united top of spending in europe with 1.075bn, and we're 9th with 424m. Of those 10 years, we spent 3 in the Championship, and 5 1/2 as relegation battlers. Our spending has actually been crazy (more than Chelsea, Inter, Bayern, Liverpool, and Spurs)

It's the type of game we might actually end up winning comfortably, before absolutely thrashed by Burnley twice

Scarily, I'm not sure how long more we'll be able to say that

My mother can't tell the difference between English and Australian accents, but could pick a Canadian accent out of a hundred North Americans. She's not Canadian, and has been here twice in her life, but she somehow picks up on an accent that is almost identical to what most non-North Americans would class as a generic North American accent. It's actually insane. She'll randomly be talking to someone in Ireland and roll out "so what part of Canada are you from" and they just look absolutely blown away. It's actually very impressive given that, to my knowledge, she'd met one Canadian in her life prior to me moving over here. *EDIT* And for sheer randomness, my Canadian wife can't tell the difference between Geordie and Scottish. She swears they're identical.

I really hope we don't start Nakamba tbh. He's been out for a long, long time and has 60-odd minutes in the tank for the U-23s. That's no preparation for a PL game against a decent side. Chambers there with Marv on around 70 mins would probably be the best approach

And yet they're still pushing the CL spots. I'm not sure if it's a damning indictment of how bad the teams below them are, or that they're just the luckiest team in the world.

Yeah it's basically 3 words Canadian, 3 words Irish, and it makes absolute mush of my brain when I hear it - it's like I'm trying to calibrate what the accent is, but it keeps flipping and eventually my brain just gives up Ironically, after being in Canada for the best part of 15 years I have now lost the ability to tell the difference between a Canadian accent and and Irish accent if I hear it in the street. My wife usually has to point out someone is Irish, because they sound the same in isolation. It's only with a newfie accent where I can spot the immediate difference

Goal for Everton. I reckon if they lose this one from being ahead again that’s totally it for them in terms of confidence

We’ve had a lot of really strong young driver come through in the last 5 years or so too IMO Definitely a stronger second tier of drivers than I can ever remember

Im very concerned that I’ve picked up a bit of a Canadian twang since I moved over here. I frequently find myself either dropping t’s (torono instead of toronto) or turning them into d’s (oddawa instead of Ottawa) The full on brogue comes back after I’ve been on the phone home, but I fear that, day to day, I’ve adopted a horrific hybrid, such is the frequency that natives ask if I’m a Newfie and speaking of newfie, if you haven’t heard that abomination, prepare your ears and souls for a true horror:

Hahaha you are living my life

Such an unlikeable chap. I've never met a single person who actually seems to like him, or has any semblance of wanting to see him do well

“Reported” is evidence of absolutely nothing though

Still got an original launch Vita knocking about. Keep meaning to mod it for old roms

I thought that's how it'd feel for me, because I have ginormous inhuman shovel hands, but I tried the wife's when she got it and found it a pleasant fit. For $140 with a case it was definitely worth it (they retail for $260+tax here). I can see how you might not like it though

Literally just grabbed a switch lite off facebook marketplace due to a crazy low price. Already have the regular switch, but never found it comfortable to play as a handheld, so it's perma-docked. The lite is a lot more comfortable (just had a quick Mario Kart blast to "test it" while I should really be working)
