That was ****ing awful jesus christ.

Rooney gets ton of abuse and rightly so but Mata was atrocious and has been for some time, nice guy but the definition of a luxury player, would snap swap for Mahrez/Mane.

lol united fans still over speculating their transfer hopes
01-09-2016 , 05:18 PM
will swap any five of our starters plus a bag of magic beans for mata
01-09-2016 , 07:38 PM

He was on pointless earlier. Name a country beginning with A,L or T

Lawrenson: Alaska

I was out all day so I did the retro "avoid all footie scores and watch MOTD blind" thing. Never doing that again.

Must say it's infuriating that not only do they not show a clock on the highlights (so any second half action could be the last move of the game, or there could be half a ****ing hour left and we're none the wiser) but they now apparently don't even bother putting the score in the top corner. And some commentators choose to relay the highlights in story form, telling us who won before showing us the action.

Also, how is Mark Lawrenson still getting paid to talk about football? Hope he dies.

LOL I heard about that too.

Hes had a bad day but handled it quite well, so well infact I'd bet its not the first time penis has fallen out of his mouth

ye highlight shows spoilering games before or during play still one of the big "wtfs" of our time
the internet seems to have ruined these shows completely

I watch each game individually on fullmatchesandshows.com for that reason(they have full games up like 30 mins after a half has ended as well for bigger games)
01-09-2016 , 08:25 PM
who's going to make the good jokes if lawrenson were to get the boot though?

I haven't done that in ages. Even when I can't watch the (usually Bayern) game live, I'm checking all the results before watching. I just can't get back into the pre ubiquitous availability age vibe. Or the radio simulcast vibe, which used to be really great.

In other (unrelated, though no less important) news: The Division Bell is one of the most underrated albums in music history.

Spoiler:
FACT!
01-09-2016 , 08:47 PM
I still like the radio simulcasts from time to time (only when my team isn't playing obv)

But yeah haven't done sportschau sweating in ages
01-09-2016 , 08:50 PM
I was huge on Pink Floyd back in my pot-smoking days of the early 90s, and one of my A-level English Lit courseworks was even a study on the multiple symbolic applications of the phrase "The Wall" in the album of the same name, but I must confirm that The Division Bell is unquestionably AIDS I'm afraid

The first show you should have been exposed to should anyways be WÖAT ÖAT ran, isn't it? If that were the case for me, I wouldn't even have nostalgic feelings, I don't think. Pre RTL/Sat1 highlight show coverage days still create a warm, fuzzy feeling inside of me. Moustache'd Waldemar Hartmann presenting the oldschool Sportschau.
01-09-2016 , 08:57 PM
Yeah Ran was the first. Don't have much of a memory though

Sportschau took back over when I was 9 or 10 (not sure if 2002 or 2003) so I do have some fond memories of me and my bro watching it and ruining the couch by doing goalkeeper practice

I know that I'm pretty alone in my (factual) opinion, and I do get why. No Waters, and Gilmour basically waging open war on him in the lyrics is a bit meh. And I'm not saying it's their greatest work ever, but neither did it deserve to get panned the way it did. There are legit great songs on it. Keep Talking is ****ing awesome (and it features Stephen Hawking, too), as are What Do You Want From Me and High Hopes. I like Lost for Words, too, and A Great Day For Freedom even features the phrase "The Wall".

sportschau is nice but at a bad time
zdf sportstudio perfect time but they pretty much spoiler everything but the late game, donks.

And if you want to talk about Pink Floyd AIDS, TDB is better than Atom Heart Mother in every respect, and that's another FACT!
