Re: The Official Talk About Whatever Thread

I don't even understand why this has been reported, but I am of the opinion that you're all insane.

Also nice article Kizz, though just a question, how much freedom do you have in preparing a post-match article? I'm sure you'd love to do more of an editorial, but I imagine you're quite limited as a fairly new contributor.

Also is your podcast with Crimson still running?

Do you people know each other in real life now? I'm so confused by these reports.

I can pretty much do whatever I like, but in terms of what people actually read... I've found that putting plenty of work into long pieces often isn't worth it.

This one was completely my idea. I did it because I had little time and I think stats are interesting.

Fair enough, I suppose it's also a good way to ensure that your piece appeals to both sides. Writing on a disappointing result, it's always hard not to focus your writing on what your team should have doe better and why they failed, rather than focusing on the positives of the opposition.

Yeah we know each other Evil or Very Mad

I'd like the details of my life (no matter how incorrect) to remain a bit private, thank you very much.

Exactly, though Celtic fans abused me last time even though all I did was say that the fact that Celtic had the ball for like 45 seconds and scored from their only shots was incredible... Which it is.

I'm thinking of doing some pieced on Barca legends and then maybe one on Spanish youth. However, I'd like to do some analysis pieces again.

Going up to the Coast to watch Western Sydney vs Mariners on Saturday. The away bay at Blue Tongue Stadium is sold out and all further Wanderers fans coming up will have to pay were ever they can find a seat. Tbh those who will watch the game will find more Wanderers than Mariners fans at the game.
What Wanderers have become since being created :bow:

Mariners fans who don't go to games should be ashamed. Top of the table for almost the whole season and scoring plenty of goals, yet they struggle to get 10k in. Pretty pathetic.

Couldn't agree more... Most of them get tickets on the day... Raining they won't go...

Bit early in the season for transfer rumours, no?

by BarcaKizz Sat Mar 02, 2013 10:14 am

Transfer wrapups are done monthly on there.

by Forza Sat Mar 02, 2013 10:58 am

So you have to write a transfer wrap-up each month?

Not me personally, but they want one each month from someone, and I thought I'd do it for them today.

Normally I think, easy article... but I always spend so fking long on them... perfectionist.
