Game

Who is Sky Sports' co-commentator on the Brentford-MC match? That accent has fascinated me for years and I want to learn where it's from.

south of birmingham sez wiki
will never ever understand how a cross in to that area finds a man unmarked by a centre half
i know ill sound prehistoric but fuck me, lads if ye only have one job its that

The other guy w/Smith, I think it's Seb Hutchinson. The slight introduction of a "w" sound when pronouncing r's, I'm going down a rwabbit/wrabbit hole and it seems there's some disagreement whether it's a regional accent or a slight speech impediment? Like, he just said "it's a gwreat chance"

i think speech impediment but ill give a good listen now

but tbh are you not describing smith there?
One of my daughter's best childhood friends did this and I think she got picked up a lot of pronunciations via her father who had a moderate hearing loss.
xp well they never show the booth guys talking so I don't know which one is which. I think of Smith as the play-by-play guy and Hutchinson is the deeper-voiced color commentator but maybe I have it backward.

Sorry for derail, this isn't the regional accents thread
― that's when I reach for my copy of Revolver (WmC), Monday, 5 February 2024 21:28 (two years ago)
you would not believe the derails weve had over the years, and in a lot better matches than this

enjoying reguilons crossbow arc crosses from deep
foden hat trick
feet so quick, so decisive
― close encounters of the third knid (darraghmac), Monday, 5 February 2024 21:31 (two years ago)
instructive to see what a man city goalie can do without action taken vsthe fouls out goalie has to endure without a whistle in each of our recent games
by which i mean this league is stinking and every ref is a cunt

blue cards

just part of football's optimisation arc, see also expanded major tournaments and the same teams winning everything forever

Can we exchange VAR for blue cards? I'd take that.
― cajunsunday, Friday, 9 February 2024 10:24 (two years ago)
Football needs a 'card rainbow' - red, yellow, blue, green, orange, indigo and violet. Also cards can be challenged in real time and the appeal judged by AI.

Countdown to breakaway "realness" league continues

Apropos of nothing I had an anxiety dream last night where Luton were drawing 6-6 with either Villa or Burnley, and I was following it online praying they wouldn't find a winner, but then they did 13 minutes into injury time
― Ethinically Ambigaus (Bananaman Begins), Friday, 9 February 2024 13:49 (two years ago)
You've somehow turned that into an anxiety dream for me too as we're the only club to ever win 7-6 in English football league history. Unparalleled depravity
― imago, Friday, 9 February 2024 13:51 (two years ago)
still say, take away VAR for offside, instead send the players a text message that says "Ur offside" in real time

Cunha hurt and departing. Ugh
― never trust a big book and a simile (Neanderthal), Saturday, 10 February 2024 15:19 (two years ago)
Non contact injury too. The worrying type
Bellegarde coming in
― never trust a big book and a simile (Neanderthal), Saturday, 10 February 2024 15:20 (two years ago)
Wolves concede first, shocker
― never trust a big book and a simile (Neanderthal), Saturday, 10 February 2024 15:36 (two years ago)
there we go Dawson!
― never trust a big book and a simile (Neanderthal), Saturday, 10 February 2024 16:09 (two years ago)
goal rescinded due to a fraction of centimeter of a toe. fuck VAR, fucking sick o this shit.
― never trust a big book and a simile (Neanderthal), Saturday, 10 February 2024 16:11 (two years ago)
Wolves just completely dominating and pulling Brentford out of shape but this has the eerie feeling of "well VAR chalked off our goal, now we're too in our heads to finish again", but hope to be wrong there.
― never trust a big book and a simile (Neanderthal), Saturday, 10 February 2024 16:25 (two years ago)
fuck this

spurs horrible, passing is shockingly bad and they are second to everything

centre halves used to defend crosses
im an old fart i know but whats the fucking job these days at all
― close encounters of the third knid (darraghmac), Sunday, 11 February 2024 18:19 (two years ago)
ye will already be seeing the potential for fuckery
― close encounters of the third knid (darraghmac), Saturday, 17 February 2024 15:05 (two years ago)
just once youd like a ref to have a homer at our place, already getting none of the scrappy decisions
― close encounters of the third knid (darraghmac), Saturday, 17 February 2024 15:08 (two years ago)
Xpost Hwang ridiculous miss, kinda feel like VAR woulda pulled it back for foul in buildup
This has the makings of a wild one
― CEO Greedwagon (Neanderthal), Saturday, 17 February 2024 15:09 (two years ago)
Lol yeah I was kinda surprised at what we got away with there
Feel like yr gonna put up 4 the say Wolves are defending
now we have son back theres a clinical edge, but hes very overrated in the buildup/possession richarlison make terrible decisions
the rest drop in and out bar maddison, when he plays we play
our centre halves and full backs tend not to prioritise what you might expect so dont write anything off tbh
― close encounters of the third knid (darraghmac), Saturday, 17 February 2024 15:13 (two years ago)
Kind of a fun open match so far
― CEO Greedwagon (Neanderthal), Saturday, 17 February 2024 15:14 (two years ago)
for ye maybe
― close encounters of the third knid (darraghmac), Saturday, 17 February 2024 15:21 (two years ago)
richarlison had a lot more quality when he player against us iirc
― close encounters of the third knid (darraghmac), Saturday, 17 February 2024 15:32 (two years ago)
not much to recommend this tbh
― close encounters of the third knid (darraghmac), Saturday, 17 February 2024 15:37 (two years ago)
serious lack of interest in doing the work, as usual
― close encounters of the third knid (darraghmac), Saturday, 17 February 2024 15:45 (two years ago)
Predictable

GET IN
― CEO Greedwagon (Neanderthal), Saturday, 17 February 2024 16:24 (two years ago)
i believe the phrase is GET THE FUCK IN
