@FootballCliches@CDEccleshare@D_C_W Following from your alt. commentary chat a few pods back - I was at a Scotland fanzone in London for the morroco game - inexplicably had their own live commentator on a mic over the PA. No TV comms/audio at all. After conceding so early this was not a welcome ‘quirky’ addition.
@stusfootyflash Did exactly the same thing. For a long time also thought Argentina ranked 4/5 were the best team in the game/world until discovering a little known 5/5 outfit called ‘Brazil’ just next door.
@Sanny_Rudra@FootballCliches@1AaronPaul 🤦🏻♂️ that’s entirely my mistake. Both your praises were rightly sung and both credited correctly within the pod of course.
@D_C_W@FootballCliches If you could ask Jim next time you cross paths if he’s ever shouted down to Hazel Irvine from the Swiss Family Robinson treehouse - that’s the abiding memory - it would be genuinely appreciated.
@FootballCliches@D_C_W you guys are uniquely placed to help here - I’m sure growing up I watched on VHS Jim White and Hazel Irvine travel round Disneyworld. Maybe as an offshoot of WC94 coverage? I’ve never been able to find footage to confirm whether this is just a fever dream.
@D_C_W was convinced your story about imploring Alex Greenwood to “Stand up!” was going to end with the young Americans mistakenly taking that as an instruction to them and the rest of the pub and nervously, ‘standing up’.
@Selfridges what’s going on with your website? About 3/4 in product pages don’t seem to exist - ‘oops we can’t seem to find the page you were looking for’ errors all over the place.
@British_Airways Hi, I’m constant receiving an error when trying to confirm my chosen seats. Saying I should contact my ‘local BA office’.
But I cannot get through to your call centre it cuts me off and the chat bot is useless.
@TheVolleyLondon Hi, is there any availability to book a table for Sat 6th July’s 5pm game with you guys? Can’t work out if the open table widget is working properly or not on your site. Cheers!
@TheVolleyLondon Unfortunately it’s not showing anything available for Sat 6th July for me. For any time or any party size. Would you have space from 4ish for 9 of us?
@TheVolleyLondon Ok thanks, I’ll have another go. It would be 9 of us which is why I thought there was no availability but then couldn’t see anything even for 2 people. We can pay a deposit in advance if needs be.
@RestIsPolitics@RoryStewartUK@campbellclaret When world leaders meet and require translators to talk to one another - are there secondary translators to verify / moderate how something has been translated?
To avoid errors or even wilful misrepresentation of what is being said?
