Serves Unai right. Next time he will not put all his eggs in one basket.
How could he give away that 4th (champions league) position so cheaply? All because of Europa Cup?
Very foolish man.
Yea that man is stuck on stupid all right, but so are those useless Arsenal players.

Nigeria qualified for knock out stage with 4 GD.
These suckers don't even need to win to advance. With a draw, they could still make Round 16 as best losers.

Don't just know why things brought to Nigeria with good intentions are destroyed with wickedness...

The other story I heard from Nigeria info was about a lady called Chioma. She boarded the vehicle from lekki or so, she told the driver that she doesn't have cash on her that she was gonna do transfer, the driver innocently agreed not knowing Chiomas intention.

When they got to Yaba she feign that the network was bad, the driver still told her to go and try to send the money when the network is good. Few weeks after she has been mocking the driver, calling him mumu whenever he calls her...

Why are some people like this?

Another driver called to report that a driver was killed at Oshodi too.

Who caused this nation with wicked people self...
I listened to that edition of "Hard Facts" shacked up in utter fear . Why are my Nigerian people like this? Lord knows we haven't an iota of empathy in us.

Who would have thought that it was Lord Edmure who dubbed Baelish the nickname, 'Littlefinger'? Edmure Tully?? No, couldn't be! LOL Yes, that's what I thought too. Edmure in the show looked a real sucker.

By the way I learned that only yesterday when I began reading the books.


We should all read the damn books abeg. It's glorious!

The one with Oberyn broke Tyrion's heart. Especially when he mentioned what Cersei did to him before Jamie made her stop grin
Pinching, tightly, her baby brother's little coc.k and wishing death on him simply because the poor child's delivery had the misfortune of ending her mother's lifehuh
Jeez! Cersei's been a cold-hearted biitch from the get-go. I doubt even a lifetime with her mother (had she lived) would have watered down her deeply ingrained wickedness.


But boy! "Did I tear up badly, upon watching Tyrion's sniveling reaction, when Oberyn says, "That's not a monster; that's just a baby."

Everyone should have heard of Jon dying and coming back by now. A secret that more than two people know is no longer a secret, but information (RIP Lord Varys).

By the way, how come you didn't ask this same question when Arya spoke to Jon for the first time in the Godswood?
She asked, "How did you survive a stab wound to the heart?"

We were not shown when, where, or how Arya found out. So it's safe to assume the information is not news anymore.
I agree that every Northman, woman and child should know about it by now, but what about the Realm? Don't you think the rest of the Realm needs to be intimated about this information as well? Shouldn't ravens be sent, already, so that learned maesters at the Citadel are properly briefed ? Or is it that Jon and the Stark family are pussyfooting about the whole issue simply because there's shame in it for the Warden of the North? The shame that he failed as Lord Commander, and his own men mutinied against him just like Mormont? Of course everyone else in the Realm would want to know how he died.

Ned Stark - I never saw it coming at all, ni S1? I thought Caitlyn Stark was dreaming about the whole thing. See me saying to myself "he can't die like that, he's not dead."

Khal Drogo - My Baby. Too sad.

Oberyn Martell - No words.
Jason Momoa, the guy who played Khal Drogo, is the most underrated actor on this show.
Man got into that difficult character like he was born into it.

@first bolded

This is why Season 1 is very important.

Truly, we don't know the Mad King, but based on those stories about him.... the conversation between Robert Baratheon and Ned Stark, Robert and Jaimie, Ser Barristan Selmy, even Grand Maester Pycelle

He was a good man, such a charmer. To watch him melt away right before my eyes....consumed by dreams of fire and blood... - Grand Maester Pycelle

It's clear that they wanted us to have good knowledge of who the man was, based on stories told by those who sat with him and rebelled against him.

Maester Aemon deliberately made a decision to join the Nights Watch because he wanted to be away from the political games being played.

@Second bolded

That's why their words were important. I believe that if they really wanted to start from the very beginning, it would have swallowed their budget. So, a lot of events were put into words, to carry us along.

@Third bolded

As earlier said, their words have more meaning than we might even think.

Arya killing the Night King is a strong proof. In as much as i was pissed, shocked, annoyed, frozen etc that of all the characters, Arya was the one who killed my king. It was clearly foretold by Melisandre, but we paid little attention to those words.

"I see a darkness in you. And in that darkness, eyes staring back at me. Brown eyes, blue eyes, green eyes. Eyes sealed shut forever. We will meet again." - Melisandre (To Arya)


It's a pity that G.O.T is coming to an end, if not for anything, it personally taught me how important words are, no matter how or where or when it is said.
Words have always been supremely powerful; the problem is with the people behind them.

Hear Jon Snow : "When enough people make false promises, words stop
meaning anything . Then there are no
more answers - only better and better lies"

What's the most shocking death in GOT?
Me: Talisa stark(Rob's wife)
Without a doubt. A pregnant woman stabbed multiple times in the belly is horrific to even imagine.

The gory death of that beauty generated alot of controversies that year man. I'm guessing it's the one reason that stopped the showrunners from devising the same 'plan' for Cersei.

I believe Tyrion will try to escape, especially now that his plan on saving Jamie and Cersie didn't work.

He is the only Lannister alive, he must survive by all means.

His moment with Jamie was touching though, I felt that.
grin grin He may yet be the one to go to Pentos and start all over afterall. Which scene, would you say, got the more emotion out of Tyrion - the one we saw with Jaime in the last episode or the one with Oberyn,as the Dornish Prince tells him about how everyone, including his own sister , treated him like a monster back at Casterly Rock?

irynterri:
I said it here last week that dany will go mad and varys and tyrion will die and some guys were arguing thrash. If you really want to understand GOT don't listen to the words only, pay very close attention to their facial expressions. When cersei slept with euron and he said i will put a prince in your belly notice how cersei twitched and turned that was when i knew she would pin it on the mofo. Your points are very much on point. Let me add some: Tyrion ought to have been killed with varys but I guess the writers decided to postpone his death to E6 using the Jamie brouhaha meaning his trial and death (if he dies) will bring major events in E6. Did you also notice the look on Jon's face when he looked at Dany while drogon was killing varys. He was like dis babe mean oo, also the look on his face when dany was attacking the city despite hearing the bells. Flashback to s4 when dany watched while tormund praised snow, her face was filled with jealously and the camera guy also showed her face whenever in the background when tormund was saying "he just keeps fighting" "he never stops". E6 is going to be a fight between dany and Jon, only one or both will die, but I think only dany will die sha.
Tormund though. Crazy as you like. I wonder why no one in that hall batted an eyelid when he referenced Jon's unnatural resurrection from the dead. Everyone on the show seems to act like it's no biggie and that's a worry for me.

I support you on it being Tyrion.

Tyrion' s case is literally finished, like.....dead

Dany clearly warned him that any other "Bleep up" from him will cost him his life.... and what did he do next?

....Release the man that killed her father.

Tyrion is gone. Like...for real

His only saving grace will be if Dany - and Greyworm - dies. Any thing other than that, and House of Lannister will be closed forever.
Well, it seems as though our man is prepared for the dire consequences, as he says to Jaime just before freeing him, "Tens of thousands of innocent lives (for) one not particularly innocent dwarf ; seems like a fair trade."


That moment got me teary-eyed by the way.
TV/Movies › Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Aystarz:
Of all GOT’s main characters who survived the Siege of King’s Landing, who did you think was the biggest loser? Who lost the most?


Having a go at each other here, myself and a couple of annoying colleagues, with regards to the poser above. I strongly feel the answer is Tyrion. And my reasons are as follows ;

1) Dude went the extra mile, including risking his neck by setting Jaime free, to ensure that there was no bloodshed in KL. But as it happened, shiit turned a batty bloodbath that left thousands of burnt bodies in its wake.

2) Might get punished in the last episode for betraying Dany again.


3) Lost his siblings in the horror show.

4) Can't be said to be an excellent judge of character anymore, can he? Certainly not after failing to see Dany for whom she is.


5) Most likely doesn't feel like he has a queen in Dany anymore. Might even find himself committing regicide before the show is done (that's if he sticks around for much longer)

You have a point. He showed the same distrust and restraint when Tyrion was left in charge of affairs in Meereen,after Dany flew away with Drogon in season 5. However,his beef with Jon feels different. Seems personal. I may be wrong anyway grin
I guess we'll find out soon enough.

I will never forget his goal for United against Aston Villa in Fergies last game.

The long pass from Rooney and the one-time volley from RVP. One of my best goals ever. I think the game ended 4-4.
His headed goal at Brazil 2014 dwarfs that by a mile, my man.
TV/Movies › Re: Game Of Thrones Discussion (Beware Of Spoilers) by Aystarz: 1:20pm On May 15, 2019
mandysmum:
Nope. The distrust started way before this incident. In the scene where Dany,Jon, Tyrion and others were planning the battle strategies at Winterfell, just before leaving for Kings landing, Greyworm acted really weird. Tyrion had just said Jon and Ser Davis will go by road,with the remaining northmen, Dothraki and Unsullied. As he was speaking,Jon gathered the corresponding stones to him on the battle map. Greyworm walked to Jon and removed the stone for the Unsullied and placed it back with his Queen. Jon looked at him oddly at that moment. That was the moment I noticed a hidden beef from Greyworm.

Jon hadn't even told his sisters at this point, so Tyrion had no clue of Jon's true parentage. Missandei was also alive. So what was Greyworm's problem then?
Greyworm ehnhuh That niccur has some real issues. Torgo's silly pettiness, I believe, took root during Jon's first meeting with Dany at Dragonstone. That meeting, you'll remember, didn't end well for both parties, with Jon being a tad-bit insolent towards the Queen (even as much as figuratively calling her a child) and refusing to bend the knee in the end. As a loyal servant of Dany, one can forgive Greyworm for perceiving Jon as a pompous entitled twa.t who thinks himself a rival to the Unsullied captain's queen.
That guy's loyalty na like a zombie's. E no dey hear go come.

Can y'all just picture a scenario where the Night King won, and rode down to Kings Landing on Viserion, kills everyone and turns them to wights.

Now you question is, would Ser Gregor a.k.a The mountain be turned to a wight? he might just turn the unlikely hero by killing the NK for us all.

What's dead may never die.
Gregor wouldn't stand a chance. Does that thing even know what Valyrian steel, dragon glass or fire could do to a wight?

Sansa told other people that Jon is the true king.
varyS tried to remove Danny and put his preferred candidate on the throne
Don't pretend as if that's not what Sansa wanted as well. She told Tyrion because she trusted the Imp to spill the beans - an action she very much knew would put in motion the process of denying Dany the throne and giving it to her cousin - Jon.

Dany herself pointed this out to Tyrion at Dragonstone before sending the Unsullied to arrest the soft-spoken eunuch.

Had Sansa shut up, Varys would probably still be alive.
