So @Seven ... rumor has it that Portugal is buying your discards.

Roberto Martinez wants to solidify his reputation as a golden generation wrecking ball it seems.
Martinez is a very decent technical director. Within the Belgian FA he started several good projects and I think he has built some sort of foundation. Unfortunately I don't believe he's a very good manager and tactically he's very rigid so fans quickly grow frustrated.

There's something oddly soothing about watching clips of this guy while I do some work files (while called in sick from work lol):






this one is 20 years later (there's a 3rd clip too):



These videos were shot in the region where I grew up, ~100 miles as the crow flies (which is practically next door in Alaska terms)

You ever had your scrotum shaved by a Laotian boy?

Exactly. Shut up.
Hey you said you were getting a new job right? How's that going? Can you share the general industry it's in? Purely out of curiosity, and feel free to DM me if that's better

Is he reasonably well known in your area? Have you visited his cabin or that part much? If you like nature. Any time I see Alaska nature it reminds me so much of northern Sweden (I'm in central sweden), except more untouched.

    Yea, sure. I'm a Financial Manager for an online software/marketing company which primarily works in the self-storage industry. It's much more complicated than I would have initially thought. They do all of their marketing, production, software engineering and hosting in-house.

    Asking that about Alaska is like asking a house cat if it likes Ohio more than South Carolina. There is no comparison. Most areas of Alaska are measured in hours of bush flight time.

    These are two "big cities" in Alaska.

    Nah I've never been there, it's quite remote and I'm not much of an outdoorsman. I expect others have heard of him, but I hadn't until you posted and I read his Wikipedia page. Sounds like a very interesting guy. Alaska attracts people like him. Not all of them make it out alive (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_McCandless)

    Cheers brother, hope it works out for you.

    Yeah the "big" cities are Anchorage (population 288K) and Fairbanks and Juneau (~32K each). Probably a bit more if you count the people out in the hills in the surrounding areas.

    Yeah I know Alaska is huge and barely populated Burke lol. Just gauging how famous or close that ingenious hermit was.


    Also that wiki clip is kinda why I am somewhat fascinated by Alaskas nature. Because I liked the film they based on his life, into the wild. Emile Hirsch was fantastic in that role. Weirdly havent seen him act since that movie.


    And yeah he clearly was unprepared for and underestimated the Alaskan wilderness.
