I definitely think this season is a step down from season 1, but that was probably to be expected. Still enjoying it a lot.

100% Rupert said something to Nate about how he should be coaching
Or he's buying another club and wants him to come coach. Also makes sense with him giving up his shares
Rich man in episode 11 works for their old sponsor/old oil company and is out for revenge. Team in Africa is either a big lie or run by the oil company. He's also working with Rupert to take down Richmond so he can buy the team and make them sponsors again. Using Nate to fuel the fire, but Nate is an idiot swallowed by his own ego to notice.
I told my wife similar in regards to going after Sam for revenge.Carlo4 said:Conspiracy timeAverage Joe said:redline248 said:

In the world of television I could see that happening. However, I would think he would be high profile enough (considering they knew who his father was) that they would know he owns certain companies.
I also hope that doesn't happen to Sam because he's such a great character. He's already hurt by his lack of relationship. No need to kick the dude while he's down.

A few things would go against this being very likely.
- It was Sams Dad that was onto the ties of the previous company and he knows about this deal Sam was talking to him by phone before and after meeting with the billionaire dude. I would expect his Dad to know who the guy is and the company.
- The billionaire dude specifically says ones of the reason he wants Sam is he wants the man who inspired millions back home with his previous stance against that company.
Given those things it seems unlikely but as someone above said int he world of TV plots sure - could be some nefarious behind the scenes twist or ruse at a higher level.
Im fully expecting season 2 to end lie season 1.....I hope Im wrong and we get mucho mucho joy.
Jamie Tartt winning and beaking our hearts with relegation in season one....
I fully expect Nate and Rupert to break our hearts and keep us down...cause problems

I think it will be opposite or season 1, team wins and gets promoted but chaos caused by the Nate and Rupert
We are the Aggies, The Aggies are We
That's what I'm thinking too. Having to compete at a higher level in the PL while all the shenanigans are taking place behind the scene is good drama.
IS IT FRIDAY YET!?!!? I can't wait for the episode.
Just start from the beginning of the season and you can watch straight through...chiken said:

Oh hello you patient binger-types. If you're waiting for all of @TedLasso Season 2 to be available before you'll watch it- well you can start now. But the time you finish the first 11 eps, the season finale will be waiting for you. That's just math. #math

Torn between this and depression that there's no new episodes after this
Unfollowing. Catch y'all later this weekend.
My wife picked ours up today. Can't wait to indulge while watching. Thanks for this!
I would say that pretty much went the way we all expected it. Now for bets on next season; I bet Richmond gets 6 points off of West Ham.
Amazing ending
Couldn't have been better

The masculine melancholy Renaissance painting was freaking hilarious.
Was waiting for Nate to spit on the camera at the end.
I loved this episode. What a season!
Our season comes to an end tomorrow. If this was all just a dream, I hope I at least wake up in bed next to Bob Newhart.

There were two ways Nate could have gone. I was aware of that. However, I didn't expect him to choose hate.
And they're over-doing the symbolism with the white hair.
And Roy and Jaime have made mountains of growth on their own journeys and it's so beautiful to watch. LOVE!

Setting up a unique "good vs evil" storyline in season 3, these writers are ballsy.

I'm not sure Akufo is as honorable as he suggests he is. He says he doesn't believe in billionaires but drops piles of $$$$ on a fancy helicopter entrance, buying out museums and filling them with actors, creating new restaurants out of thin air. Seems like he might not be completely up front with Sam
I was wrong, the man is nothing but poise and humility
Awesome idea...missed opportunitybthotugigem05 said:

What a great finale so many fantastic scenes. Nate really went too far ripping the sign. It's going to be tough to redeem him next season
Beard - "I'll headbutt you"
Trent Crimm, Independent. - I was cracking up
Dani seeing the tiny greyhound in the tiny helmet "Futbol is life"

His assistant's handshake was the second hardest I laughed in the episode, although that entire reaction scene was absolutely hysterical.FightinTexasAg15 said:FightinTexasAg15 said:

Beard sincerely saying "I'll headbutt you." was hilarious too.
I won't post it because it contains spoilers, but there is tweet from Nick Mohammed with his take take on Nate's journey. I can't figure out how to post a link without the tweet appearing.
Definitely Roy not giving a crap about Nate kissing his wife is a big insult to Nate.

I think only bc we hear that word used ad nauseum IRL, in the media, on social, etc.powerbelly said:
Here is a link to the image.
The microaggression part is a bit much.
But ultimately, its true. the little things that seem innocuous, but are hammering at someone's psyche. Especially when they are coming from the people he thinks are in his corner. while messed up, its a feeling of betrayal. and i think the show did a great job of making you feel conflicted about it. you want nate to be on the receiving end of a roy kent headbutt, but you also really feel bad for the guy and want to give him a hug.
Beautiful gif lol
Wow. We all pretty much nailed the major storyline endings for the season. Although I guess I didn't anticipate Nate leaning that hard into the dark side. Love some of the setups we have for conflict in the third. **** West Ham.
Roy getting Diamond-dogged was incredible as was Beard and Ted reacting to it.
So many incredible pictures of friendship packed into this show, btw. Scrubs had several, but really every character has at least one close or blossoming friendship that serves to build them up. (Nate being the one obvious exception.)

Good explanation. What did Nate say about the picture he gave to Ted in the episode? I missed it.
Also, it's pretty interesting to think about Ted's struggles with mental health taking place alongside Nate's through the course of the season. Both had access to the exact same set of people/resources, but one was renewed and the other deteriorated.

He said he gave him a photo and he doesn't even bother to display it in his office.
(apparently he has it at home next to a photo of his son, but Nate doesn't know that)

Ah, yeah. Thanks.

on one hand, I think it shows it also takes how one views those resources and the role they take/are perceived to take in that persons life. in the case of nate, he clearly needed constant coddling and affirmation, which is in part due to his need to live up to his dad's approval. having the feeling of never being good enough, then to be given a taste of it, only to have the person most responsible for that affirmation then turn their back on him (again, all in his mind, right?), would leave one pretty ****ing lost, and chasing that affirmation high from elsewhere.jeffk said:
