  1. Al fucking Khalood? He’s probably going to be a very rich man but at his age it seems a poor move for a footballer. Suppose he gets to play against some players who were once at the top of the game at least Anyway we’ve hardly forced him out, should we just keep players around forever if they are surplus to requirements? I don’t understand that sentiment at all; yes he’s been here a long time but been paid all that time Edit - just watched the interview and that was quite an uncomfortable watch I’m not sure that was needed at all unless he requested it
  2. I think it was a blatant red at any speed, he’s gone in to do him not win the ball. The fact he’s tried to pull out is irrelevant as he still raked him down the calf. Stupid from the lad
  3. Ok I’ve decided Mori is my favourite and needs protecting at all costs!
  4. I remember one time the maestro, Tugay got one of the most ridiculous red cards you could wish for, a stupid tackle followed by the most pointless of handballs, he got a standing ovation and I was livid. Think it was against Boro and we ended up losing 3 or 4 nil
  5. Went to look up this Rio lad and I think someone has been editing the wiki!
  6. I wanted to see Yuki greeting him not Rudy! 😛
  7. They’ve scored 3 great goals to be fair, far from their best and showing fragility at the back but getting the job done
  8. They may not get it 2-3! This fixture tends to deliver
  9. They’ll have loads of games where they won’t be great or even good but still win, it’s an annoying trait Burnley had last season as well Having said that 2-2, even if they win it’s 2 league games giving up leads too easily
  10. Red card probably ruined the game, stupid tackle from Gordon and a deserved red. Shows how VAR and countless replays can change a view though Sutton on commentary said it wasn’t much of a foul, then he said definitely just a yellow card, then he decided a red was probably coming and then it was definitely a red!
  11. Decent opening to the match between Newcastle and Liverpool, quite fiery. I really don’t like Liverpool but I like that their players have brought back long sleeves
  12. Have we got a new prop for the signings or have they all had the retro ball? Minor note I’m glad we aren’t trying to be funny with announcement videos, keep it simple and classy. Looks a player this one from what we’ve seen
  13. I can’t see anything we’ve done wrong in terms of Buckley, he’s had plenty of chances but never consistently showed enough, in his short spell at Wednesday he didn’t do much either. Best for all that he moves on
  14. ‘More Shit’ signings? I’d be quite excited about this one though
  15. Just catching up properly on my last day before leaving the Florida sunshine, that’s a stonking win. Really pleased to see Hedges silence the critics (me) this week, I hope he keeps proving us wrong! Feels like getting that first win is a huge monkey off our back
  16. I still think Gueye will leave this week, problem is even if you don’t rate him we need to replace AND bring more competition in
  17. Fair enough I don’t think there’s many we’ve had an option on but not taken up though
  18. Siggurdson which wasn’t all that long ago and then we loaned Ribero before signing permanently
  19. Congrats Tom you also ‘made it out’ Must be grand plying your trade at the famous ‘without club’
  20. Videos of the chants are on social media and were getting some attention, no issue with the club calling it out personally.
  21. He clearly is the player with the dodgy hair transplant then looking at that photo
  22. I think the book is a nice idea but given the amount of AI used in recent comms they could do with sharing more about the content
  23. To be fair I think we see similar stand offs quite often, Isak is out of the Newcastle team at the moment for similar but rarely it’s because the club is as tight as we are
  24. I severely doubt it’s true to be honest but o think (as a HR guy) that we’d be covered legally
  25. It would be legal as potentially gross misconduct if he has refused to play. But let’s be honest it’s about the most idiotic move you could make if you want the best money out of a deal, which makes it possible.
