Re: The Match Tickets Thread

Sold out on 50 odd points so I was nowhere near.

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Blades

There are points in games where Bruno will play a pass straight out for a throw in and get a "Bruno!", while Longstaff will fail to control a misplaced pass and get booed. Bruno is obviously a brilliant player but the double standards on basic stuff is ridiculous, the last thing he needs is a pre ma...

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Blades

Possibly one of the least deserved 5-1 wins of all time, genuinely fortunate that Sheff Utd are as s*** as they are. Bruno milked the crowd as standard but had a poor game generally, giving the ball away repeatedly and trying to force things that just weren't there instead of having some patience ag...

Re: Dan Ashworth confirmed as gardening director

Can we send him to Wigan like Charles N'Zogbia?

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Palace

On the plus side at least we didn't ship 5 like West Ham. The away form has been poor all season, how we finish will likely come down to the next 3 (two at home and Burnley away), because I don't fancy us going to Old Trafford needing something.

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Palace

Longstaff's in, Hughes is beaten and pulls across him with his arm. You can talk about contact all you like with attempted tackles, but he's clearly impeded him in the area, it's a clear penalty.

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Palace

One thing that's clear from this season is the likes of Murphy, Krafth, Longstaff, Lascelles, Dubravka need to be giving us 110% just to keep up with the players around them. When they are off it, it's become so noticeable. Think it could take 3-4 more windows to really address the squad quality as...

I've brought Harry Maguire into my draft team simply for their upcoming fixtures, so 0-0 would be fine. Or a 4-3 loss where he gets a hat trick.
Hat trick is on.

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Palace

Barnes needs to stop trying the little cute things and just have a strike. He's brilliant and doing good things, but he'd be far more productive.

Re: Football Titbits

Let's not forget he's only just 23 too, so he's showing great maturity for that age even if he may have been a t*** previously.

Re: Transfer Rumours/Wishlist

I've said it before but Joelinton is the more irreplaceable, there really aren't many midfielders like him. Bruno is brilliant but his attributes are already covered to an extent by Tonali, and of course you'd hope we sign a replacement should he go.

Fingers crossed he stays of course.

Re: Midweek football - 23/25 April 2024

I don't want to be that guy, but I hope you have a horrible evening. My uncle is from Bingley so while I'd never go to the extent of saying I have a second team, I've been to Valley Parade a fair few times and they're in unusually good form.
