Re: Holidays

I'm off to Perth next month to visit a mate - only there for 12 nights so not travelling to the East Coast but will explore plenty in and around Perth.

Re: Transfer Rumours/Wishlist

Pulisic is a big no for me. Yes he’s got talent but very patchy - is he even an out and out winger or a CAM (which doesn’t fit how we play). He’s done well at Milan but other than one quite good season at Chelsea did very little (and from memory had injury issues) in the PL. Apparently on 150k a wee...

I'm sure the millions they will earn from signing fees alone would help soften the blow of 2 quick transfers. 😅
Oh yeah financially it is a complete dream - just like being a PL manager and getting fired <laugh>

Re: Transfer Rumours/Wishlist

Yep - unfortunately it's good business (which is a shame, as it could really **** a players career). Liverpool have done it quite well over the last few years, it's something we need to do more to get around PSR. Tosin I think could have become a first team player tbf - he's more or less coming into...

Re: Run In

I honestly think we either get an early goal and cruise to a 3-0, or otherwise it’s a nervy 1-0 or 2-1.

If Joelinton wasn’t being prepared for a match why would he have been having pain killing injections in his knee - maybe he plays. The stakes are worth the risk.

Re: Run In

I think we'll get an early goal and it'll settle everyone - Everton still don't score that many generally. You get the feeling they'll have been very emotionally invested on Sunday's game being the last game they'll ever play at Goodison and essentially they'll be in holiday mode now.

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Gooners

Gordon has definitely struggled - tho I did think when he came on v Brighton (I think it was that game) he looked much more threatening and was probably his best display since he came back from injury / suspension. He’s definitely fallen away from the form he showed last season (he’s pretty much exa...

You have to go back to February 1st for the last time we failed to win at home in the league. Might have won today with a fit Isak and Raya not making some great saves.

There’s added jeopardy next weekend but I’d say the omens are pretty good.
Exactly.

Re: Run In

Give your heads a wobble fellas! We’ve won 6 (?) home games on the bounce. Yeah the away form is patchy but at home we’ve been very reliable. We spanked palace 5-0 not long ago when that was seen as a tough game potentially, we beat Brentford who at the time weren’t far away, pissed over Man U, beat...

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Gooners

For all the chat of trying to finish runners up, if it stays like this we’ve gone to all of the big teams at the top end of the table and lost. Liverpool, Arsenal, Man City, Chelsea, Villa…they’re likely to be the CL competition next season so we’ve still got a psychological hurdle to overcome in th...

Great strike.

We all expected to need to beat Everton at home so no need for fans to lose their heads. Its still a great opportunity.
