Bloody ell I've forgotten how cheap the beer is in Budapest!
More context. Less than £2 a pint and 65p a can. Hungarian wine not too bad either
Soak up that local culture <cheers>

Google most websites on footballers supposed salaries and it’s the answer that comes out.
That's f***ing ridiculous if that's true. Jesus.
I think he was on decent money at Villa and when we signed him he got a pay rise.

Re: Transfer Rumours/Wishlist

On Targett, well as he did when we initially signed him….£100k a week!! Jesus wept. Even if he’s sold, nobody is paying that wage so we either sell on the cheap or we have to subsidise his wages as he won’t take a pay cut (and why should he, he get given a contract). I don’t mind if he stays tbh, i...

Re: Fouls and Yellow cards

Depends on the the challenge for me. Pisses me off when a blatant yellow isn’t given because “it’s early in the game”. Doesn’t matter if it’s the first minute or the last minute, if it’s a yellow card worthy foul then give the booking. What I don’t like is petty yellow’s early on for a tiny shirt pu...

I've test driven this 50 malarkey for almost a month and not fricking impressed. Is there a return policy?
There’s no return, but you can opt for death at your age <roll>

Re: Transfer Rumours/Wishlist

I don't think he will go tbh, believe he just bought a house in North East. But who knows money talks. As above says we have Tonali to come back and have scouted a few players who we could target Taylor, Ederson, Koopenmeiners etc I don’t pay much attention to the “he bought a house” argument. When...

Looking like it could be pretty decent weather too!
Sounds great!

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Palace

Also a f***ing shambles of a week for my FPL Utter disaster. Was one of those freak game weeks with huge variations in scores. Quite a few people in my league went double Everton defence and got jammy af with clean sheets in both games, and the two behind be had Ben white who scored twice which nob...

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Palace

Not seen it but online commentary says minimal contact. Tbh I’m not a fan of players throwing themselves to the ground at the faintest of contact (not saying that’s what this was, just in general).

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...

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Palace

wtf is actually wrong with trippier? Apparently he was close a few weeks back and even arrived with the squad in full tracksuit before one match, but he still can’t even make the bench.

Too many fans judge too many players by the look of their haircut.

Re: Football Titbits

Just shows how much we all buy into the way some is presented online, or even judge their entire character by how the behave for 90 mins on a football pitch. I’m pretty sure all of us and the vast majority of Newcastle fans thought that he had some talent, but was a bit of a t***. Proved us wrong on...
