Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Spurs
Howe has definitely deserved criticism at times this season, and at others deserves a huge pat on the back. Today is definitely the latter

Re: Matchday thread - Toon v Spurs
One of the performances of the season. The entire team played well, nobody had a bad game. Burn is like a different player at centre back, Krafth was solid, Longstaff tidy, Anderson looks so good, obviously Gordon and Isak class. Hats off to Howe, limited resources but set us up perfectly in a way t...

Re: Weekend football - 13/15 April 2024
If it helps I got back from Tunisia last night <laugh> going to be strange being sat at lunch time without a beer and looking at the rain. The match is my only highlight haha What's Tunisia like? I went years ago, around 2003 I think. Fine when you’re lounging around the hotel but bloody awful as s...

Re: Football Titbits
Put far more eloquently than me. https://twitter.com/WeAreTheFSA/status/1778740237700620733?t=EltZ1m2RBVz8gTj02GX1XA&s=19 Yep, the first line nails it. Money going into football is like water entering a sieve. But unless there’s a UEFA wide agreement on the major issues such as salaries then nothin...

Re: Football Titbits
Ticket revenue is dwarfed by television revenue, most PL sides have absolutely no need to increase prices. The extra revenue makes marginal (if any) difference to them, but can make a huge difference to your average match going fan. There’s no doubt that a lot of fans are priced out of football now....

Re: Football Titbits
Whatever the reasoning behind it, it seems completely scattergun as to what might happen to you if found guilty. What are the criteria for a 2 point deduction? What are the criteria for a 10 point deduction? Surely this must have been decided when the laws were agreed? It can’t be subjective, or can...

Re: Football Titbits
So how much was their breach to only get a 2 point deduction?
If you can be say, £50m over and only get a 2 points deduction it’s absolutely worth doing! That’s a decent player who could in theory earn you more than 2 extra points a season…

Re: Joelinton set to sign new deal
Great move, the one thing I'll say about Ashworth was he appeared to be a stickler when it came to contracts Wage limits, twice the board had to intervene with new contracts. Tbh not sure if it's a good thing or a bad thing but delighted Jo has signed a new deal I’d say when it’s for someone absolu...

Re: Yankuba Minteh
As far as I'm aware, he plays off the right. From what I've read (none of the credible outfits, pinch of salt) the plan is to loan him out again, to a 'higher' standard of league. Bundesliga, apparently. Which would make sense, and offer clear progression if he goes to a lower level team, where he ...

Re: Yankuba Minteh
Scored twice and got an assist against Ajax today <notbad> Hugely impressive season…does he get a chance here next season or loaned out? What’s his actual position? If he plays off the right then there’s definitely a route into the first team for him next season. On the left no, as Gordon and Barne...

Re: The Managerial Merry-Go-Round Thread
Shame, wasn’t that old really - similar age to my stepdad.
Obviously terrible for us, but not his fault he was given the job.

Re: Weekend football - 6/7 April 2024
Outside the top 3, the PL really isn’t particularly good this season. The fact that we’re only 2 points from 6th place after everything this season is pretty laughable! I mean good for us, but shows an absolute lack of quality.
