To be honest, I think it's a strange move full stop to close down any of their stands after Bob Murray said he wanted them to always have at least one more seat than Newcastle. If anything they need to increase their capacity to overtake us not cut back. If he was dead he'd be turning in his grave. FTM.

for once put simply, the yanks have long been the world's biggest economy, pioneers of free trade and spend more than they produce. trump reckons it's unfair. he thinks the trade deals the americans struck led to production moving overseas and that's hindering economic growth in the us. but economic consensus suggests otherwise. foreign trade barriers don't help them, but trade imbalances are affected by a lot more than just the goods and services that are exchanged in each direction - you've also got to consider individual countries' currency value and their grwoth rates., how much businesses and households invest and save etc etc even if, as an american, you think the trade gap should be reduced, imposing tariffs hasn't been an effective way to fix the problem over the years - trade deficits can widen during trade wars. a trade war could massively affect job creation and the cost of living in the US. i'm most concerned by trump's trade move leading to the rise of global protectionism - it could have massive implications for the global economy. i'm no economist either but it seems like an incredibly high risk strategy.

As a teenager Gordon Brown used to sell programs at Starks Park in Kirkcaldy, home of Raith Rovers. Teresa May was never knowingly a teenager, she slithered out from beneath the stone fully formed....

Understand the mackems are looking at a loan next season if they go down OR stay up. More as I make it up.

Funny how we both made a £30m profit on transfers in the Championship yet things turned out a little differently for us.

What a save! Close one!

The key points from Rafa Benitez’s press conference Islam Slimani may be back for the Huddersfield clash Rafa Benitez talks about ‘progress’ of the U23s after several players are released Benitez confirms players will be off to Spain next week for a training camp ‘Give the fans something to cheer’ - Benitez tells players Lets recreate the MUFC atmosphere tomorrow urges Benitez The target is 40 points and safety says Rafa Benitez

He gets the bunting out so he can sit teary-eyed any time there's any kind of Royal event, man. He's completely in awe of anyone with unearned status or wealth because he's a fucking pleb.

Some breaking transfer news. A big blow for black cats fans as Billy the fitter said he's busy in the summer and has a family holiday already booked so won't be able to move some of the redder seats down from the empty stand to replace the pink ones. SAFC refused to comment saying they were still in negotiations with Billy hoping he'd accept four season tickets and four £100 vouchers to be spent in the club shop for the work rather than the £5,658 Billy quoted the club. More as we get it.

Going off the last election it might just suffice for him to say it has created jobs

Poor Graing. Sticks his head above the parapet for five minutes and gets a face full of elephant shit from this lunatic.

There is too much quality TV to keep up with these days. Netflix is about to invest a shitload more in original programming too so will only increase. We “cut the cord” recently and ditched sky. Got Now TV so can still watch some of their stuff on demand but so far have barely used it given how much good stuff there is on Netflix and amazon.

The Sinner. Canny creepy but very watchable so far, not least because Jessica Biel is the lead.

Save Me on Sky is class

Aye I binned TWD the season Negan(?) got involved and I just found him beyond cringeworthy. It'd been waning for seasons before that anyway. Bosch and Transparent are decent on Amazon if they're to your tastes. Probably just give each an episode and see what you think. Oh, also Catastrophe.

He was on both - I've posted over there too. He was bloody mad and an absolute gentleman.

I posted on a forum briefly with a Newcastle United legend.
