I assume that, as a man of impeccable principles, Ralf will be withdrawing Adams, Walker-Peters, Salisu, Smallbone, McCarthy and Livramento from his matchday squad as they were all unavailable for the original fixture.9 points

She was quite ill on Saturday (classic symptoms), but is on the mend now. She's out and about potentially infecting neighbours by posting thank you cards (I can't stop her). I actually forgot to say, on Saturday morning she had all the symptoms, my brother had just tested positive, yet she claimed she was negative on LFT. Unconvinced, I did another LFT with her, and lo and behold, it was positive. Turned out she was taking the swab straight out the sterile package and putting it in the solvent, bypassing any actual sampling. As if it worked by telepathy. I mean, I want to say she isn't stupid, but fuck me.7 points

Much as we slated him for it, Clark getting sent off in that match is the best thing he's done for this club6 points

On the other hand, ONS survey data today shows 97% of the population have antibodies now. So it looks like "herd immunity" has happened, just that herd immunity doesn't work because you can get this several times! The death rate is also impossible to contextualise now, with prevalence so high. Around the new year, around 40% of the deaths recorded the deaths were likely incidental to covid (i.e. not caused bu it), it might well be higher now. Anecdotally though, a lot of my elderly family (70s, 80s) contracted it last week but none are yet seriously ill. IF we don't get a variant which has a more lethal phenotype (which is the most likely possibility imo, but by no means certain), we are now effectively out of this. On the other hand, we're all getting nuked anyway, so you know, swings and roundabouts.6 points

Mothers, man....... before I left home wor lass would usually stay over on a weekend as we were saving for a place of our own. One day my dad let on that she'd had a word with him saying she wasn't stupid, , she knew we'd be discreetly 'doing it' but I could at least get rid of 'them condom thingys'. My father had a look as to what she was talking about and it was fucking ear defenders from work, they were blueish, transparent and white cotton bud or something inside.....AND WERE OBVIOUSLY SMALL. Obviously the old man knew straight away what they actually we're, laughed and told not to be daft then explained to my mam her error in judgement. I was going to take the piss but I didn't want my shagging becoming a subject around my folks living room so pretended I never knew her error. (She's Irish so, y'knaa.....)5 points

“They are our 12th man. I love this city, I love the club and the passion they have for it. They fight for it so I want to fight for it.” The club is transformed from the one that he signed for. Ashley is gone, replaced by a consortium who have made no bones about their ambition. “Newcastle is a massive club and now it’s coming back,” he says. “We all know the owners’ ambitions. They want to be big – the biggest club in the world – and when you listen to them you think it can be. “Now everyone in the world is talking about Newcastle and what it can be. In Brazil they know it now and I’m happy to be here and I hope to stay for many years here to be part of it.” In the short-term the aim is “to keep improving, day by day”. But the long-term? “To help Newcastle win titles and do great things. I’m happy here, very pleased for the fans. “I love the city, my life is good and I hope to stay here for many years.”5 points

Looking at his seating plans, it'll be fucking difficult for anyone to smuggle in an icepick with a 20ft handle !!!5 points

Would gladly take a point but I have a horrific premonition of Fraudy Ralph, in his wank driving gloves, fist pumping away and talking about justice through a veil of tears in his post-match interview.5 points

Unfortunately it won't be applied until the end of the season. It could mean they're relegated and start the Championship with a points deduction.4 points

Arenas are shit, especially Newcastle's, but still plenty of good smaller venues in the city. City hall, O2 academy, Sage, Cluny, Live theatre, Boiler shop, the universities. My favourite venue of all time is the 100 club in London however. Much rather see a less famous band in an intimate venue than a load of has beens on a huge LCD monitor on a stage 200 metres away.3 points

Arena gigs are all shite, but you can always get something out of seeing live music at a small venue. Even if its Sporty3 points

As someone pointed out a while back when Hasenhüttl was whinging about it previously, maybe we should be allowed to play against them using the team we would have had if the PL hadn’t blocked the takeover for 18 months.3 points

I saw a clip of Neville saying Newcastle United, villa, Everton etc were all big clubs and should be competing in a normal world and some Scouse mackem pipsqueak voiced cunt started blethering shite to which Neville then went further as he was obviously irritated by him and said NUFC were bigger than Everton when he was playing to be interrupted again by a high pitched screech of 'NEVER!' that would've had every dog around for ten miles wincing like fuck. For his sake, I hope they go down the same road their bezzies on Wearside did. Suck it up, helium voice.3 points

I would’ve thought that regardless of being on garden leave, he’ll be working on NUFC business and on the phone all day. They might have somebody checking that he stays in the area but they’re not MI6.3 points

Of course xG is a useful tool to analyse football games in depth if you are in a professional capacity. I am a huge football nerd, watching far too many games from stupid countries and stupid levels. I do like looking at tactics and also at stats of players and teams. But I can’t get my head around people getting excited by xG and using it to get pleasure out of it. I don’t know how this post will affect my xB though2 points

Mine was UFO at the City Hall in 1982, me and my mate went because his older sister had bought tickets but couldn’t go. All I remember is about halfway through, surrounded by sweaty, hairy blokes, looking at the stage and thinking “ This is fucking shite”. My next proper gig was AC/DC at Whitley Ice Rink, which was fucking mint.2 points

I think he probably resigned in January and stayed on with Brighton until the end of the window at which point he was placed on garden leave so I assume his notice period began in January. His notice period could be anything up to 12 months. Whether it is enforceable or not is up to whether it can be deemed reasonable. It could well be an industry standard period of time. It won't be costing Brighton an awful lot just to keep him on garden leave and at the same time an offer of a couple of million is unlikely to convince Brighton to release him from it. Ashworth could of course just decide to break the contract but that could end up messy if Brighton decide to take him to court. Basically I've absolutely no idea what's going to happen.2 points

Does XG stand for Expect Gemmill, usually followed by 'talk shite about football now he's interested again'? (Only joking, I've never seen you put tarquisestra or whatever rhubarb it was?)2 points
