After seeing the wolves one, you could argue we had two players "offside" when Bruno hit his shot - one of whom was quite close to the keeper. Also Eddie made the point about PSG - it would be good if just once a ref had the balls to stick to the onfield decision after being sent to the review screen.

"Get in that queue and NO TRUDGING! Yes I'm talking to you with the ginger tache!"

You’re watching a different game to me mate if you can’t see the difference between Longstaff of last season and this season. His best aspect is his pace and stamina in the pressing game which he still seems to able to do. His decision making and execution this season look tired and laboured though. Howe has already said he’s carrying an injury and is playing with injections which precisely explains why this is the case but with 3 other midfielders out he has little choice. He started yesterday because as other posters have pointed out it’s better at the moment to have quality like Anderson on the bench to come on and influence the game rather than starting the game and having to then bring on a half fit player to perhaps have to change the game. FFP prevented freshening this position in January. Last season I thought he was in the best form of his career and was unlucky not to get into the England reckoning. I don’t know what else there is to say. Am not claiming he’s the greatest player I’ve ever seen. I’ve seen few first choice XI’s that also had 20+ first class players to back them up all be fit and available all season and it’s profoundly unrealistic to expect that at NUFC regardless of who our owners are. Here’s the team from the first game of the season…he wasn’t in it… Sorry if I’ve been a pedantic prick in this post. I’m utterly pig fuckin sick though of people uttering “HOO MAN LONGYS SHITE MAN!!” I was surrounded by them yesterday at the match and goons on twitter making lists of the usual suspects that their tiny Championship Manager brains are telling them we absolutely categorically have to get rid of or the club itself will spontaneously self combust on Wednesday afternoon are just as bad. It’s all just utter, utter horseshit. Does nobody just think “well, this is better than Rafa and Steve Bruce and every other fucker since SBR, it’s not perfect but on balance this is fine..”?? People are really beginning to piss me off. Sorry this isn’t really aimed at you personally but I obviously needed to get this all off my chest This season really, really hasn’t been that bad. There are very well rehearsed reasons why it’s not perhaps been a bit better. I also think Howe has undoubtedly made a few mistakes and who the fuck knows what the standard of medical advice he's received has been like. It’s like no one wants to acknowledge the good though, fuck knows what fantastically high standards they hold themselves and others to at work or at home because they expect the moon on a fuckin stick from their football club. In place of thought and reason it’s just a constant stream of instant knee jerk wankerisms . I’ve fuckin had enough…

Silva by the way. What a whingeing cunt. We scored two ‘legitimate’ goals to their none. They didn’t take their chances and we did. Absolutely agree with VAR and the need to bin it. It’s gone from its supposed purpose of eliminating howlers to getting involved in overturning highly subjective marginal calls. Perfectly illustrated by the Burn ‘foul’ being given after VAR talked the ref out of his initial correct decision.

3-1 to us.

Imagine Drury sitting at home, hunched over his laptop, actually scripting the shite he comes out with. Tragic. I bet his family hate him

A decision that seemingly wasn’t controversial enough to merit any discussion on MOTD.

Think Howe got it spot on yesterday in a weird way. He had maybe 13 players he was going to use to try to win the game. Knowing the fitness levels of Willock, Longstaff, Barnes and Anderson it made sense to start with the first two and then if it was going tits up you’ve at least got comparative quality on the bench to try to change things. Watching Longy is fuckin painful at the moment. We’ve 3 midfielders out and not coming back any time soon. I might be tempted to start Anderson v Spurs…

Btw, note it’s “our member “ as opposed to “one of our members”

JFK: "Which one's St. Peter?" St. Peter: "Me." (You know the rest).

Carragher shouting "JUST PASS MO!". It's basically like watching the Fan Zone feed with these two cunts on.

I was trying to work out the remaining fixtures in the Scottish Premier league. So apparently the league splits in two after this and there is another 5 games in those two half leagues? Scottish football is bad enough without completely fucking the league format. Why don't they just rationalise it to two leagues of 18 or something? Or just have rangers and celtic playing each other 30 times a season?

Is there anything more sad than unrequited love? 😔

Eurovision 1974 is just about to start on BBC Four, lads.

Also, wasn’t it Kinnear who tried to sign Shane Ferguson while he was out on loan from us?

Sheff Utd 2-2 Chelsea a great result for us.

Two or three years ago, I’d have killed for a season where we finish 6-8th and get to the quarters of both cups Not to mention scoring fucking boatloads of goals

"How's it going Erik?" "DO NOT INTERRUPT MY PROGRESS!"

Still love you all but just mad busy with Crypto and trading. Currently half way through my test for a funded account and ideally hoping to be trading full time later this year or early next. £3000 grand initial investment is currently at £17000 and aiming to get that to somewhere between 75k and 150k at the end of the bull run. Given the way things are *currently* going, I’m obviously putting a lot of time and effort in to make all the above a reality. Still watching all the games from behind a cushion though

Caught a bit of the madness on the radio. I love how the sweaties refer to VAR as ‘the VAR’ (said like car).

He’s like their Quiff, constantly in denial that he’s been cucked by the one he loves.

A 6-1 tonking with our first 5 goals coming in the opening 21 minutes. Harry Kane pulling one back for them before Wilson comes on as a sub and scores another. Oh hang on...

Especially as games lasting well over 95 minutes is now the norm

That’s my honourable member, I’ll have you know

not so much unrequited love, more like stalking. https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/bbc-article-inaki-and-nico-williams-two-brothers-one-club-and-a-40-year-wait.1631084/ this aupaalaves is a fucking loon, surprised the museum director/historian hasn't had some kind of restraining order put out on him. DanceoftheKnights comes up with the killer punch at the end of thread.... looking forward to aupaalaves reply!

De Bruyne with two properly class finishes, the first with his right and the second with his left. There's an endless amount of slavver about him, but he's absolutely ridiculous.

Haven’t we all got a message from an unknown number and sent back a picture of our withered member? Standard behaviour isn’t it?

I think that's a bit of a stretch. Howe and Tindall were visibly seething at one point and I"m sure Schar had a go at Hall and one or two others in the first half hour for being casual with the ball. We were just very poor. Letting them have the ball might have been part of the strategy but not being able to keep it for 5 seconds and letting them have acres of space hopefully wasn't. Different second half though, subs made a difference again. Barnes has looked absolute quality again since the latest injury, Anderson and Hall have looked good for the most part too. Not sure what's up with Willock like. Aye it was embarrassing. I'm usually of the view that it can take time for technology to become consistemt in sport and for officials to learn to use it. But this lot are utterly hopeless, they can't be trusted with VAR and they're only getting worse with time. Scrap the whole shambles this has become. The first Arsenal goal should have been looked at by VAR too, Lamptey clearly gets the ball but the ref obviously points to the stop and since its Arsenal of course VAR wont intervene.

Do we ever win when he doesn’t play? He’s like a younger version of Exile1968

😬😬😬

He was just looking to connect with some fellow pussies.

How is Leazes these days?

Because people watch the whole series even though it’s shite

Chicken dance or gtfo

lest we forget...... bless him, one of the funniest things ever and a rare moment of light relief in the ashley era. happy onward journey joe.

Just had a look, Chelsea have a horrendous run in

Drury, Carragher and Neville has to be an easy contender for worst commentary team of all time

Well allow me to immediately send you a picture of my penis, Abi.

Something, something, hang a wet duffel coat on them......
