Would you be willing to miss out on Kid Dynamite this season if it meant we could land Guehi?

Worked there, weekend job, when I was 16. Menswear dept, are you being served had nowt on Parrish’s. Old Mr. (Harry) Foster, could sell a suit of armour as a swimming aid that bloke, suit arms too long “they’ll ride up with wear sir”. He was amazing. Customer in front of mirror checking the fit and Harry with a handful of the back of the suit jacket in his hand to make it look ok at front, whilst brushing the shoulders, turn customer round and repeat with the front grabbed. Fucking master he was, the number of happy customers who left with suits that fit like shit was legion.

Set up another meeting, look Parrishs dead in the eye and say, 'Although I admired your art deco department store on Shields Road, the Harrods of the East End in the days of my youth, I have to tell you ......"

I’d take the bid back down to our second offer and say take it or we’ll get the cunt for half price next summer.

HELMET!

Luckily CT took this pic and sent me it via PM after he was doing his peeping Tom act outside your window.

8 months for the looting. 4 years for the shirt

Our recruitment is a shambles like. We should employ their old mucker, Stewart Donald to help us out, drive a hard bargain, like he did for Griggs. Probably get Guehi at a snip for £210 million.

Aye, a department for everything. Leather goods was upstairs, the counter I worked faced the doors/stairs, remember once looking up to see a whole rail of leather jackets disappearing down the stairs at pace 😂

Parish needs an invite to the embassy.

How would you say you lads do with sarcasm?

Of course it is.

I blame you @Christmas Tree for this Mumsnet stuff, btw. @Gemmillwill posting photos of what pinny he wore to make it next. It's a dark road ahead.....

Labour should ban politicians having second jobs in the media, especially the news media. I mean it should happen anyway, but to get rid of this cunt is a bonus. He'll also have to admit he has dumped his loyal subjects in Clacton because of the money.

The number of breaks Fulham had that didn't end in a chance was nobody's business. They couldn't fashion an opening even when they had men over, the stupid twats. Gordon and Isak won't make those mistakes.

Too fucking late. 🙂

@toonotl

Speaks volumes that Trippier and Almiron don't get any minutes today. I suspect those 2 and Dubravka are the 3 players (other than Hayden/Fraser) that we try to move on next week

It's. Fucking. MBEUMO. M-B-E-U-M-O You. Thick. Cunts. Also for the last fucking time. He's 5 foot 7. Eddie Howe is not going to sign him. Get his name out of your fucking mouths.

Latest from over two hours of sky sports soccer Saturday, Newcastle United don't exist. Aren't tipped for the top 4, aren't tipped to be a surprise package and aren't tipped to be either relegated or be a underachiever. Back to the studio. *That'll teach me for watching it.

This is @Gemmill and Everton all over again.

You're correct in the main, I've got mates from Sunderland who have been amazing friends and similarly acquaintances who have been utter, utter bell ends. There are some differences though imo. Geordies tend to be excessively proud, boistrous, loud, optimistic people. Certainly when it comes to football. In the main we are only focussed on our team. Mackems tend to be miserablist pessimists, for good reason maybe. But many are undoubtedly obsessed with Newcastle more than their own team as a result and, imo completely unlike us, have a massive chip on their shoulders about it. Not just the club, the city, the people, our reputation, the industry, local governance, guitarists from Blyth and North Shields, literally everything. We do not go on like that. Their motto is about us - FTM. They use it everywhere. Our "motto" about them actually just relects their obsession. You also don't see it much. SMB. Other than that, as alluded to earlier, Newcastle is medieval destination tourist city. It's the endless subject of travelogues. Sunderland isn't and never will be. But many of them can't accept that.

Tell me your a pseudo intellectual Sunderland fan without telling me you're pseudo intellectual Sunderland fan. 4/10 must try harder.

https://sunderlandglobalmedia.org/when-did-the-sunderland-newcastle-rivalry-become-so-bitter-were-things-less-tense-in-the-past/ Too much in this just to highlight the one thing. The conclusion in particular though is quite something

I've listened to work related health and safety videos that had me more enthused than listening to Michael 'tremendous by the way' Owen.

Michael Owen's cameos will be like listening to the desk sergeant check you in at the local police station.

Nice little tie in with Chelsea where Palace are the “club of choice” for a fair few of the apparently limitless supply of CFC squad players who go out on loan to half a dozen clubs, never make it to the first XI and are then sold. Thats been going on long before Boely turned up too . Needless to say Chelsea’s cut has been an issue here, 20%? 😒

I wouldn’t be against Chalobah as a cheaper option for now and then source Schar’s long term replacement a bit further down the line tbh

"What's up guys? Wewlcome to my channewl and my EXCLUSIVE news that The Cwonicle thwu Lee Wyder are weporting that a fourth bid has went in for Guehi! I'm cuwwently sitting in a twain as I wecord this, click on the link below for my deep dive weview of vis LNER twain and five burning questions about how you should act on a twain without pawental assistance."

Doesn’t really roll off the tongue though, does it? Whereas, Northborough…

We don't need centre halfs man, we're absolutely stacked in that area.

This thread is already stale, but at yeast we're getting some puns out of it.

I bet that site is just one person who is a frustrated journalist (and frustrated MLF)

He played for Ipswich didn't he? US TV going against the reds of Manchester or Liverpool?

We won’t touch him, notorious drink problem (and he’s dead).

My Byker granny broke her hip in Beavans, their fault and she was in hospital for a couple of months. If it was today they'd have had to pay a fortune but back then they left it at phoning an ambulance for her and that was as far as they went.

Tomori is one im genuinely surprised we havent been linked with all that much.

I used to drink in a clurb in Walker, long shut, that had about three blokes who looked just like him that would get in. If they weren't handing out the domino cards they were handing out the roast tatties and sausages on a Sunday afternoon. They'd have a wife and kids but you never saw them or their families anywhere outside of the club, walking around the area/shops etc. Ever.

I think there's a chance this goes through at the end of the window, if we don't look elsewhere before then. Palace will never get more money for him and he's definitely gonna leave at the end of his contract, so there's a lot of incentive for them to sell now, despite Parish's grandstanding.

didn't they give us about £5m compensation for the king? im sure parish thinks he's being a clever cunt fucking about with this transfer, bollocks to him though he can keep his fucking over valued defender we'll always have had the best laugh.

They regularly roll over and go with whatever restrictions the red clubs want to put in place too. Proper lickspittles who see just being in the PL as the height of achievement

Oh, looks like I've got him on the bench. Terrific.
