Twitter being a fucking hellscape isn't news, but the weird reaction to the reaction of Almiron's transfer is fucking awful. People rightly, imo, wishing him well and looking back on his time fondly. Straight away you've got edgelord cunts calling him shit and being delighted to see the back of him. The lad worked his bollocks off every time he pulled on the shirt, he never complained (to my knowledge), always played with a smile on his face. It's not like he's been sat on his arse, picking up a massive wage while acting the cunt. Don't understand the opprobrium.

Well yiknaz it was sailors from sunlin who started Santos, we borrid them ooer shirts. They only play in black n white coz it was black n white tellys then and thu missundistud. FTM. Marras

My sister and her husband, lets call him Neil do that. Never forget sitting with them at a Christmas meal and Neil is a bit shy and quiet. So to put him at ease I ask him about LARPing and he tells me that his character is a Wolfman and is the leader of his clan. I ask if that's like a werewolf and he looks aghast "A werewolf?! They can only change in a full moon, I can change whenever I want!" Looked at my Dad for help and he just kind shrugged sadly and refilled our glasses.

"IT'S A FUCKING MAG-A-THON WITH LEWK EDWARDS AND DAWN THEWLIS THE FUCKING MAG BIIIITCH! FUCK YOU, LEWK NORTH! FUCK YOU! EFFFFFF TEEEEEEEE FUCKING EMMMMMMM!!!!"

Precedent nicely set from PGMOL. Anyone who doesn’t like a decision, simply gather en masse and send death threats to the referees and get it overturned

Did you all play twister afterwards? Narrator: "And so after his origin story The Fishman did battle with his arch enemy, Wolfman. The opprobrium was writ large on the face of the senior Fishes as they wondered how it has come to this? Farken." Wolfman: "Ow! Dave you stood on my hand!" Fish: "One could argue, Neil, that your hand slipped under my foot if I were being obtuse, certainly the Xf to Xh ratio would suggest either is as likely as the other."

Can't agree Alex, the papers and sky said he wasn't very good and lost the mind games in the one season he was in charge of us when his shitness got found out by the greatest manager to have lived at the greatest club in the world (and definitely the biggest), who beat him with his very own kids. They hunted him down and everybody lived happily ever after and the next generation of pundits for twenty years plus were formed. Amen. #SkyChildren

Lots of water under the bridge and KK and Ashley were never going to see eye to eye. But the tactical astuteness of KK is quite underrated imo. Especially by the time his second spell at the club came around. People also forget in terms of his ‘naivety’ that NUFC was his first job in management. I know we get it on here but a lot of people just go off cliches. Re: his second spell here, in that first part season the Owen thing was more than just man-management. The media had made a big deal of Owen’s criticism of KK in the former’s autobiography* and KK making Owen captain was a great hit of psychology. But getting Owen to play deeper, in a sort of old fashioned inside right position, with Viduka as the target man and Martins terrifying defenders with his pace wide left was really effective. And no fucker was playing a proper 4-3-3 in the premier league then. Don’t give me Mourinho with his 4-5-1. *Tbf Owen wouldn’t even have read it, let alone written it. The little cunt

Thought this would be a good place to rank my favourite pies* * I omitted hairy pie from the list, for reasons of decency and because I am on a last warning.

I agree. And it's a massive benefit of Murphy's outstanding recent form. The recruitment net can be broadened to consider a youngster to develop and compete for Murphy's spot rather than an established replacement. Murphy has been nothing short of outstanding and one of our best players amongst some stellar performers in recent weeks. Perhaps it's wishful thinking but I think Murph's form is more sustainable than the likes of Miggy in his purple patch because his game is built on simpler principles. Most of the time he is looking to receive the ball and play it quickly to Isak. They have a wonderful understanding between them too which helps both of them. He seems like a very intelligent and very humble player. It seems evident in the sense of a humility to appreciate what works and to do it without any superfluous fluff.

Sell him in January and re-sign him in July for half the money after the Everton fans hound him out.

I saw Ian Wright condemned the abuse Oliver was getting this morning despite being the kind of fuckwit that encouraged it in the first place. Screaming at the top of his lungs, exaggerating massively about a decision that went against them IN A GAME THEY WON, it’s all stoked and encouraged by pundits like him

Murphy is one of the cleanest strikers of the ball we have and he's pretty good with his left foot. Needs a bit of time to get the shot off though, the kind of time being Jacob Murphy can sometimes allow. Same principle applies to his passing. He used to be a lot worse IMO because he would commit to dribbling and have his head down, beat his man then run into a blind alley and eventually turn it over. He's got rid of it from his game for the most part making much better decisions about when to pass or dribble. He can still sometimes get caught on the ball or make a poor decision but he has greatly improved his onfield vision, knowing where our players are and also where the goal is (rather than the post). Currently deserving of a starting spot but would be best suited to being an impact sub coming on when the game is a little more open. I've never found him to be a good player defensively despite him covering a lot of ground. I love to see him do well as he's clearly a great lad who loves playing for us. Like Dan Burn he's part of our identity as well as our playing squad. Gordon, Barnes and Joelinton have all looked out of place when played on the right. I'd like to see whether Willock could play there. As much as he seems to be either hot or cold/injured (most often cold) he has the physical attributes and attacking intent to be dangerous.

Aye, because we need ANOTHER two goalkeepers. Fucking idiot. Re-signing Paul Dummet and Peter Ramage are the only logical choices.

The same appeal process that upheld Schar's. Fuck. Off.

17,561 people looked at their ballot paper last year and thought "yep, she's the one I want representing me!".

Blimey.

Glory days when they were advertising ecstacy.

Looks like Tino might have just sneezed.

The fucking gaul of it. Yeah I know it's gall.

top of the league that matters

I take issue with this article tbh. They give The Beige the title of “closest pub to the ground”, quoting the Villa Tavern, which is nowhere near. The Holte is within sight of the ground, but…err… You can stumble out the door and fall in to your seat! It’s like 30m from the Corner. Fucking beige yam yam cunts

And

he’s another one whose been Howe’d. His ability to improve players is second to none

..... Proves even a stopped clock is right twice a day? Yes, yes it is.

Why’s Sean Dyche getting worked up over that?

Classy fans. Love the first reponse to thisa latest megathread of indignation. Apparently the caller was a Mag. Aye, right.

I passed first time. Didn't get any faults at all.

Not as dirty as the lad who was at it before me. It was like melted mozzarella …

not as dirty as the fuckers who walk the shoreline at low tide looking for clam prostitutes.

Looked it and it says it has multiple meanings, including edible clam and prostitute. Surely that’s just the one?

I’ve never heard any cunt use the word farken in conversation either tbh

Good old Papa Lazaru…

Killer still looks fucking scary as well as having hands like shovels….also a shame Pav wasn’t still with us

I'm really glad I rip the cunts off.

“ How to Present Your Dishes in an Appealing and Appetising Manner- Lesson 1” Not like this. It’s not even a pie hat- it’s like one of those “fascinators” daft lasses wear to the races. Tiny, pointless and probably way overpriced.

That’s weird as fuck. Went to look at a job in Southampton last week, this young lass who signed me in was wearing a black and white shield shaped lapel badge. So with complete disregard for PC niceties I moved in for a closer look….it was then I correctly identified that it was the badge of Santos FC, Pele’s old club. She was super impressed, and i told her my club was partly Brazilian black and white too. She then talked excitedly about Bruno for 10 mins or so. Turns out her mother was Brazilian from Santos and her old man was from Dublin. I got the distinct impression that she’d forgotten more about modern football than I’ll ever know, sort of like The Fish but a lot more charming with nice eyes I’d agree that would be a canny tie in for us in the South American market. Put some money into their scouting system. Fuckin Dango Ouatarra’s hat trick at the weekend came all the way from Lorient in France where that club is owned by Black Knight fc, who ironically also own AFC Bournemouth

Sounds like Santos want to sign Neymar from the Saudi league, but the only way they can do it is to accept a buy out from PIF. That would be a canny feeder club for us

He needs to get booed off a few times. That'll build his confidence back up.

Been lods of shit on Twitter the last couple of days after the sky reporter started his report on Isak's second goal talking about how Arsenal fans want him. I see Downie has chirped in defending his colleague, which I get, but then tried to claim there haven't been loads of instances of sky trying to push him to Arsenal (or Chelsea or Manure or Liverpool or even Spurs ffs) to which he's been immediately shot down. The most disappointing thing he's said though, is that if it was his team, he'd see it as a compliment. Why the fuck would we see it as compliment when they're suggesting we can't keep one of our players away from a team that's only a couple of places above us in the league and who we have a massive cup semi final against next week. Yet again it shows the unbelievable bias they have to the former top six clubs. They aren't remotely interested in promoting any clubs. I find it more and more difficult every day to bare sky sports. Glad I pay them fuck all.
