The Republican kid who shot at Trump was a 'leftist'. Ok. Hell, I wish he had been, would have been nice to see the left actually try to do -something- Even that Luigi kid appears to have been right wing ffs.

I've just seen a speech by him on reddit where he says he's no longer going to deport farm/hotel workers but will instead provide them with a way to become legal citizens This process was in place already, before Trump dismantled it. The only reason he is getting away with this absolute farce is because the people listening to him don't trust any other media sources - so he can say whatever he wants because their ignorance combined with total distrust for their own institutions means he can tell them reality is whatever he says it is. It really is 1984 stuff.

I was thinking this earlier too They're really not convincing. That said, I can't quite get my head around the idea that we beat them 4 times in one season.

The kid who tried to shoot him was a registered as a Republican for one thing Beyond that, if we don't lock politicians up for committing crimes, are we saying that they're just better than the rest of us? It's the same as Le Pen - she committed a fucking crime, she stole 5m from the public purse to fund her own party, she deserves the book to be thrown at her. As ever the thing right wing fuckwits have to get into their head is this - it's not "The Left" that is taking down individuals in your movements - it's the fact that many of them are actual criminals. If you want a world where your economic terrorism can operate unchecked by legal constraints on your leaders... then don't choose criminals as leaders. Fucking hell. And before it is said, literally any centrist or left leaning person would agree with politicians from 'our side' being sent down for the same things. The only people who excuse criminals are the right.

Christ... hope he's ok ffs, that doesn't sound good at all.

Despite the best efforts of TT to sabotage that, Everton got it done Great result for us.

... Maybe we agree that HMHM has sole commenting responsbility for everything.

You're killing me man 😭

This is why no one anywhere, should comment on any game

Huh they missed the pen.

Promising signs for our upcoming game against Villa mind - Southampton are going to lose it, they just conceded a pen, but Villa have offered nothing for the rest of the game. Tired presumably. Same again next weekend hopefully.

Can we just all agree not to talk about one particular other game

Apparently they're dropping Onana for this in favour of Bayindir. Think we need to race ahead and then start subbing people off at 60 mins really, that Palace game is very awkwardly placed.

This is pathetic from the Americans tbh

It's going to have to be Chelsea. We can beat them at home anyway and frankly I'd prefer to see them miss out than anyone else we're in the mix with.

I doubt he has enough principle for it to be deeply held. To me he seems like a political tryhard. He's nailed his cock to the mast of team starmer and will come out backing or defending anything that the party tries to push, and then going one further to demonstrate how loyal he is. That's how he comes across to me anyway.

Just in case anyone thought the Guardian let us off too lightly over winning the cup despite being owned by Saudi... https://www.theguardian.com/football/2025/apr/12/tainted-victory-newcastles-saudi-influence-still-divisive-after-success Even references Pearson ffs, as if he's now some sort of club ambassador.

I'm curious what @strawb makes of those two errors from Onana. I feel like the media is trying to spin a bit of a story out of them because of the Matic thing. The first one I think he was thrown off by thinking someone was about to get a head on it - the second one I kinda think he was let down by the defense a bit even if he did spill it, none of them reacted. I'm no expert though.

You evil genius.

I still think we need a bit more time for this to sink in - for us this has been big news but if you're a standard yank it's probably not even registered particularly. It's only been about a week.

You guys still labouring under the delusion that I was kidding about that 'check every 2 months' thing

Yeah looks rough... a third of the workforce?

This is genuinely pretty accurate

Wyki in turn reported you for reporting him All of which confirms to me that checking the thing once every couple of months is more than enough.

Just came across this article in the Guardian about Robledo: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2025/apr/08/george-robledo-newcastle-great-scoring-record-overseas Apparently still holds the record for the most goals scored in a top flight season in England for a foreign born player. Ahead of even Henry and Salah.
