"I intend to help with the grassroots campaign in the USA in any way that I can" = I am currently engaged in busily attempting to shove my entire cranium up Trump's asshole. Obviously it has gone so well for everyone associated with Trump, as they've all gone on to prestigious positions and enjoyed success in their careers after getting into bed with him. I wish him all the best.

Generic small time football blather thread FOREVER
acrossthepond replied to Sonatine's topic in Newcastle Forum
Spoilt for choice, which makes a change. Maddison is a distant fourth in that quartet and probably should've been left out altogether for another defender. Whisper it quietly but Hall came into form at the right time. If Adam Wharton's in, I see no reason for Hall to miss out, especially considering LB is a blatant problem position for us. If he'd still been playing for Chelsea he probably would've been in. Note the obligatory Liverpool defender as well, can't leave the red shirt club out. -

I had a lad tell me today that he followed Man City through "some tough times." I used to be this child's teacher and coach and I know for a fact he's about 23, so unless he was wrapped in a City scarf as a bairn, there's no fucking way he knew anything about "tough times" at City. So I asked him what tough times those were, and he goes "well, we didn't win any titles until 'Aguero.'" 6.5

Brighton laid down for Chelsea and Man U exactly as predicted by someone on here. Somehow the 1bn frauds manage to sneak above us - but Man U, for the first time, can properly know their new place in the PL. Now Pep's lads just need to do the business and we're off to a bunch of places we've never heard of, playing in a competition we might very well win. Brilliant season, had some seriously dodgy bits in the middle there, but we've come out the other end looking like a top-class side. Full credit to Howe once more. We've come up against it this season and still performed brilliantly.

Didn't take long. They are rotten from top to bottom, there's not a winner amongst them. They need to bring someone in who will be given full control to reshape the club's identity and bring in his own staff and squad. But of course Levy is too much of a control freak to allow that, so we'll have this never-ending carousel of players and managers who think they have the bottle to transform Spurs but end up going Ketsbaia on the subs' bench (Bentancur) or losing their cool (Ange, Conte, Mourinho) or fucking off (Kane) or going off the boil (Maddison/Son) or just simply opting out (Lloris v. us last season when he got "injured" at half time.)

It's one of the things you get drilled into you at the most basic level of coaching. But then, PL-standard players still commit foul throws and play square balls across their own box....

Electric afternoon at my apartment as well. The wife had the kids out at the playground and I had the place all to myself. They heard me singing "We're going to Italy" coming off the elevator down the hallway - we'd just scored our third (also my fav goal of that season.) Who knows what the neighbors thought, and who cares? Hoping for a similar grandstand finish this season - I'm picturing 5000 Geordies singing "you're getting sacked in the morning" to a clueless Dutch fraud as the mighty Isak powers us into the EL.

That's a penalty if and only if Man U are losing. On no other pitch in this country is that given, it's absolutely mental.

Absolutely not, we've got to beat scum like this at the ballot box. I thought once would be enough, but as always, some shits don't flush the first time.

What I've enjoyed most about this commentary is the endless repetitions of how awful we've been with nary a whisper of how fucking terrible Fulham must therefore be, since they're sleepwalking to a 0-2 defeat with barely a twitch. It's like there's only one team playing. If I were a Fulham fan I'd be outraged to have paid to watch that shower of shite.

Nailed on, just got a Trippier jersey for Christmas. First NUFC shirt I've had in more than a decade.

I think instead of these wretched puns, you should get to posting some Nefer-titties. Ptolemy hold you up.

Already used, that joke is older than the Middle Kingdom.

That's quite enough out of you fuls. Acting like a bunch of bloody Sisis.

He's fine, more's the pity. And what a surprise, we played infinitely better and scored twice while he was off, the fraud. Players I've been slagging off for years suddenly looked like professional footballers instead of the great Salah's entourage. Even renowned two-first-name-having motherfucker Mustafa Mohamed finally looked like a player.

Fuck's sake

I took the first meaning as well, that the incompetent ref bottled sending off Hume for what was clearly a yellow card offence. Speaking of Hume, what a fucking clogger Utter rubbish, nothing but a walking foul all game, terrible terrible player. Perfect for the mackems, he sums them up perfectly. Bad hair, shit mustache, dirty-tackling irrelevant little work'ee ticket cunt.
