The Fish

2 out of three ain't bad. I'm not black.

It was just a Banter. I have previously posted one of those league tables adjusted to account for erroneous refereeing decisions and offsides and the like. Just so happened that it launched us up the table and saw the mackems relegated. That went down well.

Thanks Doc Tickles me that I'm accused of trying too hard to come off as a "decent Mag", when really I'm just saying what I say on here. I feel like the BBC, getting accused of bias from both sides.

I'm still not clear on the timeline. Is it pre Patrick Stewart? Post Kirk? Some of the in-universe technology looks more advanced than The Next Generation, but they've only just met Klingons? I'm enjoying it so far though.

That I like attention?

I wonder if a more polished interviewing team would have got the relaxed version of Shearer's public face though?

On RTG, by virtue of being a Newcastle fan I'm immediately a novelty and therefore more likely to get into a conversation.

Typo, dicksplash.

To be honest there's some good stuff from Shearer, but the fat lad only has a few interesting questions and too often steers the topic of the conversation back to him. I was doing this when you signed, you were my hero, I know someone who committed suicide so tell me about Speed. The other lad was fine by comparison

Shearer saying he's all about hard work and shouty Youtuber "The True Geordie" nodding sagely in agreement. F.F.S.

Sometimes it does feel a bit like I'm King Canute, but there's plenty of times I've tucked someone in. I also think there's some value in disproving some of the nonsense. Say again, there are some decent posters on there, and the ones who define their support of Sunderland by how loudly and frequently they show their hatred for Newcastle are easily ignored. People like Bear, Reiver or whomever. Plus at the minute their club is in turmoil, it's interesting to witness the tumult 1st hand. Like a AP reporter embedded in a country in the throws of a peasant uprising.

Can't you make a Facebook album private, and shared only with those you want?

Yet the natural enemy of those hoverboards you like is a Curb...

I am quite unapologetic for my verbosity. I'm quite the sesquipedalian you see. Not ashamed, embarrassed or repetent either.

Is Shearer wearing a shirt with his "brand name" on it, to fit in with the fat lad?

"I've let a guy suck my dick so I could get high" "You ever sucked a dick to get drugs?" "No" "So you do have limits?" Was pretty bleak mind, 1 in 10 babies born in Huntingdon are addicted to opiates. Interesting that much of it was somehow linked to the demise of the heavy industry in that town, wonder if there's a similar consequence in British regions where heavy industry has died.

To be fair I think we're mostly coming up with reasons why it won't happen. Even those who're coming up with reasons why it might are probably just doing so to have a conversation about it. I don't think anyone is convinced it will happen.

Tu quoque

I'm just thinking ahead mate, like the rest of us.

No, I get all that, but I'm tempering any excitement at the prospect of any possible new owner because of Ashley's intractable nature. He says he's happy to sell, but the price tag seems high and he's known for shifting the goalposts (apparently), on top of that the only thing he's ever cared about is the promotion of Sports Direct so I wouldn'tbe surprised if he insists on some kind of SD deal for merchandise or whatever. I dunno, perhaps I am being too cynical, but if Staveley wants to buy a Premier League club I'm convinced Ashley and his cronies would prove too much of a pain in the arse to deal with?

That's the kernel of my concerns. Ashley is a notoriously difficult negotiator, and Barnes apparently has a reputation for being a pain the arse.

Oh and fuck all y'all.

Aye maybe so, and if the choice was between us and West Ham, or Everton I'd fancy us to win out. But Liverpool are a different beast entirely.

It's interesting, when the parts click, they're excellent. But there must be something to explain why, when they stop clicking, they struggle so much to win games. They have the talent, the workrate, the invention and "game management". He doesn't seem able to get them to grind out a win. That might be a lack of a goal scorer who can have a pretty quiet game, but still be relied upon to put the ball in the back of the net like Kane, Lukaku, Joselu. Or it might be that Klopp's coaching is lacking that department.

Yep. It's like a conversation with an advanced AI. Although some are more advanced than others.
