OTF

Who'd have thought things could be even more on the wayne.

Fair to also say that the newest local generation won't have the same level of support as previous ones so there will be a lasting impact upon the supporter base. Internationally as well there will be a huge drop as they officially slide back into a pack of anonymous clubs that they have somehow managed to keep their nose ahead of despite Ashley's identity stripping inside job.

Bassong was more than a reasonable prospect, Guthrie had talent and Xisco..... was an exception.

What can this forum be rebranded as? Tynetastic? Get behind big Mike and the lads in their push for the National League.

There's nothing to lose for me lad, if they win nobody will care, if they lose a few (myself included) will watch a three minute highlight package, smirk, then get on with their day.

Luques like you've gone too far...

I'd really like ut if they lost in the final. Don't think that will happen though, if it does it will be a victory for morality, even if it's the Dutch getting 7 dubious VAR handball penalties and winning 1-0. From what I've seen the USA players have shown no humility throughout the tournament, most patently against Thailand, but continuing beyond. When they could have been winning fans to the game and for themselves they've distanced themselves from everyone that isn't American. Safe to say that their own country probably doesn't give two hoots about them either, let's not forget that their men's team didn't even qualify for the World Cup.

Nacho sure about that one.

That's the power of love.

...oversized sports direct mug

Absolutely taking the piss with the inspired by 69 spin. Once again a basic stripes fail. Terrible. That said a few games into the season I won't care at all (assuming we have a new owner).

Primarily the latter for me, with some hope that a new owner will have legitimate ambition.

Hope not, as completely, wholly and indisputably legitimate new sponsorship and naming right deals are the most legitimate way to subvert comply with FFP rules whilst spending oodles.

Sheikh's 15 vs Cockney Bastards

Due diligence completed. High profile broker for football club sales has been involved from the start. Several private jets scheduled to arrive at Newcastle airport on Friday morning, Du Vin booked out Saturday night. MD of Bin Zayed Group Midhat Kidwai telling people on linkedin that he hopes to be celebrating on Saturday night. 'Journalists' scrambling because they don't have inside information. I think it's happening. Whether or not it's a good thing remains to be seen.

By all reports they confirmed to the Chronicle that the discussions were genuine and ongoing. They also confirmed that Lee Ryder is a bell end.

Sheikh Ahleg Anmai Dingaling?

Hope it's not another beat up by big cotton.

Reckon the commentary teams, in studio washed up players et cetera would turn that into a defensive gritty grudge match for the ages. "An instant classic". Unless there's plenty of goals and drama from both sides it will be quickly forgotten, and even then much of the world will have little care for it.

And Shelvey 😁 ...and Joselu more like it.

Can't tell whether he's just started his lawn mower, is about to unleash a furious uppercut or is just a very enthusiastic hokey pokey'er.

Was just a streaker with a stunning set on her as well.

Nice poacher's finish there from Perez.

Superb strike from Shelvey there.

2.5 of them are on clean up duty.
