Dunno but NUFC Twitter losing its shit because ASM hasn’t travelled and is therefore en route to Jeddah to witness the latest beheadings or something

Has anyone seen the match day squad? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Fairly convinced that the only reason we’ve sold out an 8k away end on a school night is because it’s not actually a school night for actual school children

That’s a new one on me Dave , very apt though

Congrats strawb mate, just be sure to put pics up of the happy event so we can feel more involved and definitely not be nosey bastards making judgmental comments about your new missus

Because, as previously mentioned, he was one of the best players in the world last season. That’s a massive difference if we use a transfer fee from our own owners to finance a move for one of the best players in the world. I think it’s highly unlikely. But I think there’s a good chance that ASM will go to Saudi…

Going to say it now…despite PiF blatantly helping Chelsea out earlier in the window I think it’s an incredibly bad look for us to sell anyone to a Saudi club owned by PiF. If it were another club we’d all criticise it to say the least . I don’t think our owners have done much wrong since they’ve bought us, the shit that’s been chucked our way has been largely jealousy. This is different, it’s gaming to gain an advantage in the transfer market. All that being said, if we end up with one of the best young attacking talents on the planet in kvaratskhelia my principles will very likely be out the fucking window the moment I’m in a football ground and see him in a black and white shirt

Don’t know if you noticed Gemma spending a precious Saturday morning sorting an IT issue on here then gloating about it a few weeks back? Same energy

Agree with every word. No one had survived from the position we were in. I wasn’t too disappointed after we appointed him, mostly due to being fairly resigned to relegation anyway. I thought he’d be good in the championship with a decent budget but his previous struggles with Bournemouth didn’t fill me with hope of staying up. Happy to be proved wrong..

My Bournemouth mates annihilate me for my periodic slaggings of EH during his tenure at AFCB. Happy to admit to being 100% wrong, whilst pointing out that there was nothing in his record to suggest he was the right fit at the time he was appointed to the job at NUFC 😀

Lots of fuckin FIFA/FM ninnies on the bird app filling their nappies in mid July We could often accurately predict what would happen in a window under Ashley and penfold. It’s different now, we absolutely don’t know more than Ashworth, Eddie and their backroom teams. I’ve just read some foetus saying “OMG I CANT BELEIVE WE’LL BE HEARING THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE MUSIC WITH ALMIRON AND BURN STOOD IN THE LINE UP” its just such a crock of shit….no one outside of the NUFC training ground knows what’s going on. If I had to guess there’s something about Diaby that doesn’t suit top clubs’ approach to the game ie pressing ability. Fully intend to enjoy what’s left of the summer and then enjoy the season, it’s going to be fuckin great 😎

Now then Tynemouth Timmy, the Malhotra group have got a nice little portfolio if you should ever desire to lower yourself 😆 https://malhotragroup.co.uk/leisure/venues/

Meltdown at the Wearside League for Middle Eastern Human Rights (formed Oct 2021)

Less than 50 posts in 13 years and this is the precise moment you decide to get animated??

Yeah I thought the same, it would be beautifully fuckin poetic for Murdoch & his goons at the sun if they were charged with blackmailing him. Looks like Murdoch wants to kill the bbc before he dies. I have more contempt for him, his shitty family, and his various lieutenants over the years than I have for just about anyone else on the planet..

Wonder if the parents were trying to blackmail the poor fucker? 🤔

He’s commentated on every significant state occasion for maybe the last decade? That’s awkward for the BBC historic footage department

It’s sustainable because we’re borrowing billions from the markets for the war then just printing money out of thin air to replace it. Neo Liberalism…keep the entire planet in debt forever and only have an illusion of real democracy…in practice corporations run the world, Sunak ultimately works for Goldman Sachs and in a way always has done…

Yep, he joined in 1974 and left in 1988 so definitely links the two eras but Tommy Docherty signed him. The last time Busby was manager appears to be at the end of 70/71… unless they’re including his time as director/president?.. I think it’s just really poorly written by the “senior football correspondent” Richard Jolly. And not edited before it went live. Fuckin shoddy as fuck.

Ok, am either having an episode, this is very poorly written so I don’t really understand it or it’s bullshit. It appears to be saying there was at least one player at Man Utd in Nov 86 when Ferguson took over that was at Man Utd when they were relegated in 1974?.. Here’s the squad, the oldest is Kevin Moran at 31 who signed in 1978…. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/manchester-united/kader/verein/985/saison_id/1986 Does it then suggest or imply that this player must’ve been signed by Busby? 🤔

Polarboy after reading Gemmil’s post

He’s a smart lad, he’s managed to clean off the Thistle bonding coat plaster and removed the dry wall screws from her arse
