Daniel Storey F365: The three Newcastle United myths “Well they are never happy, are they? They want to win the Champions League but they’re not in it unfortunately” – Mark Lawrenson, November 7. Well, yes and no. Of course Newcastle United fans would like to win the Champions League. Every supporter of every club wants their team to be as successful as it can be. But that’s not the point (and it’s not Lawrenson’s point either). He is insinuating (as many other pundits have) that there is an unhelpful entitlement amongst Newcastle United supporters, a lack of gratitude for their current situation. You’re 14th in the Premier League, guys – what’s the worry? The worry is that they support a football team that barely even tries to attack. After 84 minutes against Chelsea on Saturday, with their team 2-0 down but with a throw-in close to Chelsea’s goalline, Newcastle played the ball back down the line, then into central midfield and then to their goalkeeper. Karl Darlow launched the ball upfield and Chelsea won back possession. That’s the worry. Newcastle rank 20th in the league for shots per game. Newcastle rank 20th in the league for shots on target per game. Newcastle rank 20th in the league for touches in the opposition box per game. Newcastle rank 20th in the league for passes in the final third per game. Newcastle rank… 19th in the league for successful passes per game. Huzzah! “Newcastle don’t have the personnel to play any other way.” Nonsense. They have Callum Wilson, a proven No. 9 who will score when serviced effectively and probably still score a few when he isn’t. They have Miguel Almiron and Allan Saint-Maximin, two exciting wide attackers whose confidence has been shorn to the point of disillusionment (see the comments of Almiron’s agent this week for details). They have Ryan Fraser too, and a collection of capable midfield holders. They have Jamal Lewis, an excellent attacking left-back. It is true that Newcastle don’t have a squad capable of making a sustainable challenge for a top-six place or one suited to playing all-out-attack football, but then both of those are straw-man arguments. They do have a squad that might offer more if they didn’t sit 40 yards from their own goal and hope that their goalkeeper produces consistent brilliance to keep them in matches. “Erm, they played exactly like this under Rafael Benitez.” They did indeed play very deep under Benitez against Big Six opponents, particularly away from home. Benitez got plenty of stick for one defeat against Manchester City in which Newcastle also barely bothered to try and attack. But here’s the thing: They didn’t always play that way. Between January 1 and the end of 2018/19, when Benitez managed his last game, Newcastle ranked joint-sixth in the league for goals, seventh for chances created and ninth for shots and shots on target. Their five most regular attacking starters were Salomon Rondon, Ayoze Perez, Miguel Almiron, Christian Atsu and Matt Ritchie. Those options are not better than Bruce’s now, and were certainly less expensive. But really, none of this matters. Because you do not get to tell football supporters how they should support their club, particularly those who have ploughed thousands of pounds and hours into it. There’s nothing wrong with wanting more than this (and it would be great if Bruce recognised that and was more adventurous). There’s nothing wrong with wanting your team to attack or even wondering what might happen if they didn’t sit so deep. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to be entertained by your football team. Anyone that tells you otherwise is wrong

Hi Tommy...its widely rumoured you spend all the housekeeping on pinball mate....

It doesn't have to be superfrozen, it can be stored in a conventional fridge. That's a game changer for the third world. The trials were split between the UK & Brazil 0.5 then a full dose apparently gives the 90% figure

Which is what I said originally... KD is tight, it is semantics. But the point remains, people are cunts without religion. Blaming the majority of warfare on religion is a sweeping generalisation I just can’t get on with. The central tenets of all major religions on the planet are peace, love and understanding. Most of us know that’s fuckin bollocks. If you covet thy neighbour’s Ox you’ll take thy neighbour’s ox, murder him then move into his house and take all his land. Fuck all in the scriptures will stop that. There’s also tiny bits in the scriptures that are exploited by the aforementioned cunts to manipulate the easily lead, to take an entire herd, then the farm, murdering all the farm workers in the process. But you’ve still got to covet thy neighbours ox in the first place...

So if everyone was an atheist there’d be no wars?

Agreed. A tiny minority of literal terrorists. Their brothers in Islamic State were more typical though. The first thing they did once they got properly organised was to declare that large parts of Iraq & Syria were part of their own personal Caliphate.

I don’t subscribe to sky but BT sport for £7-99 a month is a no brainier for me

Well I enjoyed that half.... had a slice of warm Higgedy sweet balsamic onion quiche & packet of plain Walkers. Now washing it down with a cup of tea and a mince pie

What was the point of all these religious wars? The “English” Civil War was largely sectarian. What was the result of it?

He doesn’t nail anything for me...the old “religion causes war” bollocks....man’s lust for land, power and money causes war. Religion is used as a way of dividing the sides, but it doesn’t cause the war. Cunts cause wars. A moral, facist cunts.

James O'brien has just done a bit on the PP bullying thing....hd said basically because the current cabinet are propping up a man who lied through his teeth to get to be PM then lied through his teeth at the last General election it would be extremely foolish of the PM to start sacking them, his enablers....not a government as such, just a bunch of hugely dishonest and complicit walkers.

From the neck down she looks like a medium Oak Furniture land Ltd chest of draws

I'm not sure that's real

Yeah we said that as teenagers..."ragde"was an adjective rather than a noun ie "thon cunts fuckin radged!" meaning "that chappy is eccentrically over exuberant and boisterous" "That cunts fuckin donnart" & ""That cunts fuckin burdit" were both accusations of foolishness in adolescent males (go figure ) and I've never heard anyone either in Scotland or Northumberland use them outside of the Kale Valley...

No king of any country had proper jurisdiction over my ancestors...until, at the Union of the Crowns, James VI / I rounded the brigands up and either hung them on the spot or transported them to Workington and from there to Ireland....some say that’s when their problems really began

If he’s an NUFC supporter there’s a fair chance I’ve at least had a pint with him... This was taken from the garden of my childhood home in the summer....the sale of which is completes on Friday 😢

We don’t tie bridegrooms to a horse and cart then tar & feather them, if that’s what you’re wondering?

Kirk Yetholm? How fuckin dare you. I was bullied to within an inch of my life four miles away in Morebattle

Guten aben!

Spain beating the Bosch 3-0 at half time 🥳 edit: FUCKIN SIX NOWT

Porridge wogs to be tied to their beds upon pain of imprisonment in an attempt to make them fuckin behave themselves for a change the fuckin filthy bastards @Kevin Carr's Gloves 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

It would be interesting to see if Starmer would get into bed with characters like these....judging by the way Blair & Mandelson have stuffed millions from any tin pot Kleptocratic cunt that needs some respectability I have my doubts...
