Just seen his question to Rudd. Fuck me he was (rightly) furious...

Mitro Gayle Darlow Elliot Colback Clark Gamez Manquillo Merino Yedlin are all expendable and I expect half of them to go. They may not generate a lot, but that's where we're at.

Yeah well APART from them Point still stands, we're selling to buy which isn't good for the depth of the squad...

Think if the cups go as described we need to finish 7th, with Arsenal and Chelsea finishing 5th & 6th, that would give the league Europa spot to us

Seeing as we’ve never spent more than 11mill on a player since Ashley bought the club I think some are over indulging in their Football Manager type fantasies here a bit We'll probably sign the goalie but I seriously think Kenedy and Slimani are outside our likely budget without selling players. Which probably means getting rid of Gayle & Mitro at least which to me means yes we'll likely get some new free faces in but the squad won't improve that much.

Didn’t decide to go to the game till late but was pleased to be greeted by the unexpected sight of @Howmanheyman as soon as we stepped foot into our first Tyneside bar fresh off the train On the grounds of confidentiality and taste I can’t divulge the name of the aforementioned bar but it’s been recently done up for the first time in at least 30 years and the bogs no longer stink like a navvies arse crack after a 10 hour shift. Anyway, according to my calculations the following scenario(s) get us a place in Europe next season... Liverpool win champions league Arsenal win Europa league Chelsea win FA cup Burnley lose all their league games We win all ours Over to you Rafa

No one outside “the usual suspects” have done these at home this season...but we’re the form team of the division so it’s a win by at least two for Rafas free flowing semi pragmatism v the horrifying Stone Age brutalism of Bisto tits

Mad Not that sure it was a pen

0-3 @ the Bernebeu

Phoned my mate earlier, he lives with a lass from Corbridge but her folks are mackems and her son is a season ticket holder..he was leaving early for the match tonight........SO HE COULD PICK HIS SEAT FOR NEXT SEASON AS THEYRE HAVING TO SHUT HALF THE GROUND

Aye as a plan b him and Vardy are potentially a fuckin dream. If Jonjo nicks 3-4 goals before the end of the season he"ll be hard for anyone to ignore...anyone who isn't Southgate that is...

They're in Moscow on Thursday night and have been awful away from home all season. 0-3, Ozil looking like some sort of Teutonic/Turkish hybrid Messi type-dude

I get the argument that he's a squad player at a some of the club's that he's been linked with but Chelsea are fuckin chronic this season and he's at least as good on this form as anyone there bar Hazard who as Andrew says might be moving too. He'll be given a chance next season and if he doesn't take it he'll be out on loan again next January iyam.

Isn't he just as likely to be starting for Chelsea next season as anyone?...suppose that depends on their (very likely) new coach but you might think the likes of Willian might fancy one last move, and he's better than Moses...

Amber Rudd....either a blatant liar or utterly incompeten. Or, and evidence is certainly pointing that way, both...* * with added Boris Johnson, who wrote the book on this shit...

If you know Mitro really well – if you attack and you create a lot of chances and crosses he will score goals, no doubt that. But a team that has 40-45 or even 35% possession in some games, you have to defend in some games, you have to play counter-attack. If you don’t have all these players who can do that and you have to sacrifice something. https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/wondering-rafa-loaned-mitro-read-14364221

For all the 50ths this week...including my sister who first put a record by this lot into my sweaty hand..... RIP MLK & Jim Clark

How many posts would someone need to tell you to shut the fuck up you soppy twat?

Forsooth, yonder curr the darstadly Moyes Noelie is so old it looks like he was in the same English class as Shakespeare...

Class from Baresi & Milan...

I had mine out in 2009 and haven't changed any lifestyle habits... Am still here like..

Ray Wilkins

Fuck me Boris caught out lying? What a completely unexpected surprise ..... in normal circumstances you'd have to question the competence of the fuckin idiot who appointed him....but am not sure if we'll ever get back to what used to be normal circumstances again

That's the Victoria Tavern in Plaistow high street opposite Travis Perkins? I came closer to a pre game kicking there a few years back than at any point in the last 25 years the only thing that saved us was that I think the locals were a bit taken aback to begin with that 7/8 idiots in black and white had the temerity to stroll into their boozer at 1130am on a Saturday morning to watch a sky game that kicked off at 1200 (might have been Manu v arsenal or something ) We took a few digs stood at the bar finished out pints sharpish and fucked right off. A lad we know who wasn't there was a Travis Perkins manager at the time, he knew the branch opposite and later thst week phoned the manager for a chat, and mentioned to his opposite number (staunch hammer) what had gone on at the weekend. He said he'd heard all about it and said we were the luckiest cunts in London that day, a few former ICF were regulars and in the back bar deciding what they were going to do to us when we fucked off (Just remembered, it was 2006/7, I know this because WHU were in Europe, I know that because the pub was selling "INTER CITY FIRM V THE COSA NOSTRA" t shirts behind the bar, we both played Palermo that season)
