Fair enough if you’re going to Wembley to contest the elite competitions, but let’s not pretend eh. The only reason you went there was because you were fucking shite, its not even good enough to be described as mediocre. 


You’re proud you were competing in the Papa Smurf Cup and the 2nd division playoffs, honestly? :lol: :lol: :lol: 

 

Id want to keep that quiet tbh

You'd have thought they'd have focused more on the fact they got to the final themselves 9 years ago and leading for a good proportion of the match. 

But no, not them. Instead it's all about the Pizza Cup :lol:

I’ve said this before but you can’t belittle the huge achievement of winning EFL Trophy. Just a few years back a tie between Boro and Burton drew in a crowd of 202 people and Carlisle have won it twice.

So with their top scorer injured for the season and their second striker recalled to Everton, the Mackems have replaced them both with a 20 year old from Leeds with 3 career goals.
 

He is literally the only striker in their squad for the 2nd half of the season with them chasing a playoff spot. Are their finances that fucked!?

One player being injured shouldn’t have too much impact on a side capable of finishing half way up the division above

It’s fucking mental on there like. There’s a thread praising the owners and ‘the process’. So have they got a billionaire owner or not? Rhetorical question, obviously. They’ve got no fit CF and are worse off than before the window

Let's all look forward to 4 weeks time where we'll either have 'screwed up a chance of major silverware' or 'it's a shit, nothing trophy anyway'.

Actually felt a bit for Jeff Brown on it last night. Stood outside SJP, smiling through gritted teeth with his eyes telling the real story 

 

:lol: Especially with Gibbo laying it on as thick as only he can with an awestruck Knight sitting in his living room making notes as an apprentice, (still), from his master's Geordie tales of yore whilst Jeff innards were twisting and squirming into knots of hardened bile.

That podcast John Gibson did a while back with Tim Vickery and Dotun Adebayo was good. Where he was talking about the Fairs Cup run etc. But Gibson’s name-dropping was off the scale. He was mates with everybody in the 60s. Not just those from Newcastle but even if they’d just visited Newcastle :lol:

No idea who Galhart is but what if he doesn't? For these and other conundrums stay tuned. :good:

 

3 career goals in senior football. Sounds nailed on he’ll bag 20 in less than half a season. Just needs a 😎

I like Gelhardt from Leeds, but pinning your hopes on him to fire you to the Play Offs and beyond is setting yourself up for a pretty cold cup of Yorkshire Disappointea

“ Galhart stood on the centre spot and took it all in- here he was, at the greatest football team in Wearside, desperate to impress. 
As he scanned the half empty stadium he felt a tear spring forth- was it the emotion of what lay ahead, or was it just the meaty tang of seat turds making his eyes sting? 
One thing he knew, he’d definitely be here longer than the gaffer.”

It's a conundrum alright. Why have Leeds loaned out Gelhardt to Sunderland when Sunderland are above them* in the league?

It makes no sense!

* Mackem make beleive league.

Gibbo’s match preview podcast he does for the chronicle has become my guilty pleasure. I could listen to the bloke talk all day.
