Suggesting NUFC isn't PIF's top priority doesn't mean I'm not happy with how they're running the club; it's just an observation. I don't think it's mad to suggest they're not wearing black and white goggles when they're bankrolling a £1billion tournament that we're not competing in. I'm quite comfortable with it, tbh. Rightly or wrongly, Saudi money being everywhere makes their involvement with us easier to stomach. Do wonder how things would've played out had they not hit the jackpot with Eddie Howe, but that's a concern for another day really.

I’d literally change the whole pre, half time and post match sets to be Fender. They’d be jumping off Level 7 like lemmings.

Jesus he's rooting Chloe Ferry? Literally the thickest woman in existence. He's got a low bar. What a sad prick, his wife must be pissing herself laughing.

The whole thing is best taken for what it actually is - a huge charade to distribute as much wealth as possible to a few carefully selected clubs. Not one of the teams want to be there, not a single player wants to play the games, the ticket prices are irrelevant, the attendances don't matter and the fact it's being broadcast for free tells you how much 'the product' is actually worth. It's been arranged with the sole intention of pumping more Saudi cash into the sport in order to exert power and influence over future decisions FIFA will make in the next 20+ years. Anyone taking it seriously needs to take a few steps back, take off the normal glasses and fuck the whole thing off. It's a piece of jewel-encrusted shit of a tournament

They’ve priced it incorrectly. They have taken an NFL price structure for tickets simply because it’s being hosted on the USA. They’ve also read far too much into the Messi Inter Miami tickets selling for hundreds. If this was held in the U.K. or a European country, every game would be a sellout (although not with the initial pricing structure), same for South America.

Straight out the DCL playbook

We’ve heard.

Goal, the empty seats go wild.

Great play from Jackson. Goal Neto.

Got an assist from a corner for their second goal too

I don't want to play that, ever.

I agree he fits the managers style. Gordon is a touchy subject - I still don’t think he’s that good he’s 24 and had 1 good season in his career. I like him and I’m not in his thread trying to sell him like many others are. But if we sold him for £60m I wouldn’t feel we were robbed. The reason I think we should get more is that he’s actually delivered and players like JP are linked for £60m without delivering. I like JP’s ability more than Gordon mind. Some of his finishes and his jinkyness is excellent. But I don’t like how he hasn’t delivered consistently and has the nerve to push for a move. At least Cunha balled out before acting a cunt and Gordon was boo’d. Gordon has shown he can hook it up mentally, JP hasn’t. As others have said if JP had we would be talking £80m+. The PL to PL moves are mad.

Have him play local hero in the centre circle when both teams come out for the Derby. Heads exploding all over Wearside.

What the actual fuck is Tripps wearing here man? A settled, beautiful family and he's lost his fkn mind...for a shag. SMH Staggering.

Aye, wasting all that negative energy on someone just because they support a different team is bizarre. Yes, give him a swerve if his music isn't to your taste but the collective fallout from them has been thoroughly batshit. They're not wired correctly.

Wonder if FIFA have been consulting the mackematics textbewk for when they give the attendance

The two threads have produced over 70 pages. A whole fanbase is totally in bits because of one musician. I really hope we can get him to play a couple of songs in the game up here next season

This tournament is just out of touch execs spunking ideas in a pot and playing soggy biscuit with influencers

probably

FIFA will surely want to bin off the smaller clubs, and invite more prestige names for 2029. Or maybe the crowds will improve if held in a footballing nation?

Looks like he's raided DCL's suitcase

Depends if the super stadium was more than 65k.

He 100% fits into the managers style. You often talk about data and numbers but never seem to mention how these numbers can change. What were Gordon's numbers at Everton? Im not talking goals/assists, I'm talking the other stuff. He's 23. I can only tell you what I see and I see someone with a bit of everything, power, pace, can hold up the ball, take on a man. I will concede that 60m is on the steep end but the potential there is massive. I could see him being an animal. If he signs, let's look at his data in 18/24 months. Make me that deal?

What’s your point exactly? Would you have preferred that alternative reality?

Euphemism?
