All Activity

Taking up real estate from who we should've had on our shirts all along; Jimmy Nail.

I like fender he's funny. ADHD behaviour, this is totally normal, attached to something that gives you comfort, passionate about things you love. Probably had things boxed off for years and is truly able to express himself however he wants right now, more power to the lad, too many 'normal' people wouldn't have a clue!

Still think mid July is the time we should even start to be concerned about activity. Summer barely even started.

Haha aye I fucking bet it does!

You're a heretic if you do, and then then witch-hunt begins

To be fair there is mackem culture, its like the stuff you see in an epidemiologists petri dish

Why? he wouldn't have been getting that for free you know

I just find all of this deeply, deeply odd. It’s the behaviour of weirdos. Surely this shite is being called out by some of them? I feel embarrassed on their behalf. Cringe doesn’t even begin to cover it

He set a high bar in 23/24, was always going to be tough to maintain those standards the following season. Regardless, 16 G/A isn't to be sniffed at. I think what's got up my nose most about him this season was his throwing the arms in the air and whinging when things aren't going his way. His harrying and chasing back seems to have dropped off quite a bit too.

Yeah I don't think anyone is saying that, but in a business where you need to sell high, it's sometimes now or never, otherwise you're saddled with a player who leaves on a free, it all depends on how the regime want to grow the club.

He’s not been that bad, lads. Christ. I’m sure he’ll be back to being one of our most effective players again next season.

The lads immensely talented, writes & performs some quality music, is passionate about his area, his football team & his friends, I love the fact he's not afraid to show his allegiances to the all of those, 3 concerts in his home town stadium will inevitably help him & his clubs finances, what's not to like ? Who wouldn't do what he doing in his position ?

If the region is 70-100m, even 75-80m is good. But in fairness to Eddie Howe, he's doubled his money, but turned a radgie into an U21 winner, first team England International, and completely helped in the players character and maturity. You'd expect a huge fee given where he was and where he is now, it's not all just about what is done by the player on the pitch, he's a totally different lad now.

Happy transfer window opening day everyone!

It could be done similar to how we signed Hall, ie a loan for the first year and then the fee next summer.

Women's team?

Bailey to Saudi was mooted last week.

Wonder who Villa are flogging to balance the books.

It's not.

Agreed. Find the whole love-in a bit odd to be honest. He's seemingly a canny lad that makes passable pop music and supports Newcastle- fine. It doesn't have to be more than that.

This. I don't go out my way to listen to him or follow his every move, but who wouldn't love to see a local lad, "one of your own", do well for himself.

Think he's a young lad who isn't as mentally resilient as he likes to show (for obvious reasons). Reckon us trying to sell him - or him perceiving that - messed with his head and that's why he was shit early on. Then he got the love with the tifo and the contract and he went on a good run again. Then he fucked up and got sent off, everyone slagged him off and he went shit again.
