"you'll see just what I mean"

The way he says that

Still don't agree with the myth that he didn't work hard for the team when he was out on the pitch.

And certainly in comparison to other dross we had out there over the same period.

Anyway, that's a whole other thing.

They don't mind a dive in the French league.

French refs haven't got a clue what's going on.

Ugh, just had the notification for the red card... This sounds like it's typically embarrassing and cringe worthy.

It's all about them pushing the brand. Think the music is used in the international TV coverage. They've gone in really hard on that in the last two seasons. New logos, that bright colour scheme, dropping the sponsor etc...

But again, no reason for it to replace any team's entrance song. Silly. If anything the weight of the "brand" lies in the history and traditions of the clubs.

I suppose it's inspired from the Champions League ceremonial. Just seems a shame to have it trample over a club's tradition.

I'm sure that's what he meant. Steve Harper must have told him the tale.

That goal and season seems like a life time ago.

Wow, that's a hell of a shout

Was on a Paris to Newcastle flight yesterday evening with what I'm pretty convinced was Florian Lejeune.

Is that possible with him being involved in the game today, or would the players have been together last night?

Do Gallowgate/Wor/Hyem Flags have the Che Hatem one going?

... They absolutely should.

What, Shearer is a Seinfeld fan also?!

What a hero.

Would be absolutely glorious if they dropped into League 1 like. Looks more of a realistic prospect with each passing week.

It's the bizarro version of doing a Leicester.

"Surely they won't lose again this week... No way can they just keep on going!".

Who would bizzaro Andrea Bocelli be?

And their white stripes are pristine!

Those who've seen the Palace goal; will it be Cabaye or o.g.?

Just seen it on the Twitter... Pretty garbage goal, but technically it should stand as Cabaye's goal.

Meh, another one of those players with amazing ability and quality but an insufferable and tedious cheat.

Seen them do the commentary for the YouTube football matches (there was one at the weekend), and they're a good duo. Don't normally watch the podcast but I'd imagine he's normally more involved this was just True Geordie's lifelong dream coming true.

So just a big bullshitter, really!

Picked up on that also, I've heard him talk about the incident before and speak about Souness, so must have just been a brain fart.

He also did say he had a bad memory

Liked Winks willingness to try and pass through the lines tbh

Good job they've got him into the international set up early then. Need that coached out of him!

Harry Winks getting a game for England aftee a hanful of games mainly as sub for Tottenham says it all. Shelvey and Hayden deserve a crack befors him as does almost every English midfield player in the top two leagues (apart from Colback)

Love a good gratuitous Colback putdown.

Right on cue:

For those who didn't catch the True Geordie thing, like myself, the video and podcast should appear later today.

Looking forward to it.

Call it True Flags

The good news is that he's been exposed (again), and you'll be better off without him.

What you guys have achieved is fantastic

Of course it's that Michael Martin tool creating needless drama.

Just keep the name.
