Now don't fuck this up!

Fuck's sake City, sort it out.

"Wembley's a shit hole, I'm staying in Hull" in the pub pre-match

Gaggle of mackem lasses at Central, all in identical brand new red and white scarfs and club shop carriers looking like they're off on a hen do. Must have bought all their new merchandise when they were at the ground for the Southampton game.

Hang on a minute. I laid £10 on them to win on Betfair and got 10/1. Are you saying this only counts if they win after 90 minutes? Yeah "To win" means to win the game in 90 minutes. You can bet separately on them winning in extra time, winning on pens or just to lift the trophy though any victory method.

Yeah, season's a dead rubber now and if we go full strength we might accidentally end up in the Europa League. Treat every game between now and the end of the season like a cup game. By which I don't mean in the way teams facing relegation claim every game is like a cup final, but just grudgingly turn up and put 11 players on the pitch. Depends on your point of view I suppose, some people have already said we should be trying things out over the remaining games. Chicken and egg, people are saying we might as well try stuff out because Pardew isn't going to use the remaining games to try and qualify for Europe anyway.

I'll be hungover on a train back from Hull, has the potential to be an unpleasant journey.

The only thing I do remember Brett saying in terms of trophies is using the argument "If Pardew won us trophies would you still all hate him". It might just be that mentioning Pardew and trophies in the same sentence implied there was some possibility in his mind that the two could meet, way beyond the wildest imaginations of your standard Newcastle fan.

10-1 is only to win in 90 minutes, you know if you put that on they'll do it in extra time or penalties just to leave you thoroughly fucked off and £50 out of pocket to boot. They're about 5-1 or 6-1 to lift the trophy.

Maybe next year we'll meet our target of 40 points by February and be able to give up on the season even earlier, we're getting more efficient all the time!

Poyet says he rested Cattermole because Mariner was the ref

Heard from a former player that HBA wasn't injured and neither was Santon though the latter was just rested whilst the former will be sold. So HBA won't play for the rest of the season because we want to sell him? Or we want to sell him because we don't want to play him.

This reads like a facebook post from Chris (Simpsons Artist)

We're not going to score another goal in my lifetime.

Fucking hell.

Premier League clubs prioritise the league over cups, but I'd be amazed if any other Premier League club hasn't been past the fourth round of either domestic cup since 2007 (including recent promotees). That's the difference, not how honest we are about it, but how much we aren't interested. As for his 'long term plan' and how we don't know how it's going to turn out, he started it nearly eight years ago. We know how it worked out long term. Turboshit.

I like Palace's tifo stuff, does that put me in a minority?

This is my feeling too, glad I've made a weekend of it rather than the bus there and back! Aye, we're going down on Friday, back on Sunday. Two nights in a Premier Inn in the City of Culture 2017.

Hull battering teams in poor form 6-0 and 4-0. Looking forward to going down there next week
