  1. Dreadful is being nice. To put it into perspective - we ended up with 42% possession. Away from home. That said we did look livelier than I remember last season. But still; woof.
  2. Could Vicky really be back after so long? Ohhhh how I've longed for this day
  3. PL answers to the FA. Who is the president of the FA? That's right. Prince William. Did MBS call in a favor? The Big 6 Media would tell you that's rubbish but the fact is yes it 100% did happen. Expect more oustings.
  4. it's difficult to play internet rules lawyer productively when we don't have access to what was requested of and what was presented by PIF/Stavely/etc in accordance with F.whatever in the process.
  5. I was going to ask if you'd think he'd be so negligent to sanction the spending prior to the deal going through... then i remembered how he bought the club in the first place :lol: it's so fucking plausible and hilarious because it'll fuck him.
  6. imo it's just Ashley trying to force matters because 2nd lockdown is going to obliterate all his remaining cash
  7. Didn't formally reject it you say? Was the statement not run by legal before issuing? y'know, for some basic questions like "is it libelous to say this?" and "is it factually accurate?" :lol:
  8. is "3 sheets to the wind" an archaic phrase? what do the kids say these days?
  9. Doesn’t fit with Caulkin’s cryptic tweets though. I'm also 3 sheets to the wind at 5pm on a wednesday, I wouldn't sweat that post too much
  10. Frankly I think the whole thing is theatre from all parties: PL don't want to be seen as being complicit in "sportswashing" so they couldn't approve. An immediate rejection ran the risk of being resolved before the season started and we would have become too strong. A deal was struck between PL, PIF, Stavely, RB, NUFC et al that the PL would dawde until it was too late and then reject However, the deal also outlined that the PL would now hand over (guaranteed) approval to the appeals committee, an even more opaque and impenetrable group/process, thus saving face The Big Six shadow cabal has approved this plan of action and the 2020/2021 season script setting up for NUFC ascension is wild.
  11. What's he fucking saying there I can't make heads or tails of it
  12. Aye, our "one out one in" policy really tended to skew to seeing the outs go well before the ins came, if they did at all. This is strange
  13. might be some heartbreaking sale being done in secret that'll fund it tbh.
  14. nothing will ever be wilder than bookending Rafa's tenure of austerity with sprees for actual real life goblins McClaren and Bruce.

    Jeff Hendrick

    They were in Bulgaria.
  16. What fucking shit reality are we in where that dongwhiff is involved in any deal for any club ffs. fucking hilarious picture of him on the wikipedia page though height=550https://i.imgur.com/6kXBFWK.jpg[/img] Like a shite figurine of a newly discovered underclass of orks in Warhammer 40k.
  17. Bruce is a chicken dish from an upscale steakhouse - troubling, confusing, a bit out of place and ultimately unsatisfying but not actually poisonous. Pardew is a hippo shitting into a warehouse fan that you're strapped in front of clockwork orange style.
  18. there is a point there - if you're at least spouting original material people don't mind the shit posting as much. but recycling the same 1 gag for 300 years just builds contempt.
  19. Overdoing it now, just like your steak. Badum tisch. I assumed he was mistakenly talking about steaks when he originally said done in 14 days.
