James

he still had interactions with people at our club however and we still had responsibility to look after him, he was our player. Was there cash betting at our club amongst players before his loan that he enjoyed too much? were players swapping tips via WhatsApp? were we not running suitable awareness courses? we may well have had nothing to do with it, but we are doing our young players in particular a disservice if when now presented with information that there might have been a problem at the club in 2016/17 we don’t investigate to ensure that this problem has now been eradicated.

Conversely we also sent Elliott Anderson on loan to play under a manager with a known gambling addiction/behavioural control issue. Was this appropriate?

Worth noting that Toney started doing this while playing for us. Many factors might have led to him doing this but the club needs to investigate and consider: a) Are there any malign influences within NUFC that encouraged this behaviour at the time in whatever way, be it a first teamer or a youth coach who is still at the club? b) is there a gap in the support that we give young players that still remains, which may have contributed to his alleged destructive behaviour? c) did we send him to a club on loan without properly vetting their dressing room? What vetting processes do we now have in place?

Didn’t someone on here make enough for a Florida holiday because someone at Spurs told him that Roeder was the new NUFC manager. Or have I recalled incorrectly?

Got to remember he was given a police caution for hitting a disabled child and the FA are investigating him. Hope they slap a 2 year ban on him

Imagine if the VAR calls in our ‘bad’ run actually cost us the title.

Howe: Constantly learning Bruce: Left school age 9

agree some people have started to say that 8th is a failure, many of whom originally ruled out a top-6 challenge. what we have done is shown we can compete. We haven’t shown we can compete all season yet though. But I think by showing the first part it’s a great platform to start with and this season is therefore already a huge success no matter what happens

Technically it was

NTL, Northern Rock, Wonga we seem to be associated with sponsors who go bust. Didnt Newcastle Brown Ale have difficulties too?

If Wilson can’t play I think I’d play Joelinton up front. he won’t have the same goal pressure as before and we need a striker who can run for this one.

Klopp will play close to first XI against City I reckon. Think they are now favourites

Only one left back. Burn should have gone instead of Dier or Coady.

Series 2 of Heroes later, hope it’s good.

Saved. Still 3-0

Penalty to Palace

Targett has just scored straight from a corner. 3-0.

Burn dribbles past three and hits a thunderbastard from 35 yards. 2-0.

Pope lobs the goalkeeper from 85 yards, 1-0

Kluivert and GHoeberX

Was taken off due to the illness so no worry there

it doesn’t. You just have to open the whole chart. We are mid table and below the average.

Imagine the scenes if Burn scored the winner in the World Cup Final

Or we may want to develop a training / conditioning plan for him that assumes he won’t be getting a winter break
