  1. I'm amazed we bother scouting. We knew Bruce just wants cheap british loans. The scouting department seem to find great targets only for Charley to spend months working out we will never bid enough to get them and we end up going back to the shit british Bruce targets anyway. Case in point Choudhury. We could have cut out the wasted time and brought him in two months ago. I'd say it is lip service to the fans exploring the better targets but we already know they don't give a shit about that.
  2. We scouted via YouTube. Instantly hooked.
  3. In fairness to both the Longstaffs no one could have predicted Bruce would last this long. They probably hoped they would either get to play under someone competent here or the takeover would have happened. As it is they both just need to get out of dodge if they want top be playing at the top level in the future. Thought Sean looked decent in his cameo on Sunday. There is a player there in both cases but we won't see it under this regime. Go before it's too late.
  4. I am sure AC Milan will be back in for him.
  5. You know we are now approaching end game. Got the obligatory CL level players quickly out the way, down through top 6 youth players players rejects and through to the championship.. http://www.thehardtackle.com/news/2021/08/18/transfer-news-leeds-newcastle-and-wolves-battle-for-rob-dickie/
  6. I'm not against loans vs nothing at all. As ridiculous as the thought we don't have money to buy people is, we know we won't get any more spend under this ownership unless a bullet is against their heads. Still shocked we bought willock. The rate we have gone through decent loan targets to the absolute dregs is more alarming if unsurprising. It will soon be "they don't believe what's available is better than what they have" from "well placed sources". We will battle on with what we have, Bruce has full faith in the squad etc..
  7. The right back at RCB is pretty hip and trendy these days to be fair. Having a decent one, especially on the defensive side is important when you are playing solely attacking wing backs. No question Lascelles or Schar would have been better. Clark is unforgivable. Maybe he is trying to press home his point we need another defender. If shelvey tried the tactics weren't horrific, whether it's Bruce's or Jones tactics. As usual he didn't making the rest of our midfield overworked. They took shelvey off 20 mins too late. Ultimately putting faith in Shelvey, Clark and Krath was predictably misplaced.
  8. How many times does he have to let down the people that put faith in them before they release he is a lost cause. Think how much more effective Miggy and Hayden could be if they weren't making up for the spaces and mistakes shelvey creates by simply quarter arsing it. Has to be replaced.
  9. Dissapointing if not unsurprising how we have just surrendered trying the past 10 minutes. Literally just accepted the defeat from the 75th minute on.
  10. Amazing we leave our best two defenders on the bench and looks weak at the back.who knew.
  11. Is there a given reason we are playing a shite LB and our weakest CB with Schar and Lascelles on the bench? Shelvey blew his gasket after the first 10 minutes. Back to half arsed effort.
  12. U18s lost 8-3 to covid hit west ham. Setting the tone. 3-3 @ halftime. Must have been quite the talk in the dressing room. https://www.uptheclarets.com/astonishing-win-for-under-18s-at-newcastle
  13. Classy. Was nice seeing all the buzz and actual atmosphere, decent football if not excitement across the grounds today and yesterday. At least I can get back to normal and have all that nonsense sucked right out of me tomorrow. Back to reality.
