  1. Hope this carry on doesn't put him off
  2. Any idea why at the top of the Matthew Harding stand there's about 5 rows of empty seats all the way across?
  3. If it's Mourinho I win a 500-1 bet from a couple of years ago so praying for that

    John Carver

    Stumbled across his Lindkin page. ____ I was appointed Caretaker Manager and then First Team Manager following the departure of Alan Pardew to Crystal Palace, inheriting an underperforming squad that had lost 4 of its last 7 games. The club was also experiencing a well-publicised and still ongoing period of turbulence involving the current ownership that saw fans frequently protesting at St James’ Park. Within this difficult environment I was able to secure the club’s Premier League status with a 2-0 win over West Ham United on the last day of the season, finishing 15th in the league and ahead of local rivals Sunderland.

    Steve McClaren

    I really think it's a matter of sack him now or we go down. We have Leicester away next, certain 0 points under McCLaren, therefore clearly stupid idea to sack him after that rather than now. Can you imagine the pressure on the Sunderland game? If we lose that it's game over. Sack him now, get someone in for Leicester and you never know, could sneak a point at Leicester or at least put in a performance. Then at least we are in a fresh position to go at Sunderland with replacement having been in for 10 days or so rather than just 4/5. I think they will gamble on a new manager bounce before the mackems (assuming a loss at Leicester). May as well just do it now.
  6. Noticed how he said "I lost". Now "we" as would normally be said.

    Sunderland

    He already admitted guilt to the first two
  8. I hated liverpool with a passion when Dalgleish was there and they bought Carroll off us. Probably rather they won this out of the two though.
  9. Has anyone tried this? It's essentially a stock market for players. So you buy shares in a player that you think is undervalued, make money when the value goes higher. You'll receive dividends if they are the Buzz winner on a certain day (eg. score a hat-trick) https://www.footballindex.co.uk I put £100 about 3 months ago and the portfolio is worth about £160. It seems pretty easy. Did things like buy Hazard and Costa when Chelsea were shite, Lukaku seemed way undervalued, Berahino too when he was sitting on the bench every week. It's not the quickest money maker but it works. Having said all that I'm now selling them all as I'm not convinced about whether this company will work out, they could go bust so I'm getting out whilst I'm ahead. I think i might wait to see if it really takes off and i might go back in for more once it's a bit more widely used. You have some execution risk when selling the players, in that you need someone to buy the shares in the player at that price. I've sold most of it already as a test to make sure it worked (took a couple days for them to be sold), put the rest of it up for sale now.
  10. How much are you willing to pay for the 18th in Marseille? I know of some €105 that might be going spare (would have to check if you are interested)
  11. Serious wankfest about John Terry right now
  12. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/35318133 Probably was posted a few weeks ago
  13. I think a reason many will have changed their mind is last year we were still scarred by Pardew, and then they'd appointed Carver for the rest of the season, so everyone was pretty fucked off. In my opinion we have shown signs of improvement in our style of play (if not the league table), and have more of likeable set of players.

  15. I fancy us to win this. Due a win, due putting a chance or 2 away, players will give it their all because it's against Man Utd and on tv. Plus Man Utd just aren't very good
  16. I'm going to this. My Emirates record is P8 W0 D0 L8 The two I've missed are when we've picked up points. This will be a bit defeat
  17. Feel sorry for Van Gaal, BT interviewer was a wanker there with the tone of his questions. Must be sick of it

    Aleksandar Mitrović

    He missed a sitter from one 2 days ago
  19. Are there any pictures or video of johnson celebrsting in front of the away fans? It must have been like when Adebayor did it against Arsenal.
  20. Is there any significance on the name on the tickets? There's a match i have tickets for that I won't be attending, I can't imagine that being an issue.
