    Prefer to look at it as son of God.
  2. And put the same shade behind the badge too.
  3. yet people still wonder why Rafa doesnt trust him People aren't wondering that. They're saying Rafa should've played him over Joselu. The two are one and the same, though, aren’t they?
  4. His asset, unfortunately, he's perfectly entitled to set the price. History could end up showing she fucked up by not getting us while the going was cheap, instead of putting out stories in the media with some ridiculous % chance of us being relegated attached to them as reason not to bid higher (edit: 65% chance mentioned in a FT article back in December, which in fractional odds is 8/15. For reference Southampton are around that level now, being 4 points adrift with 4 games remaining and a worse goal difference than Swansea). They were both tossing about, not just Fat Mike.

    Just caught up. Oh my God
  6. You can give them the price of a ticket now. Train from London as well. Nice little booster coming WF's way!
  7. Just wanted to check in here to tell people that these lads are still £571 shy of their £3,000 target for their end of season display, despite some generous soul dropping £1,000 in a single shot. I've just stuck my tenner in after walking past St. James' on the way to work triggered me and wanted to remind anyone else who had intended to but forgotten that it might be time to do the same. Not affiliated with the group in any way and have done fuck all to help other than donating a bit every time they've asked, but I imagine they've got some epic plans for the Chelsea game and it would be nice if they could get the funds in the door quickly so they can get to work. I was massively hesitant about ever going back to SJP as long as Ashley remained, but the combination of Rafa, moving home and the positive energy that Gallowgate Flags brought to the ground last season played a big part in me getting a season ticket again. I've honestly been blown away by the efforts of what is ultimately a small group of volunteers. I'm in the Gallowgate and on a matchday it looks like a fucking ballache to be organising everything, and they're effectively sacrificing their enjoyment of kick-offs and the start of the game at the same time. They even stood up against Ashley a couple of times, risking everything they'd built. TLDR; Wor Flags are class and you should support them with a donation if you can! https://uk.gofundme.com/wor-flags-end-of-season-display

    So much this. Constantly dead by the time he comes off/the whistle blows.
  9. That’s not how things work.

    Rafa Benítez

    Seeing those drop after reading Caulkin’s bit was pure Seinfeld gif.

    More or less, but I think SteV was talking post-expansion.

    You really just have to laugh at them. Said it before, but we couldn’t ask for better rivals.

    St James' Park

    To be fair, given the cost and complexities involved in any future expansion, they'd need about 5 years of continuous sell-outs to justify it. If Ashley shifted we could easily do that. We probably can anyway, as long as Rafa’s here and we’re in the top flight.

    Caulkin is the boy.
  15. Absolute donkey. Never saw the attraction.

    We can sign both, and we probably should (or at least try to). Those two plus Dubravka likely won’t cost more than £45m, which is about what we spent this season on transfers and loan fees. Surely we’ll have more to spend next season. Right? We will, right?
  17. Now here’s one for yous. Has this run of form surpassed peak Tiote, yet? Can’t remember any other midfielders we’ve had in recent times who’ve been so good at breaking up play and keeping possession after the fact.
  18. I spent a lot of time on here defending Diame, like. I'm not trying to pat myself on the back or owt, my only real point was always that as poor as he was, he was still a better option than Perez in the #10 position at the time. I was only really saying to point out that he wasn't universally hated. There he is. Just tickled me, sorry!
