  1. Was wondering if we should do one of these but drop the quiz element. Just a general NUFC discussion on current events. Happy to chair it so everyone gets a say and not spoken over if indeed that’s needed.

     

    Nothing at all to do with my poor showing in these quizzes :lol:

     

    Aye I like this idea, be a bit more sociable. If you're happy to moderate and we agree not to interrupt each other would work well IMO

  2. It’s basically like you can see, smell and feel the fresh air of the light at the end of the rancid sewer tunnel still flecked with shit all over the wall and floor, and some self-important bouncer has turned up and put a velvet rope juuuuuuuust in front of the exit because they want to have a real thorough look at your ID despite the fact you’ve not looked younger than 35 for about 10 years.

     

  3. Is anyone else still just thinking "na this ain't happening", despite all of the reports to the contrary?

     

    I mean I just cant allow my brain to believe that not only will we be rid of MA but we might be filthy rich too.

     

    Yes. I’m not buying into anything before it is official. But I do like the excitement.

     

    No, I’m like dick on the table excited and a total believer in the towel.

  4. the shelvey hate also seems odd to me, he's not perfect but hes been a solid enough player for us

     

    I think it was in reference to some quotes attributed to him saying that the lads were enjoying training more under the new “gaffer”

    why would this suprise anyone? Rafa's never exactly been loved by players respected sure but I'd imagine Bruce's training sessions are a lot more enjoyable than Rafa's. As good for the team probably not

     

    What's he supposed to say? "To be honest, the training is shit now. It was much better under Rafa, as I am sure you could have all predicted, so yeh we're definitely at a disadvantage now". I'm sure he was asked a generic question about life under Bruce or current life at the club and just gave a generic positive soundbye answer. Love a bit of wor Jonj.

  5. Whats with the weird hate for Shelvey like, hes been a decent servant for us? :lol:

      I asked the very same thing months ago.  The replies were very childish with no substance or evidence of their hatred towards him.

     

    Aye same boat - he's a long way away from the worst of our problems. Can be a dick sometimes but can also be a matchwinner. Probably been more productive under Bruce because he gets to play more. He was benched for ages under Rafa and never complained, when he scored that beltasaurus rex against Fulham in the last game of last season he sprinted the length of the pitch to celebrate with us - to me looks like a guy who likes playing for us and over the 5 years or so we've had him he's not really caused anywhere near as much bother as we were told he would.

  6. I really needed a good half hour to sit and think about some of those questions.

     

    Especially the inter Milan players 2002/2003 champions league group stages. Francesco Coco! That’s like from the Lamine Diatta vaults of footnote players.

     

    I was going to put Coco, but I stupidly didn't ask whether it included trial players or not.

     

    I thought it must have meant a trialist because he specified friendlies were included. Still got it wrong like

  8. Thinking about it I'd probably need to do it in maybe 2 groups so some questions could overlap and I could use the same General Knowledge ones twice otherwise I'd need about 500 questions for General alone. :lol:

     

    :lol:

     

    To be honest I wanna see it done now

  9. I mean it’s really to answer: “not everything is black and white (pun well intended)”. It is like literally almost everything in life; something can be simultaneously good and bad. It’s possible to both enjoy and criticise without having an identity crisis, aneurysm, troll boner, student essay contest or panic attack.

     

    We knew Shearer kicked Neil Lennon in the head and most of us probably admitted at the time it was a horrible, nasty and disappointing thing to do. He was still our hero and still gave us lots of happy times. I both enjoyed his work but was able to criticise other aspects of his work.

     

    My fucking word, Susan.
