No way

FACT-TOPPER: CRonaldo scored more goals than that today.

He should have been booked.

This, it's one of my main interests alongside music and cinema but that's all it is really now - an interest. This forum's become the best thing about NUFC. I still follow what's going on, but I don't watch or listen to games or identify as a fan. I don't blame Carver - he is just your average fan, really. If the club has any chance to save itself (and FWIW, I don't think it does now) the fans have to change. The media and Ashley executed a perfect hatchet job on them. It's dead impressive objectively 1. Build up a 'delusions of grandeur' tag until the indigenous folk become too self-conscious to make a fuss about anything 2. Incrementally lower expectations until such time that any protest is meaningless once the TV deal kicks in. Funnily enough though, most of the fans still don't care enough to protest - or realise they futility of it, but inexplicably accept what is served rather than walk away. Stockholm'd to fuck

C'mon I know us fairweather cybertear-crying social media folk are supposed to be nice to the upstanding match-going folk but what reason is there to go that exempts you from derision...?

Support the lads!

Then spurs after that. 50k attendance

you have to laugh really

That's the only remaining disappointment for me.

Ipswich?

Let me tell you, I think he says 'let me tell you' more than 'look' or 'listen'.

Think I had WBA as a DNB on my accy. Oh well. Greater good I suppose.

Destroyed them

Welbz's has a nice little cameo.

Booked Henderson too for interfering the prat.

Ref gon' fucked up there

Poppadom hands

Looking at the ref as he goes down

Too foreign.

Arsenal are sumptuous man. Lucas really reminds of Kuyt somehow.

Thank fuck it isn't. I'm not fully weened off football, so I missed it today. Feels weird to be on a day which feels like Saturday and not have it.

Who could have ever imagined in the realms of possibility it could ever be so close when we were thumping them 4-1 and 5-1 for fun? Something fundamentally wrong with this...

Agree.

I was always of the understanding that the issue of the sponsors was the driving reason behind the change. Makes sense since it involves money. Don't think they give a toss about exposing bare skin to offended cultures.

Not the answer but one of my favourite things ever in football was when Paulo Sergio scored for Bayern, whipped off his top to give to a disabled fan but had another shirt on underneath. Think it was pre-bookings but I'd be interested to see what would happen if you did that now. The booking is only because the sponsor isn't being shown, so if there was another shirt on underneath then you're golden.
