HawK

Tracking finishing position of all clubs since the beginning of time really, lower the number the best (1 being winner of the top league). The link has the full sheet.

Probably a selection from these 30 I'd say, that's the all-time cumulative table, ref. https://drive.google.com/file/d/18fQMECa2VBbogBXDSElqTvnqOkJ6YUbE/view?pli=1

Aye, got that vibe too. Paraphrasing : 'We're never going to get every transfer right... I'm not talking about Lewis specifically... just.. in general'.

Last 2 games we've played Longstaff and Miley behind Bruno

Aye it'd be like the 41st time in the past 5 games. Bit different.

Neither Longstaff nor Miley available for our defence to play it out, sort it out lads I called this weeks ago

We're doing the Longstaff/Miley double pivot again with Bruno in front. Nice to see.

Ashworth asleep in the crowd. Probably been injected with horse tranquilizers by Tindall

Regardless, pleasant change it's not us

Heart in my mouth as Barnes is taken out

Dubs no parlez football

That's a sizable jump, hopefully we should be able to maintain that with the Adidas deal coming in to offset the lack of CL next year. The growth won't be fast enough for some but with all the red tape being chucked at us I don't think we're doing too bad.

We have very involved owners via Stavely et al, I wouldn't be surprised if the rumblings from Ashworth about not having as much control as he wanted were true. He would have had much more control at a pre-Ineos Man* Utd where the owners were effectively absent. Edit: the shame

Top-tier squad player imo, pleased with this.

But.. but.. think of the compensation fee, it's free FFP money!!

On the other hand, probably only one of those 6 players would make the team if we had a full squad to choose from.

It's a shame that Howe seems married to this flat 4-3-3 approach becoming a 3-4-3 in possession. I'd like to see Longstaff in the hole further ahead of Bruno. As we seem to continuously struggle with the gap between midfield and defence and no single player seems suited to the role, stick two of them there. Personally I think Longstaff could show a lot just behind the striker, bit of a Kevin Nolan in terms of his ability to be always in the right place at the right time. As he offers little else in possession other than his goals as he rarely seems to know what he's going to do with the ball until after he gets it, it'll at least work to his strengths. Applying his pressing high up the pitch behind Isak/Wilson would also take the pressure off either striker to do so and keep their energy up for when we do have the ball.

He's nee Haris Vuckic yet, mind

Floaties where I grew up

Aye we're all grown ups here - we clearly hold different values and that's OK. Agreed on the complaint being the catalyst for the ban, the club was put in a position and it acted. Not sure how much you read of my previous responses, but I do also think everything that's she written is abhorrent, just want to make that clear I'm not condoning her actions or views.

Except, it is different in UK law. Of course NUFC have a right of refusal as any private company does, but are you happy for NUFC to be the arbiter of what views their supporters are allowed to hold in order to attend games? Let's not forget who owns us and where this might lead. 4th sentence - yes I've been over this already.

Aye I don't like it, look how wrong 'clear and obvious' became in terms of VAR. I think if dissent or abuse to the ref was a an automatic yellow, the cynical fouls would almost take care of themselves (if still yellow) to a degree as players are going to be on more yellows anyway, at least in the short term.

Popped this in a spoiler for those who really don't want to read about this shite
