  1. People from on here gonna be stopping Shola on the street asking if he's Mike from the forum.
  2. @Mike Had you down as a bits man, tbh.
  3. Aye, good news this. Gonna be a valuable squad member for the next few years. Can play either side and think he'd also be quality playing the Willock role as the most advanced of a midfield three. Would hope someone like Diaby will be a target in the summer as the first choice RW but Miggy will be reliable as fuck there whenever we need him to play.
  4. Rashford clearly had a bit of a limp coming off but it seems very likely he just got a kick at some point. Probably have some mild bruising this morning and be fine for Sunday after a couple of days rest. Half chance they put him on the bench if he's also a bit jaded but I'd be surprised, he's such a key player for them and winning a trophy in his first season would be big for Ten Haag.
  5. I don't think there is a set plan after the game tbh Midds, much will depend on the result I suppose. Just gonna see what the more proactive locals among us suggest and follow them. Game won't finish til 6.30 anyway so if you're in around 7 I'd say it's very unlikely we'll have moved by then. We've a WhatsApp group if you want to join us there. At the moment it's mostly just me and Mike trying to sing in Geordie accents but will be quite useful come matchday, I'd say.
  6. We need to have all the overseas people go over for the same game next season.
  7. Obviously not going to change anything for the final, but I wonder if Howe will consider going for a 4-4-2 / 4-2-3-1 at times during the run-in. Bruno and Joelinton in CM, Longstaff the first alternate. Gordon and Almiron on the wings, Willock possibly in contention for one of those spots. Think you could send out a midfield four there that would be defensively very solid. ASM, Isak and Wilson then fighting for two spots up front. Isak could play either the more advanced role if playing with Maxi or he could play just off Wilson. Potentially gives ASM a bit more freedom when he's not as concerned with protecting the LB. Think it's worth considering given how the goals have dried up the last month. Obviously the 4-3-3 will likely be our main system but it would be good to be able to give teams something different to think about.

    You're trying too hard to be nice and it's unbecoming, frankly.
  10. Trippier is quality at appealing for offsides, if not playing people off.
  11. Surprised to see Anderson starting but think it makes sense, presumably Howe doesn't want to go tinkering with the system now with the final coming up. Huge game this, win would be massive for top four race while a loss would be a huge blow.
  12. Pint on me for the first person to disdainfully look at the waitress and tell her she's just an option.
  13. Actually if you have revolut I can send you the money for the ticket now.
  14. I'll be able to pay by Revolut, right? I'm not gonna have to take out cash or anything ridiculous like that?
  15. We've really pissed in their wallet with this deal.
  16. Think Blaze said we have our own waitress and we can order stuff from her to get at the bar for us.
  17. Sorry to hear that man, would have been cool to have some pints with you. Sounds like you're being a good brother, fair play. Hope your sister is able to get it turned around and there are brighter days ahead for her
  18. Christ that was quick feet to get that shot away.
  19. Rocker suggested Quay Ingredient in the WhatsApp and I can't see myself coming off it. 90 yards from my hotel to check in after and prime spot for a snakey photo right beside the bridge.
  20. If anyone else would prefer to go for a big breakfast around 10 or so instead of the lunch thing then myself and Decky will be doing that. Will be up at 4 to get to the airport so will need a proper feed a bit earlier than most of you lot. Any suggestions on good breakfast spots in the city centre? Anyone wants to join us then you're more than welcome too.
  21. Very first N-O meet-up was Union Rooms, is this really the same fucking place?
  22. Also Froggy hasn't posted very much at all since he went to Norway to meet Kaz. Just saying
