Then Rafa out IMO

To be fair, it's not like he'll answer a leading question like that in another way. Maybe people would respect a player more if he was 100% truthful. "I'd never even heard of Rafa Benitez before this week. My motivation to sign for Newcastle United was purely financial." ... maybe not.

Probably get more money being an average RB in the Champo than a reasonable midfielder in a less physical* league on the continent. * hoofball dominated

Don't be daft. It's going to take six weeks to get here no doubt. That's the standard protocol anyway.

Most lucrative TV deal ever and were still digging in the bargain basement. And people don't even mind What a club.

think the suggestion would be that it'd limit his relentless cut-price stevie-g diagonal balls

Oh god. The GeodieDazzler seal of approval. Am getting a photo. :'( RIP $19.

Honestly we've got a person in here arguing that homophobia isn't a problem. Fucking CLASS.

RIP. You mouthy git.

New Home Shirt... $19.... Aliexpress... Just found it, and they only show a pic of the back of the shirt. Probably just some random non-branded black and white striped footy shirt. Y'all clearly aren't very experienced in procuring Chinese snides. This is standard snide site etiquette, and has been for many a moon.

It's possible... But my guess is it's the exact same shirt that Mikey makes 500% profit on.

Ordered a Newcastle United Jersey from aliexpress for $19.... I'll let you know what it looks like in August. Assuming it arrives by then. It has a sponsor, which I may try and hack off.

Loaning from Liverpool sickens me.

Aarons is donezo here. Fact.

Yes. For something that came with your NBC cable package until now. Now you need both an NBC package and this additional $50. Cheapest way you're getting NBC Sports is probably a $30 pm online streaming package, more likely way is through a cable TV package that'll end up running you at least $60 pm, but those numbers are hard to realistically quote given you normally "bundle" stuff together. My biggest issue with this isn't even the price, it's the ridiculous fragmentation of it all. Just let me pay a single fucking fee, and open a single fucking app. NAH.

Having found out that televised games will not be streamed on this service, I have already reversed my decision to not call NBC cunts. Cunts.

Aye I didn't realise that the streaming service wouldn't have the TV stuff on it. That destroys the whole thing. I wasn't too upset until that.

from a recode article ... NBC’s announcement comes on the same day that Facebook announced it will stream more than a dozen matches from the Champions League — a sort of all-star European soccer tournament, which also features Premier League teams — this fall for free, in conjunction with 21st Century Fox, which owns the rights to that tournament.

Also, I don't actually have NBCSN, as I don't have cable, so in theory this is the kind of thing I'm looking for. Pay for the shit you actually watch.

This is annoying, but if they come back with a streaming site that isn't total dogshit, and apps across all of the deviceses, then I'll grin and bear it.

looked like a confident man stepping up to that like

Yeah, I remember at the time people giving him loads of stick. always baffled me. I think people were on his back when he started moaning about being played out of position, and his performances had dropped as a result. Of course it was entirely down to our genius then manager, but that's besides the point. He was indeed our most complete striker since Shearer, and if we'd had a manager with a brain, we could have easily sustained a spot in the top 8 with someone like Ba leading the line. We were powerless to stop him leaving, he had a buy out clause in his contract. Which we gave him, no doubt in exchange for lesser wages than he really warranted.

is that a target target?
