I agree with this, but I can't say I'm looking forward to such an overtly Saudi sponsor like Saudia. Give me a discrete Saudi government organization, sure, but Saudia? Cmannnn. Honestly, I think I'd even prefer they wrote it in Arabic, so I can lie to myself and pretend it's something nicer.

gonna see if this can get me some karma cheers

Amazon is a fantastic way to increase our revenue with a dodgy reciprocal agreement like. They pay us 500bn for rights to do a documentary, we spend 500bn buying all our supplies from Amazon. Books officially cooked.

aye there’s something oddly fantastic about seeing current players in retro kits

I’m all for his little arm waggly wing thing after his first forest goal being his celebration. Could be expanded on of course. Has a bit of the studger about it. Sturridge probably got some merch leftover than Isak could repurpose.

Perfectly feasible that Manquillo could go left back too. Just in case.

what is boris up to these days

Would be a pretty class heel turn

arms by his side, kicked at him from a yard away. Games gone. Commentators biased as fuck too.

Smart move keeping all the bigger names from having to spend time in Tangier though. Keeping them onside.

Aye he's still got 10 years left in him if he signs for Milan

Pope Trips Schar Botman Targett Bruno Joelinton Almiron Willock Gordon Isak or if willock is still unfit, longstaff. tryhard xi.

I actually have a save the date for a wedding on 14th October. In England. So could probably do that weekend or maybe the weekend before/after. If I can sell the concept of me going away for 9 days to the missus. Oh and it’s on her birthday.

(but also fuck that)

I still remember the atmosphere/relentless singing in L7 for Shearer's only managerial victory ever, when we beat Boro, where it felt for sure we were about to save ourselves from relegation Anyway, atmosphere was brilliant up there. I guess that was the official singing section at the time? Not 100% though, my brain is garbage. I've been to about two games since then, so I can't really comment on the atmosphere these days, but I don't see why the new ownership wouldn't do everything they could to improve the matchday experience. For those who want to stand/sing/shout, and for those who don't.

Be easier if one of you just marries him tbh.

Maybe we can start a fund where any US-based NUFC fan can apply for a financial support to aid with their travel expenses.

Commentator over here was touching on the 2nd goal being Karius' fault but couldn't hear the majority of what he said. Didn't think it was Karius' fault at all personally, although at the same time Pope has pulled out some worldies this season and you never know if he would've managed to tip it over/slap it away.

I guess this is just a fundamental disagreement on what you see as a competition. For me every spot on the team is a competition, even with a clear starter. There is always the potential for people to improve (or degrade...), and that's especially common with new signings. For all we know Pope could've been a bag of shit and Dubs would've waltzed back into the team. The immediacy of Dubs going just leave a sour taste, which wasn't helped by who he signed for. For whatever reason he and Howe musn't be best of friends too. So I'd rather we just sacked him off and moved on with the whole thing.

I don't begrudge him wanting to move on, but it's always a contest. Even if we're not talking a literal one-on-one fight to the death, they're still competing for a spot. Pope fucks up, Dubs would've been there breathing down his neck. Personally I'd give Karius the nod over Dubs, mostly because he's more of an unknown quantity. But it'll depend what we're competing for at the time. Last game of the season and we need a point for CL... aye maybe not the time to experiment.

Unreasonably annoyed by the Apple TV screen transition after replays. It’s a half second of a completely black screen with mls logo in the middle. No transparency at all. Takes up the whole screen. Feels very jarring.

4-0

5m quid per year by the sounds of it. To give some context of the gulf in income. Thanks to savvy businessman mike.

The Union stadium is in a town!

The people who have Adriano that high up... any chance you were big PES 6 players?
