Totally forgot that Tonali played in that game.

Just got gooseys watching Fab's last goal there.

Why pollute the bit everyone is wanting to see with the bits barely anyone wants to see?

What's this shit interviewing Tavernier DURING the game?? 88 minutes ffs

Shite, that's awful news. Get well soon, Dazza!

You on the wind up? Aaaaaaa

Oof, what a way to find out you're not in the clique

Are there no group DM's?

It was his eye, I don't think it was a concussion sub.

was thinking exactly that

Haven't got a membership as I didn't bother this year. Just rinsed me, my partner and me fatha of £100 for last year and 0 successful ballots. If anyone has a spare I'd of course love to come. Also have a few Toon daft pals who'd probably play if we need any extra numbers.

Are the tickets already out and done? I've given up ever trying after last season's disappointments.

Aye definitely, I share those concerns and would love to get to the match / at least Shearer's. I know it's not really about the football but I'd love to get a good run about, if just to keep warm as long as you're thinking about it I'm sure you'll get it right.

I was of course talking about Branko

Is there a reason for the 90 minutes? Could bump up to 2 hours and have some breaks for the rotund amongst us.

Just counted and it's 32 (?) without the maybes. 4 x 8 player teams?

Just the one pitch? We going with 2 x 7+ player teams or trying for 3 teams?

In

I'm in! Will confirm with the lass tonight.

Bruno been pretty invisible since he came on. Does he know where he's playing? Perhaps struggling to adapt to Tonali.

Tonali's gonna need to do 90 mins on Sunday too he's too good.

You joking? That would be his main skill, breaking lines with confident possession at the back. We are awful under pressure here, it's clearly our weakness. We're fine (not great) at the top end, when Isak gets the ball we look dangerous.

This kit is one of the worst shirts I've ever seen.

I don't think he looked typical at all. Incredibly direct, great crosses, great pressing. Should have had a couple of assists and was immediately behind Welbeck ready to finish when he scored his first. Thought he looked miles ahead of our current options. I understand why he had to be sold, though.
