Players that were actually decent for us that are totally forgotten

Spawned one of the better back page headlines i've seen in Mirror Sport when he initially turned us down over wages "It's Paul Twitson" -

Same, apart from Quinny getting a late late equalizer in a shit 1-1 draw. That was probably the nadir of Fereday's time at the toon and that's saying something. He was Obertan before Obertan was even a thing. -

Another gem from 89/90. Wayne Fereday. Anyone who was at Oakwell to watch him and Ranson attempt a 1-2, only for the ball to just roll out of play to the utter scorn of the away fans hasn't lived. -

Mark McGhee. He was the lesser light of that front two with Quinn but had real skill and scored some fantastic goals. Have a bit of a soft spot for that 89/90 team after the shite of the prior season's relegation. -
Think we have a Palace fan who contributes occasionally, wonder what his take on this is and what the word in general might be locally Edit - @Palace fan probably

Excited by this lad like, his development looks amazing. I love a good LB, gives so much balance and so long as his defensive nous continues to improve, that alongside his passing range gives him great versatility. 28m could be a relative bargain. I remember summer of 92 when we signed Beresford from Pompey, he transformed that side of our team.

The thought of replacing Isak with someone like Sesko who looked like a heap of steaming tripe at the Euros (small sample size granted) fills me with dread. Isak guarantees 20+ goals every season, health permitting. He's dynamic and deadly, think we've barely scratched the surface with him. The only central striker I can think of who I could see coming in and doing close to as well would be Osimhen and it's highly debatable if we could attract someone like him without CL football at any rate. Think Isak is top 5 in the world tbh and got him at an amazingly opportunistic time and, with hindsight, at a bargain price really.

What a hopeless post, every daft cliche in the book

TCD's alt account tbh

Shady howeh man. Chelsea just sold physical buildings and their own women's team to themselves and you're saying our FFP deals were the shadiest? You make a few good points and the rest is just hypothesis, guesswork and hyperbole.

500 grand but free shipping thankfully

He came across very friendly and relaxed with everyone in the back to training video that was posted, seems a lovely bloke and can't wait to see what he's capable of with a full pre-season

10 minutes mate

He's a macekm mate
-
Aye he was doing canny otherwise, had me convinced he was a long-time Toon fan
-
Aye, tough nut to crack like. Most seem to manage it though. Who do you reckon we should replace the gimpy little worm with?
-
They've brought some stunning craic to the table, you have to acknowledge that
-
Do you not think you're getting a little excitable there? I know it can be frustrating at times
-
You've got us there mate. You telling it like it is in multiple threads has thrown me off my debate game.
-
Just telling it like it is again, he got a bit excited typing it out is all
-
a macekm? Haribo and wotsits for dinner? read a lot of Oscar Wilde mate?
-
Maybe the new mackems slavering all over the board today will piss off if he stays? Worth considering
-
Just telling it like it is like rutland and Novak the plank
-
That's all well and good but rutland said things were suspicious so I don't know what to believe now
