  1. Agreed. They've had all the possession but haven't been overly threatening.
  2. Yup, he's been great since Howe has started him.
  3. Agreed, but we're never going to get a call like that.
  4. If there was no VAR, I'd have thought Lacelles was a donkey for sticking his leg in there.
  5. He's the only player who can run at speed with the ball at his feet. He's frustrating because of the bias you develop wanting him to make a Ben Arfa like mazy run wonder goal. I'm in agreement with @GWN in that he needs to be more fluid with overall team play, but most of our players end up watching him dribble into another player than providing an outlet to move the ball up the pitch with him.
  6. No doubt, meant more towards us not being able to string a few passes together. Would love to have most of their top players in a Toon top.
  7. Thought Willock's best game was against Burnley. Still nowhere near the force he was last year, hopefully a goal will wake him up and give him the confidence he needs to turn it around.
  8. Aye, not sure why he irritates me as well? His neck tats and naff beard perhaps? Great footballer, though.
  9. @healthyaddiction was that actually disclosed via club comm's? I mean, it definitely seems that way putting 2 and 2 together.
  10. Has there been a player who's had long COVID or severe setbacks? Darlow is who comes to mind for us. That could be down to our crack pot medical staff and them treating it with some Vicks and a lolly with a pat on the heed.
  11. I'm with ya, but set's a precedent you just know we'll be on the losing end of at some point.
  12. Leicester oot the Europa, Pekhart has the penalty saved for a wild ending in Warsaw.
  13. Der Führer Barton has dissension amongst his Reich?
  14. If that reality happens (it won't), then we should be asking major questions why our corporate governance hasn't been installed and given a considerable operating budget and capital towards on field improvement.
  15. Amen ??! It is time for this club to be run with an executive branch that will realize it’s potential, mature it’s commercial viability and foster a winning culture as an organization. That will not happen in the span of 8 weeks, which apparently isn’t good enough for some on here. I have full faith that we will be a billion dollar club (on our own, without PIF) in 5-10 years.
  16. I dumped his channel views into an engagement tool I have at my disposal. He's made $11k over six years from the platform.
  17. Still, even at 2.5 months, CEO's don't appear out of the woodwork, mate. Chelsea's CEO, Guy Lawrence, used to run the biggest Telco here in Canaduh. I'm currently employed by EY, so maybe I have the other bias of seeing the value in my work as a consultant.
  18. What? Every corporation under the sun uses consultants. We have TWO Directors who have any sort of business acumen, how the fuck are they supposed to do everything overnight?
  19. The Bonk

    Rafa Benítez

    Regardless of recent form, I think they'll easily be top 10 by May.
