I think I read somewhere it’s about keeping the preparation as normal as possible, so not training in their ground etc.

Aye. Put your tops back on lads.

Yep. Engineering contact has been part of the game for as long as the game's been played. We coach players to run across the line of the chasing defender and to turn their back to the opposition to shield the ball, knowing there will be contact. Using your body position/momentum has always been part of the game.

Looks like some 3G laid right next to real grass

Couldn’t stop looking at his hair.

That’s utterly ridiculous.

They were #obsessed with him signing for them for about 3 years.

That N’Zogbia thing was hilarious.

Performs for Brazil but not NUFC. Worrying.

I’ve had a shocker here

Fair enough, I did say anecdotally, my research is flawed!

I think this game gives the lie to those who talk of a 70,000 seat stadium. Anecdotally, everyone I know who applied got a ticket.

Fancy us to win, it’d be very Eddie Howe to blow them away.

Thought the question about which taxi company I’d use if i was in Blyth was a bit weird.

Pubs are ok but I hate watching football there, it’s a miserable experience. I want to actually watch the match and hate it when people talk to me

My order of preference: 1) SJP 2) Front room 3) Kitchen 4) Bedroom 5) Bathroom 6) Shed 7) Disused bus station 8) My old high school 9) At work 10) The pub

Out for the season.

Feared the worst when I saw him land awkwardly, fingers crossed.

I won’t be able to watch this FFS.

Got draw written all over it IMO.

You may have slightly overplayed your hand there.

Isak’s the player in our squad most capable of creating a goal from nothing. The Wilson sub is clearly pre-planned because it’s repetitive now. DGAF if Wilson’s miffed being dropped TBH, we shouldn’t be conceding the initiative in any game to keep players happy.
