Cavani 1st Cavani and 1-0 FFS!

Gobshite gobshiteing again! He wrote on twitter: "I would be pretty sure at this stage of the transfer window less than 10 percent of player signings have been made - there are still lots of players on holiday and hundreds still available. The player movements will start soon I am sure. We have offers out and lots of targets!" Donald also had short shrift for suggestions that Turkish side Besiktas are preparing a two-year loan deal for Wahbi Khazri. With Khazri's Sunderland contract expiring at that stage, it would essentially be a free transfer. Donald said on twitter: "Unless we get a decent fee he will be back here playing!!" Khazri is being tracked by a number of French clubs after a successful season with Stade Rennais. He is expected to be fit for Tunisia's opening World Cup game with England on Monday.

Just read that FFS - complete and utter joke yet again. Just walk Rafa and let the club burn as it deserves to under the current wanker of an owner https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/rafa-benitez-learns-could-shop-14783650

Superb touch for the 2nd!

Smolov first 5/2

Uruguay, France, Argentina, Brazil, Germany to win their groups – 5/1 Saudi Arabia, Iran and Panama to finish bottom – 3/1 France to win it – 6/1 Griezmann top scorer – 12/1 Griezmann top scorer and France – 40/1 Duel forecasts in each group - all favourites - 125/1

Few reports now suggesting he asked to leave in January so he surely mustn't have settled here?

Class responses!

Yep - Rafa said exactly that recently about signing players off a good tournament! As ever, it’s the piss-taking wank-splash of an owner

https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/uncomfortable-truth-newcastle-uniteds-transfer-14780261.amp?__twitter_impression=true "Newcastle United are yet to make a single bid for a new face this summer - despite the fact that pre-season training starts in just 19 days time"

Any idea when that is?!

24/1 surely then?! Would be 18/1 I think? Probably get Messi at evens, Ronaldo at 2/1 and Kane at evens as a minimum, with that I said above as a max. IMO Aha sorry pal - I was just using your odds!

If anyone backed Spain on PP then you have a free bet of whatever stake to gamble with!

Yep I'm sure they were too!

Ha ha ha WTF?! Well done MAG Byrne!

Is anyone worried about the vacant Spanish post? I'm not as I think his football obsession wouldn't be able to cope with basically a part time national manager role! He needs to be on it 24/7!

24/1 surely then?!

Promotion is a must with the signings - an unbelievable turnaround from just 16 months ago when things looked horrific! https://www.shieldsgazette.com/sport/football/non-league/community-shows-support-for-struggling-hebburn-town-fc-1-8398075

Another quality signing for Hebburn! http://www.hebburntownfc.co.uk/2018/06/12/andrew-stephenson-becomes-latest-to-join-the-club/

Like the rest of the stadium it's been largely neglected over the past Decade. The bar area and food are pretty poor and the cushioned seat I had was missing big chunks out of it. Surprised people don't complain considering what they pay to sit there. This. A mate went to see the ginger with his lass over the weekend and it was his first time at SJP since Bryan Adams 10 years ago and he couldn't believe how much it has deteriorated - shameful really.

Some of the patter in those links man :lol: :lol: Please never change, mackems!

Any reason why the opening match changed from featuring the previous winners to featuring the host nation at Germany 06?

Odd considering their current mantra. Wow! That is glorious!
