Actually celebrated that like a madman for about 3 seconds

Same, every time I see a video or photo on here I start welling up, proper soft shite I've been this last 24 hours. There'll be tears of pride and pent up emotion from me when they play the CL music before kickoff.

Wasn't it Bournemouth in the FA Cup where the match was called off due to fog, in the (first) Keegan years? Couldn't see the length of the pitch.
-
Wettest I've ever been at a match was the derby where Sellars scored the only goal at the Leaves end, it rained most of the match and the corner there (by which I mean about 20m x 20m of pitch) with the Millburn stand was actually submerged. Think I remember reading that the game was only played because nobody dared call it off.
-
Think I nearly shit myself with shock when I saw him put that cross in. Did he temporarily forget that's just for standing on?
-
Weghost can't cope with a football.

Relax, it's Burnley. A few days ago we shut out Man City with Dummett and Lascelles.
-
Double post. Seems he's so irrelevant I've not heard of him twice.
-
I have never even heard of him.

"I can’t see the ownership of Newcastle changing for 1,000 years." Fingers crossed, Bob! "Which clubs have the heritage of Newcastle? They are top 20 in the world, a special club." They'll ignore that bit down the road, I'm sure.... Unless they genuinely reckon they're top 19!
-
Yeah the Milan one was mildly amusing because of the chants from the last time we played there 20 years ago, but it needs knocking on the head now. Let's treat them like the irrelevance that they are.
-
Doesn't matter who we draw, just got to keep hearing them and we'll lift the trophy. Bring it on.
-
They definitely watch our highlights when we lose. I reckon our result is the key determinant on Wearside as to whether they switch that program on or not.
-
Given the reputations of both sides owners and their status as human rights champions, I bet that if you looked back on their forum to before our takeover they would have been rooting for us when we played Man City. Surely.

Paul Dummett loves a slide tackle.
-
Well that was fun whilst it lasted.
-
Isak "can" play in goal, but he shouldn't. He's our record signing and one of the most promising strikers in Europe. Putting him at LW is stupid when he's needed at CF and we have others who can play out wide. "Isak LW" seems to be the new "Schar / Coloccini DM". And it's no less stupid.
-
That's an absolutely insane stat. Woodgate was excellent, I had a season ticket then myself, but the brevity of his tenure here should surely preclude him being quite so high in people's all-time lists. Most of us watched at best a dozen of his games.
-
I think shirts should be designed to just tear apart really easily, make them out of something like crepe paper so that when someone grabs your shirt they're just left with a handful of material whilst you run off Firstly it makes shirt pulling almost pointless if it doesn't stop the player, but secondly there's clear evidence it has happened because the opponent is left holding half the shirt. Downside is that at least until people stop doing it, players will need about 10 shirts each per match.
-
Can you imagine a midfield duo of Coloccini and Schar? We'd win the league.
-
I mean I agree in general with your point, but his height didn't win that header. Even Peter Beardsley would've had to stoop to nod that one in.
-
Probably want a bit more than that for him TBF, especially as he counts as homegrown for the CL squad places.
