Sure it's a minor point in the scheme of things, but if you think that when using a public forum like Twitter to insult or poke fun at your rivals that it's not important to have things worded and formatted correctly, then you'll just become the object of derision yourself. Don't give them low-hanging fruit to come back at you with. If it was one comment, fair enough you can say it's a typo, but when the same comment is being copy and pasted day after day then it becomes even more important to make sure it's correct.

Can we sort the commas out on this? There's 3 commas in there, in 2 different formats, and neither are correct. Word then comma then space then next word. Sorry but it's driving me up the wall!

I didn't sleep last night thinking about this. Phoned in sick to work this morning. Feel it's barely worth carrying on, quite frankly.

They're a band from the 90s, not sure if they're even still going. They did some really good stuff, John Peel featured them on Radio 1 and they toured America with Green Day but just failed to break through to the big time.

The correct answer to "best cover" is Wuthering Heights by China Drum. Bonus marks for them being a Geordie band that nobody will have heard of... https://youtu.be/OBviQXfuu3c

They'd just announced over the tannoy that there'd be no more kneeling before kickoff

Someone tell them they're both correct.

Ossie Ardiles. As a manager, at least.

Quite impressive that they have - in just 24 hours - got a 32-page thread on why they don't care about the World Cup.

All beginning to sound like something rather quickly soured his feelings towards the club.... Maybe his mum went for a walk past the ground?

What even IS their best XI? Anyone want to have a go? Aside from Phillips, Catts4me and Hewlio Arca I can't even think who they'd try to pick. (Well, apart from Adam Johnson obviously :lol:)

Tbh we could probably (injuries aside!) put out an XI tomorrow who would beat their best: Wilson ASM Fraser Willock Shelvey Bruno Targett Burn Schar Trippier Dubravka ASM, Bruno and Trippier alone are on a different level to anything they could ever hope to field.

Didn't even spot that.

Some of the "classy" narrative might actually be good for them. Now that as a forum they have to publicly state that gay and trans rights are a positive thing, and that women should be treat like human beings etc, it might make a few of them stop being such utter Neanderthals.

Mackematics will dictate that anything we ever win from now on doesn't count because oil money. Clearly they have spent the last 20 years discounting all Chelsea and Man City's trophies too, of course....

The most hilarious part is they think they can get PIF to walk away just by screaming at each other on their weird little forum.

They count free tickets that are accepted, even if they're not used. They were known for doing this in the PL, hence their £9 ticket average when they went down. Ie if they manage to hand out 1000 free tickets in the street, that's +1000 on the gate even if everyone throws them in the bin. I mean it's just a blatant lie to say that's their attendance, when it's nothing of the sort. Utterly shameless.

"Joint biggest" I started writing out why they're clearly not joint biggest but really I'll just repeat this because a comment that stupid doesn't even need words:

I find it genuinely risible and ridiculous that anyone would even contemplate wanting our most skillful and most creative player out of the team. It's just laughable.

The thing I'll never get about the "6 in a row" stuff is that many of them seem to basically exist just to repeat this as if it'll have us all sobbing into our Sugar Puffs from now until we can rectify it, yet we beat them 5 in a row during the Keegan days and I don't think any of us even noticed? (I'm not even sure the 5 in a row thing is right, I think I've heard it reliably stated on here and it feels like it's probably true, but I can't even be bothered to check, that's how little I care)

I'm sure Spurs and West Ham fans are equally outraged. Or not, because they've got a modicum of common sense.

Nah, he'd be off the wage book then.

Even just 2 bottles of wine and I can't even kick my shoes off, let alone the wife.

Whatever the result today, these are shite. Clear as day why they're down the bottom of the table.

If the rumour is true, Pickford's going to be only human being in history to fully recover from Covid inside 24 hours. Always drops his arse against us, this would be his biggest bottling yet yet. Probably good for Everton though because I really don't rate him. Wild speculation time, but if Begovic comes in and does well, it might help their survival bid if he keeps the shirt. Be hilarious if Pickford being too scared to play against us cost him his place for Everton and maybe England.
