His age isn’t really a factor. If he was 32 and could stay fit he’d be ideal for a rotation with Isak and Osula.

Colo can cover the CM.

I guess some people don’t think his role was pivotal. Need to say regularly though, I like how much he cares and tries. Maybe too much sometimes. He just can’t play football very well sadly.

I have faith in you mate, don’t let me down.

Said before I really like Joe White from what I’ve seen. Elegant mover and great balance, sharp and neat passing. Dunno if he has what it takes to make it at the top level but he’s a nice player.

I’ll buy your ticket if you win then. Deal

Ah fair enough, I seem to remember last time they were ahead. But may be letting my bitterness cloud my thinking

You may as well enter. There’ll be a tiny amount of tickets for non-ST underclass.

I’d much rather have Osula train with Isak, Wilson and Howe than go out on loan. I think so anyway.

The only thing that annoys me is ST holders who didn’t go to cup games being ahead of members who did go. But that’s the nature of ST ownership I suppose. And the number will be small. I also think ballot entry would be a better metric than attendance. Since attendance is partly down to luck.

Surely 95% of ST holders opted in to the cup scheme anyway?

He’s not perfectly capable, he’s pretty low quality. But I agree with the rest. If it was up to me I would probably sell, but I understand the argument for keeping him. I would ideally like someone really experienced if Trippier leaves, like Wolves did with Moutinho. But I’m guessing we won’t be thinking like that.

I always just want the worst team possible, so I guess Man Utd at home.

I was with you until that bit.

Hopefully we can do better than conceding 2, we have plenty of time to rest and prepare.

Think calling that team Liverpool is generous

I know what you mean but it feels mad that he would cost anywhere near what those two cost, given he’s twice as good as either of them and proven in the PL.

Only way to get him at a 'reasonable' price is when his contract is nearly up. At the moment I don't think he's affordable for anyone. Maybe if he went on strike and demanded a move or something, but I can't see that.

I don’t remember Collymore being that fast over longer distances.

Hopefully retirement is his next stop after another 10 years at Newcastle.

He’s been outplayed by Blackburn, Bromley and Birmingham players in recently memory.

Maybe they thought Man Utd were defending.

I owned it at the time, but the colour combo is awful.

Significantly cheaper than the train from Newcastle.

I know what you mean by this for nostalgia reasons, but objectively that’s a horrific kit.
