  1. The main source of my joy is Ashely gone. Being the richest club in the world will be a fun ride, for sure, but I've been doing loads of mental gymnastics to make this work for me. We have to be honest and put the whataboutism to the side: we are owned by a government and leadership with an atrocious human rights record. Sportwashing is a genuine, disgusting practice and people celebrating with SA flags and t-shirts need to take a look at themselves and what they are promoting. But the takeover itself is not the fault of the fans. I wish I had the integrity to walk away forever, but these past 14 years (with a few exceptions) has just left me a miserable husk of a fan. I fucking love football, but care only for Newcastle United, so I just want some joy and identity back. I will support the team, shy myself away from the ownership, but I will probably never be a proud Newcastle fan with this ownership, like I was pre-Ashley. The money aspect I don't care about. This is what football has become, and seeing the cheek from some other fans who suggest otherwise is amazing. The seethe is just spectacular. Edit: Reading more about Mohammed Bin Salman though, it does seem he's looking to reform their take on Islam and move the country in a new idealogical direction, but I have no idea how true this is.
  2. Lock this shit and hoy him out of town.
  3. 28 December 2009 Newcastle - Derby 0-0 Boring and cold as fuck. Next one whenever I'm next in town.
  4. Can't fucking wait til they switch the NEWCASTLE UNITED at SJP. Seethe everytime I see it in that awful SD font. Would be proper symbolic.
  5. Not liking Haydens attacking role. Makes me think he'll make way when Willock's in and Shelvey will stay as DM
  6. Just inverted the whole thing. Sponsor looks much better in white with black border.
  7. Last time I saw him play was when he was at IK Start in the Norwegian top division. He was an attacking midfielder then. Captain too. At 16. No idea what he's like as a defender. Hope this helps.
  8. Ashamed to say that despite my better judgmenet, it did peak my interest and reel me back in again ever so slightly. I'm just that desperate to feel something for this club. Guess it's exile for me again. Tara for now.
  9. Never knew how bad the whole Ricky Alvarez thing was. What an absolute shitshow.
  10. There wasn't a Welsh league when the clubs were founded so they joined the English league system. Goes for Wrexham and Newport County as well. Prob a couple more.
  11. Aye, the Royal League. Only lasted a couple of years in the mid-2000's. No one was bothered to pay for the TV-rights IIRC
  12. Yep, Napoli president wasn't so sure though
  13. I honestly can't recall Longstaff, Shelvey or Joelinton even touching the ball this half.
  14. First game I'm watching this season. I'm getting feelings that long have been dormant.
  15. West Ham are having an absolute Newcastle of a game Joe-fucking-linton scoring man
  16. I have never felt more deflated than continuously seeing Boumsong in the starting XI.
  17. Yeah, anything substantial that happens will be in the news. I'm oot.
  18. What is your stance on patricide?
