Crowd full of day trippers tonight. Utterly pathetic atmosphere for such an important match.
-
Atmosphere is utter shite here mind.
-
Blatantly obvious now that the 3 points against us will be the ones that keep Everton up. And we really need a draw as an absolute minimum on Friday or the nerves will really start to jangle.

Realistically are they going to beat one of Wigan Rotherham or MK Dons over 2 legs? I could see them doing one of them in the final or 1st leg, but over 2, I can't see it.
Anyway, still think its Sheff Wed who go up in the playoffs.
They will definitely beat Wigan because they seem to have their number. So we need Wigan to avoid the play-offs. If they meet Wigan in the final then they are going up.

Let's go Burnley on Wednesday! If Burnley win Everton might actually go down.
Their win over us will be the one that keeps Everton up. Sickening.

The mere fact it’s in the Parsnip section means they want it hidden
They will probably hide the other one too once one of their lurkers of this place reports it to the mods.
In fact I wont be surprised if they delete them, just like they did the 5-1 match thread. Fucking cowards.

Don't think you have copied the full link mate as it's asking for you to be signed in
Ah, just noticed they have put it in the Parsnip section and you have to be a member to view that section. I've actually been a member on there for 23 years and in my formative internet years just posted endless pisstaking but it all got a bit boring after a year or so.

This was the follow up thread, by the way... https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/nufc-august-2020-they-thought-they-were-the-richest-club-in-the-world.1524984/
The title alone tells you what their current outrage is all about.

Anyone know where the link is to when our takeover was supposed to have fallen through and their reaction on rtg? It was posted up here not long ago but can I shite find it.

To be used whenever anyone comes out with shite like "Aww, I feel a bit sorry for them now".

The original is much better than his effort. Not that I want it changed in the slightest, but if I did, I'd go for a more radical redo than his thing.
I'm no expert in this stuff, but I don't understand why 'digital times' mean images need to be less detailed and more homogenous. And fuck it, if we're going to be the richest club in the world, presumably we can afford to stand out from the pack and develop imagery around aesthetic ideals and luxury, rather than being pushed around by marketing budgets and design graduates.
Re Shearer's, on one hand, I agree with @manorpark. Respect to the owners for trying to clean the club and restore it to better times. I think they're doing their best.
That said, I never thought Shearer's should've existed in the first place. It was a huge sign of the club going in the wrong direction fast at the time, with Freddie Shepherd clinging on to selling a fading cult of personality alongside Graeme Souness rather than developing the fundamentals of the club as Robson had wanted to.
It was the kind of thinking that brought us Michael Owen and proper football. In a roundabout way it was one of the things that set us up as marks for Mike Ashley to later target. December 2004. Bad memories.
Couldn’t agree more. I have never been a fan of it being called Shearer’s and actually preferred it being called Nine Bar. It was one of the few things that Ashley did that I agreed with. I don’t think a player or manager should be celebrated in any part of a stadium with renaming etc until they have passed away, to be honest. -

Back to the Magedia https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/bbc-newcastle.1575110/
Does nobody else think we are being sold short by our Regional BBC Radio Station.
Newcastle fans can listen to every game on the premium FM network.
We get FM when nufc and nufc u23s are not playing.
We are told there are ways to listen to the SAFC games by DAB and TV 719.
If this is such a good alternative why don't nufc fans have to do this?And another reply
Not just radio, but our friends at Look North also. On a Monday they show interviews with Howe and Wilder and then we are afforded exactly the same air time as Hartlepool, Harrogate etc, with all due respect we are the joint biggest club in the region but we're nothing but a lower league afterthought. You can bet your bottom dollar if it had been the mags in our position they wouldn't be getting treat like second class citizens.
I love that they are still in this state of denial. In truth, the last time they were joint biggest club was pre-Keegan in 1982. They've been in our shadow since August 1982 and have been trying to get out of it ever since.

Realistically, of any player from Man Utd outside of the obvious who is Lingard, I think 50m + could prize Rashford away and I think he’s probably contemplating life away from Old Trafford right now.
Rashford is barely worth half of that. He has already peaked and is not a world class player. I dont want him and would be properly mortified if we paid that for a player of his calibre.

Wonder what this means for NUFC’s ability to do commercial deals?…

Burnley have to beat Everton on April 6th now, to be fair. If they dont then they will start to look properly doomed. I hate wanting the Scouse Mackems to win a game but yesterday and tonight has made it that way.

40/60 going down/staying up?
40% chance of going down. We still look more likely to stay up but this week's results have put us back in the mix when we looked all but home and dry just a week ago.
-
Back up to a 4 after that Leeds win. Rename the thread, we aint finishing top half.
-
Change the title back.
-
A quick look on their forum and they are treating it like it's their biggest game for decades. This would normally mean a guaranteed home win against the NUFC of the past. Please, please let the new NUFC reverse that trend.
The first 20 mins of this game could well decide the outcome IMO. We need to be very sharp out of the blocks.

How is this our biggest test compared to Chelsea away??
Mainly because Chelsea was a free pass and not really that important. We are going into this one with some expectancy and its also against a relegation rival.

I'm nervous.
The team has done a lot to reverse some of my negativity (Brighton/Southampton) but I just feel this is huge for both teams.
We win and I'd say we are 100% safe even if we only picked up some draws here and there. Just hope Howe has kept them grounded and focused on the game and not the event.
Goodison is going to be like a bear pit tonight, and it'll either spur them on or they will wilt. We have to do a job by keeping the crowd tamed but not get swept up in it!
I'm going with a 1-1, and I wouldn't be upset.
Same here. I'd be ecstatic with a win here but it's surely going to be our biggest test so far this year. I really hope we aren't complacent tonight.

Daft fuckers are trying everything to convince themselves we are going to be sanctioned like Chelsea. They’re looking for every link between KSA and Russia.
Ukraine has re-energised them as their spirit was definitely draining prior to that. Now the current events will allow for the same 10000 NUFC posts per month as in November and December.

One thing though, those selfies of the team in the dressing rooms after a win need to be knocked on the head, they're small time as fuck.
I guess you think Klopp's air punching to the Kop after each game is small-time too? Talk about a bloody joy-vacuum.
-
Apparently the video of Chris Wood walking into the dressing room to rapturous applause is "sportswashing".
I wonder how far down the desperation rabbit hole these cunts can fall?

Cisse's goal was lucky, he admitted that he hit it an hoped, there was no intention to curl it over the Keeper and into the top corner. It was a hit and hope that ended up being the only trajectory and placement that would have ended up as a goal.
Do you mean Shear's rocket against Everton or the stupid volley against Villa? The Everton one was definitely not luck, you saw Shearer hit rockets all the time, The Villa one had an element of luck on Schmeical's positioning but not the shot execution
I meant the Everton volley, the one that he believes is his best ever goal. He may have struck plenty of rockets but the Everton volley was pretty unique in it's precision and technique.
I have never seen the quote by Cisse saying that he fluked it mind. Link?
Anyway, none of this distracts from the fact that Bruno's goal was all about technique and not luck.

What you should do is link it daily on the NUFC thread over there and tag Exile in it. The responses should be interesting.
