Gini is the fucking man.

Disgusting defending.

Great from Sissoko and Gini, much better.

I think Tiote genuinely has severe learning disabilities.

So it is, I had no idea. But yeah, he's never ever referred to as Perez Gutierrez, weird.

He's barely even an option. He does nowt.

Garth Crooks has it like: Elliot Janmaat Mbemba Sissoko Mitrovic Coloccini Wijnaldum Perez Colback Dummett Tiote Perez Gutierrez?

I didn't realise knacking you ACL was life-threatening.

Given that our season normally ends in January, this could be the shortest season of all time.

It might have been our best start in 17 years but you lost to the worst team the Premier League has ever seen, you fat cunt.

Just seems to be a matter of when. The following is on the Chronicle website today "Concerningly for the Magpies, there is scope for their injury problems to get worse as they monitor an old injury sustained by Elliot last season. With Karl Darlow out injured for another month with an ankle problem, Newcastle are keeping a close eye on Elliot’s thigh after he picked up an injury last December which required surgery. Elliot broke down with the problem again in April, and Newcastle know they are just one more injury setback away from a goalkeeping crisis." http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/newcastle-set-offered-french-international-10260011 It's 2015 and Rob Elliot is about to be our goalkeeper for the foreseeable future. If that's not a goalkeeping crisis then I don't know what is.

Shin pads would have prevented that.

My legs are in bits today, like.

I was also a big fan of the pitch, cracking surface and a decent size.

Good game, lads. I'll look after the trophy until someone else wants it.

Aye, because our fantastic carpet we were playing on prior to the rugby was allowing us to play glorious football.

Only a max fine of £5000 according to that article. Hardly a deterrent.

Something like this might work. I'd go with two 25 minute halves with a 5 minute break first off. If it's even Stevens carry on for another 50 mins (with a break, obviously), if it's painfully obvious one team is better than the other then we can mix the teams up.

Two 50 minutes I haven't played in over a month, man.

What time is the pitch booked for again? It's missing from the thread title/OP.

I'm 6"2, quit worrying. I got this.

I'm 5"5.

This mouldies crack is still a bit disappointing, like. I'd argue you're at greater risk of injury wearing trainers on there, especially if it's wet (it is outside, isn't it? ). Plus a sole to the shins/ankle/foot is gonna knack regardless of whether there's moulded studs there or not.
