  1. We've got 5 at the back so we shouldn't need to have a 3 man mid as well if it's largely going to be made up of fairly balanced centre mids. 5-2-1-2 or 5-2-3, please.
  2. A small part of me loves that he's coming back. I'm sure it'll be an absolute disaster in that he'll be constantly injured, like.
  3. Back to the days of offering a stepping stone to L1 players? Think he'll turn out to be alright, like. Got a decent level of athleticism and his productivity seems to be improving.
  4. Nice only scored 30 goals in Ligue 1 last season?!
  5. Bruce is going to fluke this year, isn't he? We bring in some decent attacking quality while he capitalises on the defensive structure already built, a la Martinez at Everton.
  6. Statistically, he was one of the best dribblers in Europe last year iirc.
  7. Look at the insults I've taken for having the absolute temerity to go to football games, football games played by my football club Nobody is insulting you for going to the game, that's 100% your choice. You're getting insults because you're unable to grasp the importance of not going. Because I have a different opinion to you regarding what will not going do? I've listened to what's been said regarding the importance of not going, but just because you've said it, it doesn't mean it's true? We have completely different views on the best way to help the club, that's fine. It's all about opinions, there's a hell of a lot off people out there who disagree with you. And they are being as utterly obtuse as you then. You have come up with no viable alternative solution. Fairly obvious why people see you as part.of the problem. And just because there are more like you doesn't validate your opinion against what should be blatantly obvious to anyone at this point. This is not fresh. We are f***ing 12 years into this regime, and have seen a cycle play out. Absolutely no excuse at this point if you are still fine with getting dry-fisted up the starfish. Ofcourse everybody else is wrong, and you're right. That must be it mate. Maybe people see boycotters as part of the problem? You're so hell bent on 'helping' because you have this view of how Newcastle United should be that you don't seem to be able to comprehend that you're actually making things worse. How are boycotters 'part of the problem'? In the words of a courageous, principled, chicken nugget loving young man, Seymour, I have been nice to you, but now I'm coming to the edge. Your view on the matter is totally and utterly warped. When you talk of boycotting not working in terms of increasing the likelihood of Ashley selling, how can you possibly believe that when it's never been done (large-scale, whole match) before? Because it isn't helping things, can you not see that? Ashley is the problem 100%, but boycotting will create a negative atmosphere on the players which rival managers will use to benefit them. As supporters we are supposed to help the team, not be detrimental towards it. Because its my belief that it wouldn't work? Just like it's your belief that it would work, despite us never doing it on a large scale before You've got to broaden your view. It's about what's good for the club long term rather than just week-on-week. I don't think anybody is 100% that boycotting will work. However, nothing else has come close to getting the twat out, and there's good logic behind it knowing money (and opportunity to market SD via TV) drives MA. It's absolutely worth a shot and it'd be outright stupidity to write it off before giving it a try.
  8. Quite nice being able to laugh about it like this, tbh.
  9. I believe quite a few journalists are pally with Bruce from his time up here, as well as his connections to the area. By all accounts, a smashing and very open/honest bloke, so they'll be keen as owt to stay on side. A sad indictment that it feels none of our local papers and/or journos (even Caulkin has done some fluff in the past) are really prepared to properly go against MA for a continued period of time.
  10. Edwards hasn't been bought, man. He's just a complete fucking twat desperate to appear superior. Just look at his smug little Twitter picture
  11. Good if it's Bruce. Get relegated, hopefully spend some time down, get rid of Mike fucking Ashley.
  12. Wraith is an absolute prick who epitomizes everything wrong with the club. Drunk on his faux celebrity (that's been enabled by a moronic section of our fans). Tagging Rafa's Twitter handle in one of his latest replies, man. Fucking shameless.
  13. Edwards is absolutely desperate to be seen as 'superior'. He's been especially cunt-y for the last 2 months, ever since anybody ever dared to question him.
  14. As opposed to getting bent out of shape because some people disagree with you?
  15. My current workplace love to say 'offline' and 'pre-download your thoughts'. I actually have shuddered at the last one Back in wanky agency land, everyone called the product environment 'world'. Even worse, I've found people genuinely make a living & good wage spouting off this shit.
  16. Never the same after Ayoze nicked his PEDs. Good luck to him.
  17. Out of interest, how public were they with the Liverpool situation? I barely remember it being reported, no recollection of statements etc.
  18. Silence is a good thing, IMO. This would very swiftly be refuted if there was no substance to it. The only benefit for this company I can see is some short-term cash to be made from the chaos. Outside of that, there doesn't appear to be an obvious upside.
  19. Edwards is one of those incredibly self-important journalists that the influence of Twitter has enabled.
  20. Enjoying Steve Wraith having a teenager-esque meltdown over this. He's absolutely fucking desperate.
  21. If this goes through, I know I'm going to have a massive fucking problem with what this guy stands for, regardless of whatever success it may lead to. However, as selfish as it is, the chance to finally see away the cunt that's torn up the entire soul of this football club renders all of that irrelevant to me right now.
  22. Not a fucking chance Dave hasn't been lurking daily on here for the last 6 months Good to see some old faces back
  23. Surprise, surprise. File under more bullshit. Beyond fucking tiresome.
