Maybe it’s because I’m a ticket nonce and therefore more tuned into it, but it does feel like there a groundswell of press activity at the moment highlighting nefarious football touting activity. Which makes me think there’s enough pissed off fans at enough clubs to give the journos a reason to publish stories and generate the clicks they need.

Any members attending all games can still get fucked and fight over scraps with every other punter and millions of billions of touts if we get to the final

For PSR to be scrapped and NUFC to introduce tens of thousands of rail seats and designate them singing areas

What if his outperformance became his underlying numbers, you know, like through good coaching and more experience, greater confidence, increased maturity. Or do the stats not allow that. When I was younger my underlying numbers were to shit in my pants where I stood, if I made it to the toilet it was a big outperformance. Now though, I can shit on the toilet most days.

Fella I know travelled up from Brum to take his bairn to see Liverpool play at home last night. Think it was the bairns first trip to Anfield. The family has no connection to Liverpool. Bairn made him take a detour via the Man City club shop for a full kit on the the way home.

I found it helped me to read that in a Stephen Hawking voice

You think Howe and the rest of the management team won't have known all of that ? And if reports are to be believed, we were making moves for Elanga in previous windows, so he was a long term target not a spur of the moment purchase. And Elanga is currently transitioning into our way of playing, under the guidance of Howe. That's taking time, as it will with some players. In a world where we're hamstrung by PSR we're not going to take many gambles on players who cost a lot of money. I'm assuming you're not working in elite level football, but you seem to have the view that you have better insight into players and tactics than the NUFC scouting staff and management team do.

What would you say to my Forest supporting mate who was absolutely crystal clear in his view that Elanga was outstanding for them last season and he was devasted that they were losing him ? Doesn't know what he's talking about ?

When people say to me, 'Would you rather be thought of as a funny man or a great poster?' My answer's always the same: to me, they're not mutually exclusive

People just always want someone to piss and moan about. They're not happy unless there's a player in our own side that's being singled out for criticism, it gives the negative twats a stiffy. He's not been great, he's not been shite. He's putting the effort in and it's early days. He was getting plenty of positive support from his teammates on the pitch last night and also some detailed on-field tactical instructions from the senior players that cameras might not have picked up on. And the way to make a player better is not for the home crowd to get on their backs. I know that for sure.

In the corner again last night and as usual rarely did the singing stop, was down the front for a change so I had a perfect view of the adjacent blocks. The people in the East Stand borderlands were also stood up singing. The people in the Gallowgate main stand borderlands were also stood up singing. You can see some further away from the corner sitting down and trying to get involved, but it just isn't the same. They're stifled. JUST GIVE US THOUSANDS MORE RAILS. IT'LL BE MINT.

Adopts Forrest Gump voice My momma always said “Sandro’s like a box of chocklits. If every chocklit in the box was mouth watering and delicious and the best chocklit you’d ever ate” And that’s all I have to say about that.

Never heard of him either, but he definitely takes magic mushrooms

Just as a very simple litmus test on how good / bad your recent transfer activity and player development has been.... Which established players have you bought that you've then sold on for a profit versus the price you paid for them ?

Have a deeks round the ground when the game is on and you'll notice that loads of people who are either at the back of a block, or back of a stand will choose to stand up rather than sit. I hate sitting down at the match, so if I can't get in The Corner I'll always pick a seat at the back of a block if I can, because I can stand without anyone complaining and usually there's also others around me standing up. Back of block, last seat in the row is chefs kiss.

If Kinsky is playing directly behind your right sided full back then I fancy our chances of beating you

I never said all stats were nonsense. I like stats. A data driven approach based on facts can often provide the framework for improvements in many walks of life. Descriptive stats are great. Inferential stats in the hands of experts can be useful. But this new obsession with ordinary punters using inferential stats in football discussion is hollow as fuck. People love watching and talking about football because it’s a game of skill, chance and emotion, not because a Lawrence Logic punter can dig out inferential statistics.

Got no problem at all with facts. Facts are good. Factual data is good. By using facts you can definitely understand things a bit more. It’s the mumbo jumbo like “underperforming their expected goals” and the other football stat nonce pie in the sky gobbledegook that needs to be banned for the sake of humanity. The made up stats that were quoted above don’t even align. So you’ve got 2 x stat companies providing 2 x completely different versions of the same made up stat. It’s just nonsense.

Have a deeks at the league table, that’ll tell you how many actual real life points Liverpool have, how many actual real life goals they’ve scored and how many actual real life goals they’ve conceded. Jobsagoodun.

I’ve recounted the specific incidents on here in the past but on the rare occasions in my life that I’ve encountered vicious racism in its most disgusting and vocal form it’s been following NUFC away in the 2000’s and also at the 2023 cup final. There are some utter vermin in our support.

I think he’s referring to the Union Jacks and St George crosses hanging out of house windows, hoisted on flag poles and tied to lampposts and how they’re a thinly veiled demonstration of racism and xenophobia.
