Fuck this. No it’s not. And it never has been. Everyone needs to stop spouting this bullshit line. All it’s ever done is stuck us with Ashley longer.

The stuff with Mexico is definitively nuanced. Because the chant very very closely resembles “Mex-I-co!” and as someone who was recently at the US/Mexico match, even being there, it’s hard to tell. I agree they need an actual repercussion - points? no crowds? missed World Cup? - but not sure even that will stop the chant to be honest. And even if it does, what happens the next time the common and very similar sounding chant happens?

That’s fucking great.

of course

Would say they only have a top 5 then everyone else? Don’t we say that about the Prem too?

The hits just keep coming.

Literally no one cares about Newcastle apart from Newcastle fans. They'll look at us and go "boo hoo" and then turn back to their own teams safe in knowing that we weren't given the power to compete. The Prem are going to fuck us and no one but us is going to care - it's the status quo.

Which they then tried to do anyway? Not like Keith to be full of shit.

Fucks sake what?

A little Boy In the Striped Pajamas but other than that, hell yeah.

Love this thread. Hell yeah.

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/57884925 “Former England striker Andy Carroll is looking for a new club after leaving Newcastle, boss Steve Bruce says. Bruce added that Carroll, 32, needs to "go and play somewhere" after his contract expired at the end of June, but said his exit was "amicable".”

The sooner you realize that this isn’t a fact-based takeover thread but that it is the bullshit Twitter takeover thread, you’ll be much much happier dude. Nothing of any real substance or fact gets posted in here (that’s for the other thread), it’s just for the uber-positive, pie in the sky, posts. Leave ‘em too it, no need to give them grief about it.

This in black and white is really all we ever ask for. Why can’t it be this easy?

Also, Dike. ????

Consistently the worst referring I have seen at international level. That's concacaf. Always what is going to hold CONCACAF back.

Annnddddd Riverie scores against the US too. A penalty.

That Villa home kit looks depressingly awesome.

Nah.

Wait where did this come from? Last I had read was that it was going to be "sensible" recruitment and spending and they didn't want to do a Man City/Chelsea.

This looks a thousand times better.

And it was a classic Riviere goal too. So sloppy and hilarious.

Should’ve subbed off Pickford for this.

Magic Spray making a comeback this tournament for real.

i can’t remember us having another chance after the goal? Italy has definitely dominated both halves.
