    Had the 100-1 hedge, even put a few quid emotional hedge on earlier tonight. But can I be one of the many to say… unlucky!

    Anthony Gordon

    Not sure if I’ve misunderstood - do you really not think a team would pay £40m for Joelinton?
  4. If you really see this happening, whack your money where your mouth is - it’s 10-1 and above. Put a decent slab in there if you think more likely.
  5. Another 9 hour round trip on a Sunday, totally worth it again! Hot takes on the game without a replay - Thought Gordon was dangerous, but lacked confidence and still doesn’t know how we play / press. He will be different, I hope, after a full pre season. Reminded me a bit of early season Murphy, particularly lack of strength, and was gassed midway through half Difference second half was having players close to each other up top. The problem with Murphy and Gordon playing in a 4-3-3 is they play far too wide, they are traditional wingers. Isak was on his own, same as Villa (not that performances were akin, just that bit). First with Wilson, then with Almiron, we overrun them through the middle and tore them apart. Most the team were on their knees at the end. I’ve never seen so many of them shattered like that. They knew how important that was and played a tempo they could only manage 45 mins, but got the result. Huge next 7 days. Scouse drop points in either game before ours, or if we beat Arsenal, I think we are there. For 60 seconds with spurs at 3-3 I thought that was it

    Match Atmosphere

    The Strawberry Corner deserve huge credit today. Sat in Leazes and it was quiet first half, but the ‘Eddie Howe’s Black and White Army’ chant kept going around and around in the last ten of the first half (I think, brain a bit addled) and the atmosphere built and built from there. Genuinely a bit of a bear pit at times in second half.
  7. I actually thought that was a fantastic interview. An ex Liverpool CEO just admitted that we had followed the rules to a tee. That unless we were North Korea there is no chance we have done anything wrong. I do not like Purslow at all, but I think he actually was supporting us there

    Henry scored 3 goals in 16 games for Juve, and Arsenal got him for a steal after…
  9. I’m not even sure where to put this, but what an utter fucking privilege this season has been. It’s not been perfect, but I’d never want it to be either - at a time it might be but I don’t think it’ll feel the same as this. Almost every game there’s been a moment to remember, there’s been hope since we took Forest apart on day 1 and it’s grown ever since. But I never imagined we would be here now. I feel incredibly lucky to have been there this season, more so to meet several people off this forum. Half cut this evening, but feeling full in all other context. What a fucking ride.

    Been watching us since 90… funny we were talking about the Willock assist and whether it was the best ever in the last game… that right there is up there with the best assists I’ve ever seen, and not just for newcastle

    Dan Burn

    I’m pretty sure he went jumping into the dugout when we scored our fourth. Not sure if any footage knocking around.
  12. 20 min match cam due shortly according to NUFC twitter
  13. Based on zero evidence or fact, I think if we had won there’s a chance we would have seen this season as mission complete and completely dropped off in the league. My blind hope is longer term the defeat was a blessing, we went again in the league, we get top 4, we use that to get the revenues, the infrastructure and implant ourselves in the upper echelons. It allows us to compete for the medium and long term. least, when I’m feeling super bitter I tell myself that at least
  14. Gotta be honest, can’t take much joy in that injury. Hamstring or calf tweak maybe, but if that’s the Achilles it could be worse than ACL and be a potential career changer.

    Just used my £10 free bet and seems to have gone through no issue at 100s with Betway, thanks for heads up.

    we were losing when he came on and winning when he came off. Isak said he made a big difference. MOTD highlighted the difference in the press when he came on. Think he had a good 45 mins, think he will learn from the petulant temper tantrum

    Dogawful Officiating

    Absolutely nuts. Scandalous.
  18. Amazing result and great 90 mins, loads of fun, but I'd be absolutely heartbroken if I was a West Ham fan and been moved from Upton park to that. Fucking horrendous from getting off the tube to getting home. Does not feel like a football ground at all, in the ass end of nowhere, lovely half an hour of kettling on the way back and just a shit end to an amazing evening. To have to do that every game as a West Ham fan, even when doing well, would be utter shit. I blame them a little less for evacuating on 80 mins, although shitloads were still stuck in the kettle by the time we got there after applauding the team off for 10 mins post-match. Wembley is 50% bigger with worse transport links and not even as bad.
  19. So rules are different in FA cup to league?
  20. I imagine there’s a risk that Moyes could be sacked, new manager comes in and plays him, signs new deal as getting first team football.
