Hard tackle = Intended to cause harm.
Deliberate foul = intended to cause harm, hard tackle = intended to win the ball.
You're far more likely to get hurt in a tackle if you go in half assed or pull out of it altogether like a fruit.
I said it as in a preconception I would like to see gone from football.

RascistTavernier, aint it?
Oh yeah. Got a tan.
Nicely done.

Bet Balotelli got a fair bit of grief at school...
-
Who's the one in the middle?
-
He has the ability to play RW, but I feel he'd be much more effective as an LW given his attributes.
-
Being suspicious about the Tunisia trip is warranted given what happened when he was at Marseille.
-
There is a very different drinking culture here compared to France...

Pleased he came on and made a difference on Saturday.
-
Bloody hell, saw the goal and forgot it was him in goal. Poor bloke.
Obvious he'll go at the end of this season, must be on double if not triple the wages that Elliot is on.
-
Shame. He hasn't looked bad in the last two games.
-
Remember watching him play for the U21s a few years ago, even then he looked like he could become one of the best players in the world...

Massively underrated.

Fans across the country are laughing at us. St James' looks absolutely ridiculous, but people don't care - because all that matters to most is where we are in the table.
Do you really think other fans actually notice and/or care? I hate the advertising, but nobody except Newcastle fans have ever mentioned it to me.
I have an Arsenal supporting friend from uni that had been to the game. After our game with them he rang as usual and one of the first things he said was 'wtf is all that advertising on top of the stands' and how in your face it was.
Naive to think visiting fans don't look up and laugh. I was watching the match with a couple Spurs supporters last weekend, both of them think it's obscene. But hey-ho the team are playing well so it doesn't matter.
No doubt if we'd had a bad start to the season - there would be uproar about the signage...

tbh.if it continues to go well on the pitch then why should we care, i want my club to do well in my lifetime!.
This sports direct stuff as fugly as it is, is very much short term and will be gone soon enough. newcastle united will be there long after mike ashley has gone and if things continue as they are we may even get a cup somewhere down the line, More than likely go tits up being nufc
Short-term? Why is it?

Sir John Hall:
“The meeting with the Malaysians went well but they wanted 6 weeks to do due diligence. The offer from the other party at Freshfields waived that right and was a better deal. I was told that the man behind the deal was Mike Ashley and I sat with his representatives over 3 days thrashing out a deal.
“I was keen to know why they wanted the club and they were quite honest. They wanted to market their sports goods in the Far East and would use the club to help do this.”

Pretty sure other clubs do it. I know Barca have a massive Nike store alongside their club store.
That makes it ok.

The Barrack Road ones are already up, aren't they? Are the Strawberry Place ones up yet?
-
What else is going on the Gallowgate?
-
Soccer Scene = black and white Sports Direct.
-
Soccer scene was the former name of Sports Direct, wasnt it?
Was Sports Soccer, I believe. So, Soccer Scene is a guise for Sports Direct. Great. Even better is the black and white colour scheme.
A more classy version of Sports Direct (in appearance) - essentially a rebrand ready made to suit the club. Bring it on, Mike.

Why the fuck would I want to buy a Barcelona shirt when I visit the St James' club shop? Embarassing.
