Don't mind paying especially when it's to help out a non-league team but fucking hell, a tenner is a bit much like Think they've over-pitched it, reckon at £4.99 they'd sell plenty more.

Because you're viewing my post like there's something missing, like you're looking at it as the jigsaw that it is, but you're viewing it through a keyhole...

Lee Ryder stars in the new reboot of The Singing Detective

Really hope Paully D gets a 90+4 runout off the bench at a massive European ground in one of our CL ties.

£25m feels like much better value than the £35m+ that was initially quoted.

Get the fuck in. Amazing

His stats standing up next to the likes of Rashford in a far poorer team is impressive like. I'm still really unsure about this one but that's made me feel quite a bit better about it.

Get the feeling he's a MOTD type player who would disappoint if we bought him. Avoid.

Important to remember his positive contribution in the Rafa years and even when he was Bruced he always gave his all despite personal issues off the pitch. Anyone advocating a return to the squad now, however, needs to take off the rose tinted bins. His passing was always absolutely chronic and we need someone of far better quality in there these days.

He's been there permanently for a week and they're already looking to get shot With him and Shelvey we've absolutely had their pants down.

McClaren has to be the worst as he spent a reasonable chunk of cash and got us relegated. However, you could see what he was trying to do at times. The side was just soft-centered with no spine and littered with terrible attitudes and ultimately left him as high and dry as his front tuft. Bruce for the sheer depression of the footy, condescending and self-promoting pressers and complete semblance of any plan other than defend deep and give it Maxi comes in only slightly ahead of Steve Mc. We did stay up, that's all you can say in any defence of him. Carver was a knacker and took a fairly poor team from upper mid-table to a brush with relegation. He was well-meaning and thick whereas Bruce was thick too but also a proper cunt constantly trying to appear well-meaning. We didn't go down and as he didn't spend a penny and was only an interim penny pinching method he's third bottom for me. Then Pards. Awful, awful period. 5th season was alright but clearly unsustainable. The rest utterly brutal. Slimy horrid prick. Then Rafa. Then Howe.

Paddy Kenny isn't exactly a brain box but he's quite entertaining on some of the podcasts I've heard him on. Has something of a personality about him. Aluko is thick as pigshit and completely up her own arse, devoid of any kind of personality. Neither entertaining not enlightening.

Woah, summat wrong with your taste buds if you can't appreciate a Tory Fanta.

Well, there'll be a bunch who get extra leave cos they've played internationals after the season (Trippier, Wilson, Bruno, Joelinton, Schar, Dubravka, Pope, Botman, Gordon, Tonali.. and probably a few I missed) who probably won't feature in that match. It'll be the usual where most players get a half and we indeed see a blend of U23s and first reamers.

We're a professional outfit now, the players will have had fitness and diet plans for over the summer months and will have kept themselves topped up whilst also having a bit of a rest. The way some people go on you'd think they'd all headed off on a five week booze cruise all-inclusive the day after Chelsea (a). 11 days training will be more than ample to go play Gateshead and then build the levels from there.

It's not enough to falsify fans coming onto their board to praise Sunderland's fans, atmosphere, city etc. but they have to also compare them to Newcastle favourably every time too

Doesn't matter what they do, it'll still be open to interpretation and seeing as the vast majority of the blokes using the technology are either absolute fucking divvies or bent as a nine bob note (or both) we'll still see baffling and shite decisions all over the shop.

I'm not even aware of any "away pubs" in Newcastle. Away fans are welcomed virtually everywhere.

Remember when we got mugged paying £20m for Callum Wilson and they said they wouldn't swap him for Danny Graham who had just come back on a free

A Sunlin supporter I work with reckons Spurs have a 40% sell-on clause, hence the initial offer of £9m or whatever Burnley put in seeming like small potatoes. He seemed to think they'd probably sell at £15-£17m plus add ons which would mean they actually bank about £10-£12m depending.

Apparently Madders is heavy into his soaps and was worried that playing Tuesday and Wednesday nights all the time would cause him to fall behind on Corrie and EastEnders. Gutting tbh.

Much as I hate the ugly little cheat, I feel like Havertz will do really well for Arsenal not being shoehorned into a main strikers role.

Just thinking about this but if he's 20 we won't need to register him for next season. Assuming he could go down as a cover option for left-back as well, you could feasibly get rid of Lewis, Krafth/Manquillo and then loan Ashby and still have a full back roster of: RB Trippier Livramento Krafth/Manquillo Murphy (emergency) LB Burn Targett Dummett Livramento Krafth/Manquillo Ritchie (emergency) And that's before you look at signing a new first choice left-back as has been mooted.

Feels like he's been around the PL for ages and yet he's only 20 years old. Have heard good things before so here's hoping. I reckon this'll be Ashby away on a season-long loan and either Manquillo or Krafth selt.

I wouldn't bet against him making 25+ starts across all competitions this coming season, I think as said above Tonali will be eased in and that his work rate will still be vital for us, particularly away from home.
