  1. Doesn't exist. Tyne-Tees derby isn't a thing. Tyne-Wear and that's it.
  2. I asked Chat GPT out of interest and it had Kanu and Andrea Belotti in the list. It also had Brian Laudrup above Michael Laudrup. More evidence of LLMs arent going to take over the world.
  3. I disagree like, I feel like more people would rather stand. I know I'd rather stand and is rather sing, but there's no chance of me doing that unless others around me are doing it. I feel like there's plenty of people in the same boat, that would stand if given the choice. I don't have anything to back this up with though and maybe I'm misreading the general appetite for it.
  4. Spending your Saturday night threatening to sue Newcastle-Online
  5. Any of the whoppers that wanted them promoted for the derby/easy 6 points/ to see them go straight back down again, want to speak up?
  6. Absolutely brilliant today
  7. Our passing has been shocking. If they're not being misplaced they're being fired in at shin height.
  8. It's fucking shit, even compared to 20 years ago. A handful of teams can win it. When was the last time you had an unfancied team win it? Inter in 2010, but they still had a quality team. Porto in 2004 but that's never happening again. Some massive clubs in Europe, most of them there to make up the numbers. There was a huge gulf in class between us and Benfica on Tuesday. That's Benfica. Two time winners and 38 times champion of their league reduced to cannon fodder for last seasons 5th best team in England. It was nice watching us win in the CL, but we have that novelty. Can imagine if we were there most of the games would feel like exhibition matches. Also the league stage is fucking boring man. More games, less jeopardy, more money. Same with the EUROs and the World Cup. Diluted products, boring formats but more money for sponsors and cunts in suits. Modern football 101.
  9. The COVID season played mostly behind closed doors. I can't remember anything that really happened that season either.
  10. He did manage West Brom, took them down in 2021
  11. This is it. The club don't give a fuck about atmosphere. It'll be more corporate and higher tickets prices. I'm pretty sure Everton, with their shiny new stadium, barely released many new season tickets. Loads just went to corporate. Atmosphere at PL football grounds is dying and you wont ever get it back in afraid.
  12. Thought they were poor like. First half they did okay, Lukebakio looked decent. Why teams inferior teams insist on playing out from the back against us I'll never know. It's borderline suicidal. Whenever they beat the press it wasn't from a goal kick anyway. Fuck knows why Mourinho only made one (enforced) sub all game, particularly when we were in flow flow in the second half. Probably trying to make a point of it at a guess.
  13. The weight of his passing is something else like. Perfect every time. His awareness too. Tremendous player. We need to work out how to fashion chances for him with his feet though.
  14. AZ was a pathetic capitulation like. 4-1 up in the tie at one point man.
  15. Dani Dyer and a Conference League Trophy
  16. The Olympic stadium move has murdered that club like. Sure they'll make more money, but it's tore the soul out of them and they'll never get it back. Modern football all over
  17. It's not bed wetting to consider these things though is it. If they were to get rid of Slot, they'd be daft not to consider him. He'd certainly give it some thought.
  18. Interested to see how he deals with this pressure. Slot basically said he's had enough time to get up to scratch now. Ekitike looks more dangerous. How long does Slot persist with him? Another PL game? If he doesn't score midweek or Ekitike scores surely he's dropped
