So far Messi and Ronaldo have managed 7 goals between them tonight

His last goal was a well struck shot from outside the box

Selling ASM would be ridiculous imo Logic dictates you strengthen your weakest areas first and he is not that

I thought Badiashile was a LCB?

Only if we don't make any other attacking signings Signing him first doesn't mean we aren't going to sign other attackers

Us getting into the CL in the next 3-4 years is not a guarantee so it would be totally understandable that he picks Milan They are very much likely to be in the CL for the next set of years and he's young enough to join us later if our project achieves what it sets out to achieve

At the time I'm sure it was said (might have been reports rather than anything official) that it's based on similar level clubs, quite how that is worked out is anyones guess

It's crazy how they've gotten away with claiming double the losses of any other club

That too and also we'll now do things "our way"

Everton have apparently worked with them as they suffered Covid losses (for which the numbers seem ludicrous) but yeah they could hit us with points deductions and fines Though if we took the matter to the courts there's no chance it holds up I think the club are going with the less confrontational approach to begin with, if the PL continue to play silly buggers then it might be a case of "rolling our sleeves up"

Outside of the "big six" the highest is Leicester (Reportedly £12m), then West Ham and Everton (£10m) So based on the rules we can get away with an amount close to that

Yes, the league will pause for the World Cup "The Premier League 2022/23 season dates have been confirmed. The season has been adjusted to accommodate the FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022, which will take place in the middle of the domestic calendar. The Premier League season will start on 6 August 2022. Match round 16 will be the last set of matches played over the weekend of 12-13 November ahead of the call-up period for the tournament beginning on Monday 14 November. The League will resume on Boxing Day following the FIFA World Cup Final, which takes place on Sunday 18 December 2022. The final match round of the campaign will be played on 28 May 2023, when all games will kick off simultaneously as usual. The Premier League fixture schedule for Season 2022/23 will be released on Thursday 16 June 2022 from 09:00 BST."

Aye Bruce was already ahead for me but fair play to Pardew

Haven't bought one in ages due to the sponsor but always original for Newcastle, would happily wear fakes for foreign tops

Was posted in a WhatsApp group so unsure how reliable it is. It would seem odd for it to be fun88 considering the "Saudi" kit that is supposedly being released

Not sure how legit it is but this suggests fun88 is still on

Has this been confirmed?

This is the approach that will need to be taken I think Staveley suggests we'll play by the rules and not do anything to break them but if we do that they'll just put up more restrictions and try to limit us Telling clubs what the value of their sponsorship is limited to is ludicrous and like you say won't hold up in court

As for the approval, I'm sure all directors and people of influence have to go through it We've just had the useless Charnley in charge for so long we aren't familiar with it It's just a formality which he'll pass no problem, unless he's been up to no good during his gardening leave

Signings are obviously key and the ultimate aim but this could arguably our most important move

Videos like this are pointless, could even make one for Darlow and I doubt anyone would suggest he's a good keeper Having said that I do think those saying he's terrible are going way too far. His distribution is better than Dubravka, though that doesn't take much but for me it was that spell at Man-U at the end of last season that puts me off him I think a loan deal with an option to buy makes sense as we can take a closer look at him to see if that was just nerves

I think Man-U are the best at it, got a strategic sponsor for almost everything, including an official global mattress and pillow partner

It has been an incredible season but not sure history will be kind to it, it's a domestic cup double, that's the end result. Already we have people analysing (and rightly so) how they failed to beat any of the top 4 and didn't score a goal in 3 of the finals.

Had a 3 hour drive away for work, made the mistake of listening to the Pod of the Tyne, absolutely infuriating listening to the rewriting of history and the defence of Bruce Shearer is his mate so isn't going to criticise him but the rest of them didn't have the bollocks to counter what was said. That last interview with Luke was called out as a feeling sorry for Bruce as opposed to it showing Bruce out for the prick that he is, which caused the national media, pundits etc to slate our fans

I've never understood this, why is it cringe? Full kit I get, that's an abomination
