Interpolic

Get in.

Got the image of Derek Wright frantically taking notes on all of these new fangled methods he can use tomorrow.

No people are on the pitch, Hans thinks it's all over. It isn't now.

He actually fucking should go to Leicester! Could win them the league. Nobody tell him, but that is actually what he should do.

Wouldn't have had any more points with him in the squad.

Looks canny good him, hope we monitor him.

I think I've settled on Ruel Fox being number 5 in 1994 being the only right answer, everything else branches off from there in this crazy Premier League world.

Just cashed out on Germany, lost my bottle. Got a shilling out of it though. (no fucking idea if that works but would imagine not)

Nothing about his funeral today? RIP Pav. http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news/north-east-news/pavel-srnicek-funeral-recap-tributes-10681403

Neither were home grown tbf, it was a shit choice of phrase.

NUFC being morons aside, it would be a canny move for him if he's trying to get into the France squad. Guaranteed starts and a few players around him that would complement his style, at a club he's already scored loads of goals at. Seems too good to be true, I'll never be ecstatic about stopgap signings but needs-must.

Wingers never used to be so interchangeable, it was generally right footers on the right and vice versa.

Disagree entirely that the league is awful like. You've got mid-table teams with the likes of Lukaku, Deulofeu, Barkley....Shaqiri, Bojan, Arnautovic....Cabaye, Zaha, Bolasie. I think it's the best the league has ever been. Teams can beat the 'top' sides more regularly as a result and everything seems closer. I agree with this, it's levelled out a lot and is loads more competitive. Reckon the overall quality and entertainment value has been canny this year as well. Might be a result of the increased telly money for the also-rans, coupled with the waste we've seen from the recent top sides. I'd rather have a league like this than the ones we've seen in recent years, just a shame NUFC can't be arsed to be a part of it.

Cool but rude, works for me.

Better than Jim White I suppose, still seems a bit lavish.

Hey man, it's FA Cup 3rd Round Weekend - this is our chill time

Usual cloak-and-dagger stuff about injuries.

Ahhhhh.

Stuff in the papers today saying Sadio Mane would cost Man Utd £62.5m

Eriksson having a sly wank on the floor there.

Aye it depends on the criteria, if Fowler is a PL legend then so is Owen, for example.

Michael Owen a PL legend ffs. Aye, right. Depends on the criteria but he looked a huge talent for Liverpool and England in his first 4 or 5 years and scored some smashing goals. Forget about it after the Real Madrid move though, his career went to shit.

Aye it's pure Glenn Hoddle stuff with a few recent exceptions like Martinez one of the times he magically kept Wigan up.
