Great option to have to bring off the bench.

Gallowgate West Corner tonight. Thought it was poor.

I'd gladly call you a cunt to your face. No danger of that. Meanwhile I'm on my way home from the match and I'm going to celebrate alour 3-0 win in the Champions League with acan or two. Goodnight to you.

If you're a cunt, don't be surprised if you get called a cunt. Cunt

Aways remembered for those 2 goals against the mackems, but aside from them he was a very good footballer.

Off the top of my head; Grounds I've enjoyed: Heaton Stan Benfield Berwick Rangers Ashington Blue Star Guisborough Seaham Red Star Crook Percy Main Thornaby Ryton and Crawcrook Morpeth So so: Whitley Bay Blyth Spartans Blyth Town West Auckland Chester Le Street Town Redcar Town Not particularly keen; North Shields Sunderland RCA Sunderland CW Newton Aycliffe Gateshead Washington Dunston

I get the impression all is not well between him and the manager. I was stood just along from him a couple of weeks ago at the bairns football match. His son plays for Wideopen and my lad was playing against them. Heard him telling one of the Wideopen parenst they'd replaced one muppet (Potter) with another one.

What an absolutely grim stadium that is mind. More atmosphere on the moon. Lucky if it's 2/3rds full as well.

He's a class act. Love him. He loves us as well!

Forgot to factor in that so we'll probably top £70m in matchday revenue for this season but aye, I think that's near enough us maxed out at SJP with what it can offer. £100m+ matchday revenue would only be achieved at a new stadium. They're already pushing their luck putting people in hospitality at Fenwicks and Hadrians Tower then getting those guests to walk to the ground from there. A new stadium would allow all hospitality to be hosted on site, and with that comes in increase in cost.

Aye I don't see why they would care about us being saddled with a player who refused to play for us just because they'd shown an interest in him. In fact from their POV you could argue they played an absolute blinder unsettling our top scorer and then going in for someone else instead. Isak’s behaviour is his problem. He's paying for it now, for club and Country. Long may it continue.

Should be £60m+ for this season. Guaranteed at least 1 more home CL game (hopefully more) and our ticket prices/Corporate prices are now far higher than they were in 23/24. It is still nowhere near what the big clubs in the league, and Spurs, will be generating though.

That's the key. It's one thing saying on here that he's been poor, which he has, but that's just harmless opinion which goes no further. If the crowd start getting on his back that's when you start having problems. I'd like to think they won't, and speaking personally I never will because I've never understood what positive purpose that serves, but with success (League Cup Winners/CL again) comes expectation and with expectation comes more fans acting like spoilt brats. Just hope we don't get the chance to find out. Wouldn't expect him to start tomorrow anyway. I think he'll bring Murphy back in. He did well again when he came on v Brighton.

Our matchday revenue was £50.1m in 23/24. https://swissramble.substack.com/p/newcastle-united-finances-202324

They've put something on Facebook about a display in the Gallowgate.

Always had the impression he would love to have managed us one day. Obviously that day has passed now but he's always showed so much respect to our club, and Sir Bobby

He'd never won here before until we got lumbered with Steve Bruce.

Semenyo was always my first choice tbh. We were in for Mbuemo I think but he chose Man Utd. I do think that Elanga will improve the longer he's here mind. That's what Howe does. For the time being though he needs taken out of the team. We looked much better with Murphy there yesterday.

The wingers are my main concern and we've spent best part of £150m on them. They need to start firing. They need to start doing what they're there to do. Getting the ball in the box and chipping in with more goals themselves. We've always struggled againt low block teams. We can't play through teams from central positions the way the really top teams can do which is why we need the wingers firing cos they're the ones who can stretch games and give us the advantage. Listen, Howe will have forgotten more about coaching a football team and I'm sure that's what he'll be focusing on. Certainly doesn't need me to tell him! Once they're up and running we should see an upturn but it'll be much of the same until then. My main worry is that we give ourselves too much to do.

My issue is that you are a lying bastard. How could you possibly know how many NUFC games Sam Fender has been too ffs? Also his gigs aren't awash with anti safc flags that's another lie. I'll give you some advice here. Take it on board if you can. Your anti NUFC/Fender shite will be lapped up on groomers. You can come out with any untruth and any made up story you like on there and they'll all lap it up. Tell them he's never been to watch NUFC before, tell them his gigs are all anti Sunderland, amd they'll all have it as gospel. That's not going to happen on here and your lies will be called out so it's all about knowing your audience. Just remember that and we'll all get on just fine.

I'd hope when things level out we'll end up on high 50s points this year they might get low 40s. Just going off what we've seen so far. Mix of games for us. Played 2 relegation candidates in Wolves and Forest. Beat them both. Played 2 title contenders. Lost them both. The rest a mixture of likely mid table teams and drew and lost.

They had a far better starting position mind. We basically had to start from scratch after Ashley and Bruce.

Before the injury I thought £55m for a 29 year old with 10 months on his contract wasn't great business but Isak put us in a bad position so could sort of understand it. I'd still have rather gone for some left field signing from abroad, a younger lad for less money and a sell on value but I suppose we were backed into a corner in lots of ways.

Needs a run of starts now. Not a run of games coming off the bench but a run of starts.
