Thought I was the only one into dead arses.

He’s done it at the lower end of the table and the top. He has the affinity, outlook and communication licked. He’s perfect for where we are now and the immediate to long term. He’s just at pissing Everton.

I produce an nufc podcast of sorts already would be happy to help with owt like that

At least he can seem to communicate much better. Not perfect but a start.

It’s MBS isn’t it? Hiding behind PIF

yeah just doesn’t seem right.

' But, having managed the club himself on an interim basis at the end of the 2008-09 season, Shearer added he felt some sympathy for those working under previous owner Mike Ashley. "I think it was right for both parties," the former England striker told BBC Radio 5 Live. "As tough as it will be, Steve's big enough and strong enough to know you have to take criticism when you don't win games. And he hasn't won any games this season. "It was an almost impossible club to manage in the circumstances. Every manager who's been in over the last 14 years has found it very, very difficult'' This sort of stuff is really disappointing. I get that shearer isn't a fan in the same way the rest of us are - but the impossible club rhetoric is so needless. He's not entirely wrong but it plays into so many tropes.

Talksport is just audio clickbait. The production meeting is what group of fans can be wound up most by the biggest story today and their 'opinions' form from there. Horrific station with a horrific model.

I agree and a large enough number of people simply think every thought that enters their head and is verbalised, carried out warrants no scrutiny, self-reflection or awareness. If you can not pearl clutch whilst mastering the art of the above at the same then yours is the earth and all that is in it.

Nowt like nuance to go out the window quickly in this discussion eh? Wearing tea towels is not the same as wearing actual cultural dress such as kandora. The first is ignorant/unitentionally disrespectful. The second could be construed as welcoming but ultimately all this taps into what Yorkie has just highlighted. You'll have a loud minority seeking offense in everything and a separate wilfully and gleefully ignorant,loud minority shouting 'woke left virtue signallers - I'll wear what the fuck I like end of.' Somewhere in the middle is a constituency of people going 'let's think this through and maybe we might be able to work this through without conflating all these different things.' Sadly, you end up with the poles of this chat being heard loudest. Don't know why you'd fly the Saudi flag in all good conscience at this point but again that's different and not in the statement. Nothing against the poles btw...great bunch of lads

‘Hur hur it looks like a tea towel’ and strapping a tea towel to your head is definitely not respectful and I doubt it goes down well - however intentioned. Problem is some people lack the ability to self reflect whatsoever and so all behaviour is a good idea because it’s how I feel/felt at the time.

Or maybe if you would't go to Riyadh for 24 hours with a f'n tea towel roped to your head...don't do it here either?

He’s left to be Adele by mutual consent

Well its clearly divisive what he does - makes it fun/easy for lazy English lads like Shelvey and makes the most talented player feel most important because he is the only outlet. Those other quotes don't exist without that division.

This was all for his 1000th which is disappointing but this news is geeeeewd.

Blessed day

Died at are you fucking off today Mr Bruce? ?

Very frustrating. A caretaker is absolutely fine.

And the people who do it should know this. Probably the same ones who'll gan radge about featuring in negative articles.

We're through the looking glass now with this stuff. So far from what makes the game great.

If we get someone in and they keep us up that's enough at this point, with suitable progressive additions in January. We've got rid of the source of the rot but left a malignant cyst in place. The refit starts in earnest next year.

I'm in the Howe camp I reckon. Got to be ballsy now.
