Would have preferred it if they added more green into it. That shade of green makes it look like chicken f***ing curry. Meh, won't be used much as the home and away contrast really well like.

So if last year was a year of Frenchies, we're now trying to load up with Dutch lads (assuming we get him and Douglas). Does it have something to do with them flopping in the most recent major tournament? Nothing to do with any of that. Theres about a 10% chance we will sign either Affelay or Douglas. The only common denominator for all our transfers are the age of the target and whether the price is "good value." I know. Would be interesting if the value slightly goes down for players of a country who had a recent stinker. An unlikely IF that made me think a bit. On the topic, his arrival should only secure the 4-3-3 and probably we won't see Ba and Cisse playing together. Not sure if the latter is good or bad though.

The only way we would look like the SoS is if we bought an industrial fan and emptied a rubbish truck on the pitch. FMP, realized we don't do s***holes.

F***ing cringe. Really sad how he's just destroyed himself. Absolutely loved him during his last season. Avoided controversy, played with grit and passion, was a real leader, was at the top of his game, and genuinely loved playing for the Toon.

Really wish they would prioritize filling the seats in the lower tiers, especially the Gallowgate. Wouldn't want our ground to look like empty as f*** in front of the whole continent.

Nah. I'm all for fast forwarding though to see who we get, if we get.

Also gonna be much easier to nab one off a Nike, much more common and with better stocks. Having said that though, I wouldn't want it to be too mainstream like the ManYoo kits.

Canny to see some shirt swapping at the end like if he plays.

Aye, the two Ameobis and Campbell cannot cover that up, imo. We need a striker, preferably in this window so we can get them while they aren't cup-tied for the cup or Europe.

I know I had my part in this, but I just realized that this has suddenly turned into a Simpson thread.

Aye, still can't help but feel that he spent his happiest times here, and he's seething that it was taken away from him. Though he doesn't realize that never shutting up was key to that.

How do you measure commitment and desire? Playing to the whistle instead of whining to the ref while play goes on (and your team is disadvantaged) to save face is a good start This isn't one of the 'Jose Enrique body language speculation' moments. He also seems to let his defensive partners to cover up for his error rather than making the effort to make amends.

Panicked for a moment that you were referring to Debuchy. With Simpson though, I agree.

He felt it was fine with us, as we loved him in the season before. With QPR though it's like he's an American asking North Korea to sack their dictators.

Not worse than Simpson defensively, but comparing their attacking abilities is just like comparing Spain with Stoke tbf.

His crosses are just depressing to watch tbh. He does them early, and it's often a high ball without curl or pace at all that's easy for any keeper to take. It often lands nearer to the edge of the area than in the danger zones too. As for his attacking intent, just hound him and it will force him into his second favorite pass: the pass back to Taylor/Williamson/whoever our RCB is. And don't get me started on his favorite pass - the hoof.

Are you from the Midlands or London?

None of them Bosmans either.

Aye, but those games with Tiote are just dwindling atm. And those stats aren't helped by the fact that our hidings last season were partly due to losing Tiote to injury/ACoN.

Joey. Feel sorry for how he's fallen since the end of his last season with us though. He fell from the top of his game not because of his age, but because of his attitude.

This. Unspectacular but not the worst RB in the world.

Why no Chelsea, ManU and ManC if it's "Battle for 1st"?
