Think the ballot opens on the 17th sept

Just delay it until his playing career is over like you want to lads

The issue I had with Obertan is that it was almost impossible how bad he was when you considered his physical attributes. How someone with that pace could be so utterly awful all the time was some feat

I like him, whatever your take is on how much it’s a PR thing and how much he really cares it just feels ridiculously devil’s advocate to say that it’s a contrived attempt to build his brand. No one else has done it, no one else has tried to make a difference like he did. He deserves huge respect for it. I always have the impression that he’s struggling with his mental health when going through bad patches of form. He never looks happy even if he gets a goal etc. Hes not the player everyone thought he was or expected him to be but that’s hardly a bad thing for us

Love Cissé despite his lack of a brain at playing the offside line. That six month period where everything went in was an absolutely glorious time to be a Newcastle fan

The most exciting aspect of the club at the moment is the efforts going into building the quality of our academy

I liked the Amex apart from the coked up toon fan next to me

Comes across as such a canny lad

Wew

Maybe actually try and make a proper offer rather than asking us to basically release him to you, clowns

Think it was almost entirely about trying to trash us rather than anything at all about him. He plays the victim very well though

That’s gutting for Odegaard. He’s one of the top five best players in the league and Arsenal’s most important player. On the flip side, Arteta is a piece of shit

In fairness, when I lived in London for six years I think we lost every game against them at Craven Cottage so I’ve just cemented it in my memory as a terrible away ground for us

If we do well across those four away games the signs are that we’ll be on for a huge season: Wolves away (tough game, just a draw) Fulham away (horrible ground for us a lot of the time. However, think we’ll blow them away, 3 points) AFC Wimbledon away (they’ll make it frustrating but we’ll win 2-0 and go through to the next round) Everton away (we have to win against these little freaks, 3 points. This season we’re getting all 3) Please

The football forum turns bad times into catastrophic times, ok times into very poor times and good times into worrying times. Things can be going well and you won’t have to look far to see someone prophesying the end is nigh

Took me years to find my way into general chat, million times better than the football forum these days

There’s surely going to be a lot of desire to get some business done in January to try to make up for the shitshow this summer. Will be a very interesting window in January. The line “it’s a difficult window to buy in” isn’t going to cut it

No point in moving if we only go to 60k

Aye, he will take over as set piece taker this season. Fairly certain he’ll start after the international break and Longstaff will be looking at minutes from the 80th minute from then on

Clearly an extremely commanding and intimidating performance from the Vlach. Suitors are going to be lining up in their droves. I hope he can get some actual games this season (on loan), going to be a joke if he’s not even good enough for backup and doesn’t get a loan

The rags will of course say he’s in trouble. His main role is player recruitment and we had a terrible window where we didn’t land our target that everyone knew we were after. It’s hard to read anything at all into any article saying he’s at risk given that context as it’s the easiest article to write in UK sports journalism right now

Alexis and Bruno G are fairly easy to compare and a very similar level. Not sure who’s better. Bruno F is a completely different player and sadly is exceptionally good. Szob is different again but clearly nowhere near the level of the other three

Szob above Bruno? Is that a joke?

He’s elite already like, improving his finishing makes him top five in the world in his position

De Marco is a beast like, never ever makes a poor comment. Always classy within the remit of his role
