  1. Must have been been me. Deleted cookies and a refresh and it's back. Thanks
  2. Is nufc.com down for anyone else?
  3. We were 1-0 and under the cosh. I had to drop my daughter off at her friend's house and came back to 2-1. Amazing.
  4. This is interesting: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/epl-consistency-2023/
  5. I am going to have a can for each goal we score.
  6. Went to Fat Hippo a few weeks ago, my burger was terrible. Other peoples' chicken things were good though.
  7. Suddenly my favourite thread. Has someone trained one of those AI machines to post here? Quite entertaining.
  8. Chris Wilder's head is a bit too big for his body.
  9. What does a Technical Director do like? How do you know is above and not along side as part of a team?
  10. Howe would be good for now. The manager we appoint now only needs to get us a 2 or 3 places up the league with 28 games to go and a will surely have a significant pot of cash to spend in January. Any players bought for that short term goal can be recycled out in due course, as can the manager. The bigger picture is the CEO and DOF needed before the wholesale reorganisation of the organisation and redevelopment of the dilapidated infrastructure takes place. Any elite manager would want to see what they were getting into before joining us right now. I'm not really surprised we can't attract any of those, notwithstanding Rafa who clearly gave up on us. I'm sure Howe could do that short term job and could eventually walk away with the kudos of keeping us up and the profile it will bring. We will certainly be one of the highest profile clubs going forwards. He's got nothing to lose if he joins us, and if he turns out to better than many seem to think he is, then that's a bonus. Personally I think we are 3 managers away (and a billion £ overhaul) from winning anything significant.
  11. Something inappropriate about Lee Ryder.

    When I read "Accrington Stanley" I can only ever think of as said by that kid in the 1980's milk advert with Ian Rush.
  15. I didn't renew my season ticket in 2013 after the second coming of Joe Kinnear. I'd had a season ticket since 1981 at that point. It was obvious at that point the whole thing was a joke / merchandising outlet for Ashley. He's not had a penny of my money since. I looks for NUFC news every day (like an idiot), hoping for change. It's not coming. Nothing is going to change. Until someone rocks up with enough cash to make him happy, it will be like this. Every time some gonk pulls on a pair of dirty cheap Lonsdale tracky bottoms, he wins. They do that partly because he exploits NUFC as an advertising vehicle, partly because his whole manufacturing and distribution chain is based on exploitation. Walk away.

    I think Shelvey could have done a job in that midfield. Yes/no?
