Lush Vlad

I said a few times on here I liked the look of him. Then he went on a barren run and kept missing sitters he's back amongst the goals of late. I think Wolves have an agreement in place to make the loan permanent at the end of the season.

Nah. You watched him much this season? Maybe I've just paid more attention as I know a fair few Ipswich fans and it's not too far from me. But not comparable to Ferguson at all IMO. He's a handful even when not scoring, fast, strong, not bad on the ball for a big fella. He's playing in a dreadful side. Yet regularly gives opposing CB's a hard time. Ferguson has also had injuries and was sort of unfortunate with Brighton rotating players in and out. As someone else pointed out, he never really kicked on like you would have expected.

The absolute cheek of Yates complaining about a bad tackle, trying to get their player sent off

Lively old start this. Proper end to end. Forest actually look a bit crap off the ball for once. Man U finding loads of space. But they always defend well and spring counters. So I expect it will be the typical Forest performance and win.

Man U winning is better for us. But them losing is always brilliant. So it's win-win as far as I'm concerned.

Horrendous defending. But that is a great goal.

April fool’s are supposed to be before midday.

April fool’s.

Same. Not sure why I’m surprised. But I didn’t think the streets and then the event would be that packed. You can tell the players were generally shocked and amazed by the level of support. So many fans of other clubs commenting positively on it and all.

Me too. Had to watch it back 3-4 times. Had no recollection of it at all.

Pope said Isak has the hardest shot in training, along with Sandro. He also said everyone struggles to get the ball off Isak and Joelinton in training.

I really don’t get that line of thinking? Not taking the first home game after making history ‘seriously?!’ I don’t even fully buy into players half-arsing it leading into the cup final. But I imagine even subconsciously it will play a part. This is almost the opposite of that. If anything, the players should be playing with more freedom after a historic win and getting into Europe. Along with less fear of injury or suspension. Big Joe and Big Dan Burn need to go steady for another 4 games, mind!

Their team is littered with shithouses under Iraola. Awful to play against and to watch if it’s your team they’re doing it to. However. I find it hard to complain about that. As when we’re at our best, we’re very similar.

He’d be a right tit if he did choose to go there.

What about games in the cup when he doesn’t play? He gets rotated at times no. How would you enforce such a thing and prove that he’s been ‘dropped’. Sounds like bollocks.

Out of that lot, I’d want 100% want Bournemouth to win it. Fuck Villa, even though they are much more likeable these days. Same for Forest. Palace are fine, but they hate us and just because of Pardew, they can fuck off and all.

Might go back for a 3rd rewatch now. Recently did the same for The Sopranos. So it’s only fair!

I’m sort of similar. I cling on to my 1/4 North East bloodline (Durham, not Newcastle) and it’s always been a badge of honour. Even when we were shit. Which has been for roughly 80% of my life

Has Henry Winter always liked us? I always thought his articles were a bit anti-NUFC. But I’m sure in more recent times he has seemed sweet on us. Just heard him on Talksport there with Custis, who despite being an NUFC fan, I’m not a fan of. Winter was very complimentary, positive and thoughtful with his comments.

Urgh. That cunt Yates for the scabs and all. You knew the 2 Brighton lads were missing. May as well have told Sels where they were hitting it

Just keep thinking of Ciro from Gomorrah whenever I see or hear from Howe. Eddie L’immortale

Bruno is just like a kid that’s had too many e numbers. Probably has the amount of chocolate and sweets he says he likes to eat

I wouldn’t say I can’t stand them. I’m sure they’re nice lads. But they’re whole schtick is a bit crap and basically every show they’ve ever been on is terrible

Bruno claps like that famous meme of the guy that forgot he had broken all his fingers.

Tindall always seems a bit socially awkward. Even more so on a stage in front of so many. That or he does way too much powder
