This debate is hilarious. Some need to be less defensive about Newcastle and not start slagging off other cities just because some would rather live or work there

Doing a bit of work for Man City recently and got some ITK transfer stuff that all happened/is happening. Kind of helped that the work was related to incoming players. Of course I wouldn't risk my job to post that shit on the internet though like some loon

This was the last bit of transfer/contract news I, and I guess most others, were expecting. Hoping it fits into some bigger picture, and we do not end up at any point having to rely upon a player who's body gave up on him a long time ago.

Sad news to hear tbh.

Never like the bloke from the get-go - and I suspect Howe didn't either. As above, that opening interview was pretty horrific as a way to introduce yourself to your new teams fans. Was just needlessly aggravating.

This would align with the way he's been acting on the pitch too lately. Maybe he thinks he's bigger than Newcastle.

I agree, and also the thing is, if selling one player for big money allows you to buy a couple, then it's not even really a sacrifice, it's just smart.

No first team signings all season btw. This outcome (CL and silverware) wasn't expected at the start of the season by most.

At least that puts to bed the notion that "we always win the big occasion" that was alluded to beforehand. That was shite from start to finish and an inquest is gonna take place inside the dressing room as to why that was the case I'm sure.

Sounds like Villa have been extremely harshly done by today.

Always loved United (Yes it is acceptable to call them that today)

Give it a fucking rest man, it's clear I meant today.

Wow we might qualify completely undeserved! What a farce man

Theres some who feel they need to shoot down anything they see as negative. And they see anything not inanely positive as a negative view they need to deal with.

Playing as if they don't want us to finish top 5 so they can all jump ship. No passion, no effort, nothing at all shown from the majority out there so far today. Oh, the tactics have been shite and all.

Chill...it's a really relaxing afternoon of football according to some

Pickford's starting to love this now. How fucking grim.

Shit pass Sandro. Chance was on.

All I remember from him today was another pathetic dive. His application isn't as it should be. If someone offers good (and I mean good) money snap their hands off and use it to grow.

First viewing that looked a clear penalty. Can't blame the officials today at least.

Fuck

You'd have trouble guessing which team had so much riding on the result today.

Gordon looks like he just can't be arsed.

Stop fucking diving and acting like a rat.

Everything seems a bit flat for the occasion. The players haven't grasped the opportunity yet and don't look any more hungry than Everton's.
