  1. Oh no, his tweets are protected now. Where am I going to go. For my daily source. Of bullshit claims. #NUFC
  2. I'm confident that Bruce will be gone soon, maybe not in time for Sunday but his days are numbered here and I'm giving full faith to those in power that they must have good reasons why he is still here. Maybe Jones doesn't fancy it, maybe it's been communicated that the players don't want Jones in charge for it? Maybe Bruce's sacking will be a sidenote to the announcement of the new manager?
  3. The salt from Spurs fans, I'd be silent if my clubs badge was a cock on top of a basketball.
  4. Mehrdad absolutely should have went full John Smiths advert Peter Kay with the ball there like, but I'm nitpicking.
  5. Bruce took the role knowing of Ashley's intentions to sell the club, it may well be that he has a clause that increases the payoff he is entitled to if the club changes hands while he's here. The lower amount could have been to make it cheaper for Ashley to peddle him if things went further south while he still owned the club.
  6. I would say most professional individuals would be embarrassed if they had managed so many games and yet still expected players to essentially train themselves. Bruce has never tried to better himself, or learn a single thing new in all of his time as a manager. His idea of defence is to get as many individuals between the goal and the man in possession, and his preference for attack lies in relying on a half arsed attempt at a counter attack and the most basic passages of play. I'll especially be glad to see the back of him and the handful of individuals we have who are more than happy to do the absolute bare minimum.
  7. Have to remember with Liverpool that their squad is aging and Klopp will be looking to make his exit in the next 2-3 seasons, potentially bang in time for the new boys in town to pass them on their way down.
  8. They can all be annoyed for all I care, they know once this gets moving in the right direction that we have the fans behind the team in a way that they never will.

    feel like pure shit just want him back
  10. Loved Henderson's response when he was asked about what Jack Grealish made of being subbed back off. That's exactly what it's about, and something you could never have done with England teams of the past. There's genuinely no individuals, it's all about the team effort and what is best for the team. I hope they have enough in them in the final, I genuinely think they will. It'll be absolutely gutting if we lose, but it's been a great progression from what was already an amazing progression at the World Cup. A semi-final and a final in the last two major tournaments, hats off to these lads.
  11. Commiserations to Denmark, they’ve done so well given what faced them from the start. They seemed gassed after half time almost, they’ve done their nation proud though. Absolutely.
  12. I think Italy also have to step it up a gear to beat us too.
  13. Think we'll win by 2+ goals.

    England

    I'm going to go away and think about it for a while, but I do think that may just vanquish Shola on bike.

    England

    As defensive as people say England are, I don't recall any of the teams playing against us being particularly attacking either which says a lot. Germany went a goal down and didn't change from their 3-5-2/5-3-2.
  16. All the squad tested negative this morning. Bit of a weird one, this.
  17. You'd imagine they'll be tested again, surely?
  18. Hard to see a player with Bundesliga and Champions League experience being too phased about appearing at the Euros. I imagine Southgate isn't as confident that he will protect his full back or maybe he's worried that he will take on a man and make something happen. Assuming we progress, our next game is either in Seville or Copenhagen, my thoughts would be on giving him a start at Wembley and moving Foden to the centre.
  19. Best of luck to Wales, I sincerely hope they do well. One of my longer term Euros bets is for Italy to win the competition, so today will presumably be the beginning of the Italians slide.
  20. Can imagine Jonjo, Alex and Steve Bruce sitting in a darkened shed wearing sunglasses, watching this footage. "Father, he's---" "Silence, Jonjo."
  21. I don't think even John Carver can muster up something from his box of tricks to save this match.
  22. Allardici's West Brom 3 down against Leeds.
