A footballer getting a tattoo, I've seen it all now.

Aye, noticed that last night. A lot more annoying than pigeon lady saying it. I used to be annoyed by it, but I guess it’s natural. When people say Real everybody knows which team it’s referring to even though there are many Reals out there.

Can’t remember when I saw a Man U team this bad.

Shola and Sammy

Battle of the inept managers.

He has ”full control over transfers” so you have to wonder why he didn’t sign players to fit the way he wants to play...

Had no idea he's managing Boro.

Imagine if he was named José Gonzalez rather than Steve Bruce. The media would have a field day month year.

Mike Ashley, football genius.

Fucking hell. Never thought I'd hate a manager like I hated Pardew but looks like it's happening. Blaming Rafa for this mess and at the same time reverting to his system. So out of his depth he's drowning.

I’m sick of seeing his face and am now at the ”any cunt but him” stage. It’s gone fast.

Fuck is he doing. Stupid.

I’ve always liked Willian as well.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing when I saw them play yesterday.

Proper winner.

If we had a decent manager we’d stay up. With Bruce it’s 50-50.

Yep. Ashley and Charnley have targeted another Pardew/McClaren type stooge, with the added bonus that he’s a Geordie and will be accepted by a significant part of our fan base (not on here obviously). Bruce is their ideal manager.

Been ages since we've had a player who can beat a man and drive us forward. HBA was probably the last one we had. Almiron.

Not to mention extra time in this cup final

Didn't Bruce like Huddlestone? Shelvey is a similar player.

Maxi explaining to Carroll why we're shite

Early days, still Rafa's team innit?

Brighton's Dale Stephens completed 56 of his 57 passes in the first half, more than any other player. Newcastle as an entire team completed just 73.
