This is the closest I've ever been to being proud to be from Blyth. I'm still not, but it's close

Imagine the state of the squad if Howe had just continued running everyone into the ground with the intense press for 3+ seasons man

Biased Yank dictionary would say that though tbf

Allegri Someone's not watched one of his teams play in about half a decade.

Anyone got a spare pair of gloves for the team with no keeper?

Given that I'd completely forgotten it existed until now, I'm not that arsed if @Heron obliterates it with a screamer from half way. At least it'll make for a good clip.

Get it sorted. I've just dug out an old GoPro that's been sitting in a drawer for at least 6 years. We can get multiple camera angles set up if you bring yours again.

Working knees are definitely not a prerequisite to play these games

I thought I'd just tweaked one ankle a little bit. Turns out after a good night's sleep everything below the waist is fucked

Spartans are massive

Aye sounds good. I'm in

Inter's owner is being hamstrung by China's foreign investment rules. They're losing money hand over fist and he's not allowed to pump enough in to keep them going without further outside investment.

Tonali and Bruno could definitely chop and change mid match.

This deal makes a lot of sense. If they manage to get 80mil euros from us that's all money straight in their pocket and they'll not need to pay for demolition work on the San Siro cos the fans will tear the place down themselves.

Kenedy?

Never fails to cheer me up.

They've just sacked his hero for no reason and replaced him with a baseball analyst. I can see him wanting out or at least being angry enough to talk to other clubs right now.

The Van der Meyde, Van der Vaart and Chivu trio was amazing. My mates and I were so convinced all 3 would end up being world beaters we completely overlooked Ibra at the time.

Burn deserves a big mention this season. When Howe first put him in at LB I was confused as fuck. Thought it was obvious that he was just going to get targeted over and over with pace and we'd end up fucked. Then we had that great run and I understood that you don't wanna take him out in the middle of it when he's playing well, but in the back of my head I was always thinking the hot streak would end at some point and teams would work him out. They never did though. Even when Target was back to whatever full fitness is for him, I consistently expected to see Burn dropped yet it never happened because he never deserved it. I've spent pretty much the entire season expecting/wanting him dropped but now that we're at the end I've just got to hold my hands up and say fair play to him. 43 games later and he's still smashing it. (Side note, how the fuck is he only on 6 yellows for the whole season?!?!)

He's spent most of this season on the treatment table.

Bloody hell, Jeff Hendrick is still a Newcastle player

I know it doesn't really need saying but I fucking love being in the crowd when he's on one. As soon as he gets the ball in front of him you can see everyone lean forward and you feel the anticipation and the whole place just willing him forward. Even if he ran into trouble and lost the ball 9 times in a row, that 10th time people would still feel that anticipation that something great could happen.

Big lads on to go for set plays?
