Ireland with a bit of Spursy.

wow

Why was Christie not actually on the post?

Ireland need to be careful from set pieces, I’ve heard that Bjelland has a nice head on him.

Everton continue to be frustrated in their search for a new manager with two of the leading candidates - Sam Allardyce and Marco Silva - now appearing to be out of the running, Sky Sports News understands. — Allardyce not interested in a deal till the end of the season, Watford have no interest in Silva leaving. Lerl.

Isn’t Heckingbottom basically Grayson part 2? Manager doing okay at a smallish team on a limited budget, with little/no compensation to pay to get them.

Wow

I’m glad they’ve not just had an international break to bed in their new manager.

Incredible that the ref didn’t give that penalty on Darmian

There is something so good about the Italian national anthem.

Why don’t they just come out and say that they don't know? That’s the issue. Posting very basic and obvious information like ‘this takeover may or may not happen’ like it is breaking news, isn’t helpful at all when the obvious response to people asking them could be; ‘I don’t know, I presume due diligence is continuing’.

Luke Edwards’ tweet Practically translates to; ‘I understand that the takeover may or may not happen, it’s delicate’. Wew, insightful stuff.

What is the point in calling up and playing players who will be (or should be) nowhere near the World Cup squad? There must be at least 6 or 7 strikers ahead of Solanke in the pecking order. We should be using these games to prepare for the upcoming tournament. Could we not wait until after the World Cup and play Solanke in one of the daft games against San Marino/Malta/Gibraltar in the next qualification phase? Maybe by then he might have scored a PL goal As for Gunn and Cook Jesus wept.

What a great PFM coaching set up that Moyes is building like Alan Irvine, Stuart Pearce and Billy McKinley.

I’m surprised none of the more reliable journos have moved to deny this yet. Gives me some (slight) hope there may be something in it.

Dominic Solanke and his 85 minutes of substitute appearances this season. Fucking hell Lewis Cook has only played 4 games for Bournemouth ffs, how fantastic could he have been in those 4 appearances.

I used to like the Wonga HT game with the target in the centre circle, watching kids boot in penalties really isn’t as amusing.

Have you seen the pen in question yet? http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufcforum/index.php/topic,98640.msg6549191.html#msg6549191

Wow That is so obviously bent.

That lad who plays for Burnley would be a better option to call up, playing regularly (and well) at a better level.

That photo that they’ve used ffs

What is Vardy doing in goal like?

There’s something slightly odd with the German’s wearing poppies like

Not a single player in that England team plays football outside of England, in fact, does any senior England international play outside of England?
