Daveed balancing out the miserable cunt sat to his right.

We'll only get thrashed if we approach this game the same way as Everton did a few weeks ago, which we won't.

Lisbon capitulation, FA Cup semi final thrashing, defeat at Norwich after equalising in the 90th minute then back to back 0-0 home draws against Middlesbrough and Palace. Mint.

Not been a 0-0 between us and Spurs since 1971.

His link up play is spot on.

Werner is dreadful.

We're down to 16th.

Been trying to refine it, included multiple versions with both Hughton and Arthur Cox, just Arthur Cox as well as neither. The original 5 I picked. Original 5 plus Hughton and Cox, feel it's too many. Original 5 plus just Arthur Cox.

I do as well like the idea of delving into the history of the north east but I've had a gander at a few miners' union posters to use as a base and they're not as flexible as I'd like. I've spent the whole of today refining that above design of mine, just can't get it out of my head. I don't know whether to include Arthur Cox though because if I include him I feel it harsh to leave Hughton out. And is Hughton on a par with Robson, Keegan and the others atm? Probably given I've included Benitez and Howe, he is.

Fuck sake.

We do need a new goalkeeper but medium term imo. Fine with Dubravka being the no. 1 next season as the alternate choices are so uninspiring. For the defence, I'd ship out Clark, Fernandez and Krafth. Lascelles won't be sold imo, as much as he probably should. I'd sign Targett permanently, try for Botman again and assuming we can keep Trippier fit I'm more than happy to have him and Manquillo as our two there. I'd love someone like Djed Spence but he'll likely be behind Trippier were he to come here and he'd probably have PL offers that guarantee 1st team football. I'd personally keep Lewis but if Howe doesn't rate him then I'm more than happy for him to go. Dummett would just be the homegrown at club registration rule merchant that we need. In midfield I can see Hayden and Hendrick going. Not Shelvey, yet. I like Isaac Hayden, been a great servant and fully gets the club but he's not good enough for where we want to go and I'm unsure he'd be happy as a utility player. Hendrick is shite and I think he'll gladly move too. I don't know enough about Paqueta but he seems to be quality and is best mates with Bruno. I also like Kamara so would take either. Midfielders like Tchouameni are probably out of our reach atm. In attack I can see Gayle, Almiron and Ritchie going. Can see Lingard coming in again which tbh I'd be happy with on a free, another striker hopefully in the ilk of Nunez or Osimhen and another winger if we're persisting either 4-3-3 next season.

When he gets asked to confirm whether she is.

I haven't found the designs for old mining stuff as flexible tbh. Get the sentiment as well, but the north east also has quite a left wing history too in spite of a select few mongs.

Celtic Park doesn't have an issue with acoustics does it? If we expand the Gallowgate to L7 height SJP will look and have a similar layout to it. Would render that glass wall pointless.

This guy is just absolutely quality. Said it a few times now but it's the best way to describe him, he's Champions League quality. Did actually get to the semis of the CL with Lyon in 2019-20. That we were able to get him when we were 18th or 19th is still crazy to me, and it also bodes well that Howe picked him as a target as well as Paqueta. Underlines the point he made about himself after we signed Bruno, he's widening his knowledge of the European markets which is a very, very good sign for the future.

Is that because of the Russia stuff? If so I totally get that, but (and I don't know if they still are) if Liverpool fans are still displaying that flag with their managers in the Kop I don't see why we couldn't use a similar design.

Done. Also changed the coat of arms in the corner and the look of the faces to make them look a little less photo like.

I'd love for us to get Djed Spence, but he'll probably have suitors that'll give him far more game time than we would given Trippier's importance.

I've made a small knock up of an idea for a flag. I remember back to mid 2018 when Ashley protests were being mooted and I tried looking at designing concepts even though I'm no good. But now things are positive again, I couldn't help but getting back into it. I really like the designs of Soviet propaganda and liked the flag that Liverpool fans have for past managers down below. Now I've done a brief one for us below it, went for the colours of the 1995-96 away top due to not wanting red for obvious reasons and because black and white would make the images harder to see. Also replaced the star with the coat of arms of the city, but that could easily be removed if it looked better without. So aye. Not perfect but an idea I just haven't been able to get out of my head. Someone better at graphic design could refine it.

Academy needs a total revamp in every department. Fuck Shola off as this 'loan manager', literally only Elliot Anderson has had a successful loan in the last few years that I can think of and that's because he's miles ahead of League 2 in terms of ability. The club for years has loaned out players ad infinitum where they get hardly any playing time until they reach 23, 24 where they aren't really young players anymore. They then end up being sold for a pittance or end up at Gateshead or Blyth. In future we need to be giving some of these lads a chance at a senior competitive level. Either get concrete guarantees about playing time when loaning them out or give them a chance in early League Cup or FA Cup ties against ≤League 1 opposition for the first team, which we never seem to do for some reason.

Dunno, so bizarre. If it is for the FA Cup final then that's canny shite. Hate Sunday games.

I'd have to see how uni work is and if my dissertation is done by then. If it is I may come along, but I'm nowhere near a 100%.

Why are all the games for gameweek 37 already scheduled for Sunday? Usually only the final day of the season is a Sunday, why the penultimate game?
