You’ve missed out the worst part! Getting locked up for 3 months? Trying to punch Shearer? Cigar was the worst thing he ever did [either that or Question Time]. Driving the team back from 0-4 against Arsenal was the best.

I like the way they leave that huge gap to really emphasise his "that is all".

Tell me mam, me mam We're having an early tea

That sounds batshit crazy. Maybe they just sold the flats to a Middle East investment group that fucking hates football. If Saudi were going to buy the club and money was no object, they’d look at other options. (Leazes Park) The damage has already been done by Mike Ashley with regards to any future development of SJP, it’s almost impossible to reverse that I imagine they'd look at all options, not just other options.

As if anybody at the top end has given a thought abut it. I reckon VAR was the result of a comic relief episode of the apprentice.

I fell asleep in the first half and barely watched any of it while I was awake, so my opinion that I didn't even realise he was playing is useless. I did see a close up of Hendrick, at a corner I think. Did we have any 1st half corners?

I wouldn't trust him with the domino card.

The pundits have questioned Rafa's methods, every season, since 2004.

Actually, isn't the technical director beneath the manager? I could still see Rafa doing that, although I'm sure he'd want to choose his own. I can't imagine the fact Benitez got McClaren his redundancy, upset him much. Probably wanted out long before.

Fantastic move for Rafa, project etc... McClaren wasn't a part of the equation. Now he is, the idea of Rafa going is laughable.

Not for long now Ashey has sold off the land behing the Gallowgate End. The new buildings will block the view. Aye. Forgot about that.

One of the best things about St. James', and I never noticed this until I moved back, but it is visible from just about everywhere. If a similar site could be located I'd maybe consider it.

The entertainers was nicknamed after the 1993/94 season. Was it after we won at Oldham when we were nicknamed that? Remember reading that somewhere. I seem to remember Cole hitting one like Oba Martins [v spurs] in that game. Edge of the box, hammered into near top corner. Would that be right?

I only think that if we're playing lower league opposition, in the cup.

I mean, they should be about 5-0 up, they've just fluffed there chances, and based on there last few games, this is definatly the exception rather then the rule. Media will pretend that we kept them at bay in the first half. I'm betting they'll get 3 more in the second half.

Seen many a penalty for less.

No way mate sorry, nowt wrong with it. That’s before Fernandez touches the ball, Chilwell knows he’s got there too early He hasn’t even touched him on that picture It was goal. Good use of VAR not that it was needed. Not that I’m actually arsed as we are shit but it’s clearly a foul That's a foul that. Needless to say VAR didn't get that footage.

We expect a certain kind of football apparently, because we remember the great times we had under Kevin Keegan. Feels like being under fucking Kevin Spacey at the moment. It's a football match, surely everybody is entitled to expect a certain level of football. We don't play football. We don't even park the fucking bus. It's more like we're waiting for a bus.

Must be fucking awful for the players. I'd go on strike, if it wasn't for the £30k per week.

fyp. Journos go to work, do what they're told and pay the mortgage. That's all. It's just a job to them, a job that keeps them above their rightful level of pleb so they can continue to look down on them.

Everyone is saying no to it, but the Saudi takeover shows most will ignore their moral conscience when it suits. Yeah. We're not complaining about the set-up we're complaining that we're not part of it. This is the way of the world these days.

It's a fucking disgrace that there are no dark chocolate Bounty, like.

Should have been the first name on the England team-sheet.

Stand together as fans, waiting for answers.

That's what I was thinking. Love the lad's effort but he can barely string two passes together. Same for every member in the side tbf I don't think any player can do that on their own. Maybe Messi.
