I thought that was supposed to be Lingard? Or is it whoever fans want to make a scapegoat at any given time?

Why? ? I mean I’m not advocating signing him, but the general reaction to the possibility seems very OTT.

Indeed, to be just rocking up at that level and playing you’d need to be. I’m actually playing at Tynemouth on Saturday (on the pitch behind the main Tynemouth CC one, cos we’re at a much lower level), and Tynemouth firsts are at home again, so if he’s playing I’ll try and watch for a bit.

Played cricket for Tynemouth on Saturday. That’s a pretty high standard as well. https://tynemouth.play-cricket.com/website/results/5543836

We thinking there’ll be a home fixture (or two like last season) the weekend of the 5th/6th August?

Tbf there’s at least three Turkish barbers on Westgate Road.

“sporting event, hospitality and real estate company” The guy that was on the promo vid when they were announced was saying something about the fanzone, although I forget exactly what now

Sela claim to be ‘experts’ in setting up this kind of thing, so there’s a bit of hope there that they’ll come up with something half decent.

Fanzones are all well and good in half decent weather. Bit less attractive in February when it’s -2 and pissing down.

Absolutely. As long as he’s up for taking a £600k p/w pay cut.

Kane must be absolutely fuming

It’s a bit unfortunate that people that are associated with a fanzine/podcast or whatever outlet that gives them some degree of ‘exposure’, are always going to be at an advantage when attempting to court votes. Can’t really see a way round that though, unless the election was just based on anonymous statements. That seems a bit daft though.

Yeah, pretty sure you can Certainly in a case like this anyway. It’s going to do him no good going forward if he scored and knocked us out or whatever. Maybe different when the player is never going back (like Cancelo).

Aye, Cancelo played against Man City this season

£65m would make him one of the most expensive ‘one year left’ players in history

Some kind of Man Utd YouTube/podcast type person isn’t he? Not really sure why he would know anything in relation to Maddison?

Yeah, coefficient is actually irrelevant to Pot 1, although it’s always still displayed on all the graphics.

Pot 1 and Pot 2 now confirmed.

He would actually fit their style of play quite well tbf

That’s another 27 pages on RTG

If the people calling the shots there had anything about them, they’d look at how ‘fucking us around’ worked out in relation to Lingard, and realise that taking a sensible approach would be a far better course of action. I won’t hold my breath though….

Surely some clever bastard can work out what our FFP allowance is and we can put all this to bed?
