Reporter calls it a massive loss, Eales was hugely influential in their development, etc. Nothing we haven't heard. Hopefully there's a longer episode in the near future to expand on it.

Atlanta's local paper has a short podcast out about Eales leaving. Just listening to it now but seems interesting. https://megaphone.link/CMGA1162809729

The old guy at 1:15 definitely looks like he's killed a man and had no regrets.

Honoured to nominate this for this year’s Nobel Prize

His instagram account makes it look like he’s got a magical life. Constant cigars, good food and booze. He’s got it figured out

Every time I see David links I think of NO's fellow Canadian contingent

It's pure nightmare fuel

My sister played for our junior national team and she said she knew several teammates who quit due to the pressures their parents placed on them. One dad convinced his daughter to play through a partial MCL tear. That partial tear was a full tear after 20 minutes.

For some reason, I thought this specific practice was banned. Or at least I remember that agents needed to wait a certain amount of time from being agents to working with clubs. I could also just be making this up.

How long till he gets to writing an open letter to Moshiri?

I feel like the major issue will be wages at NUFC vs accepting something elsewhere with a newly promoted club. Then again, Colback is a starter for Forest so I may be wrong.

Totally this. Speaks to the inflated value you get for just being in one of the top spots.

All I can see when I look at Forests’ manager is Mike White

The news about Howe getting a new contract is interesting. Shows the owners are really behind him (if true)

This was more of a thing during the Ashley years but "oh, I see they're losing again. Seems like a typical weekend, why do you continue to watch them?" - my mum to my dad for nearly an entire season

I like that they go with "months of wrangling" then casually drop it took nearly two years to complete later on.

While I love reading the football insight, there's something hilarious about him describing going to an "A-Ha" concert and describing it as his "secret passion."

Also the first time I've heard Ando not sound suicidal while commenting on a game. If that's not a sign of optimism, I'm not sure what is.

Honestly felt the game was secure after the first goal. It was Rafa-levels of trust in us seeing out the game. Can't wait to see the two Arsenal fans in the office tomorrow

It's slightly odd how much it meant to get the note as well , but meant the world to my grandma

The club sent me the NUFC v Everton match programme featuring my granda's obituary. Got a nice note from the club which surprised my grandma and was pleased to get. Really nice touch and can't imagine that happening under Ashley.

Be wild if he jumps ship for those gigs. Leading Canada to the first World Cup since '86, has complete control over our youth development system and basically full say over our FA. If he does up and leave, it'd be genuinely shocking.
