Still love mine but often regret missing out on the early version that had the magpie badge too, with the city shield on the other side.

Could be a tactic? Pretend we don't really want to sign him so the price doesn't get too crazy.

Totally agree. It's daft that Watford have created a problem by switching from a combination that couldn't be less of a clash with sky blue (yellow and black) to one that starts to cause concern (weird minging green).

Classic Pardew.

We all know the few words of Romanian this dirty bastard actually does understand would be of little use outside a seedy nightclub and/or brothel.

He'd have taken credit for scouting and signing Bruno, thrown him into the side far too early and blamed the resulting shaky start to a lack of GCSEs, the Notting Hill Carnival and not tracking back enough. Poor Bruno's sold to Gateshead quicker than you can say fret while this arsehole spends his share of the £250,000 transfer fee on Cuban heels and questionable women.

Oh, I agree! I can't think of anyone better for the price and how he fits in with what we want to achieve.

I think he's mint, might actually be my favourite of the January signings. He's just so understatedly good, you don't even notice because he does everything so well - nothing flash or sensational - the essentials are covered with ease and in turn it filters throughout the side. Plus, he just looks like a guy, which makes me like him even more. The most non-football-looking person, you'd easily believe him if he told you he was an accountant or worked in an office. So unassuming. He's no Lucas Digne () but I still think we should sign him up immediately.

Aye, that was pretty good, like.

Yeah, given their lack of bounce, a grubber kick would have been a better option.

If Wood goes down in the box and there's no ref to give it, does it mean a foul?

Been a lot of ch-ch-ch-ch-changes since then though.

It'll be mint to see what would happen if it comes to the last game, it's England v Wales or Scotland, and both sides only need to draw to progress. Can't see much pissing around.

The draw there makes it look like we're against a Rest of Europe XI, which probably isn't such a bad idea.

Top of the group so far but there's still three games to play.

Yeah, they are. Same with the finals.

32 nations qualifying out of 55 is pointlessly daft. Might as well have a league where European nations compete against each other, perhaps broken into divisions based on previous performance.

I know, all this talk of Jermaine Jenas is now making me think Dan Ashworth is a bit of an irritating dick who will be spending more time on the One Show than being our Director of Football. I suppose neither have played against Emerson so at least they have that in common.

I haven't used any oil since Aldi Sid intervened so we're all winners really.

I suppose we're oil and we've been stopped.

Bruce probably thinks the House of Saud is an Indian restaurant in Ponteland.

You can tell he's doing it under duress but when Big Dan Burn says "pull me finger!" (no, not that one) to unleash everything Blyth has to offer on an unfortunate, unsuspecting Che Adams, Joe Willock proves he's a team player.

Do we even need the East Stand? I imagine Wor Flags have already had a logistical nightmare printing out ten thousand leaflets in size 50 font explaining how to use the flags at the weekend (and apologising for disturbing their nap).

Leazes Terrace@St. James's Park. If it's controversy we're after then I'm bringing back that second s.
