I doubt fiddling the bewks is a problem when you have that much money.

Hhtoon Owen Hart!

mmmm

No

4 times richer than Abramovich

I still have Midhat's whatsapp number.

"We got caught up in one of Tottenham's fixtures."

Is he related to Vernon Anita? Ha. That was one of Lee's best moments.

I wonder what Mike gets out of the deal though. He's parted with 50 odd million for two players who'll probbaly only be able to sell on for half the price.

Did True Geordie ever interview Rafa? Too busy dealing with his instagram feed ? I just had a look at his Youtube channel to see if I could get his take on steve f***ing bruce. What in the orange walled hells is his channel meant to be about? It reminded me of when Homer Simpson became a web designer. I'm not sure what he is supposed to be now but I couldn't see much football related stuff, it was all "Win a car in Monaco", something about a boxer in prison in Thailand, Connor Mcgregor from the UFC and something on Maddie McCann. If I had any interest in any of those things, he is the last person I'd look for to tell me about them. I quite liked his angry anti-ashley rants and his fury at the likes of mcclaren and carver but I have no idea what he is trying to be these days. He comes across as rather hollow. Shame. TG’s alright. Who I really can’t stand is that Laurence McKenna. Just so absolutely irritating. Nothing he says has any substance. It’s just things to wind people up. Inside jokes and stuff like that. Loved how Kieran Dyer treated him. Just ignored everything he said and had a counter for all his bad jokes. There’s a vid where Dyer ignores him and then TG and Dyer go on talking and go “no one likes him(talking about whatever the subject was)” but the subtext was like “nobody likes Laurence”. Seriously just a f***ing prick. Always trying to instigate. Just an overall phony. 3:40 watch. And they’re talking about whatever they’re talking about but the subtext is Laurence. “Everybody hate him” “unlikeable”. I think he’s talking about Laurence on the low. Just completely left out of the conversation. And you could say I'm picking on him, but I don't like him because he tries to put people in boxes based on race or gender, whatever works to get him over. This past week on The Kick Off - he goes "well I'm a middle class white man so bla bla". There was no need to bring that up. Just a f***ing prick of the highest order. Seriously hate him. Lawrence just immediately strikes you as being a non-football fan. You just know he was picked last in PE. He's just a cardboard cut-out wishy-washy modern man. Brian was alright doing his gobshite anti-Ashley routine, but he's a cack interviewer. Joe Rogan is 2 parts drug addict, 3 parts meathead and 5 parts Karl Pilkington. He has a genuine childlike curiosity about the world. True Geordie is 10 parts bloke down The Bigg Market.

Kipling. Steve definitely prefers the cake man though.

Or maybe he has taken time to reflect and think about a way to improve his performance. You know like most of us do when things aren't working. Just saying, like Luke I much prefer sandpit hopping God-botherer Jonathan Edwards. Hell, even mackem Carlos Edwards is streets ahead. He's seen the light and renounced religion about 5 years ago to be fair who the f is Luke! Luke Pritchard. He was the singer in The Kooks. They had a song about Steve Bruce back in the day.

Brenda or Lotti. Choose the wrong one and you're a mackem.

The guy's value has probably halved already thanks to throwing him out there in a system that doesn't even function. Absolutely needed a very good manager that wants to work with and bring along young players to even have a chance. That’s exactly what I mean; if you’re going to buy young players and increase their value, you don’t appoint Steve Bruce. The club must know this? Is it another agent favour? I think it must be money laundering. 40 million out of the blue, against the advice of Rafa and irrespective of Steve, for a bloke who rarely puts the ball in the net. There was no need or pressure for Mike to buy this kid. There must something dodgy in it.

Next six league games... Tottingham - Absolutely pumped. The Bruce support quietens down a bit. Leicester - Out of the cup. No one notices. Watford - Embarrassed at home. Luke Edwards defends him but loses tumescence. Liverpool - Pumped again. Players have given up. Brighton - Back to basics but Brighton scrape a one niller. Leicester - Perez hat-trick. Joelinton spotted shopping in Eldon Square during the week. Man United - Pumped.

Steve's tactics guarantee another 3.

Why were Sheff Wed fans so upset about Mrs Doubtfire leaving? Had he personally refurbished The Crucible or something?

I'll cut Alan some slack. He had 15 seconds and he said our forward doesn't get in the box enough. Let's see what he says after Tottingham put 11 past us.

Shelvey: Uh, Hollywood balls every 30 seconds. [throws ball] Everyone: Yes and ho! Ki Sung-yueng: Reduce the opponent threat through meticulous studying of their common decisions and devise a means to counter attack with minimal exposure of the channels through our midfield. Everyone except Bruce: Yes and ho! Bruce: Ki, Ki I want to hear new ideas ricocheting off your synapses like a pinball, not just a two year old slogan. (this one is for Thick of It purists)

I'd love for curiosity to take hold of him just once and lead him to this thread.

He's called a training session for tomorrow apparently. Do you reckon he'll just shout at everyone? Or do you think it'll be everyone sitting in a circle and if someone says a good idea everyone has to go "yes and ho".

What does that even mean? ‘Caught up in their first game’. What a c***. Norwich's first home game: The fixture they all want to avoid.

Looks hugely rattled too. He’s managed to combine the smarm and cliches of Pardew with the obvious lack of intelligence of Carver, the stereotypical thick Geordie w*****. He’s a f***ing shambles of a man and I’ve got absolutely zero sympathy for him too. Hope he f***ing bursts soon. He doesn't have the smarm of Pardew. He is a scruffy unkempt disgrace though. He looks like the sort of bloke who provokes a warning message to be sent out when he goes into Morrison's because the lasses know he's going to piss in the beans aisle again.

I hate him for taking the job, but not that much. Anger and hatred should be directed to Ashley. Anger should be directed towards the fans who make Ashley United possible. He's gone if we want him gone.

Yeah, I could see him walking. Either that or crying on the touchline like Pardew.
