  1. Watching this again, it's another classic Joelinton performance imo. Defensively he's so good
  2. "Cramlington has fallen" RTG's hilarious like. They love their mythical North Tyneside and Northumberland Mackems.
  3. I'm not saying that like. Man City got taken over by UAE, I immediately hated Man City. If I was say a Spurs fan, Newcastle get taken over by Saudi Arabia, I'd immediately hate Newcastle. That's what I meant.
  4. Leicester 0-2 Man City Bournemouth 0-2 Spurs Brentford 2-0 Wolves Brighton 1-1 Chelsea Palace 2-1 Southampton Newcastle 2-0 Villa Fulham 2-0 Everton Liverpool 2-0 Leeds Arsenal 5-0 Forest Man United 2-1 West Ham
  5. There are plenty that didn't care or liked us before who now don't specifically because of our owners. Whether you care or not is another matter
  6. Think it's probably the Saudi state ownership as well tbh. I'd immediately hate us if it was another club.
  7. I'm still not convinced by any of the theories like, but the George loyalists theory seems to have as much evidence for it as the Stephenson lamp theory (none )
  8. I've always been like that, I used to regularly set arbitrary challanges that I would tell myself would mean something else. eg 'if the bus comes in the next 2 minutes it means that Newcastle will win on Saturday' - a completely normal quirk that carried on from childhood to adulthood, but a lot of people are now seemingly desperate to self-diagnose as ADHD.
  9. I'm very funny about which tops I wear when I'm watching the match and when I put them on. If we lose or draw and I was wearing a top, it goes to the bottom of my rotation and I'm dubious about wearing a top if I remember that we didn't play that well or didn't get a result the last time I wore it. It's ridiculous really. There's been a few times (like the Everton match the other week) where if I'm wearing a new top and we're not playing well, I'll just take it off. It's now starting to spread to which NUFC socks I wear. I don't believe in any of it, but act exactly like someone who does.
  10. Should be Miggy really. He's doing it from the wing for Newcastle, not from centre forward for Man City. Haaland won it in August as well.
  11. Fantastic. I remember watching the Martins 3-2 in Amsterdam with a Spurs fan. One of my favourite football memories and I'm sure that one will be for you as well.
  12. Villa haven't won at SJP since the Bowyer Dyer fight 17 years ago like. It takes some doing to have not beaten us at some point at home under Ashley. I still think we'll beat them but it'll be tight and a draw is possible. If Gerrard was manager we would have absolutely battered them though and I was looking forward to that.
  13. West Ham getting another crazy handball goal? Seems a bit weird that
  14. It'll never not be funny that West Ham have fans who think they're hard but sing about bubbles
  15. I couldn't be more grateful that we didn't get Emery. Not because he's not good, because he is and he was my first choice, but purely because of how much I bot Edward Howe and his style of football.
  16. I will never accept Don Hutchison referring to Newcastle as 'we'

    Looking back, at this point in the season a lot of it was with having a really favourable run of games as well. Guthrie, Best, Taylor, and Perch all really stood up when called upon as well. HBA didn't get into the team until December time.
  18. Yeah, I've always thought this like. Can you imagine the emotional wreck he'd be if France hadn't won that World Cup Final.

    7th-ometer

    It's shaping up to the be the highest quality league in my memory like. 4 points between 11th and bottom, with none of them being an obvious candidate for the drop. You'd think it'll probably be Forest, but being bottom with 9 points from 2 wins and 3 draws in 12 still seems really, really unusual.
  20. I haven't watched Leeds since their form's dipped. Presumably Harrison's gone off the boil as well then?
