Kid Icarus

lol already inside your heads

Not trying to be critical or anything just seemed really broad for it to just be here's what the Newcastle fans think about the takeover. Usually it's like '"Good game?" understanding the role of modern football fan loyalty in a hypercapitalist bubble'

Not sure what I'm missing like. It's not 'Newcastle United’s new beginning: the fans perspective of the takeover of Newcastle United Football Club' is it? What's the subject?

He sounds like a proper nob, him. Did notice Tindal saying "imagine it like you're herding a sheep into a pen" on that mic'd up video mind. So it's probably true.

Done. What's the title of your dissertation?

It'll come at the expense of any club having to play against them. The whole thing absolutely stinks, football is already un-meritocratic enough as it is.

Has the 'historical qualification' for the Champions League gained any legs? If they sneak that in I can't see there being the kick off that there was over the ESL, but there absolutely should be.

If we can be the team that plays on the counter, there's no reason we can't beat them. Kane and Son are in form, but when they and the rest of Spurs are trying to break teams down rather than playing on the counter, they're not the same. I fancy us to scrape a narrow win.

You'd find fewer people in denial on a conversion therapy forum.

Same argument all dribbling idiots like him use, including the ones that have been on here over the years: Acting like criticism of their opinion is the same thing as saying they can't have an opinion. Usually paired with them saying other people should shut up/leave the country if they don't like something that they do.

Bracewell was the other main one I was trying to remember. Think Wes Brown had a really good season at right back for Man United one year as well.

Fact similar to the one about Ravenelli playing more games for Derby than he did for boro, Arca played more games for boro than he did for Sunderland.

Probably fair to say most of the genuinely good players they've had aside from Phillips had their best years at other clubs (Defoe, Bent, Henderson, Shackleton )

I had a weird appreciation for Andy Reid. Anyone who can play in the premier league with a kite like that has my utmost respect

That was the joke mate, he doesn't have any gaffes for England. Anyway, agree to disagree you crazy diamond.

Here's his England gaffe compilation...

My post was literally saying that they're not comparable ffs.

They're scoring 6 goals in 14 games are they?

It's not the same for the opposite reason you're saying. Shearer didn't perform for England despite being seen as a top class player for his club. Maguire has performed at a consistently excellent level for England despite being seen as a poor player for his club.

Who are you replacing him with that is both gaffe proof and replaces what you'd lose by taking him out? Literally no one

Was thinking similar. Distinctly remember Batty lobbing a through ball to Shearer and him absolutely blasting it in against Portugal. I remember thinking "I wish they'd do that for Newcastle" because we were poor at the time, I didn't think to myself "you know what? They shouldn't be playing for England"

Why would you drop a defender who's on a goalscoring run with England that most strikers would be happy with? Absolutely no idea what people are thinking. Is it too much of a mental burden for people to carry that despite being shit for Man United he's very good for England?

Someone would need to talk me into wanting Werner like. I remember putting him in my World Cup fantasy team based purely on his stats running up to it and he was dreadful. Since then I haven't seen anything better from him, only missing sitters and being perpetually offside.

Just my opinion like, but I think Liverpool has a much stronger and more unique history with it than anywhere else in the country. Mainly just because of how recent a lot of their history with it is. A lot of the North East's relationship with it died with previous generations and was then wrongly re-interpreted as tribalism and patriotism by many in the generations that followed imo. Probably one for another thread like, but still.

Funnily enough it looks like we could get Ash Willerton on that one as well
