Wants to be on the winning side next year (Rodney…).

Bold move that man @HaydnNUFC ?

Not sure I want him now, after a bit of enthusiastic DennisWising, I am seeing a fluid flexible fantastic fhree (?‍♂️) of Bruno alikees—t’other two being Tonali and Szoboszlai (apologies to Longstaff and Willock).

Your scrotum will/has (delete as appropriate).

The queerest of the queer The strangest of the strange The coldest of the cool The lamest of the lame The numbest of the dumb Profound. (The profou… nah! Not joining in!)

It’s a yes from me, Ed! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=h-uu6riL_Jk

Anyone know much about Tonali? Sounds exceptional to me (can’t recall seeing him play). https://www.footballfancast.com/newcastle-eddie-howe-bruno-guimaraes-sandro-tonali-premier-league-transfer-news-rumours-nufc/

First phrase (genuinely uttered aloud and not said since I was about 15…) was ‘fucking cockblob’ ? Which probably captures my true exasperation better than ‘Really?’ and btw I’m guessing 6th next year. Which I’d be fine with, though is probably low for European champions ?

Kin hell! 0 this time spoiler…

Really?

7 at second time of asking! Who knew Plough Lane would be so small!

Damn! Forgot about this. No tickets left for home or away ends.

Embrace the madness!

Ah, but real sports science would tell you that the whole barely adequate facial hair thing they’ve both got going on is a contraindication. Less pass on the bumfluff barstewards.

Well, the headline/most important bit; we’ve signed another really promising young player. Plus, I kind of get a kick (and double-take) that we are now a team who can afford to sign someone with top drawer ‘potential’, to the extent that a European champion wants him on loan.

From embedded interview (7 months ago): How would you describe your style of play? “I see myself as an all-rounder. I like to get on the ball, I like to create opportunities for the team. And even without the ball, I try to get better and better all the time. So, I would say creating for the team, and just being there. I want to be a key player in every team I play in. And I like a bit of flair sometimes as well. That’s how I would describe it.” https://khelnow.com/football/2022-11-world-football-bundesliga-2022-23-felix-nmecha-interview

Young already a full international (just), promising with development potential. Canny!

Well, not as much excitement in here as I expected to find. Delighted personally.

Someone from work (who is not interested in football) has just been on holiday to same resort as Eddie. Matt Ritchie and a few other footballers, e.g. Loftus Cheek and Seamus Coleman there at same time. As cool as I like to think I would be in such circumstances, sense of instant envy tells me that I’d probably blow it!

Wonder why Man City 4-1 Arsenal didn’t make the cut?

If your anything like me, perhaps go up a size each year ? Joking aside, normally choose an XL in most clothes (46” chest) but ordered a 2XL in the training t-shirt ;will get much more wear than a strip).

What about Alvarez? What a year for him!

Must be a fair few missing; or given a proportionate font size. For example, I can see Heworth, Leam Lane, and Pelaw, but couldn’t see Felling (all of above were ‘dominions’ of Felling back in the day). p.s. can’t believe I am arsed about this. When does the season start??

If we took Maguire we'd be strengthening Man U. Seems you have more faith in your own crystal ball than I do. He wouldn’t be top of my/many summer shopping lists, but he might be hugely motivated to show them/all what they’re missing. Anyway, the ‘right’ answer to the question was a stupid one. And we definitely don’t have a stupid management team.

This 100% - we have be there - done that. What kind of management team would think it was sensible to have a hard and fast rule that they would never sign someone surplus to requirements at an English (or other) top six club?
