  1. They could maybe move on from the death by just not bringing it up and singing about it every game, like

    St James' Park

    Got the vibe that PSR type rules aren't going to last much longer anyway, so go kart track and access big enough for the Spice Girls reunion tour set no longer required
  3. I can't bring myself to try but would die happy if the auto subtitles on that were "Arne Slot: LLLLL"
  4. I brought the Barnes as makeshift CF thing somewhere a few weeks ago, I think the biggest consensus against was that he's too lightweight (or, at least, not a physical enough player) for the position and there's probably something to that tbf

    I thought when people started trying to encourage folk to say "newcastlegyetsid" they were just hoping to create a UK Buda/Pest thing

    Aye I do as well, but people who live there probably don't. Probably Walkergate way is a canny shout

    reminds me of a lad I knew who used to call Pegswood "East Morpeth" because he really, really wanted it to be Morpeth. I still think of Gateshead as Gateshead like, but as I say it depends on how you look at these things really I'm not sure where I'd consider Newcastle to technically end going north and east, but for me it stops at the Tyne southward and the point at which houses give way to fields westward.

    Depends how you look at things i suppose, technically London is only on one side if you buy into the "collection of villages" schtick. Says a bit about the town on the other side of the river to a city if it decides and manages to retain its individuality and still goes by its old name I guess - well done Gateshead and Birkenhead I think the mackem slide was inevitable between last week and Christmas but from what I've seen they've got enough about them to avoid the drop I reckon. There are plenty of wank teams in the Prem.

    Liverpool maybe? Birkenhead on the other side I think

    Aye exactly ask I reckon 99% of the population of this country to name a city by the sea and they won't say Sunlun

    Also their self recognition as cItY bY tHe sEa. Just like we're City By The River The absolute fucking rectangles

    4th fewest expected points but 7th in the league tells you something about the value of those expectations mind
  13. Certainly wouldn't be playing Gordon against Everton if it can be avoided. Would rather he plays midweek
  14. I don't think it's that weird, he just hasn't been very good for a while now, and his attitude and some of his decisions have been pretty questionable. Hard to keep the adoration up sometimes.
  15. Of course schar's motion influenced the play; he wouldn't be playing in the Premier League otherwise, that's what he's there for surely I just don't know what else schar was going to do though, he wasn't going to stand off Foden applauding his movement until he fired past the keeper. The infraction if there is one is, as you say, taking the man not the ball and I don't think that many people would have serious objections in a completely non-partisan scenario; the rest about the player being forced to kick the ball before he was really ready is whole new level of Game's Gone, so much so that I'm absolutely convinced I just don't understand your argument properly
  16. You can't give penalties just because an attacking player was successfully forced into playing a slack and shit ball under pressure from an approaching defender. There's an argument for giving the foul for clumsily wiping someone out after the ball is played, but not for putting someone off because they rightly think they're going to get tackled
  17. It's not just the stadium but it certainly hasn't helped. Athletics venues with running tracks around them are something I expect to see in the Northern Alliance
  18. 0-2 probably game over. I thought they looked pretty decent compared to recent showings first half tbh
  19. total number of legs broken during game was zero, I believe
