The club are saying it's first come, first served. That's not true if they randomise the queue at ten is it?

Our loss is international women’s football’s loss as well.

What airport trophy? What are they talking about? Jesus. They’re such twats.

The thing about Keegan’s rant that’s never mentioned is that we were doing Forest a favour despite the fact that they had played like clueless cretins against Man Utd in vomit coloured shirts and rolled over to a five nil defeat, before deciding that the second half against us at home was the most important forty five minutes of their lives. jesus. Everything about that season is infuriating.

He won’t be there to ‘report’ on anything. I have no doubt there will be a stern eyed to camera acknowledgement of people’s concerns in between frothy montages, but for the most part Lineker is there in a cheerleading capacity. It’s not remotely comparable to being a fucking war reporter- the World Cup being ignored would harm the offending country; the war being ignored would enable it- and I can’t quite believe he is attempting to peddle such bogus logic.

It was the worst Steve Martin performance since the Bilko remake.

I remember the home game being one of those weirdly cold ones despite being very early in the season. My sister had to watch most of the second half down in the concourse

Remember beating them in a midweek at theirs in 99(?), think Hamman scored?

Yeah, I’m always happy to help with my ticket which is free more often than not

Can I be second please?

This seems like the most pointless thing in the world to try and draw anything from though. It’s not even cup draw level conspiracy- it’s about the order of games that everybody plays

Have a feeling they’ve cut off season tickets. Possibly avoiding announcing this to save on a social media backlash

Look how authentically he’s holding that can, just like a fan would. A replica shirt too. Worrying.

Genuine question: What happened with Short that made them turn on him? What did he actually do or not do? There’s either a ‘nothing at all but…’ or ‘well to be fair to the mackems he did…’ answer to this and I am sat poised for it in all its delicious detail.

Some lovely Netflix doc synergy here.

Arsenal first day!

One amusing thing about that thread is they keep saying, ‘Just as long as it’s not some potless chancers. Oh and of course not some obscenely wealthy sovereign fund with dubious ethics either.’ For a second you could almost believe they’re being honest.

Increasingly, I simply can’t be bothered to have an opinion on these things. It’s weirdly stressful.

But sliding to block the pass would be an intentional attempt to play the ball. I didn’t see what happened with this one but was guessing at the issue. Sorry.

Needs to be an intentional attempt to play the ball, no?

He watched the women’s team…from afar.

Yeah, was going to ask.

Not for me. I like it.

A side issue, I suppose, but is Milan a better city than Newcastle? I found it incredibly fucking boring and couldn’t wait to leave and head back to Rome.

Let’s just say it: The vast majority of the North East supports Newcastle United. This is not based on success (God knows) more just geographic logic. Everything in the North East- a place I’m from and love- leads to Newcastle.
