I couldn’t give a tupenny fart who gets in. Anyone who put in a shift for the toon is in my hall of fame.

I hope he drops the big story first. It’ll be shite if it’s 90 minutes of teasing.

So... Keith hasn't single-handedly unearthed a load of dodgy PL emails which he's then decided to show Liam Kennedy, has he? We'll see what "bomb" he drops I suppose but one would have to think this is a coordinated move by NUFC's legal team.

His tactics nearly gave me aneurysm that day. Don't let him get away with taking credit for these results.
-
2 games ago he was 2 up against 10 men and decided to let them have the ball 45 minutes
-
His accent isn't that much better than Bruce's either.
-
I don't quite understand this either but Liam Kennedy and Keith aren't idiots. I'm sure they're going to drop something substantial next week.

Summer starts 1st of May. Amanda for May Queen, please.

Genuine movements which pose a threat to power are either co-opted or squashed. Twitter and the media is the system. The billionaires who own these platforms are not going to let any prole resistance take off.

It’s very difficult to be a dissenting voice on social media as it is. You don’t have to breach the terms of service to receive a ban. However, as long as one stays on the right side of the law, then there’s usually no threat of further punishment. You signed up, got banned and slipped away all anonymously. With the option of anonymity removed, everybody would be held “publicly accountable” for what they say. And when I say publicly accountable, I mean that they would be subject to artificially designed public pressure. Public outrage is controlled and manipulated to serve power. Always. Social movements can be broken down into three types: 1. Genuine grassroots movements which are then co-opted by the system for their own ends. 2. Genuine grassroots movements which the system works tirelessly to suppress. 3. Astroturfed movements, set up by the system to look like grassroots movements. In other words, there is no room for dissent on social media or media in general. Any social movement which has media momentum was either set up by the system to serve the system or has been co-opted by it. ID registration just makes everything easier to manage.

They don’t have sweat glands. Lost them in the Falklands with Prince Andrew.

It would however mean that people as likeable as Tom Werner and Joel Glazer have complete control over what can and can’t be said.

I’ll give you an even more cynical take. Football and the media platforms are run by billionaires with similar political and economic interests. They’re already on the same page. This will be used to end the days of anonymity on Twitter and everybody will be required to register an account with their ID card / finger prints / soul. In the years following, the trend will continue across other platforms, putting an end to the Wild West days of the Internet. It’s about exerting further control over public discussion.

I like him. I guarantee you from Sunday to Friday he's happier than everyone on here combined.

No. It's very wrong.

Was a straight red for me. A regular cynical body check is a yellow. Fabinho's foul was excessively forceful and could easily have injured him. -

I said in the match day thread ASM has never looked fully fit in the whole time he's been here. He always looks knackered after an hour and he quite often limps after making a run. I sometimes wonder if he's carrying a permanent niggling injury that we don't know about. If he is, this might explain why he's at NUFC and not somewhere better. -
On Wraith's podcast he said something to the effect of: "People always ask me what I'm doing... Well, next week you're going to find out what I've been doing and Newcastle are going to come out fighting." He later said that he'd be giving a story to Liam Kennedy. Then today he's predicting that Richard Masters is going to be rattled. Last week, we had that knacker Luke Edwards and other dafties in the media trying to stir up shite against KSA, so my guess is that he's going to drop a few bits of information or evidence, under the direction of De Marco, that don't reflect well on the PL. I think he's just helping them ramp up their own media game before arbitration starts. That's my guess anyway.

In fairness, Dubravka didn't have to move.

This one is interesting. Something is obviously due to happen next week. I don't care how unfashionable it is to like Keith. He's one of the good guys.

What is the end game for any industry or business under capitalism? It's monopoly. The rich clubs will continue to get richer at the expense of the poor clubs until the poor clubs are no longer able to sustain themselves. I'm not sure what happens after that. Perhaps the the rich clubs will find a way to buy them out and run them as talent farms. Perhaps all football outside the super league is reduced to an amateur sport. Even after that, the competition would continue within the super league, presumably until Google own every team.
-
I'm not bothered about signing him. If the teakeover fails, we're done as a club. If it goes through we'll be able to fund the technology to de-age Zidane.

The players might not want radio waves on their nipples.

Sounds too time-outy to me.
