The only other point to make is if his contract is that close to finishing, every chance he’s in negotiations to renew it and this’ll be an agent working hard to get the best deal.

That’s exactly how he’d look as he ejaculates, isn’t it?

Not even close. There were some nice moments during the game, the two goals during normal time were both superbly set up and taken but generally the standard of play was worse than anything on the men’s pyramid. Blyth would comfortably beat them. That said, it’s a pointless comparison to begin with. There are many reason why we have male/female sports separately in most cases.

This thread has spiralled exactly as expected then.

Would Newcastle women winning a trophy end our wait for silverware? They’re separate teams with separate honours and records, imo.

I love how they try so hard to link anything to themselves. Henderson winning the CL with Liverpool? That’ll be one for them. An England team containing Pickford doing well in the Euros? That’ll be another for them. England women winning the Euros… of course it makes perfect sense to parade the trophy at their stadium.

Telling his current players they’re not good enough? There are plenty of ways to make comments in the media relating to wanting signings without the PFM-style comments he made.

Better tactically than Southgate from the looks of things.

Without being really boring, that’s sort of how journalism works. They don’t receive the full story in one account, they hear a small detail and then follow it up through as many as they can. Their sources often don’t notify them of the initial story but will happily confirm/deny it’s existence or provide slightly more detail, such as a price. Waugh’s source at NUFC might not want the deal to have been public knowledge, so wouldn’t have told him. But as soon as someone else leaked it, it may be to their advantage to say “we’ll only go up to 40m”, to put pressure on Leicester to do a deal.

Have any of those 40,851 fans attended a friendly this season so far though? Will need to deduct them from the overall total.

HMS piss the league barely getting out of the port.

One of the worst posts I’ve seen on here and that’s pretty impressive with the likes of @LVand @STMaround.

Why have any first team players? May as well just throw 11 players in from the Academy and see if they’re good enough.

Never knew people cared so much about what music is played in a football stadium

We’ve always wanted to throw our youngsters in at the deep end for no apparent reason. People were clambering for Sørensen to be starting in the PL not that long ago - he’s now plying his trade in the Danish league. Anderson has had half a season in League Two ffs. Give him a full season in the Championship and we’ll see where he’s at. Madness that anyone would even suggest not making a signing because of him.

Where will we play Paqueta?

I have seen a few people say we need to ‘build gradually like Man City’ and Trippier has said the same here, but that makes no sense to me as they went out and bought one of the hottest talents around on the day of their takeover All of the infrastructure and everything else absolutely, but they spent tens of millions every window on top talent. £150m+ every year in their first three seasons which would be comparable to what now? It was far from slow building.

Don’t understand why anyone would intentionally antagonise others.

I suppose a friendly is an ideal opportunity to trial it and see how they get on? Less important if they act like prats and disrupt people nearby. If they enjoy it you know you can try more, if they don’t, you know not to bother again for a year or two

Women’s football is dreadful imo, but I’ll watch it tomorrow because it’s England in a major final. Same way as I don’t enjoy cricket, have no understanding of the rules but would still watch it if it was an important game. It is slightly annoying when a news pop up shoots up on your phone “ARSENAL BREAK TRANSFER RECORD DEAL…” only to realise it’s actually women’s football. I’ve muted all of the other sports because I only really have it for the football news. I wouldn’t go as far as saying they should be secluded to another channel but never understood why SSN doesn’t operate a bit like BBC News and have hourly/30 min segments featuring different sports. Also a good opportunity for features on different/specific teams.

The year is 2042, 56 year old James Milner takes a final puff from his inhaler before running onto the field just in time to celebrate a winning goal in the Community Shield. Man City have still failed to win the Champions League.

PaddyPower have paid out on Liverpool to win the league

Haaland looking like a Bundesliga striker already

Parker being a PFM shocker.

I must admit I am enjoying how much this charity kickabout apparently means to both clubs and fans. Nice to see for a change, particularly for two clubs that regularly have success. Bloke nearly in tears watching the pen and celebrations like an FA Cup final winner.
