I’m increasingly of the opinion that neither Bruno or Isak are going anywhere in the summer. Their contracts are long enough there’s little risk to their value. I reckon the club will want to give it one last heave and see what we can achieve in a season without a freak injury list before we do any trading.

Metro apologises.

Fucking hell, I am sorry. Shall I go into exile?

Celebrating that goal with a stranger next to me was the closest I ever came to having a homosexual experience. Never cuddled another man like it. I think about him all the time.

Last thing I was told was that they want the ministry site in Longbenton for the new development and the existing training ground will be properly redeveloped too further down the line. The suggestion was they wanted to do a more sprawling, less insulated version of the Etihad Campus but working in partnership with the colleges and teams that have stuff around that area. Not sure what that would mean in practice. Possibly the club purchasing the land, maintaining it, allowing local teams to use it whenever the club don’t need it? No idea the veracity of this info like, even if I trust the person who told me and they could conceivably know. Do with it what you like.

That’s great tbf

Isak out for the rest of the season after getting run over then.

You are wrong. Nonce shit.

xG is nonce shit. Pack it in.

Hippie guy for the first two goals: “it’s fine. No worries.” Hippie guy for the third goal: *string of unpublishable expletives*

I genuinely think the retrospective view of this season will be one of absolute astonishment at how well we did.

The cunt is winning the Balon D’Or in the next decade, whether it’s with us or someone else.

Outrageous performance today given the team sheet and all down to the way he set the lads up. What a fucking manager.

Watching a game at the GIS is an absolutely appalling experience. They desperately need a new one, but I imagine they’ve got a decent deal from the council so they’d need a very good reason to move.

There’s more chance of me getting a handjob off Pope Francis than there is us groundsharing with SAFC.

It’s been more or less confirmed that months long leaking of stories about Man United wanting him came from the Man United side. It’s a large part of the reason we’re pissed off. The Berrada deal may have been kept under wraps - probably because of the unique circumstances around Man United poaching someone from their more recently successful local rivals - but the Ashworth and Wilcox situations are almost identical. I think it speaks of a bit of entitlement and arrogance on the part of Ratcliffe. It very much ties in with him shiteing on about public funding for a new stadium.

I have nothing but awful memories of his time at the club but he was very much a symptom rather than a cause of it. It is weird to look back at his results as manager as see he had us on a six match unbeaten run at one point. He period of DoF was just sad. He was clearly not a well bloke. His summer interrailing around Europe while Pardew desperately tried to convince him to buy Darren Bent via media leaks was a particular nadir of the Ashley era. RIP.

I know it’s early, but it took me a good 30 seconds to realise you meant they ignored the tele and Xbox, and not they exchanged them for the piping like some bastardised version of Swapshop.

Wilson won’t sit around as third choice, which is what he’ll end up as if the summer goes to plan.

In fairness that’s three quarters of the back four hauled us out of trouble season before last.

Fucking hell, I hope not. That’d rule them out for at least the rest of April.

Time and a half on a bank holiday tbf

You are wrong. Enjoy your evening.

He’s absolute cat shit like. We were walking wounded for weeks before Pope popped his shoulder out and yet the minute Dubs comes in we go from best defence in the league, verge of the CL spots to a leaky sieve. I appreciate it’s not his game to play the way we want, but some of his keeping is suspect regardless. He’s not fit to be our number two now.
