Football fans are fucking odd. Imagine breaking your back to minimise the misbehaviour of our fucking sleeve sponsor It was bad enough when we had people leaping to the defence of the Saudis, but let’s not completely debase ourselves by saying it’s fine for Noon to be cunts because Amazon are a bit shit too.

Wait until you hear what the Saudi government get up to.

It definitely strengthens our hand. Always get the impression that we could sell a glittered turd if it had an NUFC crest on it, but Castore’s supply issues likely left us with a quite a holey case. Completely different set of circumstances now with Adidas.

Adam Purple Aki.

That’s filth. Absolutely pornographic. Someone at Adidas wants me to go into debt.

There’ll be a staggered launch over the summer, you’d imagine. Already know that away and third kits are arriving in July and August.

He was papped walking his dog in full training kit not long after he signed. Been memed to death.

Elswick repeatedly sorted me out with away derby tickets, so I’ll not have a bad word said.

Colin from Peterlee.

Not bad for someone barely scraping 4’2”. I would love to go back and read Skunker’s gerld section. Home to some absolutely world class meltdowns. In its heyday that place was brilliant. Alas, it’s long since gone to the big server in the sky.

Mackems fall through the divisions killed off Skunkers for good. The place was at its best when you had a steady stream of fuckwits popping over from SMB who weren’t in on the joke. Met a few people from Skunkers over the years. All disappointing normal.

Yes. Away and third kit to follow in July and August.

It’s either us or Chelsea.

The most sustainable and effective way to address the gap is ensuring better distribution of money down the pyramid (something the PL are currently implacably opposed to). PSR doesn’t address the gap.

The rules as they currently stand are just the flip side of the same coin. The only choice is whether there’s an artificial financial disparity created by PSR, or whether there’s a real one by having the richest owners be able to spend the most. It is absolutely shit, don’t get me wrong. But there’s basically little difference.

It would be grimly amusing if rules that were introduced in haste to stifle our ability to grow were so flawed that they ultimately resulted in the PL having to settle with Man City. Ultimately the entire thing stinks to high heaven. FFP/PSR has been a grift since the moment the ESL lot realised they could use it to fuck the rest of the league. City broke the rules to gain a competitive advantage. Fuck them all (but I would very much like an outcome that best suits us).

I don’t think there’s been a more Ashley signing. Cheap and shit. The footballing equivalent of a Donnay tracksuit.

Intensely relaxed about this. Of the three clubs in for him we’re head and shoulders above in terms of what we can offer from a career progression prospective. If he decides to go elsewhere it would say a lot about his character, and suggest he’s probably not a massive loss.

You’ll have to show your workings, because every available stat suggests you’re talking shite.

£3m for a couple of exhibition games is worth it.

No benefit, apart from the £3m we got?

Bowen would be great. DCL would be entirely dependent on the fee. That said I think this is paper talk bollocks.

Turned it off at FT and had no idea it went to pens until I opened N-O

We’re bringing on FM regens.

It’s like watching a match at the Stadium of Light.
