Nothing we didn’t know. The man had more air miles than Judith Chalmers.

People checking their accas is bad enough. Think I’d have leaned over and chucked her phone onto the pitch

These aren’t new things. I remember some absolutely dreadful times during the Rafa years. Had to stop going to the matches for a period because I just argued with pricks around me who’d fuck around on their phones non-stop and only look up to tear a strip off someone for misplacing a pass.

Yep, it’s not going to get resolved without the club making themselves unpopular and shuffling people around. You only really need a couple of areas where people persistently sing to drastically improve the atmosphere.

As in daft. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed it but it looked like he nearly snapped his own neck. Laughed out loud when I saw it on the replay.

It looked absolutely ridiculous man

No. Ashley gives him the same short shrift and we end up with some absolute chancer like Owen Coyle.

Probably not. Feels like the Emirates and Wembley really changed the idea of what a modern football stadium could be but they opened more than a decade after Castle Leazes was being pushed. We’d have probably got something that was modern, practical and very nice to look at but not a driver of huge commercial revenue.

Robson after Keegan is the obvious one. I think a lot of the Ashley/Man City owner stuff is bollocks. The timelines never add up. There was definitely interest from the ME that Ashley scuppered but it was from other groups after Man City had already been taken over.

So many words on there that look like archaic slurs.

Why does Bruno - one of the classiest players we’ve ever had - take a penalty like he’s never seen one before, only had them described to him?

Turned up expecting a stroll.

Likewise. Fair enough, he’s a bit of a square peg because of how threadbare the midfield has been but he’s been horrendous tonight.

Strange take, considering we’ve got Miguel Almiron.

Delighted to report she had a mint time. Massive smiles at the end when we got the winner. I get the feeling we’ll definitely be back. My first time going to see a lasses match. The entire atmosphere around the game is really refreshing. Just relentless positivity and everyone having a nice time.

She’s not usually that bothered by loud noises, I just think she didn’t expect everyone around her to lose their minds

Taking the daughter tomorrow. Her only previous matchday experience she burst into tears when we scored because of the noise. Hoping that the lasses game is a bit more sedate.

xG has had me teetering on the edge, but if we’re going to start treating the hiring and firing administrative staff like actual footballers I’m going to go full #AMF. “He’s best in the league at Excel formulas” Fuck off. Take me back to crumbling terraces, football specials and racism.

The odd thing is he’s always been at pains to point out his job is not player identification, it’s to sit in the centre of everything and ensure there’s a coherent structure and strategy across the club. He obviously has some influence in that space, but the fact he didn’t arrive here only for us to immediately start hoovering up £4m wunderkids from under Brighton’s nose is probably a good indication that he’s a pretty peripheral figure when it comes to transfers. Nickson leaving will be a bigger deal in that area.

We’d struggle to get £20m for most of the playing squad

They’ve been like this all season. They should’ve got battered by Spurs before Xmas and managed to cadge a win.

You shouldn’t be this shitfaced at 8pm.

A great shot stopper but his style of goalkeeping is the worst possible fit for the way we want to play.

You would argue it’s anti-Semitic, many would argue it isn’t. The difference here is that there’s no argument about whether or not she’s transphobic - she admits as much in her tweets. It’s whether she should be banned for being transphobic.

That’s false equivalence though, isn’t it? In this case we have someone wearing their transphobia on their sleeve. There’s no need to read between the lines here because she literally says what she means. It’s there in the tweets. A reasonable comparison would be someone saying they’re anti-Semitic and proud of it. And in that case then I’d have no problem with them being banned either.
