  1. I find most of our fans insufferable, so I don’t listen to any NUFC podcasts. I’d recommend it.
  2. It wouldn’t be part of their plan, but I don’t know why they’d immediately sell us at a huge loss rather than attempt to get us back up.
  3. He was nowhere near the worst we’ve had in recent memory. He was bang average, but he was a damn sight than better than someone like Rivière.
  4. It’s perfect if you want to understand their willingness to throw good money after bad on absolutely mental projects.
  5. Our new owners are spending billions on building a big fucking city in the middle of the desert that’s a single straight line. And you’re worried about spending £25m on a fullback?

    St James' Park

    Anything to be said for just chucking rocks at it?
  7. Nah, cyber bullying is class. I want to see him doing more of it.
  8. Won’t happen. Agents and players will have a fit. It’s why the entire idea is nonsense.
  9. That’s top class WUMing
  10. Imagine the size of the borehole.

    Joelinton

    That back-to-back challenge towards the end which ended with two of their lot laying on the floor appealing to the ref was brilliant.
  12. And some people seem to think it’s a fluke we’re down there and we’ll be fine Does my tits in.
  13. We had to take him off because he was blowing out of his arse, but the threat of ASM had Norwich playing five yards deeper than they did when Miggy came on.

    Joelinton

    Just bung him in centre mid and you’ve got your £40m player.
  15. He’s the only person in the 50 mile radius with a left foot apparently.
  16. This. I’m more miserable know the club isn’t a bombscare off the pitch. Bring back Ashley so I can slide back in to apathy.
  17. Manquillo is the only one who seems to move.
  18. Never want to see this cunt in a Newcastle shirt again.
  19. I’d love to get more wound up about the team selection but it’s not as if we’ve got anyone of any genuine quality on the bench. Joke club.

    Rafa Benítez

    I think there is a tendency to view Rafa’s tenure through rose tinted glasses to some degree, mainly because of how positively he spoke about the club. There were periods of poor performance and there were points left on the table against lesser opposition. At times we played some absolutely manky anti-football that was designed to achieve a 1-0 loss. All that said I’ve never seen a Newcastle United side so well organised. So often we looked more than the sum of our parts. And when we did get into a position where we actually played football we were capable of producing some really good looking stuff. I was never worried about relegation, even when we were knee deep in it because everything we did was designed to help us hit a higher gear in the second half of the season. The great what if will always be how much more he could’ve achieved with different owners, or even if Ashley wasn’t such a dickhead. I don’t think his time at Everton will ever be a good indicator of what might have happened here, circumstances are totally different. Not like we’ll ever find out.

    Sunderland

    Nothing more punk than a man called Jonny Punk.
  22. The manager situation was a farce. This? Not so much. Investment in January is disconnected from the longer term plan a DoF would oversee. It’s all about keeping us up.
