I can't argue that. Still a bit of hindsight involved.

Yea, I just watched about an hour ago the Bournemouth Wolves game and Cunha royally fucked that up.

I think Dan Burn would be the Newcastle player I'd most like to have a pint with.

I mentioned in the game thread, I wish he would not play forward with his head down, he ignores/doesn't see any of his options.

100% a head scratcher if that actually happened and how they planned to pay for it. edit: I'm pretty sure they did bid but how much?

Were those guys at "Peak" value? Sure it would have helped for sure but how much of a tidy sum? I do agree Howe increased their value but they would need to be replaced.

They spent what was required to survive the first year. As @midds pointed out there was nothing to sell to offset this. There was Ashley's for profit legacy which gave them that headroom at first. Then they got some real talent and made the Champions League. You are correct, they did fuck all in the last windows as they really couldn't. There may have been some mistakes in not selling in the last year but there wasn't anything high end to sell, right? Let's see what happens this summer when there is some money to spend as it appears there will be. I also like the fact that Mitchell is buying young talent that just might translate into something to sell in the near future.

This is true, and teams were not lining up to "help" Newcastle after the takeover. There seemed to be a great deal of hostility.

Fuck, well good luck for the lads, I have to run.

They stopped enforcing it for some reason. Big Joe would have been sent off if they had been.

Fuck, he was.

OK, all is forgiven.

10 v 10. OK lads, get yer arse in gear.

That what was said, yes.

Bad news: Commentator said Gordon would miss the 6th round game. Good news: Newcastle won't be there for the 6th round.

Commentator said it was for violent conduct.

Taking the dogs out and fucking Gordon gets a straight red, just fucking great. I guess Barnes at LW for the final.

Sandro man.....

Come on Murphy, shitty pass there.

Lovely pass by Isak.

Jesus Schar, you ok mate?

Not terrible subs.

Bruno on.

He also seems to play with his head down, look for your options flash.

WTF Schar?
