On the positive side - both Hall and Willock have looked decent. It’s the right hand side that has been the shit counter balance to them being more on it.

We’ve got £125m of striker.

Tough watch. The pattern plays that worked so well for us from 2022 to April 2025 seemed to have died on their ass. Doesn’t help when the passing is so sloppy. Tripps at right back for the third time in a week, at this stage his career, is just wrong.

Brain dead lazy pass from Tonali, sloppy defending, stupid decision and pen, goal.

Cracking. Other than Ajer they don’t look a big side, Sven and Malick should be feasting on these from set plays.

Love Lewis Ball. Genuinely a shining light amongst the average on show so far.

Very disjointed. Look a team of strangers with some of the loose passing here.

Chief Lizard Florentino Perez looks like he’s got his Super League - 38 fixtures, all Real Madrid vs Real Madrid B. Horrible cunt deserves it. https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/47855886/barcelona-confirm-withdrawal-european-super-league-project

Jacobs taking that sweet Cartel length once again.

Bit of positive news for the U21s. No manager but a great win at Villa with a very young team. From NUFC.com: Mat's my boy! Aston Villa U21s 3 Newcastle U21s 4 United's managerless U21 side are in PL2 action tonight, facing Aston Villa under the lights at Bodymoor Heath. The Magpies made the best possible start when Matheos Ferreira opened the scoring on six minutes, Korean Seung-Soo Park quickly doubling the lead three minutes later. Leading the line, 17 year-old Ferreira then converted a 15th minute penalty after Anthony Munda was fouled in the box by Owen Asemota. Villa had won their last game at Bodymoor Heath 5-4 and got on the scoresheet tonight when Cole Brannigan shot past goalkeeper Aidan Harris four minutes before the interval. The hosts then reduced the deficit to one goal during the first minute of added time when Brannigan turned provider to set up Brad Burrowes. Both sides resumed after the interval with no changes and United made it 4-2 in the 53rd minute, when Kyle Fitzgerald was illegally tackled by Omar Khedr and Ferreira converted his second spot kick of the net to complete his hat-trick. Back came Villa though and Alfie Lynskey scored with his first touch after coming off the bench, meeeting Trai-Varn Mulley's 58th minute centre and heading home. Burrowes then hit the United crossbar as Villa pushed for an equaliser but the hosts were reduced to ten men on 81 minutes when TJ Carroll was shown a straight red card. Team: Harris, Watts, Charlton, Pivas, C.Thompson, M.Miley, Fitzgerald (Palmer 76), Bailey, Ferreira, Munda, Park (Mills 76). Subs n/u: Moran, J.Taylor, Finneran. Ferreira is the first Newcastle player to register a hat-trick in a PL2 fixture since Elliott Anderson hit three in a 3-1 win away to Nottingham Forest during November 2021.

Thirsting for clicks.

Apparently it does if you’re Profligate Incompetent Fools and spunked a load of your oil wealth on pipe dreams and magic beans.

Newcastle United and Italy midfielder Sandro Tonali, 25, is Serie A side Juventus' top transfer target for the summer. (Gazzetta dello Sport - in Italian)

Guardiola is such a cheque book, flat track circumstances fraud. The gap from Man City to Liverpool in wages is nearly Liverpool to us. That’s possibly without Guehi and Semenyo too. 4x the bottom club.

I’d be happy with that.

I think this season has magnified everything. The Isak saga got everyone het up over the summer and the relentless number of games leaves little room for reasonable reflection. There was normally that midweek lull last year where you could pause, breathe, reflect, reset. Now it’s reaction content, incessant podcasts and on to the next one 72 hours later. It’s what we all wanted - being back with the big boys - but that comes with its own challenges when you have to play flat out to compete weekend-midweek-weekend-midweek for four months solid. I’ve got past the reactivity. It’s a case of seeing what we can do for the rest of the season, knowing it’ll continue to be topsy-turvy until end of March and then hoping we have a structured summer rather than the disruption-fest of June to August 2025. Oh and beat the fucking mackems on March 27th Eddie.

Like Inzaghi and Papiss, born offside.

Hoping it’s what he needs.

That’s just that Scouse melt, flog the cunt this summer.

Barton was a “gets it” lad. Still a massive cunt.
