They’d be daft if they did - even if Clough probably is the best second division centre forward in the history of English football
-
Ah yes, I remember 2020. OM supporters buying this shite still? It’s been half a decade lads; time to move on
-
I can’t imagine any football supporter swapping a WC for a European Cup. Absolutely lost on me. I wouldn’t swap any NUFC trophy for an England one.
-
Same - and don’t get me started on the whistling for the final whistle at SJP; who the fuck do people think that helps? It raises my anxiety levels
-
The Spanish bullshit press love hoying our name about, because they think we’ve got unlimited funds and PSR doesn’t exist The lack of a single English source should’ve been a massive red flag
-
All they have to do is the sensible thing - offer all the games on at a reasonable price. Say a fiver a match - and they’d nip most of it in the bud. Most would rather watch it properly instead of a stuttering stream on a Firestick

There’s a degree of truth to it. Walker didn’t want to sell to Man Utd; he asked for £5m more off them then us, and refused payment in instalments.
-
I bet it will be - and it takes all the joy out of it. I know it’s to avoid bother, but it’s sickening being stuck on coaches for hours to go a few miles down the road

Will Osula: Goal vs Man United nominated for PL Goal of the Season
TheBrownBottle replied to a topic in Football
Yeah, I could see a positional switch a la Joelinton. I agree - I don’t think the lad is useless or owt, just think he’s currently a fair way short -
I didn’t think you were - it was just a general view. I think Howe is a better manager than KK, though. 1991/92 - funny thing is, there was genuine talent in that side, but they couldn’t defend for toffee. We stayed up last day of the season - the last two games (vs Portsmouth at home, vs Leicester away) were ridiculously dramatic

Just say Isak gets injured at the start of next season - do you think that Osula can step in? -

Yes. I’m not seeing potential super talent when he comes on. -
Just my view, but when Howe eventually leaves there should be a statue in his honour. KK should have a stand named after him.
-
Yep - if we’d been relegated to Division Three it was on the cards
-
The club doesn't exist without Keegan KK remains no.1
-
That’s great - he comes across as a sound bloke. Clever fella too
-
Yep, all round top gadgie is Shaka

I’m happy with Howe coaching him of course, but I don’t see that the lad would be harmed by six months dropping a division. He can’t be backup next season, we need a better second striker -

I still think Howe’s right - I haven’t seen him make much happen tbh. He’s a fair way short - I would send him on loan to a second or third tier club next season and see if the lad can kick on. He can’t be backup to Isak next season. -
We support clubs who have qualified for the Champions League despite not being champions for over a century and a half between us
-
Not recognised by UEFA is the problem - though it is recognised by FIFA. Barcelona are happy to include it in their major honours list - that’ll dee me
-
I think the League Cup is harder to win given the competition - but the prestige of the UEFA Cup remains far greater
-
The UEFA Cup still sits levels above the League Cup for me. Of the six trophies it’s possible to win, the League Cup is at the bottom of the pile

‘We knew all about it, but didn’t say anything about it, even though we would normally report on every daft rumour ever’ They’re Absolutely full of shite

It’s more procrastination and inefficiency than diligence at PIF
