I still think Villa are more likely to finish higher - though we never know

As soon as it struck it you could see it. I thought the commentators would start babbling about how it was a cross. They didn’t in fairness. Some hit that.

He meant it

Bruno was lucky there mind

Yep - we don’t half struggle against decent sides at home mind.

Jesus wept

Brighton losing isn’t a good result mind

Top five is the target tbf

Jesus wept Pope lad

Christ both wingers should do better

Inverted full backs to match inverted wingers. Proper woke nonsense.

There we gan. Perfect timing.

Did anyone expect an easy game? Our track record at home vs sides like Brentford isn’t great this season

Absolutely

‘Yes, we know you have a friendship because of something that did happen a while ago. But don’t forget about the thing which didn’t happen even longer ago’ I think this is gaslighting.

Annoying watching matches with no trophy at the end

Their Bilbao obsession is the weirdest thing out there. It would be like us claiming a connection with Juventus, even though real history tells us that their kits were adopted from Notts County’s. I’m not aware of Southampton claiming a connection; besides, why would adopting a team’s kit over a century ago make a connection? I’m not aware of Leeds & Real Madrid talking about the special connection between their clubs due to Don Revie adopting Real’s colours for Leeds. They’re a genuinely peculiar bunch.

I still love the bloke, and he’s right up there for me re NUFC managers. In terms of favourites, he’s on the podium - and he’s second only to KK in terms of positive impact on the city (in terms of self-worth - Benitez coming in after years of being told what we are by Ashley’s acolytes in the press was a massive boon to us. He gave the support so much belief again). NB that’s not to say that Howe hasn’t - it’s just that the positivity around the club isn’t only driven by Howe.

🤮

projection (noun) the unconscious transfer of one's desires or emotions to another person: "we protect the self by a number of defence mechanisms, including repression and projection"

You don't think it is odd in the slightest that the cost of the women's team isn't counted for FFP, yet the inflated sale of the women's team is?

Racist Beefy was a shit Beefy reboot tbh.

Yep. I’d also take issue with the idea that derby days are class They’re not - they’re anxiety-ridden nightmares, and even when we win it’s more relief than joy. Let the cunts rot.

Likewise - I was down there with my dad; Lee Dixon kicked him from pillar to post. The red card was a disgrace.

Didn’t arse himself at all for a couple of decades until it offered media work, he threw in the towel playing for us halfway through 95/96, wanted out when KK was here, Dalglish was absolutely right to push him out - we looked many times better playing a 4-3-3 after Ginola was dropped. Daveeed was a good footballer, but I never got the feeling at all that he was all that arsed about us.
