I reckon he’s already told his marras at work that he took the Leazes End singlehanded at the match the other night, and how he chinned like twenty of us before we all backed off

Getting his £1bn+ investment back in £50 notes at a time.

It was the performances this season that were as concerning as the results. Hopefully a corner has been turned, but focussing on league position is a little myopic. We have been playing below our ‘level’ for the majority of the season; less than the sum of our parts. That is why Howe’s position has come under pressure. Again, as I’ve said on here, I think he deserves the time to turn it around, but I can’t pretend that the games I’ve seen this season were all good.

You think that Mehrdad Ghodoussi and Amanda Staveley were selecting the players to be signed and Howe was just there to coach them? Or that Ashworth had that kind of say from 2023? Yeah, not buying that.

As would Man City’s. But let’s not focus on that.

That’ll do. Like being in semis, me. Off to graft with the Osula song rattling around my head

Oof nearly Bruno

Felt like it was coming. Nee panic of course

Nippy little bastard that Wisse. Well played Dubravka

Fuck me that lad can strike a ball

Fair play to whoever came up with using the ‘Tequila’ song

Get in

If they’re not cup-tied they’d be fine

Unlucky again Murphy

Would’ve been harsh for me. Arm down, ball blasted at him

I can’t either! A brace vs Villa in a 3-0 is the only time I can remember him scoring more than one

Jesus wept

Unlucky Murphy

When was the last one?

Yep, agreed

Sumptuous volley that

League Cup matches always have

An angry Joelinton bleeding from the face is not something I’d want to be facing
