Howe: doing excellent in his new role Bruce: couldn't find that blasted mole
-
They still boycotting Sugar Puffs? They prefer a full English anyway....but that's just their town and fanbase, not sure about their breakfast habits

Born in Newcastle. Nice synergy. Getstoyourfirstfast but they sadly stopped making the tablets I believe. Shearer did do an add and between times they had the Premier League medley to "She Sells Sanctuary" by the Cult.

Atlanta is twinned with Newcastle too. Nice.
-
Fancy that Leeds game though but, just wish it was an evening kick-off.

Had the seat on the right in front of the toilet going to Coventry on an Armstrong Galley once. My heart sunk every time I seen someone coming up the aisle with a magazine

They used to say we'd bought the league in the 90s. I remember early excuses in 95 'how much money have you's spent?! its obscene' After we beat them in the last game at Roker Sheds it was 'you're team cost X amout more than hours' "fair do's, you were the better team, have more money because you have more fans filling to put money into the club, and thus rightfully are miles ahead of us, after all, we averaged 17,000 last season and you had more than that on the season ticket waiting list, we know our place" wasn't forthcoming

Remains the case that its far easier and far more regular to get to Newcastle. Last time I was over there I had to get a bus to Shiney Row and the X1 to Newcastle from there to Washington and that was from Park Lane. Newcastle to Washington is half an hour on the X1 (every 10-15') and prior to that was 194/294's every 10' transfare to Heworth and a 189 through the estates to Newcastle. Even the old away game clipper went through Washington from Newcastle. All testament to what a mackem fortress it is and has been obviously.

Used to work of Drum Industrial Estate, that's the dividing line I think as it caused chaos on the sat navs trying to find us with the DH postcode. The roads leading to it must be in Gateshead and the premises themselves tipping into Durham.

You might tend to think that Arsenal, pretty football and all that, weren't like that under Wenger but when we played them in top of the table matches wow. Slyly kicking the ball away with an extra tap, feigning injury or tying up laces before set-plays (Robert got senf off for playing on after they kept doing it) and players you wouldn't expect like Bergkamp were dirty as fuck. They all said and we accepted it and hoped to overcome it anyway, that we were too nice as the Entertainers by comparison. Keegan made Gillespie go and apologise to the referee for diving at Blackburn and it was a great dive. Ferguson schooled him how to do it and encouraged that stuff.

Maybe its instinctively looking for something to worry about but at times I do worry about burn out for the manager as much as the players, so have come to see a virtue in the break. He's definitely earned it, though probably would rather just keep on going.

Howe: Ed Bruce: Shithead
-
Howe: I've got a pie chart showing where we didn't press as a team to the best of our ability midway through the second-half and how crucial it was Bruce: I've got a pie
-
Howe: Smart Alec Bruce: Thick Alex
-
Howe: At the crack of dawn let training commence Bruce: get the cones down Steve's Agnew and Clemence
-
Howe: Likes things well drilled Bruce: Likes things well grilled

Nobody that was there thinks that. Potter, the commentators (including one Sunderland fan) so must have been the TV.

"We've got baaally in the middle, everyone but us thinks he's shit, Butler at the back, Quinny in attack, Sunluns gonna finish 7th for a little bit"

Thread about Graham Potter and how bad he is launched at 7.30. Yeah, that must it, 17 bad managers. There's just no other explanation other the reality.

Luck of the draw in the calender year of 2022 to not play a good team in the worlds top league.

The new Kilcline. Got to give him credit like especially for a modern day player.

That's the Leeds win after the Arsenal win under Sir Bobby. Champions League challenge is definitely on. Ffs we'll strengthen in January too.
