Jacob Murphy


Recommended Posts

He’s getting married soon. My mother in law recently died and it was her funeral yesterday. The parish priest came round beforehand to organise the service and yes chatting to me and my lass and tells he he’s going to the match. I ask him where he sits and he says he’s in a box .. I ask him who’s and he tells me Jacob Murphy as he knows the family as he went to school with his mam in Birtley many years ago and she’s still goes to mass and has kept in touch. 
 

He then mentions he’s doing Jacob’s wedding soon. 
 

Anyway after he’s left . The bairn (9 years old) comes down the stairs and I say guess what “Father David’s marrying Jacob Murphy”.. he then pauses for a few seconds and replies “ Jacob Murphy’s gay??” 🤣🤣

 

obviously I’d used an outdated turn of phrase but it’s telling that he didn’t question the priests life choice!

 

obviously this is highly irrelevant to the topic  - but I thought it was canny funny.

Needs a song asap. Unless he has one, then I need to know it asap.


To the tune of of Nightcrawlers - Push the feeling on 

 

 

Today is gonna be the day that they're gonna throw it back to Jacob Murphy
By now, Murphy should've somehow realised what Jacob Murphy’s gotta do
I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about Jacob Murphy now

And backbeat, the word is on the street that the fire in Murphy’s heart is out
I'm sure Jacob Murphy’s heard it all before, but you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about Jacob Murphy now

And all the roads Murphy has to walk are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would like to say to Jacob Murphy
But I don't know how

Because maybe
Murphy’s gonna be the one that saves me
And after all
You're my Jacob Murphy

He stared a fan out today that was giving him shit. Second half when a ball was played to him that he couldn't get near to with ball guarded by one of their big lads. Clearly some fans thought he didn't try hard enough. As he was running back up pitch he kept his head turned - staring, possibly mouthing something too. I wasn't only one to notice.

His cross for the one Isak whiffed in the first half was good too. 

 

He's always going to be the kind of player that has one bad moment for every good moment though. 

True - but he also shot from about the halfway line rather than try and find Isak later on

Would've been the greatest goal in premier league history tbf, worth a crack

Good, because this lad is ridiculously underappreciated. If we'd brought in a player for 60m with Murphys stats this season we'd be lauding them.

These are the same people who think Dan burn should run faster and it's his fault he can't.
