It’ll get to deadline day and there’ll be ‘we could still do with another defender’ or something regardless like.

What team doesn't say that?

Haven't the owners said in an ideal world, we won't do too much business in January?

Yep and rightfully so tbh, we saw the way clubs tired to rip us off this January.

[Emotic]

January transfers will be based on where we are at that point. If we have a crack at Europe (maybe sitting anywhere 5th to 8th), and there is an identifiable weakness, we'd do some business.

Am sure Hayden tells Wilson the atmosphere was the best he has seen in the six years he's been here

Yeah he did definitely

The January window was terrible for me. I had fuck loads of work on but was absolutely obsessed with reading transfer rumours instead. Absolutely can't be doing that again 

Clear your diary then.

These are my favourite and this actually captures the noise in the ground properly.

Love how Targett literally has the sweet, awkward demeanour of a chartered accountant who has been pressed into being a left-back That nervous "ha ha ha" after the Bruno intervention was class.

[Yorkie]

The camerawork has improved quite a bit; notice it especially on the interviews.

Yeah that's what he was saying. I actually feel a bit gutted for the players who are going to be moved on, there are some who are clearly desperate to stay but just aren't good enough. I think a few were out there saying their goodbyes on Sunday and that's why they were hanging around long after the game was over. The Athletic ran a good story on it today, don't know if anyone has posted it on here yet, not been online much today.

Aye. I mentioned it somewhere else today. Some players who have been good, loyal and effective servants for us in the last would have shed a tear or two seeing what they saw on Monday knowing that they won't be here next season to enjoy it again.

 

Many thanks to them. Definitely won't be hating them whenever they play against us in the future.

 Glad they captured the bloke running across the Gallowgate with the Milburn flag. Think he did three lengths and was knackered. It became a relay and two others took over.

Thanks' to The Bonk, I now have one on.

[The Bonk]

Thanks, @Doc. I'll DM you when I need a blue pill at some point in my near future.  

[Doc]

Got loads left mate, they don't work anymore.

[The Bonk]

 Nooooooooooooooooo! 

[Doc]

Joking mate but, if at some point they don't, just stick that vid on.

3 days later and I'm still smiling.  Downloading MNF and watched the whole match again.

 

Arsenal walked into an ambush.  I was there with my 2 lads and my dad, whose 78.  The smiles and joy I saw from them I got quite emotional......I think we are going to become a force again....cant wait.  HWTL

It was a fucking great night like. 14th in the league and the fans and team put a show on like that.

 

I have been going consistently for around 20 years, aside from a couple of seasons under Pardew and Bruce. Been in some great atmospheres at SJP but that on Monday was different. Was in the Strawberry Corner and could see the Platinum Club constantly on their feet singing, the Leazes and East Stand (never thought I’d say this) were bouncing. Imagine we win something!

It’s mental reading threads like this about us after we played with no apparent game under Bruce for so long.

Aye, Howe obviously watched Conte's Spurs last Thursday go for Arsenal in a mid press instead of a high one and adopted the same approach. And voila, they couldn't get the ball out their midfield, couldn't get Ødegaard on the ball which is why they struggled like fuck to create a single thing in our third.

[GEFAFWISP]

Joelinton casually tasked with marking two players. What a guy.

 More like he can't be arsed to get all the way down to the final tweet that highlights it's due to changes made by Howe and just sits there red faced asking his little Alex "why didn't they do that for me???".

Would love him to do a tactics masterclass youtube vid. Would start with the little pitch and the pogs and end somehow with him holding up a fucking Reuben.
