Weird how he's treated like a legend there man. :lol:

 

35 games, 80 odd conceded, a relegation, then buggered off. 

Yeah but they live vicariously through him, his success they feel like they are a part of, because they know there's fuck all other talent to come out of their rat nest

That’s as routine as it gets. 
 

Sunderland were utterly dire, imagine putting on a load of shite like that in your big derby match. 
 

Also quite funny watching Beale try to get a bunch of league 1 and championship level players to play out from the back against high level PL players. 
 

A bit like telling your dog you need it to do the cooking, then giving it two weeks to win Masterchef.

I think Joelinton going off was massive. Gaps opened up. But also with the fact Sunderland had no choice but to have a go. I don’t think that was an energy sapping performance from us, we were in total control. 


Yep. Miley doesn’t have the athleticism that Joelinton does and is understandably naive at times positionally and perhaps ball watching/getting drawn to it all the while. 
 

To be fair, not many people have the ability that Joelinton has. Plays 2-3 positions at once. Best player on the park first half, for me.

My favourite Mackem rumour is that he had a clause in his NUFC contract that he couldn’t play vs Sunderland.

 

This is what the daft cunts tell themselves, and they actually buy it.

 

I can really see him saying ‘look, if I have to play for youse against my beloved Sunderland, I’d rather stay in the sausage factory and kicking the ball around for Tow Law’

 

They’re unreal

This is so true. The ref was shocking but it was great knowing every decision stood and there wasn’t going to be a 5 minute pause after anything contentious.

I disagree a bit, they do play it out from the back in the league more than most, they've been trying to play better football and why they've come closer to promotion. I don't think you should super change how you play for cup game against better opposition, but i was not surprised with a general lack of intensity of thought they'd be well up for it and sprinting to close us down all the time and hitting us on counter, but they never really did anything convincing

From a bloke who made his biggest payslips while he was in France. 

 

He never comes across as the brightest, but didn't know he was far right :lol: :anguish:

The alternative to playing out the back would be to hump it long from goal kicks. Schar and Botman would have gobbled those up no problem too. But at least for them to the ball would be in Newcastles half. Thankfully Beale is thick as fuck and didn’t change tact

Get ready for this take on it in the Sunday media.
