Cunha is a luxury player Man Utd don’t need.

 

Wolves were a better team without him.

 

he spent a greater % of matches walking last season than any other player.

 

It's not the only player they will sign. As mentioned right before this post they also don't have Europe next season.

I’d rather a club with genuinely passionate and committed fans do well. Brighton have 30,000 (if that) customers. They’re an insipid, soulless club unfortunately run by smart, ambitious and forward thinking people. 

 

I'm not even sure they're very ambitious tbh. They blew £250m net last summer and just followed the same sort of pattern they have the last 3-4 years instead of using their moment of strength, and ours & Villa's poor transfer position to really have a go at bullying their way in to the top 5 question. They were only a couple of wins away in the end, if they'd gambled they might have hit the jackpot.

There’s no way Man U and Spurs will bomb as hard next year. I don’t think Man City are going to just turn it around and get back to their best. I think Liverpool will drop and I expect Arsenal to improve. 
 

Think the middle pack of Bournemouth, Brighton, Palace, Fulham will all hold around their levels unless Glasner, Iraola or Silva go. I don’t think Hurzeler is that great so I could see Brighton fading more next season. 
 

I think Forest will drop significantly next season but only down to 11th-12th. Villa will be top eight but I don’t think they’ll get top six. 
 

The 3 promoted clubs will go down and I don’t think there’ll be much competition from other sides for the relegation spots. Everton will finish between 9th - 12th

[James]

Amorim is a worse manager than Paul Jewell and the other players they will buy are shite.

 

this is a club of epic delusions and a severe messiah complex.

 

Last August they were all going around in Zirkzee shirts like he was the messiah. Year before that it was Holjund.

Mackams as big as 2/5 to go down

Like finding it in the street man 

[GallowgatePigeon]

My relegation wish list (Sunlun aside as that's a cop out): Bournemouth, Fulham, Brentford

Enough with the noncey southern spreadsheet shaggers type teams. Yeah, they're well run and make smart signings and hire good managers but their clubs are soulless non entities with no edge, let's get some more scummy northern bastards back in the PL

 

Promotion wish list: Boro, Sheffield Utd & Wednesday

Considerably more chance of Sheff Wed  being in League One than the Premier League the way their owner is carrying on.

Poetry brother, pure poetry.

[Elma]

The promoted three are absolutely going back down, albeit with more money and a better chance of staying up if they make it up again the year after.

 

Wolves, Fulham, Brentford, Palace and Bournemouth all have very good managers and are starting from a much higher point then the promoted three, even if they do lose a player or two.

 

Everton would have been a possible under Dyche but not in the new stadium under Moyes. Forest won't be as high up next year but will easily clear forty points.

 

That leaves Man U and Spurs. I think Postecoglou is limited but they've got way too much to go down. The jury is still out on Amorim and I wouldn't bet on them getting top half, but I'd be stunned if they are as bad next year.

Like your take on this. It’s almost like there might just possibly be an opportunity for an ambitious, already really good, team on the cusp of being a great team to take that seemingly impossible next step.

Need the Bournemouths and the like to stay up. Makes getting home tickets that bit easier when the away team hand 1.5k/2k tickets back over to NUFC to sell to our own fans. Had a ridiculously high queue number for Palace at home but still managed to get tickets up in Level 7 which wouldn't have been available had we played a team with a decent away support.

As a guy from the South who ended up supporting Newcastle when I was 4 years old because I really liked the badge. Noncey southern spreadsheet shaggers type teams is inspired

$50 to the Sir Bobby Charlton foundation should we get into Europe in 26/27 via any competition.

1. Tony Bloom. Massive Cartel cuck and fluffer. Helped push through FFP with your lot vocally. Cunt.

2. Location. Arse-end of the country to get to. Overpriced.

3. Fan base. Non-existent, passionless, Southern.

4. Predatory Minteh deal. 
5. Long term on the pitch nemesis, we always struggle to beat them, especially at the Plastic Card Stadium.

6. Trelford Mills. Google him and the 1983 game. Up there with Uriah Rennie and Jeff Winter in the referee motherfucker stakes.

7. Is an overrated shithole. That beach is fucking minging.

Went recently for a few days, totally underwhelmed by the place. Overrated

[ponsaelius]

I went for four days when we played them two seasons ago. Thought it was vibrant and busy, good places to eat and drink, loads of nice independent shops. Different areas each had a distinct feel to them. Nice long promenade.

 

Was a bit like Blackpool and Bristol had a big gay leftie baby together that doesn't want to grow up and get a real job so can see why that might not be to everyone's taste but definitely more interesting than 90% of these isles in my expert opinion.
