  1. TIL 1010 I have seen you on this forum for pretty much as long as I can remember - I think I joined about 2004. So I can reasonably assume that you're at least 18 years old.

     

    Some might suggest that this post is the folly of youth, but I can guarantee there are more mature teenagers out there.

     

    Be ashamed of yourself here, young man, because this is a new low.

  2. Never one to miss an opportunity to advertise to the roughly three people who use this section of the forum... 

    Have a passion for all things geeky and nerdy?

    Enjoy listening to podcasts?

    Fancy hearing four idiots talking toot and making cheap **** gags?

    Then you're in luck my friend! 

    Check us out here... (as with all fledgling podcasts, maybe start from episode 5 😉

  3. He's absolutely right about his quotes being taken out of context, but it's worth pointing out that TNC simply repeated the tweet put out by the Newcastle Chronicle. His ire should be directed at them. 

    It should also actually say something about the mentality of Newcastle fans in general at the moment. Yes it's great to want to win every game but they're a long, long way from being the force they once were. Lovely ambishun from the fans and all, but a young talent playing in a poor team (and, as revealed the same interview, playing with long Covid) shouldn't be subjected to their vitriol because the fans can't accept they're now no better than a Crystal Palace...

    Alan Nixon in the Sun on Sunday reporting Billing likely to Snub NFCC as he likes what Parkers doing at Bournemouth since he arrived, plus Norwich unwilling to meet their £15m valuation.

    Read into it what you will 🙂

    Would wipe my behind on rags like that. It can't even make up its mind whether Billing has turned down a move or we've not met the asking price. Can't be both. 

    Mind you I wouldn't be fussed either way, personally.

    Right french midfield lovely and all that. But I am getting more and more concerned that a striker is not seriously appearing on the radar. 
     

    if we are to have any hope of survival we need another to pitch in with a handful of goals when Pukki is subbed ect. Not talking about a 25 goal a season man just someone capable at this level. Which are other 2 are frankly not!

    Strikers and CBs are notoriously the most difficult position to sign quality players for. Certainly the most expensive, potentially. And with the Euros having just finished there's not much been going on in that area across the board. 

     

    I wouldn't worry yet, in Webber and Farke we trust. Could see one of them being a loan, but needs to be at least equal to the options we already have there. Don't really fancy another Patrick Roberts type yoof with potential as we've already got that in Idah and Omabamadele. 


  6. If you're watching on the Beeb I thoroughly recommend switching to the 5Live commentary through iplayer. Then you don't have to worry about Savage, Keown and the other muppets (although I too think Jenas is good). 

     

    In terms of pundits, there are way too many who just need to get in the laser bin - Shearer, Keane, Souness, Richards... Ugh! 


  7. Kane seems to lack energy and I wonder if he's fully fit. I didn't see much of Spurs last season, but over the last few years they've always seemed to collapse in games they should be controlling, so I can't help but wonder whether their training regimes are up to the high-paced standards of the modern game?
