You could be right, there's been a huge increase in sales of plastic swords in Sunderland.

I would say that's possible if NATO weren't saying the same thing right on top of it. So if it is a dead cat bounce, all of Europe is riding it.

Neighbour who is a policeman reckons this is being treated by them as very “hands off policing”. No special trains, fans just allowed to meander to the ground. Sounds like a recipe for trouble.

Isn’t this just the usual dead cat stuff - Get Reeves and Starmer off the front page.

Aye it was pretty good. Still need to watch the last 30 minutes as I fell asleep. (Tiredness not the movie).

If you view every decision FIFA makes through the lens of making money, everything they do makes perfect sense. Unfortunately, they’re supposed to be a sporting organisation

Racist bastards you lot dont know the first thing about Arabs do you, they're more likely to go to a football stadium to hurl abuse at another Arab than support him because he's a muslim

No I get that but the cringefest ceremony with Trump and the ticket prices are a new level of ridiculous. Alongside other relatively smaller things that might not have been noticed everywhere, like the delayed suspension for Ronaldo. Is there a precedent for something like that? On the verge of making the game look like a complete joke at this point and noone seems to be able to do anything about it.

Probably would’ve still been on strike. I don’t think the club realistically had that option. He burnt all his bridges

My mate bought a programme at RP in the late 80s and I had a glance before the game, one of their regular features must've been interviewing a fan. One of the standing questions was 'How do you celebrate a win against the Mags?"* Which I thought was odd considering games against them were pretty sporadic for about twenty years previous and we'd had the upper hand which KK, (peace be upon him), was only going to further enhance. *His answer? He said he'd go into Newcastle the following week and buy a video of it as it would be sold out in Sunderland but I don't think NUFC would be releasing a VHS of a derby defeat so I think he'd have been a bit disappointed at a waste of a journey tbh. (They didn't ever beat us that day nor ever again at RP).

I'll never forget his dying words.... (Sniff) "Elf'n'safety gorn maad, innit! When oi was a la ...arrrrrrrgggghhhhh!" [Splat]

Reminds me of an entry in Roger's Profanasaurus... Kloppa (noun) Example: "She had a kloppa wetter than Rod Hull's roof"....

They do win the Palm d'Dave though.

chick flicks don't usually win the palme d'or

I think he's having one of his funny turns.

Jings, you'd have utterly destroyed my argument if I'd only mentioned social media followers.

wtf you on about? it was absolutely brilliant

Do you often let your lass post on here?

We were talking in the office the other day about it - 30 years ago when they had the world cup it was a sporting event and I cannot recall Clinton anywhere near it. It's polticised to fuck these days - it always was, but this is insane!

Over 10 million less than Karim Benzema.

Aye ... but Joelinton would spend the next 89 mins 30 seconds trying to draw out that foul that'd end up costing him a red.

I have faith in my ability to prove that I was talking about Thunderbolt Ross
