Courtesy of @JawD giving me a hotel room where the players were staying during Stevie Harper’s testimonial - a friend an I, both dressed quite smartly, walked straight into the private section of the hotel where the AC Milan players were eating. We sat down in the middle of them and enjoyed a free bar, a free meal and then got our pictures taken with the players. Luckily my friend speaks fluent Italian, I was fucking mortal. Nobody said anything

I bet you've snapped a few of them since moving to the South Coast.

Or alternatively 1 - She missed it completely. In which case it’s a harsh lesson about being careful what you share publicly when in a position of power 2 - She didn’t miss it, but, stupidly/naively, didn’t think it was an issue so shared it anyway. Either way, RLB is at fault.

Fuck off Liverpool. that’s all I have

They hired a hotel tbf. Still get them reported for not following the social distancing, get the title stripped.

Looks like a sailor’s banjo

You're wrong.

Xenophobic that

What the fuck would you know about winning arguments?

A new low.

Mind your stigmatising language there, Phil.

I once tried to sign up to Israeltastic message board, but they were a bit too perpetual.

Oh the agony.

If you head on over to NUFC.COM they have a list of shirts for sale donated by fans. The proceeds go to the foodbank, which I’m sure you’re aware, is desperate for funds after losing match day income. Newcastle West End food bank is the largest in the country & it distributes over 25 tons of food per month to those most in need. The situation was fairly dire before Covid so you can imagine what it’s like now. Some shirts are signed, some are matchworn Anyway they’ve got a bunch of really great shirts up for auction, so if you want something special give it a look!

I said hello to Pav in Prague airport a few months before he died. Wish I’d asked him for a picture. He definitely would have said yes, unlike some other bastards I know

Met loads of toon players as well, it was mental. Had a couple of pints with Keith Gillespie, Darren Peacock & David Ginola Ended up sharing breakfast with Brian Kilcline. Ive got photos but have no place to upload them & can’t figure it out. Storage space on here man.... @Ant help me

Sounds like Starmer got a lecture from Burgon and Corbyn this afternoon. Bet he came off that call feeling thicker than when he went on it.

A nadir

A new low.

I thought this was a bit much from Peter Moore. Talk about kicking a bloke when he’s down.

Too nebbish?

Quite the bop.

Can any readers top that piece of celeb trivia?!

I was just about to say wait and see how many sad Man U twats are gonna report them for breaking social distancing rules. And then you came along.

If they had to win then I’m glad it was under these circumstances

If you can point out where I suggested that the Israeli military have a technique that involves kneeling on anyone's neck, I'll be impressed.

Shame he’s a dickhead

By my reckoning they’ve won 2 European Cups, 3 FA Cups, 4 League Cups, 1 Uefa Cup and 1World Club Cup plus various super cups / charity shields etc in that time

I fully cannot believe you’re watching BT Sport, of all the channels, immediately after this. I’m amazed they’re not just broadcasting McManaman pulling the head off it while singing along to You’ll Never Walk Alone.

Starmer’s conduct since becoming leader, and this in particular, give me a sliver of shiny hope in the murky slick of matte shit that’s UK politics. He’s given Johnson, The Tory party, and Corbyn and the Labour Party, a lesson in what it should mean to be a politician and a leader. PMQs are becoming ever more satisfying as he baits the Skinbag juuust enough for him to lose his blob and take the bait, then he hooks the fucker like Robson Green on a coke-fuelled extreme fishing trip. Every time. This RLB business is another example of his consummate leadership- sees the problem, executes the solution, dusts himself down, “fuck you-what’s next?” I knew he’d be an improvement on Corbyn, I didn’t realise how good he’d be. I hope he doesn’t fuck it up with something daft, like sending pics of him sounding his todger to Dianne Abbott or something.

Yeah, I think racism is over now.

You're so positive and sunny that it overwhelmed my cynicism and I've filled in your damn survey. Well played. Good luck with your studies. EDIT - for anyone else considering it, it'll take you about 2 mins.

We did used to call him fingers

I have others. 😀

I just noticed "threat vector".

I mean yes, it's her fault indeed - no arguments there. And as I said, I think Starmer has handled it superbly. Ultimately I've just got pulled into another argument about technicalities of facts on offer here - I guess because I'm a xenophobe.

Can one of the mods change Alex's name to New Low Alex please?

Finding myself able to believe something is not equivalent to suggesting it happened. Basic comprehension ffs. I will concede to have used Israeli police and special forces interchangeably in this but i hardly see that it's relevant.

You're right, but Gerrard, as much as I hated the high pants diving twat, was a class above Henderson.

"ends 30 years of hurt" because they've won fuck all for 30 years !

Much like Brexit it’s all a game to JRM.

You're all welcome.

Yes you did. You invaded Poland....

Just stop mentioning Israel and Jews in entirely unrelated discussions. It isn't fucking difficult.

If you're a player who's watched their Netflix show, why would you want to go there if you had a viable alternative, especially at a club in a higher position with more recent PL experience? That's it! The 'Friendly cup' games against Norwich are cancelled!
