In all honesty I think Charnley will back Bruce right up until Ashley tells him to sack him. Then he will text Bruce the decision and turn his phone off.

Charnley’s incapable of making a decision until the decision is effectively made for him. Don’t expect a sacking until at least after the January transfer window closes

"Fankf for fticking up for me, PaddockLad"

As if he thinks any fan is listening to Ryder, the negativity comes from having arguably the worst manager the club has had in my lifetime tbh. A bloke that absolutely does not deserve to manage a PL club, as he has failed everytime he’s had the chance and is failing now. I think this is one of Bruce’s worst traits (he has a fucking ton btw what an absolute cunt of a bloke he is ), I’m fairly convinced he’s angling to get fired at this point between having a thinly veiled back and forth in the press with the club and then taking a trip to Portugal seemingly without telling his bosses, if you’re going to do that then don’t get wound up when the fastest dancer in the North East chips off at you for being a bit of a skiver. I really do find Bruce to be an utter fucking cunt. I genuinely don’t see him having any redeeming qualities, very easy to dislike. I don’t need the Knight Ryder to tell me that.

Cowards in every position?

Those two blokes look like Lord of the rings extras that have left their make up on. Trogdor and Elfman or something

You can blame the owner and you can blame the players but the manager is a clear symptom of the demise. Of course Shearer won't come out and publicly say that.

Ashley’s a gambler.If you’ve £2b or £3b in your pocket,selling the club for £250m after relegation may well be an acceptable amount.With the shite we have in the first team squad,he must realise that there’s a very good chance we won’t bounce back at the first attempt.

She was nice, but this was better…

Planning

Aye. 👍

I had a very tedious summer job putting those on (after testing the beer glasses) about 30 years ago. It was at the metrology lab on Saltmeadows Road in Gateshead.

Anyone else about my age also fancy Chris Evert btw?

At last! Some good news.....

I wouldn’t be either if I lived in Scarborough.

Teesiders man

Well you were half right.

So ‘yes’ then

What a little bitch Bruce is.

Is that a warehouse in the background

Great player but injury prone unfortunately. We don't seem to have much luck with strikers, the good ones are always crocked and the shit ones never end up with a scratch.

Real meeting of minds. Special relationship no 125.....

First month into a new season & its quite impressive 19th in the league, most goals against & out of the League Cup.

It took them 11 attempts to get a manager to agree to sign last time, I don’t think Charnley can be arsed with all that paper work. Theyll back Bruce to an absolutely ridiculous degree, quite unique in the context of modern football simply because it’s the easiest thing to do.

The Mail is obviously contemptible but The Express? I don’t even know what to make of it, it’s so ridiculous.

Shearer on MOTD “I hate what my club is, or has become. “It has been a long time now. “It is a hollow and it is an empty football club. “There is no hope or ambition and I’m pretty sick of it to be honest. “It is copy – paste – repeat, every season.” Gary Lineker: “What could change it?” Alan Shearer: “Well they give players that have been at the football club new contracts because they can’t sell them on. “Then they have the excuse they can’t bring other players into the football club because those players are being paid a salary. “It is cheaper to keep them on the books rather than buying other players. And the fans deserve better. “Every manager has the same problems. “As I say, it is copy – paste – repeat, every season.

Good job he's got a thick skin and can take criticism

Focus on the presenters reaction That and how the bloke just styles it out has me in stitches.

There’s so much going on in all the SAFC TV videos

Just noticed the arm sling

As if he’s blaming the papers for the “negativity”, specifically the chronicle. Who even reads the papers these days? Even the Chronicle website is indecipherable due to a million pop up adverts. He’s spent his entire time here making excuses whilst protecting Ashley/Charnley & then they’ve just spat in his face. Can’t wait to see the back of him, he’s an awful manager and seemingly a worse person.

His being a shite manager presiding over an increasingly shambolic team might be partly responsible for some of the negativity

What a fucking wanker

Not Wimbledon obviously but Emma Raducanu’s performance throughout the US Open has been incredible. She’s 18 and with very little tournament experience never mind grand slams but to actually win the thing without dropping a set has to put her among the best British sporting performances in recent memory.

It would be my first question. Ok, maybe the second after asking about the bacon…

Jesus isn't just weeping but also punching into the floor then yanking his own beard.

As if Brewcey will share his booze with anyone

COWARDS!

BINGO!

It was a very cynical move. He’s kind of right about India being great for test cricket but that’s largely because it’s important to Kohli and he’s incredibly influential. Doesn’t mean the importance of test cricket in India will remain as it is if that ceases to be the case. Scheduling the IPL to start right after the England tour finished wasn’t exactly a great idea either. The ECB are only arsed about the money too like so it’s difficult for them to be too critical, both from the POV of the hypocrisy and not wanting to vex the BCCI

It’s what they voted for

KD'dyp

I was all set to tune in to the highlights to see 90s drug casualty PaddockLad come up with a new roadside character every bit as iconic as the Devil at the TdF. And yet here is just confusedly taking photos of the wrong riders on the side of the road.

The way Lascelles is going, he’ll try it, miss by ten yards and end up breaking Fernandez’ leg instead

And if enough of our players are sent off trying, the match will be abandoned and we might get away with a 3-0 forfeit.
