Just looking at the response over on Bluemoon. In a nutshell: - They weren't arsed at all about the game beforehand. - When teams were announced they were supremely confident that they would win because our lads were mostly shite and their line up very competitive. - First half they were sublime and their players were gods. - Second half their players were all coming back from injury or kids, plus Newcastle were a really dirty team and that mean Joelinton was bullying them. They were now arsed about the game though due to the indignation of losing. - At final whistle, in response to Sky stating things like "famous victory" and "no one gave Newcastle a chance at the outset", there were comments about how they had made 8 changes, how no one should have expected them to win, etc. - Lots of hate on NUFC in general, but I picked out this one just because I think it speaks to a wider point that these fans aren't getting: The reason we are no longer likeable is that we are actually trying to win and compete. I'm sure if we went back to being the sort of side that their second string could put 4 past and call it a day, we'd be back to being a benign, pitiable club that simply wasn't important enough for anyone to have negative feelings around. Now we're kicking these clubs out of competitions, we're suddenly detestable.

This is a piss free zone as the Geordie Boys continue their glorious winning ways. Eddie knows best, onwards and upwards.

That's exactly what Shearer said after Arsenal last year - everybody liked us when we turned up and gave them 3 points without a whimper but now we're competing all of a sudden we're dirty cheats. Fuck them all.

Yeah, I get that and that would be pathetic. They need to plant a new tree I guess. For me it's partly the loss of an icon but more the idiocy of human nature. Found my photo, here is a copy. Taken November 2010, much later than I had remembered.

Yeah? Well maybe afterwards you can tell me how your 'ass-cot served'.

You forgot the honey monster

The thing with the likes of Dummett and Lascelles and the "they're shit" comments, all over the place pre-game, is that the truth is they're not actually shit. To be even involved at this level means they are very good footballers. Absolutely they're not "elite" and compared to elite players they'll not look as good/will be prone to more mistakes, but put very good footballers into a team with good coaching and a solid method/plan and a sprinkling of elite around them and they'll do a job as we saw.

"Make sure our man at the game approaches Don Goodman before kick off, under no circumstances is he to mention Sunderland at all in the Newcastle United v Manchester City game. Any trouble then tell him we'll influence sky to drop him."

If they’re the only ones watching the coverage should be non-stop Newcastle seeing as it’s all the fuckers care about.

Listen, this wasn't an invitation to start one of your terrible pun runs. It's too soon.

I like this new persona for Luke Edwards. The Treequalizer.

Shows a different side to the stealing a living viewpoint. Interview made me a bit emotional ngl

He probably knows enough to be one of the physios 🙂

He's had injury issues and isn't a top end of the PL defender but Dummett's passion and effort for the club has never been questioned, seems like a decent lad, hope he gets to move into coaching here if that's his future.

dummet was a bit more suspect positionally at times but i fucking loved that crunching sliding tackle late on. i've missed the dummet reducer

Agreed. Maybe we've got more central defensive cover than we thought.Man city, even a weakened side, is one hell of a test. 4 clean sheets in a row now, loving it.

Only if it doesn't have any sleepers.

i'm finding getting around California like this is not as successful as I anticipated in terms of meeting new people, law enforcement aside.

Erm...we'd be deep in shite if Schar or Botman got injured. Lascelles and Dummett did very well yesterday, credit to them, but let's not go overboard eh? There's a significant drop in quality between them and our first choice CBs. Even with Burn at CB we've already had a taste of how it can go agianst top sides. Schar and Botman have been world class, they've gone up against the best and come out on top week after week.

Littering too, cunts

Stop the press. We have a new addition. Why aye!

Fair. You can do it yourself 👍🏻

So the teams at the top of the league press more in the opponent's third? This is revelatory stuff.

Lets not collectively suck his cock off one League Cup performance against Man City's second string.

think i got some dirt in my eye

It was a fucking joke Mr Spreadsheet.

Nice to see Sven in the team photo and Eddie always at the back letting the players take the moment. Wilson I hear had to run off early, said something about sorting out a leaky fridge

'You are charged with a heinous offence of a very serious.....' 'cough, cough' '....of a very serious matter and furthermore a sexua......' 'cough, cough, cough' '.....sexual act and.....' 'cough, cough, cough.' '.....I say! Have you tried sucking a fisherman's friend?' 'm'lud, I'm in enough trouble as it is!'

But apart from that, everyone's OK?

Had sort of a perfect day today. More or less got a promotion sorted even though I won’t have to deal with murderers in future which was fun (for me). Later getting told that quite a few officers are sad about it. Got a good but not lenient sentence at a trial even the defendant accepted as just. Beating City with a very good performance in the second half. Opening some nice beer being very happy now.

The silly cunt probably put the whole thing on Tik Tok.

The irony is, I've known more self aware E Coli than that cunt Keith. Most the SMB can even see what an absolute brain donor he is.

Mess with the Treequalizer and Yew'll be sorry

Cold rage here. They’ve killed something that’s been alive for longer than anyone, and why? What possible fucking reason could you have to do this? What’s really making my piss boil, is that they’ve also fucking ruined the future of the place. What was nice about it was that it was totally open to everyone- no barriers, fees, you could stand and take photos, have your bait, kids play around it. All that’s fucked now - even if they managed to plant a mature replacement, it’ll be fenced, monitored, and possibly charged for. Utter, utter, cunts. Whoever has done this, knows exactly what they’ve done too- some fucking skip rat hasn’t just turned up and hacked it down. Felling something that size cleanly, as they’ve done, takes experience. Which makes it all the worse.

Come at me again about Rapinoe and I'll strangle you with your own cravat.

I am absolutely fucking raging about this

I can answer that one.

You don’t have to worry about a German knowing his sausages tbh Vorsprung durch Bratwurst

If I was Dawn Thewlis I'd be asking for police protection. Their obsession with her is worrying, fucking tapped.

He’s just seen the buffet’s open.

We could adopt mackem behaviour and go private. But, we’d run the risk of then unleashing a tsunami of filth.
