Nice to see my grandad’s old team Plymouth scoring an injury time winner against the mackems 👍🏻

Eddie shouldn’t have to answer for what Mitchell said, says Craig Hope who asked him about what Mitchell said

Just reminded me of a lad at school who had a really thin knob which earned him the nickname butcher’s pencil

If Forest do hang on there'll be some glum faces in the hotels in Merseyside tonight and John Lennon airport tomorrow.

My Dad took me to this game when I was a nipper. Sixpence in old currency for the programme and I do remember a vendor who wandered along the touch line shouting 'peanuts, tanner a bag'. 2-0 to the Toon (Iley, Penman) which confirmed our promotion from the old Div.2.

there needs to be more wanton violence towards the likes of hope, edwards and taylor, that would teach them I reckon. who can ever forget bruce's death stare to lee ryder? or laurent robert grappling with alan oliver and spilling his tea because he gave him a 3? the chronicle never steps put of line these days.

Is this when CT finally.... Nah, forget it 🙂

The bottom line in this whole fiasco is that Mitchell has been very unprofessional in his choice of language and has raised a lot of hackles. Sounds like he’s strolled in like Billy big balls. He could have easily praised past recruitment efforts (under difficult circumstances), while laying out a new way forward, but instead took his knob out and pissed in everyone’s cornflakes. It beggars belief that Eales hasn’t got them together in the 9 days since and sorted a way forward prior to yesterdays presser.

Always first with the topical gags.

Hahah GET TO FUCK SLOT HEAD

Palace doing well with their generational talent 😂

That’s unfair. Alex Bruce would never had a career in football but for Wor Steve.

Am in here somewhere… v Palermo 2006…

just found this one amongst them, the night we took anfield, arguably the best away end I've ever been in.....

when we moved house at the beginning of the year I was sorting through the cupboard under the stairs and found these. I've never really been a programme buyer but for whatever reason I did actually buy a fair few during the 83/84 promotion season. there's most of the home programmes including keegan's farewell game against liverpool. bit disappointed there's not more of the away games ones there actually as I don't think I missed an away game that season. the oxford one is from 1990, it was my daughter's first ever match, she was 7 weeks old!

It does, but you just can't see where, because of ALL THE FUCKING POP-UP ADS

This morning Craig has basically written a review of his 2 pieces from yesterday I won’t link it but it says Eddie shouldn’t be having to answer questions about what a senior colleague has said. He’s undoubtedly right about that but it’s all driving traffic to the Mail website. Which I think is the point of three articles in 24hrs about someone’s nose being put out of joint

Aye, aside from Wood (when we were desperate) and the Greek keeper (PSR fix) is there a single player we’ve overpaid for? I think our first team business has been excellent up until the summer.

I dunno, think of what you could be like if she was doing it right.

Has anyone ever been clever/funny enough to refer to Hugh Hefner as a fanny magnate, or do I wear the crown here?

Nervous excitement. I’m off to the t20 finals day at Edgbasron then a pub debrief followed by rave in Digby. #prayforgloom

Ehrmagerd! Mitchell said he thought the transfer policy wasn't fit for purpose and then Eddie turned around and said I stand by the signings and then Simon Bird said do you not want to slag Mitchell off publicly and like Eddie like totally stared at Simon and said OMG Simon you are like totally putting words in my mouth and then Louise Taylor - total bitch btw - she goes hey Eddie I reckon your bromance wiv Mitchell is like totally on the skids and Eddie was like FUMIN' you could totally see it in his face and he said look here Louise you slag I'm so sick of you and your stupid questions and anyway Jason is the only one for me so you need to just shut your fat face and then it ended with Eddie like totally storming off the stage and OMG he looks so annoyed I wouldn't be surprised if him and Mitchell are gonna have a proper fight and stuff.

Remember. The table counts for nothing until 10 games in. Unless we go second tomorrow, in which case, look at it all you want

Everton.

Harry Roberts is our friend Is our friend Is our friend Harry Roberts Is our friend He shoots coppers Shoots the bastards with a gun With a gun With a gun Shoots the bastards with a gun. Harry Roberts.

They're benefiting from residual fitness from the previous manager. They'll be blowing out their arses from the 20 minute mark before too long.

Ex copper. Probably retired at 40 on a full pension too.

Fucking dipper is seething and I'm loving it 😂

I thought the mackems were playing derby today? I'm obsessed tbh.

GREEN ARMY! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 (Contractually obliged to add “long old poke” ☺️)

It doesn't matter how good she is if you're trying to build the great wall of china with a couple of kilos of sand, cement and a handful of bricks.

I can’t listen to them anymore like. I tried a while back and although I used to like them I find Perry Farrell’s vocals are really fucking awful

First part, there usually is, nothing to see here, professionals will disagree at times but will act professionally throughout, all perfectly normal. It has been WAY overblown by the press (see your second point).

Tbf and in defence of our lass, there’s probably more meat on my finger.

Can someone explain to be exactly what Darren Eales does? Is he Lee Charnley in a bad wig? We’ve had zero movement on the stadium and the new training ground, his first solo transfer window was a shambles and now he has the two most important off field employees trading barbs in the press. Clearly Mitchell has been brought in and promised a remit that hasn’t been explained or agreed to by Howe. It shouldn’t be difficult to get the two of them in a room and thrash this out Eales appears to be absent in all this.

We'll go back to CT when I get my propers for fanny magnate, and not a moment before.

Waddle's thinking, 'fuck you, I'll not be here next season.'

The rest of them are laughing, Wes Saunders is thinking I'm drinking that later

WTF will we do without him?

AH tonight..... "Anyways, who cares about work?"

Another sad as fuck thread by them with the predictably sad as fuck responses. https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/rivalry-with-newcastle.1640668/page-10

That's the spirit. Mid-holiday crisis, get back on the tequila. Also, they sell all sorts of hangover cures in Mexican pharmacies.

probably a side effect of a minor sprain medication.

u ok hun?

Shall I watch Eddie's press conference, @LongTimeAdmireror has @Gemmills running commentary just about covered it?

All Mitchell ever said was that it could be argued that we'd overpaid slightly (which in some respects he's correct and Howe would probably agree) and now the NE sports press are trying to set up a fucking white collar boxing match. Hope will be getting on the blower to his old mate Wraith get the ball rolling since that's (one of) his grift(s).
