mrs tbd.... can we switch over now? me.... no mrs tbd.... why not? you've been to newcastle, you've watched half the ipswiich game and you've watched the entire man utd game and you hate them. surely that's enough football? me.... no, I want to see the post match interview and the dutch nonce squirm. mrs tbd..... you're a cunt. me.... aye.

Southgate is available now.

3 paragraphs, 5 or 6 points raised and in all of them he's irrefutably correct. it's nothing short of miraculous.

Got MOTD on here. The Arsenal game. In the second half Calafiori commits his second bookable offence. Regulation yellow card, no question about it. Ref does fuck all about it and then books the Leicester player for waving the imaginary card at him. Its 2-2 at this point, game on a knife edge, and the ref completely bottles it. It's the sort of decision where you know he's got Arteta's crybaby press conference and an Arsenal club statement in the back of his head. They should have been docked points for that, they knew exactly what they were doing.

he loves us again and he was tremendous yesterday. without doubt the most handsome, bindipping, talented chook ever to lace up a pair of football boots.

It gets better. What a thrust

The resemblance with Miggy and his bairn is unreal. Looks like someone has brought a Miggy Almiron Funko Pop to life

@Dr Gloomand @wykikitoonyou thick fucking no-reading-comprehension cunts! @Kid DynamiteI'm simply copying you in for information. This is what I wrote. I'm arguing AGAINST Shearer who says it wasn't a penalty. In other words, I'm saying it was definitely a penalty. Given and Shearer are who I'm calling dinosaurs. They don't want an incident like that to be a penalty, but the game has moved on, and if they want to be pundits in 2024, they need to stop claiming an incident like that isn't a penalty. It's been a penalty for at least a decade. Just reply to this and apologise. No need to start a new thread and I won't respond to your PMs.

Missed watching the game live for a family birthday party. Watching it this morning I was very impressed with our performance. Hopefully now that sets the standard that we take into subsequent performances. I think Howe got the selection and tactics spot on today. It was brave without being reckless. And solid without being passive. There certainly seemed to be an attitude adjustment compared to the Fulham match. Almost everyone had a good performance (despite the odd error here and there). Just need to bottle that apply it against everyone else and we'll be flying again. All-in-all, proof positive (if it was needed) that this is still a very very good side. Credit to Howe and co. for getting a resounding response. Onward and upward.

CT man. You can't even enjoy Man United melting down without worrying it might ruin things for us. Chill out ffs.

It's 3 game weeks for all the lads in Europe for the foreseeable now. Villa just came off a 3 game week with the League Cup and they've now got Bayern on Wednesday and Man United on Sunday. If we keep heading in the right direction, the fixture pileup for these teams should do us a load of favours.

Thanks for reading my post.… …You heard it here first

good and proper.

I don't share the vitriol for Shearer and Given but the first bit is so blatantly true that it barely even needs saying anymore. It's also true outside the box where players so often do the same to win a free kick (Bruno for example does it routinely), get to the ball first and any subsequent contact from the opposing player is a foul. I don't have any issue with this rule/interpretation either. If you come for the ball and don't get it just about any impediment you subsequently offer to the player who did get the ball can be adjudged a foul. The rule is it's a free kick if you "impede a player with contact". There's contact and Gordon's access to the ball is impeded therefore it's a foul. Same with Joelinton.

no cowies involved with that cunt on the right, been gurning from the minute he was born.

Everyone loves them and hates the mags anarrl. Watford channeling their cup final spirit against premier league giants Sunderland.

At least he didn’t bring his kid out on the pitch with him - the ultimate crime

I have Sky Sports News on but haven’t seen Steve Parish on there. He was all over it when they were flying. Come on then, you daft cunt. Pipe up now

Someone won't appreciate the badge kissing though.

Or about three days late

i think essembee flounced too. His brain couldn’t cope when BUJ7 turned into the next Patrick Vieria

He’s got as much right to be King as the real one tbh.

Tonali kept drifting over to the RW and joining in triangles in tight spaces with Trippier and Murphy. Made a big difference in helping to keep the ball against a high press. Got no idea why Howe has been reluctant to start him with Bruno and Joelinton. They looked class today

Wor Lass has just said to me 'we've got a Newcastle office, what's your thoughts on moving here' I've told her I'll put the house up for sale tomorrow

Brilliant performance from AG10 today. Absolutely our man of the match and much more like his performances from last season.

Just boarded the Harwich-Hoek van Holland ferry. I was going to read my book and sip mocktails in the deck lounge like the classy motherfucker I am, but I might have to retire to my windowless cabin (don't get too excited, MF) and watch MOTD2 instead

dutch nonce gone before the strictly halloween special?

1-3, ball comes off the bar and hits our keeper, Martin Thomas on the head and deflects back into the goal for their winner. On the FT whistle Bruno runs up to their keeper and boots him up the arse then legs it. We're awarded a bye into the next round as it's decided AFC Wimbledon are only half a club of a former club who weren't a proper club in the first place and the cartel has already bribed/put the fear into the ref to fuck us over against Chelsea in the next round presuming we would've got through so want to get their money's worth.

fucking hell lads, it’s too early to be reading this

That’ll be King Barlow to you

I can recommend a great elocution tutor if you make the move- Tadger Armstrong, lives in Percy Main. Mrs. W. is a Scab, isn’t she? No worries- much like Callum, he does couples too.

I grant you a royal pardon. The king doesn’t have time to read every single post. Sometimes he relies on his advisors.

Thought he was brilliant today. They cut off the lines to that diagonal ball to the LW that he loves, so he just started playing 50-60 yard rakers over the LB or through the middle instead. Shame he didn't connect with that header properly when he went into full Philippe Alschar mode.

When he's getting tired he's getting his pocket picked which is disappointing because he either isn't getting/hearing the call or his decision making is being affected by a lack of fitness. There was one instance late in the game where he was waiting for the ball to come to him which every footballer knows you just cannot do. He's so strong on the ball, he just needs to shield it better when he's tired.

Fucking have it

I reckon we'd have finished top 4 with him available last season. When you think there was a good 2 month spell where we had a midfield of Bruno, Longstaff & Miley (nowt against them as they grafted their bollocks off and the other is still raw), but those games against the likes of Bournemouth, Luton & Everton home and away. We got 3 points out of 18 there alone. We were only 8 behind Villa in the end. He wasn't exactly Pirlo today but his intelligence and that sort of swagger of "I'm as good as yous" today stood out. He's going to be massive.

Loved that today. Been waiting for a good performance to match the results and we got it. Similar performance v Everton with a win and this has turned into a very good start. Tonali just looks a classy player. Was hoping our midfield would match up to theirs today and it did. Think the top.4 will be City, Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea but 5th is there for us if we build on this and that will hopefully mean CL this time.

How's Minteh doing? Asking for a friend

thread . .. ... ....

I couldn’t cope if they sold us and bought Liverpool. I’ve only just gotten over the time they ditched us to buy Inter Milan
