Managed to lose my Toontastic account details for a while, just got back in, so here is my slightly delayed reaction to the final: Fucking get in!!!! I was expecting another anti-climactic 2-0 loss with barely a moment to shout for. But not only did the team show up, not only did they compete, but they gave a complete performance. Tactics, effort, quality, bravery, big boy balls - we even scored from a corner, that never happens, what a time to pull it all together! I’ve rewatched the match back in full including all the buildup and celebration afterwards; I’ve done the same with the commentary on 5 live (incidentally they had Isaac Hayden on throughout the match, spoke really well, had great things to say about Howe); I’m still hoovering up all the analysis Youtube can throw at me, podcasts, the radio Newcastle special. Haven’t got bored of it yet 🙂 I had a much longer version of this post, but it’s all stuff that’s been said more eloquently elsewhere, so I’ve trimmed down to keep my gushing at a minimum. Right, Youtube is telling me to watch some bloke called Adam Clery talk about the match, so I’ll go do that…

I managed to get the bairn stood on the right hand pillar of the entrance to Stowell Street so she got a canny view.

Seemingly 2 MLF players liked some of the posts on social media yesterday. Followed by fewm on Ready to Groom https://www.readytogo.net/smb/threads/seelt-and-samed.1652307/

I often wonder whether he has any insight into how; Paying for a good manager + Supporting him with some quality signings = A club that has tripled in value in 3 seasons. It's almost like he isn't the business genius he thinks he is, and not every business can be run like a shitty, cut price trainer shop.

How dare you? Only last week he said he was delighted cos he's "a Geordie, and that never leaves you". It seemed to have left him for the duration of his time as manager when he treated the role like a giant fucking doss though.

I was just watching the footage with envy from here in Australia and this comment had me rolling on the ground

3-1 to us

Shouldn't joke about these thiiiii A A A A R G H

I would absolutely love to see Toonpack and PaddockLad survive 2025.

Pure speculation but I reckon Rafa will have been delighted for the fans and everyone connected with the club whereas I bet our winning the league cup will have pissed off self proclaimed Newcastle fan Steve Bruce. Which is nice

Great when he got all back room staff to hold cup up individually

More likely he's accessed and stolen all the data from the federal databases, he's had access to absolutely everything, so he's got what he wanted Cost cutting and firings just an enjoyable smokescreen for the evil prick

They might be trying to manufacture a move away from Sunderland because who could possibly blame them?

have we had this one? I will never get bored of watching stuff like this, sorry.

You know when they say you don't get funny right wing comedians? Keith overlaps with that sentiment regarding us.

This was a disappointment tbh.

The second pic

Placca Jocks ASSEMBLE!

They apparently had a super duper Flag display yesterday that outshone the town moor event The comments about our Parade will go on today once they climb out of their sister's beds

This. I enjoyed it. The crowds at Haymarket were insane. I also went to the town Moor, then got some food at Jesmond, getting the crowds die down before getting the Metro back. Plenty of portaloos at the town Moor @RobinRobin and @Christmas Tree 👍

Bonnie Tyler being a good example. Also, Last Christmas

@Dr Gloom you're up. New match thread please.

I hope Ashley watched the parade cursing how much money he could have made out of it instead if being a spiteful cunt.

Howe's reaction. Gold.

Opening Gemmill's posts be like:

All of you. FUUUUUUUUCK. OOOOOOOFFFFFFFFFFFF.

You fucking Jonah

Sho-gone RIP

Or they might just be normal balanced individuals. Those two options are definitely not mutually exclusive mind!

Tbf this one's got Carver saying he still thinks he's the best coach in the Premier League on it. None of the others have been so bold.

Well if there ever an 'after the lord mayor's show' occasion this should be it. If we win Eddie is a genius.

Tricky one this- coming off the back of such an incredible performance making the Dippers look ordinary, it’ll be easy to think we’ll turn these inside out. And we will. 5-0. Dan Burn hat trick, all the same header, and two each from Sean Neave and Jamal Lewis.

Trivial? So far over 100 posts trivial.

done

It would be easy to think with Robbie Savage that there's some kind of ironic lack of self-awareness at work, but there really isn't

Did you leave the dungeon yesterday to commune with your fellow citizens?

We were the other side of the bus there 😊

Sky, ITV and CNN?!? had streams of it too so the total numbers were even higher. If I’d been home I’d probably have done the parade and watched the event in a boozer too but it was funny as fuck watching the players celebrate on stage - Bruno stole the show bit Isak was class too. Final word has go to Eddie. He looked like he was having a ball and seemed more relaxed on stage in front of 100k fans and a live global audience than he does being interviewed post-match.

If we take their approach to counting attendance there were actually 600,000 people out today

RTG have decided it's shameful that a crowd about ten times the size of their average attendance turned up today, while simultaneously failing to to comprehend why 300,000 people gathering to celebrate something with a football club made national news. Magedia at it again.

I enjoyed this. It was a bit cheesy, a bit 'local' but the players bought into it, massive turnout, entire city united around the football club. Looks like the stream had 40k watching as well from around the world.. lots of people impressed with the turnout and so on. Positive day for the club, and everyone associated with it.

This fucking plum.
