Holden McGroin

I vaguely remember him prefixing every possible word with cunt and claiming he never watched any American TV/movies. Then he found a nice girl and mellowed a little bit. I think he got ill after that that. Maybe something brain related?

We should test this theory by putting the top 22 Toontastic posters in a hotel together for a month. id imagine 22 wouldn’t return. 😂

If I was Kane, I’d be fuming if he dropped me for San Marino.

The voice of reason. You still feeling okay mate?😉 In my defence, did anyone really think he’d pick Henderson to play after that retirement move?

I agree with what you’re saying but I’m looking from a bigger picture and this game doesn’t really matter. I’m not arguing certain players shouldn’t be given a chance over players not playing or playing at a county league level. He probably should just be judged on his results. He flies through qualifiers and has done well in the finals. Wasnt Bobby ripped apart with the nation calling for his head? (I think this could have peaked after a 1-1 draw in Malaysia ?)

Of course I’m being facetious. I didn’t even watch the game. I think I lost interest in the England team around the Steve McClaren era. However looking purely on paper, Southgate has done better than most England managers.(maybe the stats guys can back this up! 😀) I totally understand that he prioritises certain players but I’m not sure swapping Longstaff for Phillips and Ward Prowse for Henderson is going to win us a Euros or World Cup. Perhaps I’m being too logical as I’m not emotionally invested.

A victory. Clean sheet. Valuable minutes for some fringe players. Well done Gareth.

Not sure he is a much of a violinist mate.

Glyfi Sigurdsson on the bench for Iceland tonight.

what has Conan O’Brien got to do with this ?

There is nothing we don’t know about that ‘bin dipper from work’

Yeah. I know what you mean. Surely Israel have the military power to deal with Palestine (rightly or wrongly). We probably just followed the US is solidarity.

What time does Wykiki start his Southgate bitch fest tonight? im guessing 18:45 when the teams are announced.

Same for me. He has managed to link to the entire nufc Twitter feed. School boy stuff.

I’ve introduced my boy to the backstory of mackems and Sunderland. He keeps mistakenly calling them Maggots Close enough Son.

What a wild bunch.

I’m sure my knowledge of this conflict doesn’t scratch the surface. I know both sides are culpable. Any side that targets civilians should be seen as terrorists (in any war). What were the Hamas expecting after the attack on Saturday? Cutting a baby out of a pregnant woman (whilst alive) then shooting in her in the head. That’s not war. That’s not a strategic military target. That’s going to force Israel to take severe action. Are Hamas representative of the people of Palestine? (Genuine question btw) As always civilians will be the losers.

Ronay is a smug borefest. I can’t listen to the weekly football podcasts when he is on. I prefer Jonathan Wilson which is saying something.

Aye. From his point of view it’s a great clause. Things could easily drop off for us. My worry is that liverpool allegedly put in a £100m offer in the summer and now he has that exact clause in a contract. it would break my heart if he moved to those tramps.

Valverde has just signed a new contract with Real Madrid. His release clause…. €1Bn Thats how you do it.

you could give yourself as evidence here as well. 😜

Im not sure I got on with him either. He gave off grumpy old man vibes.

Rob W disappeared as well. I recall he was quite old back in the day.

Jesus. This international break is taking its toll. We are talking about the weather now.
