It's coming, the penny dropping moment isn't far off. Mind you it'll not be a 'oh damn, we were wrong after all and have fucked the entire country', it'll be "well not my fault like is it? you lot shoulda been nicer to us, called us all racists, what did you expect? Your fault this is. Not ours."

Ah here we go, TT's own scout in the Spanish leagues can deliver a verdict.

Aye that'll be right If he ever runs out of places to hide in terms of trying to seem legit, he'll claim it was all some ironic parody of the whole thing.

I thought this too "Dunno what the mags are talking about marra, there's mackems in the PL" "Gerrin, that goal against the mags went in off Clarke's arse, 7 in a row that" "Always loved Palace me, proper club. They love us down there an all"

The great thing about that is, the mackems absolutely will not be able to accept losing him to those clubs.

Isak loves it gets well into it when he scores. Loved that one when he put his dead down and went right into the crowd to celebrate with them. He's got great spirit.

I like the idea of calling him "the Hungarian" to get around trying to remember the spelling of his name too.

Can't recall if I posted this the other day but RAWK has a thread where posters are so enraged by the audacity of clubs like City and ourselves being state owned that they want to bin off the entire premier league and go and make a super league instead. State owned teams would be banned and only 4 teams could enter from each country. Naturally Liverpool would be first on the list for England. https://www.redandwhitekop.com/forum/index.php?topic=354280.0 Bitch, before we were taken over I couldn't even have told you who won the league on a given season two weeks after it ended, that's how low my interest in your big 6 nonsense used to be. And while I'm not saying that it'll be more enthralling for the other clubs now that Newcastle might threaten to win it at some point, let's not pretend that the apathy will be new. What's new, I suppose, is that Liverpool fans may be the ones feeling it for change.

I didn't - just googled it, can see it's a running joke, but felt just as brutal then as it does now I guess whatever it is, I've missed it.

Wtf is that 'bit' at the end though - "now that you've seen our crib, I would appreciate it if you would remove yourselves from our premises" I feel like it's meant to be a joke but the delivery is so dead that it just seems kind of brutal. Does look like a well set up place though.

I'd take either but this is how I'm leaning too.

On the positive with that, our owners looked at both of them. That's a really good sign for the future tbh, if they're this strong on identifying competent management.

Villa made Europe didn't they? They'll drop off if so. As will we in fairness but at least we made the top tier competition for the sacrifice. Brighton will have the same issue. Chelsea have a lot of rebuilding work to do but you never know I suppose. As for the rest, Liverpool are an unknown for me - have they transitioned to something formidable again or was that end of season run in just a death rattle?

A player who fully deserved the useless management and pointless club he ended up with

Imagine what his career might have looked like stuck under Steve Bruce man. Would have been difficult to shift as no one would have paid anywhere close to what our outlay was, so could have been stuck here through his 20s having an unproductive, pointless career. And now with just 18 months under Howe, he's made the Brazil team, qualified for the champions league and is probably more than worth the 40m we paid were we to sell him tomorrow. Fully deserved. I wonder how many other genuinely brilliant footballers had their careers ruined by useless managers and pointless clubs.

They did almost win it at the end though. If Pope doesn't make that save, the whole gameplan would be lauded as a masterstroke. If they'd opened up and played us properly, they would have lost by 2 or 3 goals IMO.

Rodgers seems to be the one coming under serious fire from Leicester's fans for what's happened to them. Has his star fallen or was it never up that high anyway? I'm inclined to think the latter.

Some of them are claiming it's a conspiracy mind Not sure you want to stand too close.

Agreed, the fella has barely played. More game time and he'll be fine.

Fucking good, since his entire shameful political choice to cut the country to the fucking bone undoubtedly killed people. Fuck all will happen but maybe just a bit of attention about the actual human cost of austerity might land with a few of the 'a national economy is like a household budget' halfwits.

Posted the Dan Burn article but can see it's already been done Nice that it's not all horrific media nonsense though.

The guy is more than entitled to have his view tbh but I'm not sure where this idea that we as fans of NUFC give much of a toss about what anyone else thinks about it is coming from. Who gives a fuck if he and/or other neutrals don't like us anymore? I'd wager it was more pity than like anyway. If we're not that pitiable club anymore, good.

In Sean Casey's own words...

I mean yeah, that looks really bad. I'm not even sure it is 'legal' in his words tbh, it sounds like grooming.

Think that was pre-takeover when he'd had some success with Derby, in my (very flimsy) defense? I have a mate who is a Derby fan who was singing his praises at the time. So to be clear, we're comparing pre-Chelsea Lampard with Steve Bruce at the point in time I said that
