Fully agree. We can get a result anywhere else but this is a tough ask Literally the best team on the planet. Probably including national trams.

I was a radio wanker most the match like Gemmill but this seems like an over reaction considering everything.

Third imo.

Ah well. Not many teams will leave Man City this season with only a 1 goal deficit this season. Not Man U, Arsenal, Liverpool, Spurs. We have to focus on being second best unfortunately.

Best striker in the world too.

What? It's not chicken and egg though. Winning a trophy is the ultimate outcome, the intended destination. So if we win a cup, we're there. If we continue to get top 4 and win fuck all, we're not there are we? Now you might say CL football gives us the best chance of winning multiple cups at some point in the hypothetical future, but then again, this is the 4th time we've qualified in this position and that's not happened, has it? Just fucking win something lads

I Financially this is true but don't underestimate the effect failure to win trophies has had on the collective psyche of NUFC. Until we win something we're losers. Coming 4th isn't winning anything. I'd take a cup win over the CL every day of the week.

Agreed, and I think this is the motive for the series from NUFC pov, and it does it quite well - counteracting MSM misperceptions and peopaganda. Doesn't makes scintillating telly like STID did though.

Agree with this. I was trying to cast my mind back to how I felt when Chelsea and Man City were taken over, which both pissed me off. But it wasn't the nature of their owners, it was the fact that they had unlimited funds to distort the game. Now they've pulled the drawbridge up and FFP has put paid to this. There are issues with this and its clearly intended to preserve the status quo, making it hard for NUFC to break through. I think this documentary is chronicling the process quite well and highlights how good the board is.but for me it's a bit dry and boring. Footage from STID series 3, showing Man with Beanie hat watching WaU: [mackem] A see rhey hold their board room maytings in Annick castle marra. Fick jawdee bastards divent knar those Percys was crusaders marra! Ha ha FTM. How Julie, ya got me cheese slice eady for the Rotherham gayme? [\mackem]

Or, if you want to chance bumping into the famous HMHM, the Forum.

Aye. But then again, I've heard a lot of American sports have similar ludicrous prices?

Please don't mention this man again.

So does the position of the right hand you dirty bastid.

This is how Gemmill watches matches nowadays.

Oh come to watch the Saudi The geordie boys will flock Cheer and praise for the prince Dressed in tea towels and a smock At half time out comes Fender To the stoning we'll attend Dance to Howdon Aldi Death Queue As they put to death our gay friend 🎶

Why aye.

Mackem's are fewming with the prospet of SJP hosting a friendly for Saudi Arabia against Costa RIca and South Korea (several hundred posts this morning already). Apparently there will be stonings and beheadings at half time accompanied by Sam Fender. And we will all pay £100 and wear tea towels on our head. That word, imagine, again. Presumably this is just another way to help us out for FFP. I'm all for it, seems a really odd thing to get upset about, but am I fuck attending, I imagine like nearly everyone else.

Think this may be my daughters first crush. She reckons he looks like Flynn Rider from Rapumzel. I think she might be right.

I admire him for ManU too tbh, taking all the partisan BS out of it. The guy's a fully fledged hun cunt from Govan, so it's not like I'm ever going to like him on a personal level, but his achievements are unsurpassed. ManU have been a shit show since he left which underlines his achievements. Wish he'd joined us in the 80s tbh.

Or may "Shoim"?

I can't help having respect for Ferguson, Don't think he explains hinself well here but his comment is more directed at Villa's performance than ours. I disagree 5-1 flatters us though, because we could easily scored another 3 had it not been for Martinez, and fuck the letter of the law, no way should he have been on the pitch imo. How the fuck can a goal keeper just come out, completely ignore the ball, and rugby tackle the player and stay on? Deliberate and potentially dangerous. Should be a red for any player (keeper or outfield) and regardless of shooting angles etc. But no doubt Villa had their moments and are one of the few teams that really are capable of troubling our defence. Losing both CBs probably takes them out the running though. Shame.

Also that rooftops place is nowhere near as classy as Qunny's marra.

I tried it once but straight away got "fuck off you cunt" so I gave up. Oh wait, that was Alex on here come to think of it.

Howay man. Like a peasant from Wallsend* can afford corporate. I've been to a few do's at "the rooftops" as it happens. Way back when it was much less salubrious under Ashley. Iirc they actually closed that area latterly because of lack of demand. View wise its probably no better than my seat but will cost as much for a single match as my ST. * Mandatory safety
