I was listening to an interesting analysis last night on far right of the tory party, for Braverman potentially becoming party lead which is her clear aim (I shit you not). Apparently, the way the tory MPs are strcutured, the more loony ones are in the safer seats. So if they were wiped out in the next GE to say 150 seats, this would eliminate more "moderates" than ERG type tories. Braverman would then have a clear path to win a leadership campaign. Bring it on I say.

Newcastle United: Club Sold To PCP - Official

Not a comedian then? -
So bandwidth isn't an issue? Yet you also made the point about your kids using it all up? So if you're now saying it's a stability issue, and wired is more stable (is it?), Then what's the issue if your bandwidth halves? Oh, and a "trading site". Roman coins, amirite?

I'm still not getting the need for this. 200 mbs, the lower end you say you get on wifi, is enough to stream over 100 films simultaneously or 25 films in HD. That's an awful lot of porn.

Newcastle United: Club Sold To PCP - Official

Well literally the first thing they said was it was a political story, not a football story. They basically despise Johnson and this is another stick to hit him with tbh. Tbf the journalist from the Athletic made the point that even the most intelligent people decompartmentalise their politics from other aspects of their life, especially football. You'd go mad if you applied geopolitical morals to everything you do in your leisure time. -

The Newsagents podcast is about PIF, the PL and Jonlhnson today, interviewing that guy who wrote the Athletic article. Not sure it tells us anything we didn't know, says Johnson pressurised the PL after being leant on by MBS, but then pretty much invalidates that point with the Bein piracy issue the next point. Was a bit pissed off with Sopell's lazy characterisation of Newcastle fans a the start. We didn't descend on SJP with tea towels on our heads you liar, I was there, it was a handful at most. Also we've reached the CL primarily because our manager is fucking amazing, many other clubs have outspent us. Overall reasonably balanced but nothing new to see. https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5jYXB0aXZhdGUuZm0vdGhlLW5ld3MtYWdlbnRzLw/episode/M2NmODEyM2UtMjdmNC00YTcyLTllMzAtYTNlODUyMWNhNTE5?ep=14 -

"I could go on on a daily basis" They do it on a minute by minute basis the sad twats.

Was.the strangest game ever last night. Thank fuck we'd already done the hard work and didn't need a result. I wasn't stressed at the end because in truth even a loss was enough. I took this snap shot of sky after an extended period of time where there were 21 players playing in one end of the pitch. Never seen stats like this. Only one match left then 11 weeks of football withdrawal for me. Transfer talk doesn't interest me much. I wish football was played in the summer with a winter break personally. Well done Eddie, well done rhe team. The good times are back!

Howay, I've had my issues with it, but WIndows isn't that bad.

Fuck me, the humble stealth brag. Look at me. "200 to 300" mbs not good enough. It's 5 times what I get and that's plenty. And who the fuck uses wired internet nowadays?

I mean I'd contest that and say it was more like 80/20, but that would mackem like behaviour.

Whoever it is, stop fucking with my posts, or... Nothing really.

He took a long hard look in the mirrow and saw the light fortunately. In a parallel Uinverse there is a poster on the SMB alled wykikiMLF providing enough fewm to solve the energy crisis.

So the one presenter I'd have quite liked to have been a nonce back then isn't?

Ashington, the epicentre of the footballing world and working man's clubs. Can you imagine the accent you'd get if you crossed the Ashington accent with t'Yorkkshire one?

I think, I hope, that fewer and fewer people are believing the lies. Thelatest Brexit data is showing to me that we have hit a pivot point where people can see it's bullshit, even Leavers. And the best thing is, many leavers can't accept that Brexit per se so there is nowhere left to place their anger except on the tory government. Yes, some may blame the civil service but only the ones who are far too gone. You have my sympathy though, civil servants have suffered more than their fiar share under this government. I would hate to have to directly work for them.

New things that our right wing friends are suddenly shit scared of: The wokelists The coalition of the anti-growth The blob These people are beyond pathetic.

Generic small time football blather thread FOREVER
Renton replied to Sonatine's topic in Newcastle Forum
This is no way to talk about a team that has won the PL 4 times in the last 10 years. -
Exactly. I have not heard one person defend Saudi wahhabism. I hate it but recognise it exists and probably the best hope is that things get better as ME countries become more westernised (although freely admit progress here has been glacial). But the funny thing is, a lot who are most vocal against it are to the extreme end of the right on the politcial spectrum, and are incredibly socially conservative (i.e. bigoted) themselves. Deep down many of these are sympathetic to Saudi's mysogny and homophobia. They try to hide it but can't, as it comes out in their posts anyway as slurs. And the moderators condone it, whilst being too embarassed to allow it to be published to the wider world.

A reminder that on the classy morally superior boards of the SMB it's perfectly okay to call people camel humpers, lemons and bum boys, and to associate historic terrorist attrocities to an entire country, in the same thread you are criticising PIF ownership. Don't point out the hyporcirisy though as you'll be baaned. This post is from a fucking moderator, that Keith bloke is even worse. A reminder also their NUFC craic is so pitiful they are forced to hide it behind a member's wall almost as soon as it is posted.
