Generic small time football blather thread FOREVER
Renton replied to Sonatine's topic in Newcastle Forum
Klopp banned for one match, one suspended, scheduled for next season apparently. -
Really sorry to hear that mate. My mum's having scans for suspected cancer too as it happens, found out this morning. Hopefully she'll be okay but there just seems some inevitabibility in her decline if you get me, after losing her daughter and husband. You've been through some horrible health problems recently both personally and with your family. Not a lot I can say, focus on your own mental health the best you can. Don't over estimate your reslience like I did and reach out if you can. I have my fingers crossed for you.

The Daily Mail is literally the only one asking that question, the fucking spanners.

A bit cheeky and possibly hypocritical. Spongebob takes offence and squares up to MF.

As has been said, I think with Highbury it was the fact it was proper old skool set in a residential area, which seems to be the case with the "Kenny" except taken to even bigger extremes (never been there). Goodison is similar, with that church incorporating one of the corners. In general I prefer it when clubs develop thier historic grounds but the Emirates was done right, and Everton's their new ground on the docks looks like it will be good. Not been to the London stadium but heard from multiple sources how shite it is. If I was a West Ham fan I'd be pissed at swapping Upton Park for it, whatever the financial gains were.

So apparrently it's the 40th anniversary of the film "Local Hero". I have't seen it for years so must get round to watching it again if I can find it. Anyway, one mackem starts an innocent thread on it. Can you guess how long it takes to descend into pure fewm about us using the eponymous Knopfler song at SJP, he was Scottish not a Geordie, anyway Blyth's not in Newcastle, neither was Gosforth before 1974, more added fewm about Sam Fender, and then veering off to tirades about "Washy Mags"? First reply. I now I shouldn't but they're just so damn funny.

This is the reason Starmer won't be more open about Brexit and moving us towards the EEA (which would take two parliaments I reckon). Thing is, I was listening to Campbell on the Newsagents this week, and he made the point that Labour doesn't need to worry on what the Mail says any more. Anyone who still buys it is a lost cause. I think he's right. I was absolutely struck yesterday that the BBC had Brexit destroying the car industry as the headline in News at Ten. Not only that, but it was relatively forensic in its analysis by their standards, for more than 5 minutes. This would have been unthinkable a year ago. Now we are in the process of colliding head on with the shit reality of the TCA, with hundreds of thousands of jobs on the line, things are finally changing.
