Toney’s assist for the equaliser was sensational. Such a difficult ball to control, then great feet with several players around him and the vision to get his head up and pick the player out.

Can you imagine the quality of your easter hinging on the outcome of a game not involving the team you support, in fact not even in the same league. It's bizarre, it's hilarious but we know it's true.
Especially when it’s not a particularly crucial result and they won yesterday too

The only thing that could top that for entertainment is reading the match thread on RTG

Definitely I reckon he would have us winning a trophy inside a couple of seasons.

Iron Eagle was his crowning glory. An Officer and a Gentleman was basically the preamble.
Forgot about that. Basically ripping off Top Gun iirc. Although Top Gun ripped off quite a lot of The Right Stuff

I don’t see why we can’t combine them

Well, I’ll explain. The Catholic Church deemed all sorts of different things to not be meat that was meat. As you're not supposed to eat meat during Lent. So if you lived on whichever remote Scottish archipelago it was (can’t remember off the top of my head) puffin formed a large part of the diet at this time of year. So, instead of people starving, puffin was counted as ‘fish’, not meat. The link here is you eat fish on Good Friday and Renton tried puffin on holiday (Iceland? Norway?) once. I think. If that didn’t need an explanation then GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY HEAD, please

I've just driven past the Harbour View in Seaton Sluice. Was pissing down, queue out the door with at least 50 people happy to pay for the privelge of soggy fish and chips in the rain. Doubt it's got much to do with God, just a silly SE Northumberland tradition now, and the chips aren't even that good.
No doubt you’ll have been on the deep fried puffin. There’s two references there and I think you’re the only one who’d get one of them

Hopefully you do too

Aye. Firmly in “I’d rather poke mesel in the eye with a shitty stick” territory

It's Easter so I might watch Ben Hur if I end up with nothing to do. I'll tag @Gemmillin this post so he doesn't miss it.
Some channel is bound to be showing The Greatest Story Ever Told. They better start it now if they want it to be finished by Easter Sunday

How long have the FA known about this btw? Sitting on it until there are 10 games of the season left is taking the piss. As is docking points from Forest/Everton half way through a relegation battle whilst taking forever to put a sanction on City
Andros Townsend was on about it the other day re: the points stuff. I.e. the unfairness of Everton being docked points, then having that revised on appeal. Then Forest being docked and the same possibly happening with their appeal. And how other clubs don’t know where they stand. Obviously he has a vested interest but he’s got a point too

Just had to book five separate tickets to get the best fare on a Peterborough-Newcastle return next month. Perfectly normal rail system, definitely not broken at all.
It would be mad enough anyway but that’s obviously direct trains on the line that connects the English and Scottish capital cities

I was down there signing a record deal with a major label if you must know.

I reckon he’ll get done for breach of contract if there’s another ban on top of the current one. Hopefully the FA will see sense and any additional ban would be considered unduly harsh. I won’t hold by breath though. It would also be a harsh move by the club but they’d probably not really see any other option thanks to FFP rules. And if all that were to happen then I think his whole career would be in jeopardy. It would be a terrible way to treat an addict imo. I’m not just saying that because he’s our player. As I tend to agree he’s not that likely to make it here either way

The one thing Exile had left to cling on to was the length of time since Newcastle had beaten Sunderland. With that no longer being the case he’s complete lost it. That’s me assuming he wasn’t a better player than a current Brazil international when he was in his mid 20s though
