Also it doesn’t send a great message to the reserves if you sign an out of contract player the moment your no. 1 gets injured.

It’s bollocks anyway. They’ve been talking a ‘good’ game (in terms of getting immigration down) with rhetoric like this for what seems like forever now. Whilst doing the exact opposite (to record levels) in practice anyway. Even if you’re a full on gammon Daily Heil devotee you would probably recognise it was under more control when we were still in the EU and there was freedom of movement.

I don’t buy into it being some amazing grand plan. But there is a ‘model’ based around taking a punt on developing young players and selling them for a profit. I don’t think they’re going to abandon it and bring in some ‘get stuck in’ dinosaur.

Le Cattermole?

That Evertionian started another equally cringeworthy, needy thread on there the other week. They truly are kindred spirits

If it’s Allardyce he’ll want a lot of money. As well wanting at least a few experienced loan signing in January. Can’t see it but nothing makes sense down the road, so who knows?

I like Mowbray and feel for him but other than that I’m delighted. I would imagine they’ll hire a foreign coach no one has heard of. Their most saleable assets would seem to be Clarke and their keeper. I reckon at least one of them will leave in January. Honestly wouldn’t be surprised if that was the plan.

And they don’t even seem to have a replacement lined up.

They’ll be lining up to take a job there. You’ve got the fickle fans with ridiculously high expectations who create a poisonous atmosphere at home. Then you have shady owners who won’t pay you much, spend much or let you have any say over recruitment. Then you have the inexperienced squad of players complimented by 4 strikers with about 10 senior goals between them. All wrapped up in an absolute fucking shit hole

Yeah, mon

That thread about the banners, man. Starts off with people talking about running stuff past the club, ensuring it’s factually correct and donations to Amnesty International. 23 pages in and it’s just pure racism RTG and its famous lack of self awareness strikes again

F stop this now, please

Don’t forget racially abusing player’s mothers

I think all the social media NUFC gobshites are on the payroll. By that I mean Spaniel’s lugs, Pearson and the ones who are the go to ‘fan spokespersons’. It’s always the same ones who turn up on Football Focus or whatever. Even if not directly being paid then via getting access and tickets they wouldn’t normally get. All part of a public relations / social media offensive by the club’s owners.

Gemmill, are you mixing this place up with the fan fiction forum you frequent?

There’s only one of the clubs that was founded in a city tbh 😎

I don’t wish this on him but Pearson is going to get a good hiding at some point. Unless appearances are very deceiving, he’s a soft little shite who makes his mouth go. He was properly asking for it that time goading the Southampton fans after the league cup match. I don’t think he’s got the sense to realise either.

It’s taken the heat off Mowbray for a while anyway

Draw isn’t a bad result for us either

Just as well they’re not bothered about us

Shame Fulham didn’t get something but a decent set of results all the same (especially if Man City win)

Iirc all her speaking parts were dubbed and they also used a body double for that scene

I see they’re already talking about banners etc. calling out our owners. Completely oblivious to how it just further underscores that they’re only bothered about football rather than what they claim
