  1. He seems like a canny lad who doesn’t take himself too seriously. And him and Carragher look like they just enjoyed being there seeing that performance in that atmosphere. The absolute bastards
  2. I remember my mam spending fucking ages on teletext trying to book cheap holidays
  3. They’re showing the goals now on a separate section. They’ll be going light on RTG
  4. Look North doing a big piece on last night’s match with Sunderland’s result mentioned in passing. Bewww!
  5. Aye, imagine buying into that shite
  6. I got a bit bored with the later seasons but it’s quality. I like H Jon Benjamin in Bob’s Burgers too. Did you ever see him Dr Katz? That was funny
  7. There’s loads of short stories, which I’ve read a fair few of plus the four novels I think (by Conan-Doyle anyway) but I think he only uses drugs when he’s not got the mental stimulation of a case to solve. But aye, opium use was fairly common place I think
  8. I know it’s fiction but the Sherlock Holmes novels casually mention his injecting cocaine and heroin when he’s bored due to not working on an investigation.
  9. Looks like he’s lost a bit of weight to me. I thought he bulked up and put on muscle he didn’t need, because he was already a unit, and it had an impact on his pace and his ability to turn. Obviously playing in a better side, working with a better coach etc., etc. all plays a big part in that. His attitude and work ethic must be class for Howe to have kept him around and to still have him as club captain too
  10. If you sing ‘’Adam Johnson, he shags who he wants’, are you technically condoning and celebrating the actions of a nonce?
  11. I knew they’d start claiming our group was easy. Something practically every neutral would disagree with Meanwhile they’ll bang on about the quality of the championship, whilst claiming the teams who pissed automatic promotion from it last year are shite

    I would agree with that. It says a lot about a lot of male, ex-pro pundits that their female counterparts are better just by doing their homework though. It’s your fucking (well remunerated) job

    Kevin Keegan

    When Keegan talks about football he’s great imo. Co-commentary gaffes is a different kettle of fish. And he does have a few of them in his locker tbf
  14. Prohibition has never worked. The problem with the debate is lumping all legal and illegal drugs together. There’s very little nuance
  15. More of a drain if you flood the black market with tabs no one pays duty on too though. I agree with it in principle too but tend to also think it’s unworkable

    Not really very different to an absolute dinosaur talking about it. For me, it’s more a problem having them on just because they’re female. And by that I mean some are really good, others offer very little.

    Doesn’t feel like a cross worth dying on, mind. When you live in a world where Michael Owen, Rio Ferdinand and Paul Merson get loads of airtime I can’t say lasses talking about the lads game bothers me. The other thing is you should realise that even a fairly harmless comment about it will be blown out of all proportion and overtake any other points you were trying to make
  18. They’ll be going fucking mental about Dawn Thewlis on Look North. That’ll before she’s on there and whether she actually turns out to be on there or not. And whether or not she makes an innocuous reference to last night’s match before handing over to the sports section.
  19. Oh I forgot. Despite all evidence to the contrary, the historic ceremonial county of Northumberland is MLF territory
  20. Also, that’s not even true. I thought that sounded like bullshit so I checked. It’s about 14 miles by road from Newcastle to Blyth. Or 11 miles as the crow flies, not 20. What’s his fucking point anyway? Both local lads, both boyhood Newcastle fans who describe themselves as Geordies.
  21. Longstaff will be from South Shields by the end of the day
  22. Siphon off what they can before losing the next election. Put policies in place that’ll be difficult to reverse. Plus more gross incompetence
