  1. I was talking to my Dad last night. I knew he knew the fella who did the NUFC blog as he’d mentioned it ages ago. My dad would read the blog from time to time and had seen the recent post announcing it was closing down. Anyway, it turns out they lived close to each other in Walker and were in the same class at high school (Heaton Tech as was). They both played for Newcastle Boys for several seasons. My dad was a centre half and said that Ed Harrison was an excellent ‘fearless’ goalkeeper. Ed played in a trial match for England schoolboys so he must’ve been pretty decent. My dad said Ed did a degree at King’s College London, before doing a masters up here. And he must’ve subsequently got a doctorate. That would’ve been highly unusual for a working class lad from Walker back then when hardly anyone would’ve stayed on beyond 16, let alone go to uni. Their paths crossed a bit through the years as my dad had various jobs in IT and Ed ended up working for IBM, which saw him move to North Carolina, where he is now. My dad reckons Ed is a lovely fella. Anyway, sorry for the boring, humourless story with no swearing
  2. It’s really good. Covers a lot of the period I studied for A-level too.
  3. Desperately unconvincing stuff from Sunak there in that short interview with Rigby Not helped by his fake smile looking more like a grimace from the off.
  4. Can’t be real because if it was an honest mistake it would mean there wasn’t a massive anti-Liverpool conspiracy being orchestrated by a shady cabal of Middle East businessmen
  5. I actually think it might’ve been after he racially abused Evra and got a hefty fine / ban
  6. I don’t like Klopp but he was spot on in his post-match interview, like Fish says. What is oh-so-Liverpool about all this, apart from everything else, is how important they think it is just because they were on the wrong end of one fucking incorrect offside decision. The rest of us don’t give a shit. Not just because it’s relatively trivial but also because you’re odious cunts
  7. Who do you normally post as on here though?
  8. Depressing from the point of view that they’re still trying to gaslight the nation. Less so from the likely lack of traction. It’s happened and most people see it as a lie now. You’d think they’d avoid the subject but I think from their point of view, trying to inflame things is all they’ve got left.
  9. I was going to say, I bet they’re fucking septics and a few swears (of all things) is what offends them
  10. Aye but I don’t think they actually spent much time browsing the forum (like they claimed) if it came as a surprise
  11. Call it extreme if you like, but the WhatsApp group have read the recent posts and have proposed to hit us hard and hit us fast with a major - and I mean major - leaflet campaign.
  12. What an odd episode. Also, Taco Bell @PaddockLad And he must be Noelie’s fatha if this place is too “hippy-dippy trendy” for him
  13. I’m a bit jealous I can’t read the WhatsApp group
  14. Some people wanted to talk about their beloved club
