Generic small time football blather thread FOREVER
Alex replied to Sonatine's topic in Newcastle Forum
Anderson and Burn both start for England. Tino and Gordon on the bench -
Stupid flag-shagging cunts

Well actually it’s less prestigious but it shouldn’t be. I.e. MoJ is really complex and is now the biggest dept in the civil service in terms of staff iirc. Although not one of the ‘great offices of state’ like Chancellor, Foreign Secretary, etc. Although I think you’re right because of the perception amongst his peers and the public

I think initially he’ll be used off the bench. I think we’ll play a 4-3-3 with Gordon and Elanga either side of Wissa. Which isn’t to disagree with anything in that video, more how I think Howe operates. Obviously Wissa has only been here 5 minutes too but he’s premier league ready. Plus I don’t think Howe would want to put too much pressure on Woltemade either.

When he joined the forum and backed the appointment of Dennis Wise he was rewarded for his loyalty with a 20 year deal by Mike Ashley. Set to run out in the summer of 2028

When she consoled Novotna that time she blew that big lead and lost the Wimbledon final it was a lovely human touch which I don’t think many other royals of her generation would have been comfortable doing. I know that says as much about the others as her but still.

A loan deal was turned down on account of his wages

I was about to post that surely you didn’t need to use an analytical tool on the text to work that one out. Also when I’m bored at work I use the civil service AI tool to answer written parliamentary questions, etc in the style of Shakespeare

The usual suspects will now drone on about what a disaster it because they’ll actually be gutted this hasn’t been drawn out for another few weeks. Feel for her. She seems decent enough. I think she’ll be back well before the next election too. Agree with Rayvin in the sense none of this seems to really matter very much

At least we’ve found a scouser tbd has some time for.

Probably would if it was reported more widely. Which isn’t really a defence

Fucking shite. Get rid.

I’ve edited it now for a bit more context. But whatever.

Taking your hatred of Liverpool fans a tad too far perhaps. I mean I think you can acknowledge the state of the legal system whilst recognising it’s not particularly relevant here. And the coverage has been quite lopsided in relation to the perpetrator. And I think what he did was indefensible and I wouldn’t mind seeing the results of his tests for drug and drink driving.

His KC has already been banging on about the legal system and how they weren’t able to get a laptop into the prison to show the cunt the masses of video evidence. The BBC chose to focus a fair bit of their article on that plus his being a former Royal Marine Commando. I’m not sure why that’s more relevant than his being a fan of Reform, Trump and Andrew Tate. But as soon as it was made clear the attack wasn’t carried out by a terrorist who wasn’t white it was suddenly really important to let everyone know he was a CEO (even though he was a CEO in the same way William Storey) and a dad (so fuck?). I full expect a PTSD excuse to emerge in the coming days

Everything that’s going on and the BBC and all the other usual suspects are convincing the nation that what Rayner did is absolutely terrible. Democracy is fucking dead in this country.

It’s really nice but the old fart in me immediately thought ‘that’ll get stained / be a nightmare to keep clean

Better off getting the adidas app and keeping an eye on there. The drill top is lush as is the black ‘terrace icons’ tracksuit top.

Same for me in that same context.

Might be a big ask given where they were last season to get top 4 and play in the CL but they’re definitely a completely different prospect this season

It just came up on my recommendations. I follow BBC Archive on YouTube. When I’ve tried to find out more about it, it’s in relation to Orwell’s 1984 and how much of it had came true by that year. It was only when I started watching it and thought the opening scene was the Tyne Tunnel back then. Then as it went on I realised it’s all in and around Newcastle without ever mentioning the fact until a small reference in the end titles and credited locations.

For anyone with any memories of Newcastle in 1984, this weird documentary film without narration is worth a watch.

I’ve done one of them The Sun holidays at Cresswell Towers years ago. It was alright even though it was in the winter because you can get wrapped up and go for a walk on the beach but with Haggerston Castle even that’s not an option without a 10 minute drive. I just don’t get it with that place
