I’m almost certain it was him as I heard him speak too. His tatty old carrier bag handle snapped so he dropped his shopping and the wine bottle smashed / went everywhere. He went and got a new bottle (gratis) but was slightly baulking at paying 65p for a new carrier bag

The lads just clapping politely

Damn you, autocorrect

First sang by Jarrow Elvis. FTM

Stick the red flag up your arse. That’s another one we copied

Payback for Lennon nutting Shearer’s foot

Exile went to Turkey on holiday. Not suggesting for a second Turkey and Saudi Arabia are the same. But would that be the destination for someone’s whose raison d'etre is highlighting the human rights abuses and atrocities committed by regimes around the world? How is the conflict in Yemen worse that what Turkey have been doing in Kurdistan since the 70s? That’s just one example re the Turkish regime

There are but it’s definitely easier to have a reasonable conversation with their lot in general when we’re both shite

If we get in the CL they’ll say we aren’t champions. If we ever win the league, it’ll be tainted by blood money

Except to them, for the duration we are still in it.

That Hank Williams’ patter is absolutely fucking rank. Even by the standards of the company he keeps.

Roker Mackem, who admits he barely went to Roker Park (so in all likelihood never went, given his penchant for hyperbole). He’s talking about us copying a song which was popular with our fans long before the SoL was built. Another example of them making stuff up to get annoyed about

I mentioned it on here at the time but it was the chicken nonce for those who didn’t see it

I don’t think the club will be held to ransom and we don’t need him now. We’re impatient as fans but the hierarchy are playing the long game. Iirc he’ll only have 12 months on his contract come the summer. Leicester still need to secure their PL status. Not suggestion Edwards knows any more than me. He’s probably just speculating too. And if we do sign Maddison in January, Edwards will claim an ‘assist’ for putting out the info he received to dampen down the speculation. Or something

Wants to think himself lucky he wasn’t dropping and breaking bottles of Pinot Grigio in Palmersville Aldi when the tournament was on. Like some of his less respected colleagues

You’re a 10 though

The hospital wasn’t the only thing that needed evacuating

I vaguely remember getting the metro from Walkergate on the day it officially opened to the public, going to the coast with my Grandma and Granddad (who lived in Walker). I don’t know why but I thought it was going to be completely different lines or something as was unimpressed at it being the same route / line (from the same location) as we’d previously used getting the train to the coast. The trains were nicer though

Vaguely related but the appalling soi-disant comedy To the Manor Born is currently being repeated on the BBC. A programme where the bloke vulgar enough to actually buy the stately home using his own money is depicted as being inferior to the stuck up woman who inherited it then had to sell it (but was still allowed to live on the estate). It should’ve been an outmoded way of thinking nigh on 40 years ago and we’re still a nation of forelock tugging morons

I’ve never seen Titanic but I know what happens anyway

Dali meets Hieronymus Bosch meets a spice bong meets a 3 litre bottle of Frosty Jack 👍🏻

I can only echo what others have said. I’m really sorry to hear about your bad news. Just letting someone know you’re there for them can make a massive difference at a time like this.

I quite like him, he’s usually been on the fans’ side re: NUFC. I do think that article seems to ignore that the vast majority of people enjoy World Cups via tv and not in person like him. You either realise how privileged you are to be there in his position or have a proper pop at the hypocrisy and corruption of it all. He doesn’t really do either. Football-wise it was fantastic. Even with a fairy tale ending

The tight bastards
