Yeah. Bad taste + lots of money is not a good sartorial combination

Taking that 3-0 fucking walkover as some sort of positive it’s a shame it’s not an Olympic year as Keith would have a chance of a gold medal in the mental gymnastics category

It’s a reference to the Bilbao Black Cats. Who live ‘in and around Bilbao’. All two of them

Maybe he lives in (or around) Birmingham?

I forgot about Ross Stewart. It’s hard to keep track of all these generational talents that fade into obscurity when they leave SAFC though

And that (under Poyet) was when Ellis Short was throwing money at the club and before the current financial regulations.

They had about two good results in the last quarter of the season and had well and truly turned on their manager and wanted him out before (and at certain points, during) the playoffs. And now it’s like it never happened. Saw a post on there from the loveable Keith saying the manager might be under pressure if the club goes ‘all in’ and they struggle but might get the full season regardless of performances if they ‘only’ spend £50m. It’s just down the road but it’s like a different planet at times. Especially on that message board which is weird even by their standards

Well yes but I doubt Infantino and co lost much sleep over acquiescing

Good article that. By the way FIFA have also removed any anti-racist and anti-discriminatory messaging that this usually see at the World Cup. Citing their politically neutral stance. It was always a bit all fart and no shit anyway but at least the messaging was right. This is basically how far we’ve regressed

They’ve got some nice plain Germany stuff on the adidas website/app for the 125th anniversary of their national team

Remember that kit Brighton had around that era where the had striped shorts that matched the top?

Used to love that show

Looks like Fenella Fellorick

4-0 after 21 minutes

Great win for them in the end under pretty intense pressure

Yes

Fucking bamps

Twinned with Longbenton

Just put me in mind of that time Mick Fleetwood and Sam Fox co-hosted The Brits

And then the rest of Instagram stood up and applauded

Leazes Park is, on the whole, a dump. There should be an improved public green space off the back of this hopefully. BTW, I spotted that group on facebook and loads of Mackems were saying it was a disgrace re: Leazes Park. So presumably they’re as genuinely passionate about wildlife and green spaces in Newcastle as they are about human rights on the Arabian peninsula
