It was more the way he wasn't with the pack - he walked around solo, quite a bit after the pack to milk it. I might be wrong, but it seemed all ego - I've just got it in my head now that he thinks he's better than everyone and that all the chants and praise were at him. He was definitely separate from the pack on purpose like, and its the second time at a home game he's done it. A lot of people don't see it, because they leave for the pub at the final whistle - but its become a thing recently for 10-15 minutes of "fan interaction".

Look, until he's putting Peter Beardsley Shimmies on the end of those runs, he can fuck off falling over for 3 minutes everytime he loses the ball . Oh and he can fuck off singing hey jude to the crowd on his own, like its all about him. "Crosses" being from the byline when you're about to fall over / run it out of play - aren't quite the same as a Trippier pinged pass. I like him by the way, I find his limping wounded donkey act funny and think he is one of our better players.

Just go steady - it's came out that he was diagnosed with dementia just 6 months after he left us. I'm starting to not see the funny side with him getting names wrong etc. Pisses me off that no one in the club mentioned it, when pretty much everyone he knew was worried about him.

Not joelinton now tho is it? I'd still prefer to see him put in some kind of cross, than try beat 5 from the corner flag with 3 players open.

That's going in my copybook of grudges.......

Lee Clarke. Do I win a prize?

I fear that he thinks that he is the finished article, though, old bean. whatwhatwhat ?

Yeah agree with you there - I wonder if you've hit the nail on the head and Bruce Balls told him "you are all we have up front, do it yourself, have confidence" and he's kind of still thinking that now - to be fair Joelinton and Almiron can't hit a cow on the arse with a chello.

What I am going to say is ludicrous if taken literally, I am NOT making a real comparison BUT Everyone said that about Ronaldo (fairly) when he was first at man united . If we can get a team based footballing mentality into ASM , I think we all know he's got great potential (not ronaldo level of course, tho that pains me as I hate the whiney spoilt little twat).

Yeah... Everyone I went to the match with, the BBC and the papers are saying he had a great match. I think I've crossed the boundary of frustration with him though - he's WORSE than Robert , in that its not lack of effort - more some lack of teamplay or something. During the match on Tuesday, I was still screaming at him to pass and to get up when he falls over like he's been bloody shot , it's embarrassing - he's worse than Almiron was for that. But, he had a great game by all accounts and according to the BBC was "our best player" - I thought he was amongst the worst on Tuesday. Targett or Trippier were our best players (Targett was MUCH better than I expected) .. I think I might have to learn to forgive and forget.

I think 1 more consecutive win might be enough, at this stage. If we get another in the next game - in relegation battles its 50% mental / 50% ability imo.

Bruno Guimaraes: Newcastle's new signing believes club will become a big power in world football - BBC Sport I've posted it before, and will do again:

Ah there's potential spoilers here, but they seemed to "kill off" some characters in events between Series 5 and 6 so I never got closure. Anyhoo - yup it was mint! Bobbi was the best female action character, I've seen since Ripley in Aliens, I even think she may have been better - loved her raging in the early series.

Patience though, if he's not trained for more than 2 or 3 days then it's understandable that he may not understand the game plan, or strategy . I know its shit yer pants time, (Or at least thats how I'm feeling it) - but winning against Everton is a big ask as it is and is perhaps not worth the risk of reducing morale by him expecting us to play a certain style and making a tit out of himself - or getting angry at the players he had . (I got a bit of that feeling from Trippier when he was calling people up from the tunnel to go and see the fans, after a drubbing).

Yeah I was gutted when I heard it was being cancelled on Amazon too - but I can appreciate that it costs an absolute truckload to make. I just wonder where the marketing is! It's one of the best sci-fi stories of decades imo. I don't know what comes close , it was "breaking bad" addictive for me. I know that they've deviated from the books in order to bring it to a close with the last season - so I'm tempted to start reading them, but its soooooo many pages! (I'm a beekeeper so read too many books already!)

Lingard is much better than that! In my view he must have been totally blocked by Man U as he's part of Southgate's setup and he's going to really struggle to keep himself in.

I love to hate Joelinton and have been as surprised as anyone around me in the stand how I've turned from screaming at him, to encouraging him and gushing everytime he comes to the touchline. But the last couple of games he's slipped back to form imo... His strength and close footwork in the centre of the pitch are great - but that makes it even more inexcusable when he fuckin falls over , unchallenged, with a shot on in the box 4 minutes later.

Someone I worked with had a theory that any 2 savoury items from greggs can be combined. So if it was greggs bread , then that would fit the "law" (do they even sell loaves anymore?)

I liked it's always sunny in philly , but like most US sitcoms, it loses something after series 3. Alright then, I'll try again and hopefully this meets with some approval. Into Sci-fi? "The expanse" on Amazon Prime . I'm not a massive sci fi fan, but did like Star Trek next gen and the original star wars - I got told about this in November and watched the full lot by the end of Jan! Enjoy belta lowder.

Fuck you 😘 Eat shit and die. You non conformist - the interwebs agrees with me its got 11 out of 10 on IMDB and I cried at nearly every episode in season 2.

Yep... Well.. After dipping my toe in and feeling ashamed or guilty if I don't keep up with what's going on politically. I'm out. I'll vote, but I'm not discussing shit anymore - because this whole thing has made something go pop in my head and I don't understand how we aren't in uprising as a nation. I seriously mean it. We've been through a pandemic with a PM who was alleged to have said "let the bodies pile high" and has absolutely took the piss and undermined not just politics, but peoples faith and likelyhood to comply to any future heathcare measures we need. He's also willing to stoke a fucking war , with the 60,000 troops we have after vicious cuts, just to save his "career" ? I'd go to London in a fuckin heartbeat if we could get 1 million people to block the fucker from getting in in the morning. Fuck them all - obvious corruption and our country seems so tribal, we appear to have become a mini USA.

I found him! 1 minute 47 into the video below. But the window has closed https://fb.watch/aVvWti9Acq/

Not sure if it's been said - but Ted Lasso was the perfect dose of brilliance during the pandemic for me. Beg borrow or steal to watch it (it's an apple tv exclusive, but torrents ftw!). Give it 2 episodes , because it deliberately starts "too silly to be believable" - but you will :

Trippier higher than Bruno. I hope Bruno hits the ground running, but I think its expecting a lot . Trippier is a blooded english player who knows the league. A 5 for wood is a bit harsh, he'll score some goals for us.

It occurred to me that I have NEVER in my living memory had the transfer window newsfeed running in January. I'm in shock.. I'll forever hold Trippier in high esteem, no matter what happens - he took the bet and that set a bar , I reckon.
