    Joelinton stays on uninjured and we win at least 5-0 there. The difference in space they had when Miley came on compared to before was what we've been seeing in some of our league games, no fault of the kid but it's having an effect on us but luckily we were already 2-0 up and Sunderland are fucking turboshit, again in a derby down there we get a Homer Simpson referee. Absolutely bossed them, again, big Joe stays on we win five or six. Hopefully the mackems have seen their first big match for years and can now go back to the usual drudge. Fuck off home, marras there's a good mong. :good:

     

    Aye he was a fucking beast they couldn't cope with. One of the best things the Ashley era ever did was sign him to piss off Rafa, it all makes sense in the end.

    Aye. That ref was as bad as Sunderland in terms of his performance. That said, Ballard not walking was a bonus. Bruno getting a yellow for a perfectly fine tackle too. I wouldn’t mind but he was letting all sorts of things go unpunished then books him for that 

     

    Outrageous at the time and it'll no doubt be overlooked. Won the fucking ball.

    might be worth giving safc a call and suggesting they put a 1955 fa cup shirt on the bob stokoe statue.

    you never know, they might go for it.

     

    Is it too late for them to agree with Michael Oliver being ref?

    Shit day all round. I remember now why I generally don't drink much nowadays, probably shouldn't drink at all given my medical history. My serotonin levels are rock bottom, gonna have to drive to the in-laws in county Durham soon without the crutch of a drink to take off the edge. Depression, anxiety. Then I'll have insomnia tonight. Oh, and Liverpool away to look forward to ffs. Fucking hate this time of year. Humbug fuck sticks 

     

     

     

    I read that through the singing voice of Cliff Richard to great amusement.

     

    Anyway, I feel like returning the favour - try the Wim Hof breathing technique and give it a week.

    It's not the defeats that hurt, it's the manner in how we lose them. Trying to protect 1 goal leads for over an hour then losing in the dying moments just kills morale. 

     

    Or builds character. Depends on how you take it.

     

    I'm at a point where I think I can hurt a foot with my bollock's forward defence. We'll win the FA Cup now.

    That was to celebrate the centenary of the football league (sponsored by mercantile credit iirc). The Zenith Data Systems sponsored one was an extra, short-lived, domestic cup (in the absence of European football after the Heysel ban). 

     

    All the things mentioned there ring a bell and I know you aren't talking shite. You abstained from tac and are bragging.

    Liverpool in the football league centenary kickabout. 

     

    When you know you're lush the opponents don't register. Now I've had enough trauma to set me back I'm gonna cling to the Liverpool penalty shoot-out in the 80s like darling Jack at the end of Titanic.

    Aye. I knew you meant us. I was struggling to think of one tbh and all that came to mind was v Man Utd in that Ibrox Tournament fucking decades ago ( lost to Sampdoria in the final when Lombardo gave Beresford a torrid time). I mentioned the Dutch because I think their record is even worse than England’s 

     

    Was a tournament English football authorities thought a good idea late 80s at Wembley. We won a penalty shoot-out, I listened to it but I don't remember who we beat.

     

    Anyway it's 4 now.

    Did you tell him it was the Netherlands instead? ;) 

     

    I've seen us win 3 penalty shoot-outs since the late 80s and one of them was the Zenith Data Systems Doylums or something at Wembley and I only count it in an optimistic mood. Our success rate has to be fucking rank. 

  10. I was in southern Spain when it went to pens with England vs Colombia. A pissed up daft English cunt tried to [foolishly] claim England were the worst side in the world at penalty shoot-outs. Thankfully I was in earshot and he's probably talking about me now.

    Him and Bruno being interviewed together on MOTD was nice. He just sounds like a bairn and then Bruno saying it's heard to believe he's only 17.

     

    He's got the perfect midfield partner in Bruno too. Miley himself is playing like a seasoned pro, but having Bruno there, always available for a pass, never looks under pressure, borderline untacklable, is massive.

     

    Love them both. And £100m will buy us a lot if someone triggers Bruno's release clause, but I don't think we'd be able to replace him with better, just cos there aren't many (any?!) around.

     

    I found myself hoping his release clause would be triggered upon reading it'd been added because I'm psychotic, but some things are priceless and the emotional Bruno does give our squad that feminine energy. It's important Miley grows up with balance so I'd keep Bruno and do wonders in the creche bit of the P&L

    My mate lost about 400 quid :lol: Not a Nissan employee but in the automotive trade so it may have been targeted to lads of that vocation

     

    Aye wey there aren't many lads in that vocation to rip off are there, thanks to fucking THATCHER.

    I remember an away match at Stoke (late 70s early 80s) which got a bit fuckin mental …a group of lads/blokes walked past singing ‘I wish I was in Dixie” cool as fuck like and waded into a load of Stoke nut jobs…I had no idea but got told it was the Bender Squad. And that Regan? Is that the same lad who was always on the barrier in the middle of the Leazes, had a mate called Mad Mac if memory serves?. Total radgies but looked after their own. 

     

    Stoke is the most backward place I've ever been, and I often took the slides at Crowtree in the 90s marra.

    The Bender Squad were the unorganized nutcases who followed NUFC in the 70s to 80s

    The NME ( Newcastle Mainline Express ) were NUFC casuals from the early 80s

    The Gremlins were the name given to the young lads ( who couldn't  get into the pubs ) that originally hung out with the NME.

    Of course they all got older .

     

     NME: From The Bender Squad to The Gremlins; Inside Newcastle's Football Hooligan Firm

     

    I didn't expect that. Happy to take the education. Love owt like this.

    I assumed Dynamo was one of the teams, Dynamo Kiev for example, that they'd both met in their playing careers till I read the rest of your post. :lol: (yes, I have no idea who 'dynamo' is).

     

    Wirey little cunt with Chron's. Might be his USP, he might have made it up too. 'Tis the age.

     

    Anyway he specialises in getting attention.

     

    Ach.
