Dogshit. Then, below that, Joelinton.

So you're not taking the bet?

So League One isn't even his level. It's hard to believe how awful Joelinton was today. He was outclassed by a 40-year-old. When Fernandez sent it back across goal he was standing stock-still at the penalty spot, waiting for Godot. I almost feel bad for him. It's not his fault we (maybe) blew 40m on a complete donkey.

Fuck, man, some of the Christmas tits in this thread are nearly enough to convert me to Christianity. Hallelujah, happy birthday baby Jesus, and a merry one to all of you from across the ocean.

If you told someone "right, come up with a person who embodies the very worst of Britain", it would be that human shitstain, Godfrey Bloom. He is every shitty fucking stereotype of an old, shriveled, Empire-loving, England for the English racist provincial cunt. He isn't even a Tory. The Tories don't want him. The fucking UKIP don't want him. Nobody could stand to be around him for more than 10 seconds, because he'll spend half of it breathing Carling fumes in your face (leering down your shirt if you are a woman) and the other half going on about "the war."

Same thing goes on here. Trump hasn't delivered on probably 75% of the bullshit he promised (I'm not even counting the stuff he never had any intention of doing, like the Muslim registry or throwing Hillary in jail.) Bring this up to one of his cultists? "The Democrats have been obstructing, it's all their fault, blah blah blah horseshit." Same play, different country.

Corbyn has increased his standing in my eyes. Anyone who can get this thin-skinned prick's chins to quiver in pudding-like indignation can't be all bad. Mean old Jezza said nasty things about you, does baby need his bottle? Bless.

A stretched neck, with any luck.

Nobody's bothered about your life story you sister-fucking mutant. Off you pop back to League One. When you've a player some fucker has heard of, you can come back on here.

Well said. During the campaign we (I mean you, but you know what I mean) were told repeatedly that No Deal would never happen and there was going to be a cracking deal and anything else was pure Project Fear (utter scum phrase, by the way.) So anyone who voted Leave did so under that pretense. That doesn't even get into the myriad other lies that Leave told, but that is The Big One as far as I'm concerned. Trying to equate 2016 Leave with 2018-2019 literally drive the Union and the economy off a cliff no-deal insanity is just another right-wing rhetorical trick. It may fool the masses, but it hasn't and won't fool Parliament.

What majority does he plan to use to get that passed? 21 rebels are having the whip withdrawn tonight. The Tories didn't have a majority to start with and now they're underwater. The opposition could actually simply and bluntly refuse to let this government fall, take control of the Parliamentary agenda, and run the Commons without the Tory party.

Cha-lar Ser-yewnjew. Umlauts in the surname have a weird pronunciation that I can't really convey in text.

Hayden looks every inch a Championship player again, all the improvement he made under Rafa is gone with the wind. Not to single him out in particular, everyone has been rubbish today and the players look like they are barely aware of what a formation is, let alone which we're meant to be playing. It's OK though, our Geordie manager and crocked Geordie striker are all that us Geordies care about. EDIT: Oh do fuck off.

I'm sorry, I'm having trouble understanding you. Are you a Liverpool FC supporter? Liverpool are a pretty great side, aye. Class win yesterday, really showed they've lost none of their ruthlessness. Actually I watched a video analysis of Newcastle's chances of finishing above Liverpool. Here's the link if you're interested.

I don't think you'll be able to sing very well with Mike Ashley's cock down your throat. Might go a little more like "mmmmmm mmmm mmmm mm mm mmmmmm." Not quite as catchy.

Christ

That wouldn't make business sense, and as we all know Mike is a business genius and a football genius as well.

Another attempt from Fatso to rub it in our faces. "All right Keith, have a few bullshit rumours leaked that we're in talks with some progressive manager from the Continent. No, I don't have any fackin' idea who, just Google it, you caant. Drag it out long enough for them to start believing and then have Brucey unveiled. Priceless! I can't wait to see their norvern mankey faces!"

Pound foolish and penny foolish as well. Let the best manager since Robson go for free having given him nothing to spend on players - pay 4m for Steve Bruce (and might as well earmark his severance pay now for when he's sacked in March) and fund his rebuilding of a depleted squad bereft of quality or leadership. This is 100% to spite us. There is no way even Mike Ashley thinks this is good business sense. It is purely to get one back at us for singing nasty songs and loving Rafa so much.

We turned against Peter fucking Beardsley when he became an Ashley arselicker, why in the fuck did this moron think Shola, Carver and Kevin Nolan would be more highly venerated than an actual club legend? Shola is employed by the club now, so he's tainted, and the chuckle bros Carver and Nolan are failed managers in giz-a-job mode so they'll also mouth anything that they think will get them work (not to mention, they probably both correctly reckon that this is the only PL club fucked up enough to consider employing them.) They can all get to fuck. It is impossible to be loyal to NUFC and defend Ashley. Anyone who purports to do so is lying.

Exactly correct. Fatass has a proven track record for giving shit managers loads of money to blow and letting talented managers starve. As you say, when Pardew was on a purple patch and we finished 5th, it would've been the perfect time to invest heavily in the squad. Some of the pain might've been alleviated. There might've been a road back for Ashley. But instead, we cut our own throat to stop the nosebleed of Europa League football. Of course, Fat Sam and McClaren, easily the worst permanent managers we've had in Fatty's time, had fortunes (comparatively) thrown at them to flood the squad with dross. I fully expect us to sign up to 50m of players this summer now that Rafa has gone.. But it would've been no net spend again if, somehow, he'd signed the extension and stayed another year.

I'm offended. You only included Irish people in your list of potential terrorists. You need to be more inclusive in your racist stereotyping.

Stay and get fucked around by Ashley for another year on the same terms and maybe finish 11th vs. leave honourably at the end of your contract and take up a new job on triple the salary. Very difficult decision. I'd have done the same and so would you, you self-righteous gobshite.

12m? Should be at least 25, he's better than Donkeyvic.

Owner renowned for fucking popular managers over fucks popular manager over. Without any hyperbole, it is entirely possible that we will never have a better manager from this point on. Goodbye Rafa, thanks for everything. Can't wait to see what clown the FCB will dredge up to replace him. Roy Keane just left Forest, maybe he's up for a challenge?
