Nick Pope having his first touch tested by the GK coach. Knocking the ball into feet for him to control and knock back. Well that's reassuring.

Been a lot of Liverpool coverage so far. I assume Eddie told them to whistle for an on pitch interview in the hour before the game.

Been fine all day, but the knotted stomach is fully set in now.

Looks like his acca just got busted.

At least Slot speaks well about us. Not the shit you get from Arteta about us being long ball kings of the dark arts.

Slot's had a French polisher out working on his head by the look of it. Wtf.

Eddie will have a plan.

Ultra Konate starts for them, so he got over his injury the tosser.

Is ITV just showing the Sky broadcast? It's got Sky Sports Football in the top right corner of the screen.

ITV's opening credits must have cost them at least a fiver.

ITV, cos I can't be fucked with Carragher and Neville as co-comms, where Neville gets to be "honorary Newcastle fan" for the day. And cos I don't need delays in finding out about goals, so if I can get it properly live on ITV, that's the way to go.

I don't think he'll share your enthusiasm. 16 minutes to team news and ITV getting turned on.

Just a quick prediction: Liverpool will lift the trophy, and Salah will definitely not have to go off after 10 minutes with an injury.

Win outlr game in hand and we're 4th.

They're so fucking weird. Shite people.

"Made my feelings quite clear as I passed" Ran past with tears streaming down his face.

Could be worse, I've just been to the garden centre for a coffee with the in-laws and had to endure her dad's 15 minute epic about his visit to the opticians. A story that no one else on the planet would have considered even worthy of a 30 second update, which he spun out into a 15 minute anecdote. Entirely regulation. No change to his prescription.

Get the itvx app on your phones lads.

Bruno will need to keep a lid in his emotions, especially against the prick Macalllister. He loves leaving one in on the argies. We don't need him having the wrong sort of Gazza moment.

Good lads Brentford.

If we lose tomorrow, the curse of the Gloom overly confident prediction will have struck again.

Man City ended in a draw. It's mad how much their home invincibility aura has evaporated. Anyway, if Arsenal do us a favour tomorrow, we can go 4th if we win our game in hand.

Brighton level v Man City. We're still 6th as it stands. Forest can still fuck up like. They're playing one of the whipping boys today.

Our man has had a cup final glow-up. Keeping the voodoo to this thread cos I don't want to start a second one. Bring the curses!
