  1. Be fucking tremendous if he just blew Mar A Lago up. Broadcast live from the situation room with Biden in his aviators, eating an ice cream. The Democrats still haven't woken up to the fact that this lot are completely serious about installing Trump as the King of America.
  2. READ: Justice Sotomayor's warning in her dissent: "When [the president] uses his official powers in any way, under the majority's reasoning, he now will be insulated from criminal prosecution. Orders the Navy's Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune. Let the President violate the law, let him exploit the trappings of his office for personal gain, let him use his official power for evil ends. Because if he knew that he may one day face liability for breaking the law, he might not be as bold and fearless as we would like him to be. That is the majority's message today. Even if these nightmare scenarios never play out, and I pray they never do, the damage has been done. The relationship between the President and the people he serves has shifted irrevocably. In every use of official power, the President is now a king above the law."
  3. Nice little setup for Project 2025. Trump can now do whatever he wants while in power. And meanwhile the Democrats are banking on people ignoring the fact that Biden is cognitively impaired, and voting for him because he tells the truth a bit more than Trump.
  4. God knows what official vs unofficial acts means, but this doesn't sound good. Why the Democrats didn't just pack the Supreme Court is beyond me. Some of the shit that these crackerjacks are pulling off is mental.
  5. First off, I like how he starts his piece with (a paraphrased): "There will be clever people that agree with me that these questions need to be asked, but there will also be thick cunt fan boys of the new ownership who can't even tie their own shoes and are happy to go through life with their eyes closed." Always a great way to get people to read the rest of your article. He then immediately reveals that he doesn't know the difference between transfer fees and profit on sale of a player. A bad start. The rest of it is just a typical Michael Martin misery fest. Most of what I assume he thinks are really challenging unexplained questions, are nothing of the sort. Running a football club is hard. Trying to get a completely stagnant football club to compete at the top level is even harder. Trying to do all of that whilst remaining in compliance with crazy PSR rules is harder still. Gambles needed to be taken, and were. And at the end of it all, we've managed to meet our PSR requirements by selling two peripheral players, and getting compensation for a bloke who we were paying a pretty penny to sit around his house. A pretty successful outcome all things considered. And all this bloke wants to do is piss and moan about it. Gordon and Isak are still here, but he wants to fucking moan about the fact that they might not have been. We've had our pants pulled down cos Man United only paid a reported £8m for Ashworth. What a misery.
  6. This is from chatgpt. I've no idea how this goes to the tune of Seven Nation Army. (To the tune of "Seven Nation Army" by The White Stripes) 🎶 Ohhh, Odysseas, our mighty wall, With you in goal, we’ll never fall, Vlachodimos, you’re our pride, With every save, we stand and rise! 🎶 🎶 Ohhh, Odysseas, our number one, With you in net, the battle’s won, Vlachodimos, strong and true, We're cheering loud, just for you! 🎶
  7. Man United have just announced their new $75m a year shirt sponsorship deal with Snapdragon. The woman who negotiated the deal has been rewarded for her efforts by being told that she's surplus to requirements by Jim Ratcliffe. Who knows, she might have quite wanted to go, we don't have the details, but it all just smells very Ashley-like.
  8. Whatever, it wasn't me spunking in my pants at the astronomy chat in GC the other day, fucking Gamesmaster.
  9. Twitter is the absolute dregs. If you're ever stupid enough, and I am often am, to click beyond the top level tweet into the replies, it is invariably an absolute bin-fire of the worst of humanity. I can well believe that some absolutely terrible things are being said about Miggy, but at the same time, the lad could, at the very least, read the dishwasher manual.
  10. I think the story is that they had previously made an enquiry and we attempted to reinitiate it over the weekend as a last resort.
  11. Well Liverpool didn't like the price, so I'm assuming it was in that region. Would have taken something like that to clear our PSR problem.
  12. They're taking down the Sports Direct font version of "Newcastle United" above the East Stand today.
  13. Waugh's article reported the much more sanguine "officials at the club are concerned that Gordon may have had his head turned by the interest from his boyhood club". Edwards needs clicks. That's all that is happening here.
  14. Sorry, didn't get a word of that.
  15. Maybe we're trying to build Pope's confidence back up by filling the squad with spackamalakas?
  16. See! There was logic after all. What do you think about THAT, Dougle, you dopey, ugly cunt?
  17. No I don't think it's that, Dougle. I think I just misread something on twitter.
  18. Ashworth peering over the top of his reading glasses: "Excuse me, you little Yorkshire cunt, you cleared off the bulk of your PSR selling a lad for £33m that I signed a year previous for £7m. So shut your ENTIRE face, please."
  19. Aye that's him, fuck knows why I decided he was from Norwich.
  20. I've heard you speak like you've got Highland Toffee stuck to the roof of your mouth too. Very exotic.
  21. We've just signed another keeper from Norwich. It's like FM when you put a load of bids in and forget to cancel them.
  22. Sounds like we think so, but won't know for certain til Jan next year.
