The Fish

Called it. Smith was actually all right, and Margot Robbie was good, but the storyline was a mess, the badguy was predictably terrible, and they obviously devolved into a CGI-monster mash for a bit as well. Wouldn't be surprised if Robbie's Quinn gets a stand-alone movie, but it'd need to be R-rated. Will Smith's Deadshot could probably do ok in other movies, but he chewed his way through too much scenery so he'd either have to be the star or a cameo.

Is she a drugs cheat?

Decent shout, but I don't think he's featured for Rafa at all this season, has he?

Nope, forgot about Gouffran and Saivet at first as well.

Aye, Galloway's delay is understandable. Looks like everything was conditional on Everton getting Kone from the mackems, that doesn't look likely now so we might have to wait for them to sign another CB from elsewhere? Knockaert looks dead in the water now he's signed a new deal as well. re: Forestieri, Whoscored says this of him

She wants the sweeps to push/pull the detritus up the flue? I wouldn't think that was a goer.

You've predicted Newcastle to score 4+ in each game, and yet your pessimism contradicts those predictions entirely. You're being Contrary Tree again and it's boooooooring. "too depressed about Newcastle to argue" Get a grip, you Mumsnet Mimsy.

What was the resolution in the end? Get a man in to tear the wall down and get rid of the carcass?

Worried that we've fallen into the old habit of focussing on 1 target (Galloway, Knockaert, Forestieri) and when that falters/fails, we're not far enough down the line on another to get it done in a timely fashion.

Makes sense. I think our game will look a lot more balanced once Mitrovic (or another big striker) takes part.

Abso-fucking-lutely. Although, I wouldn't actually mind Anita playing if it's at RB; Janmaat isn't covering himself in glory with his defending at the moment so let him loose on Championship fullbacks, stretch the pitch! Give Shelvey someone to find with longer balls. Anita all too often pulls into the already congested centre and offers little going forward anyway. Dummett has been terrible, so lets give Gamez and Clark their chance.

GK - Krul, Elliott, Sels, Darlow RB - Janmaat, Gamez, Mbabu, Sterry, Anita* CB - Mbemba, Lascelles, Hanley, Clark, Dummett, Hayden* LB - Dummett*, Gamez*, Clark, Haidara, Colback*, Mbabu DM - Hayden, Tiote, Anita, Colback, Saivet, Clark* CM - Diame, Shelvey, Anita, Colback, RW - Ritchie, Aarons, Gouffran, Perez*, Janmaat* AM - Diame, Perez, Ritchie* LW - Aarons, Ritchie, Gouffran*, Perez* CF - Mitrovic, Gayle, Armstrong, Perez, That's depth, and when a couple of positions are strengthened (either by returning players or new additions) and it clicks, it's strength in depth. Also, if you're this pessimistic, why the fuck have you predicted Newcastle to win by 4+ goals in each of the three rounds of games?

Tupperware box with leftover bolognese/chilli/whatever you can microwave is perfect to get you through a hangover at work.

Pretty much same first team isn't it?

and elbow patches.

Reckon they've got a better balance to their first teams, but we've better depth. It's just currently unbalanced. 2-3 more signings and we're in much, much better shape imo.

I know that most of it is an instant knee-jerk emotional reaction to a disappointing result against a side most didn't fancy. But Huddersfield are going to surprise a lot of teams this year imo. I think worrying about not getting promoted after 2 games is way too early, especially when we've not yet played what most would consider our 1st team.

Nope, and wouldn't bother, but I reckon it's the marketing that's bothering people more than the actual product.

Anonymously.

Who does?

misses 2 more games through suspension, should be back for the Cheltenham cup game, or the Brighton game in the league.

there's a few stats doing the round on twitter;

Just so I'm clear, we're losing our collective shit at the way a packed lunch box is being marketed?
