Ashley's United V Lesta League Cup 2nd Round
Kid Dynamite replied to trooper's topic in Newcastle Forum
Ah well. At least our reserves gave a full strength Leicester a decent game. Sexy penalty by Schar too -
Whilst I get that "you're either offside or you're not", clearly it's not as binary a decision as whether the ball has crossed the goal line or not. There's too many variables. - Defender stepping up - Striker moving forward - Which fraction of a second counts as the ball being played - What body parts count as being offside? It's impossible to differentiate the couple of inches between the chest/shoulder/arm from a side angle It's ruining the game watching the crowd and players going mad celebrating for 60 seconds only to have the goal chalked off because the player was 3cm offside at the point the VAR ref decides to stop the video frame and then manually draws lines on the screen. We should go to a DRS type system with a margin of error. If the offside is within 13cm then they just go with the onfield decision/refs call. The offside rule was brought in to cut out goal hanging. Not to rule out goals for tiny infractions

Disagree with the last line. 9 men behind the ball and 1 up front is hardly a masterstroke and, as others have said, simply following in the footsteps of Rafa's gameplans against the top 6. It's the players who deserve credit for the result. If we can start beating the likes of Norwich consistently then I'll consider laying some of the credit at Bruce's door

He's actually come out and admitted he sent the messages I think I'd have been going down the "fake news" route myself like

Yeah, if Michael Dell is looking to properly invest in a football club, he isn't going to pick one in League one that plays in a shithole town like Sunderland

Maybe it was obviously just my Freudian fantasises coming to the fore -

I mean licking a lasses hoop is one thing, but asking to suck the fanny juice off another man's cock is into the realms of a bit weird iyam -
Is anyone watching the Wolves game? The fucking clip of VAR man
-
So Lee Clark is doing well... 4 games played and 4 games lost. Bottom of the league. He's also trying some bizarre power play by picking an argument with one of our players and trying to send him out on loan. Guess which one of these he reckons we don't need in the squad

I can't figure out what I'm supposed to be seeing here? Help me out

Given we are still under investigation for dodgy tax arrangements on deals they would be crackers to do it again!

Interesting if true. Did they provide sources that every premier league ground uses the same cameras? -

Good explanation of why VAR doesnt work for tight offside calls -
There's still something iffy about this deal like. Mitro, Widjnaldum, Thauvin, Cabella, Almiron, Shelvey, Murphy, Townsend, Richie all cost £12-16mil. That always been our glass ceiling under Ashley, irrespective of how much TV money comes in Then with absolutely no desire/pressure from the manager, he agrees to spunk £40 mil on a player in February that is probably worth half that? Given we missed out on the likes of Pepe, Lacazette, Modric, Aubameyang etc. by arguing over adding £1-2mil to the fee, this reeks of kickbacks from an agent or similar

Delia's Dick Suckers V Bruce's Barmy Brigade
Kid Dynamite replied to Anorthernsoul's topic in Newcastle Forum
Alex made a considered response to my post which was reasonable so I liked it. I have my opinions but I'm willing to have my mind changed on anything -
Delia's Dick Suckers V Bruce's Barmy Brigade
Kid Dynamite replied to Anorthernsoul's topic in Newcastle Forum
Rafa left 2 games ago. Did you really not care or get any excitement last season? Last season the crowd went ballistic when the 3rd went past Pickford against Everton. They went ballistic when we beat Man City, probably the best team since the Premier League began. We've had 2 shit games, and probably a lot more to come, but it's bollocks to say that people have just stopped caring over time. Unless that time is the last fortnight? -
Here, I reckon Fist working on the lines and Ant playing football get far more mentions than me!
