Internecine Caledonian cross city rivalry is only for the chosen few on TT

Fuck you jambo 🖕🏼 Dwight Gayle with the winner for the Hibees ☺️

I think Onana will be tasked with strangling Bruno. I saw him v Man City the other day and they’re a different side with him in it…

We’ve just had the original Now that’s what I call Christmas album on… had to explain who Gary Glitter was to brother in laws Finnish missus and his teenage son…bit awkward 😆

Am having to sit through that utter bullshit yet again after TNS-P Mrs PL took advantage of a 99p/month MGM/prime offer… it’s just fuckin wrong 😩 Brother in law, his mammoth titted Finnish missus and his son are here. BIL is drinking my fuckin whisky already 😑

£15 so yeah merry fuckin Christmas 😑🤪

I had the radio on and they were interviewing a couple who had done that….. they also spoke to some folk at Sandringham…

Them taking the piss out of any regional accent displays a lack of self awareness verging on the astonishing Al Murray did a routine about it….

Not sure why you’ve mentioned Longstaff (3 times) am talking about how Tonali was wandering through games like a lost sheep. That’s fuck all to do with Longstaff who I’ve never suggested was anywhere near good enough for where our owners see the club heading. Longy didn’t cost 50/60 million(?) and wasn’t a gambling addict before and after he joined the club though. Obviously Tonali couldn’t help himself , it would appear he’s an addict . He needs deserves and should get all the help he needs but now he’s receiving that help in a culture of openness it’s all on the player to perform. Thats why I was pissed off with Tonali, yes you could see he was a talent but he wasn’t doing it and after the circumstances of his suspension etc he, for me, needed to hit the ground running which he failed to do. I had him down as another in a long line of talented players who couldn’t quite get it together at SJP. And let me tell you, after 3 games v limited opponents this jury is still out on the the tally bastard 😑😆

Am aware. New year went on till at least 12th night in my teenage years, we lived 30 steps from the village pub so every fucker came round for at least a week to first foot, some nefarious characters at least 3/4 times 🤪

Now then Maurice, don’t drag me into your petty squabbles on here, it’s the season of goodwill to all men, even Yorkshiremen

Yeah, the signs are great tbh. I watched the Man City v Villa game on Saturday, Onana is so important for them in the same position, they’ve really missed him when he’s been injured. I think he might get tasked with keeping Bruno quiet on Boxing Day…

See and try and get the fuckers back to work after Hogmanay though 😑

“Central midfield” mate, you, me Eddie mad dog and the world and his wife didn’t see much in him till just over a week ago. Nothing would give me greater pleasure than this side playing to its potential and proving doubters like myself wrong.

Brentford and Leicester reserves, and an abysmal Ipswich side. Let’s see how the season goes

If I’d said to you what is Tonali’s best position a month ago what would you have said? He’d never put a dominant performance in for us at any stage and now after three very good performances I’ve read on three occasions since Saturday that he’s world class I hope to fuck he is world class but let’s not start sucking each other off until we see how he gets on v McGinn, Tielemans and Onana on Thursday

Has anyone actually said that?…. Apart from me obvs It’s taken Eddie some time to come up with a system to get the best out of him and Bruno….

That’s precisely what the daft fucker said the other night when they beat Man U

Well that’s the point. Bakayoko is a risk, Jarrod Bowen is the type of player we need. That’s an upgrade. We’re not getting a player that’s likely to hit the ground running. I suppose am saying we need to relax our expectations for next month. Howe might concentrate on the centre back we need, and maybe a back up striker? ..

An “upgrade” means what though? More consistent with the same skill level? For the money we’re likely to have available I’m suggesting that such a first team ready player isn’t out there…
