Holden McGroin 4833 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I'm pretty sure he was calling him a cock. Â Im pretty sure I used that joke a few weeks back as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 14574 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 It's refreshing to see you incorporate other regions' slang into your own vocabulary. The only person I've heard actually calling tickets "briefs" was a scouser, which is pretty magnanimous of Stevie tbf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strawb 3656 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I've gone all football manager here like. What would you do? What do you think McClaren is going to do? How are we going to get on? How wrong is CT going to be? Its a mystery!  I expect McClaren to play  Krul Janmaat Williamson Taylor Haidara Anita Sissoko Wijnaldum Colback Gouffran Cisse  I would play  Krul Janmaat Mbemba Taylor Haidara Sissoko Wijnaldum De Jong Cabella Aarons Mitrovic  We can't defend so why try? Newcastle fans love losing 4-3 (plus other cliches) so fuck it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitman 2188 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I wouldn't play Mbemba and Mitrovic from the start. Too much pressure for a defender and striker at home when theyve never played in the PL before. Although Willo and Stevie T together is like starting 1 or 2 nil down.

Ayatollah Hermione 12756 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I reckon he'll start Obertan over Gouffran or Aarons. His interview had him saying he was going to bleed Aarons in over the course of the season and Obertan is really the only other person you can play there, especially if Cabella isn't ready yet.

trooper 940 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 (edited) I wouldn't play Mbemba and Mitrovic from the start. Too much pressure for a defender and striker at home when theyve never played in the PL before. Although Willo and Stevie T together is like starting 1 or 2 nil down.If they're fit they should start it's imperative we get points on board from the off our opening 4 games are Southampton Swansea Man Utd Arsenal  If we start without the new guys we're effectively using the team that almost got relegated last season and I honestly can't see us picking up many points. We can't afford to ease them in gently get them on get them playing. Edited August 6, 2015 by trooper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooper 940 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 From today's press conference... "I've still got decisions to make regarding the fitness of Mitrovic & Mbemba" Nailed on to start on Sunday with Williamson Colo & Taylor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 They've just scored within 5 minutes at Vitesse, they can sit back and don't have to over exert for the rest of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooper 940 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 How are you expecting him to fit the three of them in? 3-2-5 formation = attacking football that's what I'm hoping for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 14574 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Strong saints team last night, they won 0-2:  Stekelenburg, Caulker, Fonte, Yoshida, Martina, Wanyama, S. Davis, Ward-Prowse, Tadić, Mané, Pellè.  Just as Ronald Koeman said he'd pick. Just seen his brother Erwin on the local news down here, saying that they understand the "Thursday/Sunday" thing in the months ahaead but after working hard all last season whats there will be no complaints from SFC and no excuses blaming Europe if things don't pan out as they hope in the league. How very refreshing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holden McGroin 4833 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Team selection and the fitness of our key players will dictate this game. If we start with WIllo we could be in for a long day. If Colo isnt match fit i'd rather play Janmaat-Taylor-Mbemba-Haidara Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
