Lorenzos Only Goal

I can see us having a bit of a bounce over the next couple of fixtures. The couple of bastard fixtures are out of the way now.

Let me have a proper go He's Alex Scot, he scores a lot He's Alex, Alex, Alex Scott Rinse and repeat to the gummy bears tune.

Alex Scott has a big somthing or other and did somthing with me missus, which was a shame because if he had asked I would have let him. Or do we oy make cringy songs about dingalings for our black players?

Very short odds on him for the Carlise job now.

I would imagine he's having Chemotherapy and it's probably not practical for him to work with the players. So that combined with other stuff like being demoted would probably figure into him wanting to leave.

Agreed

The Mirror quoted them, but I like the term sports washing.

The players love the guy.

No, I think the managers that might wont bloody go there and they have enacted the change at quite a risky time for them, Bruce was liked by they players and he managed to improve position last season and this season to be fair he's been bloody unlucky. But now you have a situation where the candidates they are looking at if the press is to be believed are not great the best of them is Martinez but I cant see him going and even he would be a gamble. I mean even the Premier League have put a ban on the owners singing any kind of sponsorship deal I can see it all going tits up by Christmas. Everyone seems to think because of the money its a forgone conclusion that they will go upwards.

Well if you think Newcastle are bottom three at the moment, the last thing I would want is an unproven manager in charge and playing Championship football next season, and Uni Emery is hardly likely to want to give up his current job, and if you did his last premier league team Arsenal were dropping like stones as he got fired, then Martinez is the other name in the hat, I would have backed Bruce to keep them up and twisted in the off season. My money is on them getting relegated this year with a bag of expensive January signings.

No not by a long way are they even comparable.

The notion that Steve Gerard is anyway as good a coach as Steve Bruce when you look at their respective CV's if I were Steve Bruce I would be happy with a big check and watching things from outside with my feet up. It think Newcastle will have a rude awakening.

He is absolutely better off, I mean Steven Gérard being lined up is an insult. I get what he's done at rangers but don't people learn that SPL is a two horse race and the standard is poor.

That is true and someone has been charged with trying to flog their stewards uniform on facebook for £4,500.

I think we got off lightly. But the damage was done on the day by some idiots, why its the governments fault I don't know, it was the bloody police and stadium that were responsible for lack of planning, it was obvious after all the covid restrictions people were going to be a bit more loopy than normal.

Yes, I nearly left early it was horrible. I nearly went to that Swansea game that saw Tinman pacing the touchline wondering what the hell happened, but I went on holiday instead which was a blessing.

I think I would go Bentley Tanner - Kalas - Atkinson - Dasilva HNM - James Scott, Weimann, O'Dowda Martin Depending on the fitness of different players.

I thought it was nice how he call out Tanner, that boy gets better and better, and he is right they were better than us. Our job is to be better than the teams around and below us, there is a gulf between them and us.

Chin up dude, it's disappointing I know but try and take a step back and look at the wider picture, Bournemouth are littered with talent and money, its not the end of the world losing to them we have a window in January we just need to be punching about mid table this season. As long as we don't roll over second half and keep the score respectable its not the end of the world, though the home form does grate.

Blackpool away 2001/2002 lost 5-1 and just went home crap day.

But if you're not city we're gonna kick your fin chops in. Not sure it works aye

we lost but all is aligned now.

I'm so confused we haven't played France yet according to the FA https://www.thefa.com/england/youth-teams/results and yet the official site says Confusing.

The whole retrospective diving thing feels a bit hit and miss, we got hit with a very suspect ruling a while back I'm kind of the opinion if your going to apply it indifferently then scrap it.

I'm not sure this (https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-58818293) is a win, it feels like this was a drunken idiot who got caught because he posted some place where he got reported. It feels like this is being presented as a win, when patently its too easy to post this stuff anonymously and if you listen to some of the stuff Ian Wright is talking about (https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/56949358) it feels like this guy is the soft end of the abuse. And with Facebook getting hammered this week in the news its clear the social media giants are lying and zero ***** given where there is money involved. Does anyone know in the online harms bill if there is there a coverage that includes end user verification of real world user identity so its not just this fool who gets prosecuted its all the horrible people who are clever enough to use anonymity, at the very least it would no platform racists from social media platforms.
