Anyway to be honest, I was going to watch Leicester tonight, but can't get the red button, so I got stuck with Newcastle, because there was no way I could lower myself to watch Middlesborough.

Red button?

Bloody hell it's so old fashioned down there?

Just so we are ready, I in a previous life said Bruce should be shotgunned in the face

If Eddie Howe loses against Sunderland, he will be entering that category.

Their 1st 11 is worn out mate and they don't have the squad depth to push on in the CL.
They did themselves proud and will be better prepared next time.

Yeah they'll definitely be wiser for it come next season.

But I don't think they managed their group games smartly. Far too gung-ho in most of them and at this level where every team is a master of the dark arts and can kill momentum at will, you do need to be smarter than that.

I know they've had bad luck with injuries this season but I think Howe's overall squad management hasn't been amazing and he hasn't rotated nearly enough, reflecting the fact that he is yet to learn how demanding CL competition is. He should've been rotating from September.

Who the fook said Newcastle were brave, that second half we could have put out a League One side and they would have played better, that's how bad it was, why are people kidding themselves, is it some how glamorous because it's Toon, honestly mate it could easily have been a thrasing if half the Milan chances were put away. The score flattered Newcastle and left the dreamers still dreaming over winning nowt for yet another season, and many more seasons from what I saw.

I'm seeing plenty of pundits saying it and plenty on social media.

There is a world beyond the walls of this forum you know <laugh>

Brave, so you what you mean is following the hype, what absolute bolloxs. As I've already said it should have been 1-4 Milan or more, just because a load of Howe cock suckers thinks it brave and across social media don't make it so. I say what I saw a pile of shhite in that second half. Absolute embarrassment, even Udinese done Milan over, that's akin to a Leicester youth team ffs. Oh yeah er hang on...
