Mad thing is they are 12 players short. They only have Isak, and no way is he there next season.

They bleat on about Bruno, Gordon and Botman.

Bruno would get games off the bench at top clubs, Gordon, wouldn’t get past players in his position at top clubs, and no top club would go near Botman cos his lack of pace means you can’t play fast attacking.

They have e spent a quarter of a million to be ‘half decent’, Forest and Bournemouth have genuinely better squads, which is insane.

Is it still pale yellow and lime green? Was supposed to be unsettling for the away team.

Aye it's intentional to give the away team a small cramped dressing room with ****e facilities. The other thing I remember hearing is the ability to play the crowd noise into away changing room.

I noticed the changing room on the video with O'Nien looked like it hadn't been updated since the 70s

Remember the FA Cup game at Newcastle when Notts F were beating them and they invaded the pitch. My chemistry teachers claim to "fame" was he was the 1st on the pitch. £200 fine, ouch <laugh>

That game is like a Woodstock moment for Mag fans of a certain age - so many of them claim to have been on the pitch that day that there must have been over 100,000 in the stadium that day.

Not disputing your teachers claim especially if he copped a fine, but I lived in Wallsend for many years and most of the male population made similar claims - the most common being that they ran off with the St John's Ambulance stretchers, something they were insanely proud of for some reason.

It’s the David Speedie Clockstand effect! We had about 15000 in the paddock that day! (I was in the roker end!)

Has nobody mentioned that the guy had a hold of Gordons shirt. I mean, he deserves sending off, but at the same time, should Newcastle not have been given a penalty too?

Edit : Just realised that the whistle had blown for offside already.

Absolutely no way, he briefly grabs his shirt but doesn't restrict him or pull him down.

I'm of the belief that if you grab somebodies shirt, its a foul, no matter how hard you tug. Its not like a trip or a bad tackle, its cheating and just doesnt need to be done.

My original comment meant to say that Gordon deserved to be sent off, not the defender.

Then again, I also think that if you grab somebodies shirt you should get sent off. It would stop it happening so regularly in an instant. But current rules, obviously the defender didnt do enough to be sent off, even if the whistle hadnt blown for offside.
