    Just waiting for the inevitable hit piece one of the **** mag journalists do. Hope / Edwards / Caulkin ( what happened to him? #cans) probably come out on Friday or Saturday to try and unsettle us.

    I used to hate the build up to these games, always nervous and filled with dread, not this time though because I really think we will come out all guns blazing and blow the bastards away. Class thread RTB as always and done with a touch of wit.
    3-1 to the lads with Granit on the scoresheet to cause pandemonium in the stands.

    It's inevitable isn't it ---- 'PSG tracking RLB' ---- is my guess.

    I'm actually pleased with the choice of referee, Newcastle will attempt their usual agression and shouting at the referee.

    I just hope we don't rise to it and allow them to pick up a few early bookings.

    Still hate the build up to a derby! Even though we've got a great record at home, there's always that nagging doubt with my stomach doing somersaults

    It'll either be an important player / RLB leaving or KLD is in trouble / selling up

    That's been shown on here a few days ago (it's displayed in a few places around the city) . . . . it's a lovely, and discreet, way of displaying F.T.M., isn't it :angel:

    Someone at the council has done a good job with 'hiding it in plain sight' :emoticon-0105-wink:

    I always feel nervous about the Derby...

    We lost against Chitty and missed a couple of chances..

    So either we bounce back, yes, or ???

    We really need 3 points, beating the skunks is an extra bonus!

    Didn’t see much bitching and moaning on socials after the City game.

    Feels like this team and these owners have achieved the impossible and completely reeet the mindset of the fanbase.

    The negative voices will always remain but they drowning in a barrel of Granits piss right now.

    Beautiful.

    Thinking of chants for the game, I like 'Sold your souls for the money, you sold your souls for the money'.

    We lost against Burnley and bounced back.

    We lost against Man Utd and bounced back.

    We lost against Fulham and bounced back.

    We lost against Man City....I think the odds for bouncing back look pretty good.
