Isn’t that basically what Reform is?

[Northumbiron]

Suspect Awaywego has a list of those he would like to hang properly round the neck!

[Northumbiron]

Let’s hope so Les.

[Northumbiron]

Grant McCann recommendation no doubt?

[Northumbiron]

LOL!

Everyone thinking it’s a repeat of two years ago apart from AWG who’s thinking about scrapping with the Fish.

[Northumbiron]

That’s my Boxing Day and Easter Monday sorted out.

But Carlisle away an evening game. Do me a favour!

You don’t learn anything from winning every game 4-0!

[Northumbiron]

LOL! Loving the way everything and anything is being blamed for us not signing Manuel Neuer.

Couldn’t beat them in normal time in the LSC Final.

I noticed that CR10 didn’t feature on Friday night.

Distribution wasn’t exactly great either. I predict we’ll sign a more experienced GK and when Campbell struggles he’ll end up taking his place.

Hopefully not when we find ourselves bottom of the league.

Privy to Alfie’s contract negotiations were you?

Was you?

Of course not. And the fact that you need to ask means you weren’t either.

Which is why it’s daft to speculate.

“A fool and his money are easily parted”.

If there are those out there desperate enough to get their hands on a new strip (as this thread proves) then why not?

Plenty of idiots up here walking around in cheap, chatty NUFC shirts with “Fender 25” on the back that they shelled out £96 for.

Go for it!

No, this isn’t from Football manager, but from Mino Raiola. One of footballs biggest super agents. I was sent over individual dossiers on each player sent to me as PDF files.

No doubt there was one on Viktor Gyökeres. He’s been linked with every other club in the world so why not us?

[Northumbiron]

You may not be saying that once you’ve actually seen them!

[Northumbiron]

Not a case of writing him off, more about only having one keeper on the books.

Andy Boyce can’t really be our back-up CB, CF and GK can he?

We only ever ate fish and chips in the Magpie once. It was poor. (Mind you, it was just after the lengthy closure they’d had some years back.)
There are better places in Whitby.
The Fisherman’s Second Wife (think that’s the name) has served us well. It had some super OAP deals and a decent view.
Dunno how things are now. Must be pre-covid since our last visit to Whitby.

Fisherman’s Wife at the battery Les. More family oriented and I think it closes early evening (we never pig out at lunchtime). Trenchers on the harbour was advertising itself as the National winners of best F&C.

Mind you we went up to Fife last year to visit the so called best in Scotland and it was very average.

[Northumbiron]

Had Haddock & Chips in the famous Magpie in Whitby earlier this week (always a queue!).

Got to buy your mushy peas separately these days mind, but still top scran.

Is the Ball Retriever a bona-fide Kennel Club breed or a cross between a Pointer and a Pit Bull?

Course it doesn’t matter who you play, it’s just nice to see them tested against higher opposition, all clubs normally do it.

Premier League teams don’t/can’t.

That’s why they tour abroad. Sunderland play South Shields and Gateshead then go to the Algarve but they still don’t know who they’ll be playing. Most likely Portuguese second tier clubs. Then they play Hearts for Craig Gordon’s testimonial, followed by a visit to the Mudrats and finishing with Real Betis at SoL.

I don’t think our pre-season budget will stretch to a continental tour just yet unless the Irish Iron lads can arrange for another run out against Finn Harps.

[Northumbiron]

I want to know how Chelsea got the nod over clubs like Liverpool, Arsenal & Man Utd?

[Northumbiron]

The Heed’s attendance has risen by over 50% in recent years!

[Northumbiron]

As a former schoolteacher I can’t condone it. £3,200 fine not enough.

Staff can’t just go off on holiday in term time. Really used to piss me off and still does.

[Northumbiron]

31 degrees Celsius in Arenal d’en Castell today AWG.

I’d go for something in linen myself.

And what’s your grandson doing on holiday in school term time?
