BBC saying it won’t affect our deal

Gonna be difficult but if we score first I think we get 3 points

Trent is beginning to remind me of Dele Ali. Great start to his career before disintegrating badly. It’s not enough to chuck in a worldy pass every couple of games. You’re better than that, Trent lad, focus a bit more. If he’d been subbed after the push Newcastle wouldn’t have scored all afternoon.

Gary Holton, also in auf wiederhesen pet, was the lead singer in Heavy Metal Kids. Saw them at the Stadium with him gobbing on the crowd and opening an umbrella when his behaviour was rewarded in the manner you’d expect. A forerunner of Punk. Not sure why that’s relevant but ive got it off my chest anyway. Bit like the concert

This goes down as one of my most favouritist away games. Can't be arsed arguing VVD's red now - no point in appealing as there is a case. Upset with Shearer and Richards talking about Newcastle's chances - why didn't MOTD show a few? One Ali save and a good shot against the post. Fuck all else. If TAA had gone for body check then they wouldn't have scored at all (one way of looking at it). Fantastic scenes in away end will live in the memory for ever

I heard last Saturday, from someone with good connections at the club, that the reason Edwards and others have left is due in no small part because jurgen is very difficult to deal with. To the point of irritation. We, quite rightly, love him but perhaps he should shoulder some of the blame for the turnover in staff and dubious recruitment (or lack of it)?

We’re due a 5 or 6 there aren’t we?

Interesting that the ref who thought Kane’s tackle wasn’t a red but robbo’s was believed Ali’s red should stand. my anti-Tierney vendetta is at least equal to his anti-Liverpool position

Chelsea are struggling to put together a deal - player swap rejected earlier. I can see Chelsea pulling out and he joins us. He’ll be forgiven quickly and we’ll blame his bloodsucking advisers. Shall keep my Ecuadorean flag for the moment

Can I interest anyone in an Ecuadorean flag?

If Brighton have any class they will honour the deal and tell him it’s us or no one

If we believe CB cover is still required we should be able to use the Nectar points we’ve earned on the Caicedo deal

Is it too early to get an Ecuadorean flag for Sunday?

I don’t think the Trent experiment is working. And I think Jones and Elliot look better options than sobosslad

I won’t subscribe to a Saudi tv stream….

I’d take Eze before Olise

Trent needs to play RB, occasionally moving into midfield, rather than the other way round. And the biggest disappointment of our Singapore jaunt was the failure of an announcement from GIC.

Can this kid play DM?

Sometimes the build up is more important than the finish…..

Could we wrestle Andre from Fluminense?

There are PL rules on away tik allocation - 3000 or 10%, whatever’s lower? - but Bournemouth don’t take maximum. They only get 11k for home games.

Trent needs to go back to playing inverted full back. Not convinced he can play in midfield at all.

Someone needs to explain to Gary Gillespie the difference between benefactor and beneficiary

Did a stadium tour yesterday. The new ARE is gonna be a brilliant upgrade. But I was told it was behind schedule and the club has mooted reversing the Bournemouth fixture.

As someone first team ready. We’ve got £52m more than we thought: go for it
