Once upon a time it would have been Newcastle but their fans have been utter entitled bellends since the takeover and the media love in, and their “love of a number 9” makes me sick. They’re like the Pompey of the north such is their opinion of themselves. On the other hand that would mean the National anthem booing scouse rats winning which would be equally funny watching them mess up. 1

It is a bit Catch 22 - Toon tip it for me as the bin dippers are more entitled knobs, most of whom have never been to Anfield.
whelk Posted March 16 Posted March 16 Take a partially sighted granny 5 seconds to see that was onside. Takes Atwell a minute
OttawaSaint Posted March 16 Posted March 16 Newcastle have done it. Yes the fans are mostly knobs but it's a good football city. Lived there for 3.5 years. Good for them.
East Kent Saint Posted March 16 Posted March 16 Well played, Joe Linton outstanding, 10 more shots than L pool with less possession!
Saint_clark Posted March 16 Posted March 16 Liverpool looked like they didn't realise it was a cup final.
SNSUN Posted March 16 Posted March 16 Trying to explain to my 6 year old how big a win this is for Newcastle. I said to put it into perspective even Saints and Norwich (wife's team) have won a major trophy in that time. "Oh my God" she says, "they must have been really bad." 1
whelk Posted March 16 Posted March 16 Last time Newcastle won a trophy Anne Boleyn was about to be executed. And like any right minded fan I am so delighted Newcastle fans are so happy and would happily trade a positive diagnosis of my cancer to just enjoy a real football city rightly having their moment. Ohh I’m so emotional. If only another journalist could be hacked to death it would make my weekend. 1 2
egg Posted March 16 Posted March 16 One of those games which I wanted both teams to lose. Newcastle deserved it though.

Did you explain that Newcastle are now owned by Saudi Arbaia so hardly some plucky underdogs? 1

Lighthouse Posted March 16 Author Posted March 16 Quite happy Newcastle won, personally. Don’t particularly like them or the PIF but at the end of the day they’re just another part of another soulless sports conglomerate. I’d rather them win the least fashionable of the big four trophies and make Liverpool’s season a bit less special. Plus everyone can now STFU about 70 years etc. In tonight’s game, Vardy on his way to another defeat, which is always nice.
skintsaint Posted March 16 Posted March 16 Do we have to play Leicester again? They look just as shite as us - so could nick that one like the Ipswich game.

aintforever Posted March 16 Posted March 16 Am pleased for Newcastle despite them being owned by murderers. Only downside is now they have won something it does make our ‘fuck all since 1976’ seem just that little bit more shit. 1

Leicester’s last 7 home games 0-3 Wolves 0-2 City 0-2 Palace 0-2 Fulham 0-2 Arsenal 0-4 Brentford 0-3 United I mean… at least we’ve seen a couple of goals since Christmas. 2

East Kent Saint Posted March 17 Posted March 17 Newcastle played 4 3 3 Saints could copy that plus have a few players put in a shift , as we used say ! 1

East Kent Saint Posted March 18 Posted March 18 To be fair Liverpool were 2nd best for 90% of the match and several Newcastle players turned up for the match , Joe Linton was outstanding although slightly annoying 😄

Wade Garrett Posted Friday at 19:38 Posted Friday at 19:38 I think he’s given Tuchel a hand picking the England side tonight. Fucking hell!

On form I wouldn’t go for Foden and prob wouldn’t go Rashford but it seems like a 4231 with players in their regular positions, which is not something you’d attribute to Ivan.
bpsaint Posted Friday at 19:59 Posted Friday at 19:59 (edited) 10 minutes into the new Tuchel reign and you’d be forgiven for thinking Russell Martin was the new England manager. Edited Friday at 20:04 by bpsaint
SW5 SAINT Posted Friday at 20:10 Posted Friday at 20:10 I’m sure Broja used to be a certain starter for Albania when at Southampton, and their star player……!?

The Kraken Posted Friday at 22:10 Posted Friday at 22:10 18 minutes ago, Wade Garrett said: Burns is nowhere near good enough though. Can’t understand why he’s playing. Kind of shows the difference between decent enough in the premier league and decent enough at top level. He probably earned his chance but looked out of sorts. Our CB options aren’t brilliant really. Also Foden and Rashford being so limp is not a good look. Thankfully Tommy Took called them out on it for being far too passive.
S-Clarke Posted Saturday at 14:14 Posted Saturday at 14:14 (edited) Our defensive options are pretty poor, when you compare to other top nations. We don't have any players, outside of Stones, that I'd class as a top level CB. There are certainly no Rio's, Terry's or Sol's in the current group. Defo our weakest area and why I've always thought we need to play to attack and score, rather than the Southgate approach to keep it tight as our defensive players aren't good enough.

Dunno - two Euro finals and a World Cup semi final. I’m not sure what else England fans would expect. He did a fantastic job. 1

Foden was so bad in that position last night.
East Kent Saint Posted Saturday at 16:38 Posted Saturday at 16:38 Not sure why Foden has gone off the boil , perhaps Pep has coached him to death along with Grealish ? 1
Tommy Mulgrew Posted Monday at 14:10 Posted Monday at 14:10 England squad for the Latvia game. According to the BBC: Southampton stopper Ramsdale is the only player from the original 26 not to be included in a matchday squad. Another commentary on our season.
suewhistle Posted Monday at 17:48 Posted Monday at 17:48 Just reading an article about Scotland after their defeat to Greece.. This caught my eye: Quote Che Adams, the centre-forward, has a rather unfortunate habit of not looking remotely dangerous near to goal. 2
