  1. I reckon it'll be a nervy, scrappy 2-1 win. Could see us going 2 up, them getting one back after the hour and then a rearguard action to see out the points. Atmosphere will be flat as a fart due to the kick off time.

    Does to me too. Charcoal, definitely not purple.

    The fuck was Pickford doing there
  4. Ah, only the 6 weeks? That's class news. Most of them are out 6 months when they get injured this season.

    It'll be infuriating when Rashford gets the nod in the big boy games purely cos he's a Man U player and has played for England loads before and AG gets 12 minutes to try and turn around a deficit against bloody Serbia or whatever.
  6. Was at Brewery Field today, good win for Spennymoor against a very poor Gloucester City side. 3 second half goals without reply.

    First they change the colour of our passports, now they change the colour of our flag. What next, are they going to start serving rainbow coloured LGBTQ123+ themed chicken tikka masala or have pink pints of Stella in our locals? Before you know it we'll have lost our entire national identity, you just can't say anything nowadays.
  8. Bruce and Pardew come up a lot on Undr the Cosh interviews. Most say Pardew fancied himself ("chocolate, if he could eat himself he would do") etc but generally there's fairly positive comments although nobody absolutely raving about him being brilliant etc. Can remember a fair few who don't like Bruce. Themes are that he won't pull players and explain why they're not playing and that he relies on his assistants to do everything, most say Eric Black or Clemence etc are good and Bruce doesn't do much. Theres quite a funny story on the Rowan Vine one where Bruce gives Phil Brown at Hull Vine's number and tells him to call him and see if he wants to go on loan there, without discussing the prospect of a loan move with Vine at all first. So Vine, being a bit of a dick and not very happy, gives his mate who's a plumber Bruce's number and tells him to call Bruce and see if he wants any plumbing done on the basis of "give my number out, I'll give yours out". Apparently Bruce was raging that this guy was ringing and texting constantly seeing if he wanted a new downstairs toilet or whatever
  9. He at least tried to play a decent style of football too, it was just brittle and poorly implemented. Bruce was turgid as fuck constantly.
  10. Bruce is worse than Pardew like. Pards is at least an overt southern smarmy twat whereas Bruce tries to hide behind the local lad stuff. Both love making excuses, talking themselves up and blaming everything other than themselves but Pardew didn't actively try to antagonize the fans and the press in the way that Bruce did. We at least got the unsustainable 5th place year, patches of decent footy and a European jaunt out of Pards whereas Bruce spent more than him and the footy was consistently worse. Pardew is also a far better manager than Bruce (although still not good at all). It's comparing two really shitty characters but Brucey is by far the bottom of the barrel imo.

    Starting a thread titled "This forum" is the most SMB/RTG style thing going, ironically.

    He might be good but Burn's definitely taller.
