Chris Hughton?

“Fans”

Yup. Not just NUFC either (though that doesn’t help). Throughout the league - so many overly defensive ‘low block’ games, SO much diving, WWF corners, set piece reliance, PSR/CSR closed shop. Falling out of love with it all.

I don’t understand the barely concealed glee that some supporters are showing over our current form and Howe’s struggles. It just makes me sad. I love the fella, he’s the best manager we’ve had in modern times and will be remembered as a legend if and when he leaves. #nufc

Yes. But I don’t think he will be here next season.

Improved 2nd half but nowhere near the levels required. We look
utterly bereft of confidence and just waiting for the season to end. Think most fans feel the same tbh. Tonali MOTM. #NUFC #NEWBOU

Bournemouth by far the superior team that half. Very confident, very sharp & organised in press. #NUFC mostly chasing shadows but for an even first 15mins. Terribly weak defending from Livramento for the 3rd game in a row. Urgh. #NEWBOU

Definite Bob vibes. I thought the same.

Some of these Fesses, you think why does that even need to be anonymous. This is NOT such a Fess.

This is good 😁🤣

I try not to be seduced by YouTube clips but this lad looks like some prospect and fingers crossed we can get him.

Made that announcement on Sunday I thought.

Requiem for Whoever   It’s time now to sleep for the long day is through, and bright shine the stars in memory of you, as you slip from this realm into another but still in our hearts, dear precious a) lover b) family member c) friend or d) business associate (please delete as appropriate).   We will carry you with us, your sun will not set – after all, is there anyone here who could ever forget your a) thirst for adventure b) generous spirit c) good sense of humour or d) love of test cricket.   You were unique; a one-off. But now sadly missed. You were cherished by all – for who could resist your a) infectious laughter b) pale blue eyes c) pencil moustache or d) powerful thighs.  

You taught us so much about what’s right and what’s true, and I would like to think I’ve inherited from you your a) deep sense of justice b) pursuit of perfection c) devilish good looks or d) record collection.   Without you this planet is a shabbier place. It’s empty and pointless. A profound waste of space. For cruel Death snatched you from us a) far too soon b) after a good innings or c) last Tuesday afternoon   and so it is that we are gathered here together to pay our respects and say goodbye to whoever in this beautiful a) crematorium b) sacred site or c) suburban back garden in the middle of the night,   and know that all of us here wish you the best as you begin your new journey a) to eternal rest b) to a heavenly realm of joy unalloyed or c) kicking and screaming into the void.

Today’s poem is called ‘Requiem for Whoever’.

It’s one of my more tender, thoughtful poems, as I attempt to gain a small share of the lucrative funeral poetry market.

“I am hereby demanding free publicity for my racist book”.

Our fans have short memories. The stick Howe is getting on social media is embarrassing. I hope he resigns and goes to a more loyal fanbase tbh. Guy took the club from relegation to a cup and UCL qualification but one bad season and he’s toast. #nufc

Bang on! 15 mins in today and it was same auld same auld. Defences well on top, both teams lacking guile, playing safe, waiting for a mistake or a corner/long throw. Dross.

They wanted Emre didn’t they? Then Howe.

This is classic Monk!

Deconstructing the right wing media agenda piece by piece, exposing them for what they are…fear and hate mongers.

Depressing that this is necessary.

This is so well done. 👌

Sure he’d do similar if in charge of Everton.

Three word film review: “Giant”

Dreadful cheap biopic.

When mom and dad say the magic word

This is Molly. She was finally found a week after her human fell down a 180-foot waterfall while hiking together in New Zealand. Her human was badly injured and rescued by helicopter, but Molly was missing. A week later, Molly was found at the base of the waterfall and reunited with her human. 14/10

What took you so long? Have the courage of your convictions man. #rejoin

Daily Mail front page attacking Keir Starmer for Donald Trump’s disgusting behaviour…

This is an extraordinary front page for a British newspaper to run. Donald Trump’s delinquency, derangement & imperilling of international security is somehow a stick with which to beat our own Prime Minister, who has negotiated the current horror show rather well. It is actually sickening.
