Reminds me of when we played Liverpool at home (last season?) and the ref blew the whistle as we went ‘clean through’ on goal in added time.

Pretty sure that was Simon Hooper??

Brentford game.

45 minutes (two goals + one substitute due to injury) generates 3 mins of added time.

3 mins of added time (nothing) somehow generates 1 and half minutes of added time.

The PGMOL are just making up the rules as they go along.

He’s a very decent third choice left back.

#NUFC aren’t in position where we can afford (or keep happy) three first choice left backs.

We should be grateful Burn’s available to do a job there sometimes instead of moaning because not playing like Paolo Maldini.

Sheffield Wednesday were relegated in 2021 due to a PSR points deduction, which obviously helped them out immensely when it comes to generating income.

Please enlightened us as to how else have football’s financial regulations have protected them from slipping into administration?

Why?

How would letting him train with the first team have benefitted #NUFC?

Must be something in the Merseyside air that makes people obnoxious.

Strange that it doesn’t affect players / managers that go to Everton

🤔

Players that go down with an injury just off the pitch, then roll back on so the game has to be stopped, should be shown a red card.

Concerns ‘he would struggle to play well past 30’

Well past 30 being the age most players retire?

See Isak going on strike is increasing being talked about like he was injured.

Slot saying he missed three months is also bullshit. He was training as normal until the Celtic game (19/07) and signed for LFC 01/09.

That’s 44 days, during which he was training alone / in Spain.

Who would you play at LB?

Matt Black @jazzstandard.bsky.social · 4d

Hope so, lot more to his game when the mental shackles are off.

Got better as the game progressed.

It was like he forgot he was ‘the kid’ and just started playing football.

Needs game time.

Ref was very strange tonight.

This trend of match officials just making it up as they go along needs to be given more attention by the media

Still haven’t seen a repeat of a foul being given for an attacking player being too close to the wall at a free kick (Eze’s disallowed goal for CPFC)

West Ham have the air of team heading for the drop.

Obviously not playing well, but there is that aura of despondency around the whole club that usually ends in relegation.

Ross Wilson’s decision?

Be a big call to make after being in post little more than a week.

Everyone at Newcastle United thanks Becky sincerely for her service to the club and wishes her the very best in her future career."

Well colour us shocked!!!!!

Can’t say I have noticed any #NUFC supporters attacking or defending Wissa.

What is he being accused of?

Matt Black @jazzstandard.bsky.social · 7d

The difference is now they get to inflict their negativity on a much wider audience.

Also feels like a lot more ‘supporters’ expect the moon on the stick nowadays and anything less than perfection is viewed as unacceptable.

Imagine the reaction if we lost the play off to Sunderland now?

I don’t write workplace policy documents for a living, but…

Negative or aggressive language that is disproportionate to that warranted.

It’s really just a case of ‘do unto others as you would have them do unto you’

Nothing wrong with constructive criticism, but SM normalises abusive criticism

In isolation a single abusive post is irrelevant. Collectively they become a destructive force that shapes the ‘real’ world

Hateful language breeds hate.

Lewis Miley turned off the comments on his recent X post celebrating his 50th appearance due to the negative responses.

If he turned up at the Strawberry after the match to celebrate nobody would be slagging him off to his face.

SM is not like having a chat over a few pints.
