    Hi folks, Jonniepk here has just sorted me with a couple of Village Street tickets for Newcastle he's no longer able to attend. Total gent, even helped me through the email / app ticket transfer process via official EFC ticketing website...

    He played a lot of games on Twitch, to be fair.

    Yeah that's better than I recall. Maybe I need to revisit my Ancelotti disappointment vibes

    Can we use this thread for our 'favourite' Chico pre-match moments?

    Great post. I'd sort of forgotten we only faded late.

    We were top of the league until nearly Christmas. Told the best manager in the world there was no money to spend and for whatever reason didn’t think he might be able to tell us to do one. Once he was off to Madrid in about Jan then why would...

    A fantastic character gracing the beautiful game with a sixth sense as to what is required to win. The umami of taste in victory and raised eyebrow expression.

    How many games did James actually play?

    30 odd trophies, makes him one of the most successful elite manager's in history. Never a good fit for us at that time, though.

    Sad if true. If we're that wooden in set-up no wonder we don't get goals ( even allowing for the sitters missed by B&B, weekly ).

    Good post. Brought in by Farhad. Money. I thought the way he dressed with his everton polo shirt outside his suit jacket looked a joke, too.

    Harry Kewell, Dimitar berb. Matt Le tiss. Darren Anderton A few decent silky, jinky forward-sometimes-winger types. He's not as good as any of them, granted.

    I've not seen those games ( I've missed a few this season), but was pleased he got a run last season. If he's not clicked with Moyes and it's 'one of those' where he's faded, fair enough - that's disappointing. There's a useful player in there.

    Haha I get your point. What I'm saying is he could go that way. Right now he's a player we could use ( dreading a Jack / Ndiaye spell on the sidelines ). Plenty of players without burning pace do well especially with decent delivery, which he...

    I don't get the anti McNeil vibes. The guy isn't the kind of MARAUDING Walker/Reece James/ TTA machine right back who's a threat going forward. Or our own Leighton Baines / Seamus of times yore. Understood. But he has been good when given a...
