Depends on the company/job really doesn't it, Can't really work from home if you work in retail/bars/restaurants/leisure can you

No, Not a chance. He would be out of a job by November

honestly have no idea what he actually does. We have no tactics at all, can barely pass a ball to someone in the same colour shirt & have seen better defending in the blind football in the paralympics

Still some hope we may actually get the 1 more point required in the final 10 games to actually do a Fulham and finish on 26 points

TBF he always seems to have it 15 mins before it's announced officially and always right

Despite generally being a glass is empty type, F**k it, 2-1 win or maybe a 3-2 loss...

Looks like Bellingham is on his way to Utd. Him & his family pictured leaving Carrington this afternoon

Maximin has 3 goals & 4 assists in 21 appearances (2 & 2 in 18 league games) El Ghazi has 6 goals & 7 assists in 30 appearances (4 & 4 in 24 league games)

Same mail journo that said bruce & maximin had a huge bust up now says maximin said he was not happy at being left out of the team but there was no bust up or row. In other words he completely made it up... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8088427/Allan-Saint-Maximin-confirms-not-happy-left-Newcastle-team-weekend.html Allan Saint-Maximin has confirmed that he was 'not happy' after being left out of the Newcastle team against Burnley last weekend. Sportsmail revealed last week that the winger was upset that manager Steve Bruce had suggested afterwards he was not fit enough to start. Saint-Maximin, we are told, believed he was fit. We understand Bruce had told the squad he wanted 'warriors' against Burnley and, while there was no physical or verbal confrontation with Saint-Maximin, the Frenchman felt aggrieved at being 'dropped'. 'I feel good, my body feels good. I have been running a lot and trying to help my team,' he told the Shields Gazette. 'I stay on the bench against Burnley, and after, it's normal, when you don't play, you cannot be happy.

I guess it isn't that noticable in the case of the union flag but upside down / back to front flags can cause issues at other times : If you're stood on the podium at the olympics and happen to be from one of these countries it can be very easy to mess it up Ireland & Ivory Coast Indonesia & Poland (Monaco is also the same as indonesia in a slightly different shade)

Thick part of the white stripe should be at the top next to the flagpole

Nothing to do with Newcastle i know but For those that wan't some Leicester numbers: Jamie Vardy, 80% Whatever Jamie Vardy was snorting 10% Ranieri %5 Mahrez 2% Kante 2% Everyone else 0.9% Stupid plastic clappers 0.1%

quite funny people having a pages long debate about how little influence a manager has when this thread & the bruce thread have hundreds of pages blaming him for everything

Seems the journalist in question used to work for Newcastle/ NUTV before being sacked/let go. Maybe he has a good source or maybe an axe to grind, Who knows but Saint-maximin was briliant for about an hour last night so he didn't look like he was too pissed off. Maybe he was upset about not playing at the weekend and said something to someone, plenty of players i'm sure do whine about not being picked, especially if the consider themselves fit but if the medical lot are saying not to play him then they generally have the final say. Most people have been criticising Bruce for playing injured players/rushing them back due to nobody else available, He decides not to risk someone on this occasion as they had cover & also gets slaughtered for it...

Looks like he's going to get up & nut him about 58 secs in, proper angry death stare which you don't really see from Bruce very often

Mad really isn't it, You can't really blame them for taking what is offered though and there are plenty of people around that make some/most of them look like paupers but the equivalent of 1 days pay from a single player would change most normal peoples lives immesurably for the better

I guess it should probably apply to all/most of them too really, Not exactly a bunch of spring chickens are they as Bloomberg is also 78 & Biden 77, Hell Elizabeth Warren is practically a baby at 70 & Trump is nearly 74. Not really the best people to be heading out on an arduous campaign trail where they surround themselves with hundreds/thousands of potentially infectious strangers every few hours & i'm not really sure the pressures & stress that go with that job (or pretty much any job) are a good idea for anyone in their 80's

Sanders is 78 & had a heart attack a few month ago, If i was him i wouldn't be shaking too many peoples hands whilst out campaigning

Some of you indie/folkey pop types may like this. Very, Very new as you can tell from the single figure views on youtube. Debut album (Mixed by John Leckie) released a couple of days ago & the whole thing is available on Youtube if you like it.

They changed it this season. there have been no replayes from the 1/4 finals onwards for a while and they scrapped it in the 5th round from this year too. Replays are only really beneficial to smaller teams and usually only 1 or two teams left at this stage that are outside the prem/championship anyway. For this season any games that go to extra time the losing side will get 25% of the prize money (£90,000 to the losers, £270,000 for the winner) for going through to balance out some of the potential financial loss from a replay. FWIW i do actually agree with it completely, keep them for the prelims & rounds 1-4 and scrap them after that. Most of the teams left in the last 8 every year are still in europe, trying to get there again or going for promotion in the championship. The last thing any of them need/want is replays and it may actually encourage managers to put out better teams knowing it is a simple one-off tie rather than resting a load of players knowing there is a chance of a replay to either rely on to get through if they want to or dread if they don't care about the cup

Now lost 3 out of the last 4 games & have failed to score in all 3 Load of shite
