[Football] Dan Burn and Newcastle Media Wankfest

[Flounce]

I heard one of the journalists on The Totally Football Show (Daniel Storey, maybe?) giving Eddie Howe all the credit for Dan Burn's late career development. Surely some or most of the credit should go to Potter?

NEVER

In fairness, it's Tuesday. They won it on Sunday. I don't think it's close to an end yet, nor should it be.

If Brighton win anything, I won't be satisfied until we have at least a month-long love-in with deep-dives into our rags to riches story, interviews with everyone from Attila, Samrah, the DULLARD, to Bloom, PBOBE and the players. Plus a public holiday every year thereafter and a commemorative pint glass.

Minimum

I want a statue of Dick Knight built on the seafront pointing accusingly at Eastbourne where David Belloni came from, 80ft tall and made of marble.

No doubt if we were to win a trophy, then the Stand or Fall documentary will get updated to include this success, then we can wait another decade or two before they'll finally release it

 

[Eeyore]

It's not a victory that has been bought when you consider they were forced to let Minteh come to us.

I'm not happy with their ownership, but fears of it leading to some kind of footballing dynasty are wide of the mark.

Newcastle are a major club who have won nothing for decades. Their fans are generally a pretty good and resigned lot. I don't get the hate. Although that doesn't change the matter of their repulsive murderous connections behind the scenes.

 

[SouthSaxon]

Possibly not helped by it being an international week, poor sods have only got one game to overhype

I turned the radio commentary on to see what the score was just as Burn scored.

At that point Sam Matterofact started masturbating. Dan Burn used to stack shelves in Asda apparently and on it went..... Switched the radio off again until the end.

There’s a comedy sketch in that somewhere. “Asda? You were lucky…”

You’ve answered your own point there.

More chance the stadium of shite up the road will get new cladding

Whereas Newcastle have only been out of the top flight for 5 of the last forty years, and never below the second.

 

[Cheggers]

Correct, but I could have done with a full stop at the end.

Could of. Period.

 

[portlock seagull]

In fairness, although it is a victory for sports washing, I don't think it's entirely down to that. They aren't in City's league, for example, or Chelsea's for using filthy money to polish the reputation of a horrid person or regime. PSR has done it's job there, and will likely mean that Isak does actually leave in the summer (amongst others) to continue to meet their obligations.

Yes, yes they are. You’re fooling yourself if you think otherwise. I won’t make to finer a point though, because don’t want to be murdered in an embassy or the like…

 

[JBizzle]

Oh the owners are far, far worse but because of PSR, they're less successful sports washers is what I was getting at.

 

[Peacehaven Wild Kids]

I love the city and it’s people, bit ‘meh’ about the club.

The blanket coverage on SSN got too much yesterday, so you know what I did? I turned over and watched Protection on ITV X. Not just the first episode, but all six. I really enjoyed, might appeal to anyone that likes things like Line Of Duty, however as I’m recommending it you’ll probably think it’s shit although I still think that bird from Rita Sue n Bob too is a hottie and she’s about sixty.

Which one, Rita or Sue?

 

[Peacehaven Wild Kids]

Both, truth be told. However in this instance I’m referring to Rita.

And he never ever ever had a problem reaching the top shelf.

 

[LamieRobertson]

i think its correct- Hopefully (we will get the coverage), we WILL find out in May(we will win the cup and so find out about the coverage in May.)- at least thats how I read it

I, thought, it, was, correct, as, well.

 

[LamieRobertson]

And he never ever ever had a problem reaching the top shelf.

the bottom shelf was a bit of a pain though

 

[Cheggers]

Have you seen Alma's Not Normal? Give it a watch if you haven't.

[oldboyroy]

The media are acting like it is some kind of Roy of the Rovers, giant-killing upset. Rather than a club backed with the wealth of an entire country winning the second most important domestic cup competition.

I have a real dislike for Newcastle. I can't stand the way they think they are somehow more special than other clubs.

There was no doubt the commentary team that covered our cup win over them in previous round were wanting a Newcastle win. The amount of crowing over them was unreal!
Hoping the quarter final against Forest won't be a love in for Forest and their history where they've come from in recent years blah blah blah!
