    When you sell your soul to the devil, the outcome is inevitable. Maybe Ashley is not so bad after all.

    Don't let the Toon fans hear you say that. They're the most hard done by supporters in the country don't ya know.

    Steve Bruce has 6 games left to reach and pass the best points total Rafa Benitez achieved at Newcastle, according to a report I read this morning.
    Currently on 42, with Rafa’s highest being 45.
    I like Bruce, as he is one of the few managers, in post match interviews in the past, to compliment us when beating his team, instead of hiding behind excuses.

    Now there's a subject for discussion: "The Most Hard Done by Supporters in the land."

    Got to be Arsenal! They are in a class of their own.

    And although not as massive, that's a big 96th minute equaliser for Derby.

    I would like to nominate one Sergio Ramos as the most loathsome footballer on the planet. People talk about certain PL.sides being awarded soft penalties. RM.are the most favoured side in the world. And a team that has assembled its talents from all around the world can only beat a team.of locals by a penalty should hang it's head in shame.

    Can we just have a moment to appreciate Stuart Sinclair from Walsall.

    Neither side really look willing to take a risk. Got penalties written all over it, at the moment.

    That should have been a red for Taylor.

    Social distancing has hit the pirating industry rather hard, if they're forced to moonlight as League Two midfielders.

    Curious whether a penalty shootout in front of nothing but sparrows is a little less nervy, even with the stakes being the same.

    Must be a bit odd without scores of people giving you the ****er sign and calling you a **** behind the goal.
