Cat dad and northern lad. Hillwalker. Probably “woke”. Sometime korfballer. Music, food and travel. And history and architecture. #NUFC
North-eastern England.
Like Reform? Passionate about flags? You’re going to hate me.
Behind a paywall but f*** Alexander de Pfeffel trying to rewrite history and pass the blame

It looks like something in a washing up bowl.

It looks AI generated and a bit shit.

Trump’s rehabilitation of Putin sends the message to others that if you bully your neighbours you will be rewarded with propaganda wins like the red carpet treatment he gave Putin. You may even be rewarded with new territory & the ability to meddle in other nation’s constitution

I can’t imagine they wouldn’t have pressed the flesh with Karen Kilgour at the earliest opportunity but only NUFC and NCC will genuinely know how much further things have gone.

Absolutely. They want day trippers, influencers, people who are going to sit there with a tripod and record themselves reacting to a game, the sort of people you’d cross a motorway to avoid. But that’s the business plan if you want a team that’ll do more than qualify for the CL every other season.

*other pre-match drinking destinations are available

For all the talk by Hopkinson and by Staveley before that, you won’t get a team or club that challenges Man City or Liverpool by building a 65000 seat stadium for fans who want to have a pint in the Trent, walk up to the ground, watch the match and then retreat to the City Centre.

I don’t think it’ll make a difference to availability for average fans. The way to make a new stadium a money spinner is to price out people like us and market it at an expensive price to the sort of cunts that watch Liverpool.

I’ve kind of given up on ballots this season. I’ve sort of accepted that we won something last season, we no longer need to feel inferior to fans of Wigan and Coventry and I’ve made my peace with that. Genuinely think that might be the high water mark.

For the time being and probably the foreseeable future it’s Schrödinger’s St James. Both a planning drawing waiting to advance and absolutely nothing at all. Dispiriting certainly.

Tbf he can hardly prejudice the outcome of an ongoing criminal investigation.

If I could I’d repurpose the “I have failed you meme” with the locker and a photograph of Mr Tayto.

Same.

There’ll be FOI stuff that the City Council isn’t duty bound to release either because it’s commercially sensitive.
November 21, 2025 at 6:46 PM
Of course you can’t because there’ll be consequences and such behaviour would be totally unacceptable as you know.
November 21, 2025 at 6:25 PM
Thanks for sharing! There’s so many of them. Hopefully humans and dogs stay away…
