Tbh most of the people that would boo left the ground when it went 3-1.

Til the end eh

I’m very worried about our left side

Loathe him on any other topic but Charlie Methven actually speaks sense on women’s game.

The progress of the WSL has gone backwards, and it seems like internationals are only time people show up. It’s heavily subsidised and loses money because people just don’t turn up/tune in to watch it.

Have to admit Thiaw is very very good. Been ran into the ground already mind

I really hope the official @safc.com accounts later tonight reconfirm that the derby is on 22nd march due to the mags getting knocked out of the cup. Just right amount of pettiness #safc

It’s great but like others say miles from anywhere, and transport links are non existent. It’s taken almost 30 years since Stadium of Light opened for the area around it to be developed (and is now really exciting). I hope for them they move quicker than we did.

All bots and the worst of society. My outlook on the world has improved so much not being on there. This still needs a bit more people and some of that original twitter ‘edginess’ wouldn’t go amiss, but no complaints

I’m convinced they know they’re off the hook or able to delay indefinitely, Guardiola extended his contract after it delayed and I think he knows. Funny business has followed him one way or another wherever he’s been

People seem to associate Sunderland with Brexit as it was the first constituency to declare result as out, but it wasn’t as emphatic as a lot of other places.

Fans care about seeing players work hard who genuinely care about playing for Sunderland and the impact on the city, which we’ve got today.

We won’t put much effort in either, we changed team massively for carabao cup and went out to Huddersfield, nobody was arsed. Owners focused on league only this season, survival is all that matters. Hope it’s on at a decent time, being cup we’ll get a good allocation and keen to get to new ground.

This was the first time Sunderland have ever come from 2+ goals down to win a Premier League game, with this the 188th time they have trailed by 2+ goals in a game in the competition (D10 L177). This time feels different.

Thing is, as much as the primary residence rule he’s quoting is inaccurate, how much does it actually get enforced/challenged by HMRC? It seems like a hard one to prove

I work in the tech industry as a recruitment manager. At my last place their grad intake reduced from 20 heads in 2024 to 5 in 2025.

We have a generation of kids pushed down the stem route that are coming out of school/uni with no career path in front of them.

Found it

I came onto here last year but went back on Twitter for transfer stuff. Habits set in and was on it loads again, and I can tell how much it was affecting me. It’s genuinely poison.

I really hope this does stick around!

This.

That’s one of the scruffiest things I’ve seen in a long time

It doesn’t make anyone any money. What a sad state of affairs

Really thought the headline was going to finish with ‘step down as mayor’. Shame

As someone involved in hiring grads, the system for it is broken. I appreciate they’re subsidising UK students but I can tell you from personal experience we’re not getting the ‘top talent’ they envisaged when the scheme expanded. We’re getting people who are being sold a lie

I’d be minded to agree with that. I think people are hoping/expecting the US pulls back from their Liz Truss moment but they will have another. Got a long 3 1/2 years left

Agree. It’s a small window of opportunity but they have to use the ‘freedom’ that the Brexit disaster has offered. English still the language of business, we have brilliant services economy and London still hasn’t been overtaken by Paris or Frankfurt in FS. Think we’re too risk averse however.

Quite hilarious when you remember how absurdly big their squad is

I’ll never not laugh at the way Fergus bowls in the room at the end there. So simple and chaotic

Home

I don’t think it’s adversarial to ask difficult questions about the people who own the club. That’s the job of a journalist. Thing is, people like George will agree with that but he’s too compromised now to do it.

It’s not an anti Newcastle conspiracy. www.nufcfansagainstsportswashing.org.uk

Sorry, *local* press.

Saudi crown prince asked Boris Johnson to intervene in Newcastle United bid Mohammed bin Salman warned of damage to relations with UK if Premier League refusal not ‘corrected’

www.theguardian.com/world/2021/a...

When kashoggi was murdered MBS and the Saudi state were pariahs on international stage. MBS personally pressured Boris Johnson to get premier league to push through the sale. Complying meant more Saudi investment and trade with UK. Come on, take the blinkers off here. It’s all about public opinion

FIFA awarding the 2034 World Cup to Saudi I take it is not on your radar? It’s targeted at diverting attention from their wrongdoing and clearly it works. Newcastle aren’t the first club to be used for this but they’re the biggest example. Qatar buying PSG and getting the 2022 World Cup another one.

You’re kidding, right?

The process of states with poor human rights records pouring money into sports teams and events in order to improve their reputation and image with countries who previously sanctioned or criticised them for the human rights abuses? It has its own Wikipedia page ffs 😂
