Barely an hour ago, Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif warned us all:

“If this madness doesn’t end, Gaza will be reduced to ruins, its people’s voices silenced, their faces erased — and history will remember you as silent witnesses to a genocide you chose not to stop.”

Israel just killed him.

Lot of briefings/counter briefings on NUFC/Isak right now, and this will no doubt continue for another (nauseating) fortnight. With the centre back arriving in time to catch the carvery scraps at Kenton Bar Toby, United are just a forward away from wrestling the narrative back this summer, though.

Stop thinking about Isak, read about Isaac. Who always wanted to play for - or represent - #NUFC.

RIP Biddy Baxter. An extraordinary woman by anybody’s standards.

probably the last chance this summer to wear the best swim shorts ever, before the pool closes.

One of the greatest political tweets of all time was someone saying of Alex Salmond “cunt looks like he’s never heard Marquee Moon”

Some of us were years ahead, Stu!

Mind, yer lad Thiaw has got some serious air miles in this weekend. Milan-Dublin-London-Milan-Woolsington. I hope he’s collecting his points.

Wow!

Yay! What a great tick!

What about this!!!

Alexander Isak is the tainted club legend whose future looms large over Newcastle’s season How ready are Eddie Howe's side for the campaign ahead? They have endured a difficult pre-season but so much depends on what happens next

How ready are #NUFC? Well, there’s a question …

Eddie Howe: “I know the challenges we face. This is a new territory for us but I also believe that from tough moments you can build something even more special if you come out the other side. That’s a big if.”

Ah, very good.

Thinking about another Butlin’s weekender, lads. Nothing can go wrong.

Nice!!!

To be fair, everyone, everywhere is known by the time they’re six. Outliers that kick on rapidly with regular football are the ones to watch.

Newcastle United, offering strikers a contract.

Different one.

There’s a midfielder a few are looking at further down the league. Might need a move elsewhere (Germany) first but several clubs watching intently. Don’t want to jinx and/or look stupid. Although, I’ve got form with the latter….

Had a few, lads. Still early.

A quality goal from Dundee there. He never gave up, never let us down, gave the Rangers defence the runaround and deserted them.
