Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Liverpool hasn't finished lower than 7th since what, 1962? Arsenal has never been relegated. What are the ups and downs to which you refer? 200
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 06/10/2026That's what I thought when I saw this logo, that it was about the Euros and setting things up for a stadium sponsor. Interesting that you've heard the new stadium may be dead / postponed. 110
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 06/10/2026What have you heard about them being forced to develop SJP anyway, given the access routes and concourses etc. The bits I've heard indicated even those upgrades could be 100m. 100
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 06/10/2026The contrived justifications can be so weird. Met a cockney recently who has followed Man U since the 1970s because "I loved George Best". He was born in 1974, the same year he left that club. 100
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 06/10/2026have you ever thought of looking at the other clubs and maybe putting it into context? someone in their mid-40s has seen Liverpool win over 40 cups. That’s the original hegemony; similarly arsenal has never been relegated since moving from South London. The current rules ensure this never changes. 100

Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I don't get the sense the lad wants it that much, but hopefully I'm totally wrong. I loved watching the bits and pieces of him in Germany I saw, so was very excited when Newcastle got him. I don't his issue is a lack of talent, put it that way. 120
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Has the feel of a lad who retires at 26 and releases an album then art installation in his late 20s. 121
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Yeah DAZN is utter dogshit. Their awful ads make me actively dislike watching the feed, it would be better just getting a dodgy US stream. 000
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 01/10/2026That Minecraft castle thing will look extremely silly blown up and even on a shirt crest. I wonder what they will use it for. 000
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 30/09/2026I'm sure you're right. The American hedge funds ideally want perennial guaranteed money and minimal risk. The trend will always be towards reducing competition and the clubs that tried to destroy the PL with the Euro league will see this as an opportunity. 010
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Man city cheated on an industrial scale, or so it appears. But to me, this is about the corruption of the league over the past 20 years. It's been pure greed and hegemony, with Leicester an incredible and ephemeral blip. 000
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 29/09/2026All in favour of man city being punished. But we shouldn't delude ourselves, this will end up meaning it's 5 clubs that can spend and compete. It won't help any club trying and it will just empower the ones who cheated slightly less and in different eras. The drawbridge is up #nufc 5131
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 27/09/2026obviously a very good player, but after following him a bit from youth days, it's a shame he's become a DM in my opinion. He has all the skills of course, I always thought he would be an all action number 8, proper box to box. 110
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Couldn't care less about England, but wasting Lewis Hall's weekend like that. The bald fraud. 071
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 25/09/2026I know this might sound daft, but I really hope this is the PL bubble bursting. It's a bloated league, panders to foreign fans constantly, and it needs taking down several pegs. #nufc 091
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 23/09/2026if Wirtz were 123 we might have an initial discussion. Absolute drivel from a site that entirely panders to yank plastics. 020
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Yes of course you're right, my point was probably badly made. Multi-million pound businesses can't be run so amateurishly. The effects of MMR as an adult remain fairly mild, he has 2 lads so has a personal duty IMO, but the club has more of a responsibility. Mackem home loss was directly linked. 010

Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Monovalent Measles vaccination has been a mandated requirement in Brasil since 1977. 100
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Some (otherwise seemingly nice) lads in front of us in the Leazes have performatively booed the 'taking the knee' for years. It's pretty depressing stuff, and clapping the players extra to compensate has achieved nothing. 100
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Totally agree with all that. A lot of superstition and then algorithmic tripe on top of it, and elite performers. I wouldn't blame a player for being weird about vaccines, but I hope the club medics take this stuff seriously, about educating players. 020
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Bruno and the mumps fiasco last season, ASM was really weird about vaccines. Players are delicate little flowers who love their cherry juice and socks with holes in, but often hate medicine. #nufc 490
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Presumably because he can see the field better. He will still end up a midfielder but I think he's shrinking from having the responsibility pushed on him. He needs Nico to become the dominant player alongside. 030
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Thought it was one of Barnes' better games to be honest. If he doesn't score he often does nowt. He set up a goal, he had the beating of his man. Second half was desperately poor but that applied to most of them. 110
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Game entirely changed with this sub. Steur is Bruno for this side, and Wissa lacks both finishing ability and leadership. 031
Reposted by ChrisJeff Livingstone @defjeff.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Don’t know how United do on Saturday but Dowell, Alabi, Mills and Thompson make the England under 18 squad this week. Four players gets The Mags toe to toe with Man City and is the highest number of NUFC players that have ever represented the club at this level for their country. 1466
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 19/09/2026Pretty inevitable Isak would have some daft statement after his pathetic performance at SJP. 010
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 18/09/2026Thiago against Botman seems doomed. But he has proven me wrong before, each time I think he's finished. 020
Chris @kicka11.bsky.social · 18/09/2026fully agree with all of this. I don't like wissa as a striker to be honest, but we have no one else. 010
