Glad he’s getting called out and ratioed for it I think most people say the phrase with a good intention. It's lovable. Much less hostile than "yeah course" that we threw at Gerrard just because he was from Liverpool. I am a foreigner in this country, and my family all have funny accents. I've dealt with xenophobia and laughing at things I say, but this is not it in my opinion. It's a warm catchphrase, at least in my own intentions and views. But if you are not comfortable with it I get it. I just wouldn't be that harsh on it. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot about Poland to be honest so yeah you're right on Cash and Bednarek. I thought Digne was injured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think people like Lineker should Sue their platforms to educate, especially in the current climate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cos it would be incredible if he manages to beat Man United. don't know where to find that info Technically his first game is Man Utd but he will be heavily involved in the Newcastle preparations and will probably be at the ground giving instructions from the stands.

If anyone kicks off, he only has to say 'how many trophies have you won', followed by 'if you do this you can add one'. Anyone dissenting after that can bugger off and be replaced by someone with the right attitude. Honestly I bet the players will be buzzing after the appointment. No professional footballer likes losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fun Factory Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Comparing Poch and Emery time at PSG it looks like Unai did a better job as well. However that club is basically unmanageable and Neil Lennon could probably deliver a league 1 title for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt he'd be allowed to due to work permit. It would have to be secret squirrel. HMRC are buggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it really is work permit formalities that are stopping him starting then I imagine he won't be doing any of that as it could be a breach of work permit regulations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was an affectionate meme Me too to be honest, I thought it was just a jokey meme, but to conflate someone’s ability to speak a foreign language with anything like ability, intellect, or… anything! Is just nonsense. We aren’t hiring him as an interpreter so I couldn’t careless if he was entirely mute as long as he wins us football games.
