What I meant was do you not want women to share your interest in Football?

Because tbf to women, it's hard to not use Football lingo without sounding "blokey."

But that's just my view.

I used to engage in playful football based banter with loads of female colleagues but they just talked normally they didn’t do what these female pundits do

Newcastle without two out of three midfield assassins … I hope Leeds absolutely batter them … mentally and physically….give them a taste of their own medicine

Of course it was … Liverpool obviously had to put up a fight but it’s nonsense to say they were equally as bad

There were three bad Newcastle challenges in the opening minutes .. then Newcastle left their foot or elbow in on practically every challenge

Joelinton was well Joelinton - he’s one of those players who foul throughout the game but rarely gets booked .. Kompany and Fernandinho used to be the same


The only Newcastle players who didn’t play filthy last night was the keeper , Livermento and the two wingers - the other eight were disgraceful imho


Guimares committed an endless number of fouls before getting booked then showed dissent after receiving a yellow card - the ref ignored it … he then went on to commit a further bad challenge and the commentator commented that he should be careful but he then went on to commit another 7 or 8 bad fouls … all waved on by pathetically weak ref

He gave so much to Newcastle that on three occasions VVD was seen on camera telling the ref to be “ fair to both sides “


Rant over

the first 20 mins of the game were pure liverpool thuggery. I have no issue with people saying newcastle are a dirty side, because they are, but implying liverpool are saints is just wrong

Who said they were … though it was just self defence or they would have been bullied into submission as the ref was far too lenient

He let far too many Newcastle fouls go completely unpunished ( not even a warning)

After about 3 minutes there’d been a few bad challenges then Joelinton kicked Gakpo in the side of his head ( Gakpo hadn’t even ducked down! ) - no yellow no warning !

Soon after VVD was seen to be pleading with the ref to be fair to BOTH sides as he had booked two Liverpool players for net to nothing compared to what the Newcastle guys were getting up to .


Most refs these days are either inept or home biased or both

I’d put Newcastle UFC as the dirtiest team by some distance

Only their keeper plus Livermento plus the two wingers aren’t a danger to opposition players .

I can’t think of any other team who come close to having 7 filthy outfielder players as starters

Its the most recent one I could find


One based over the last 6 months would probably look like this - swap in Botman for Livermento obviously .

What is it that they're saying that is annoying you?

I'm not asking it to be confrontational, I'm just genuinely curious.

You say all that yet you support them when they play Chelsea, who are not a dirty team (Caicedo aside).

Noooo !

As I recall.. I only shouted for them against your team because we had fallen out for a few days … possibly because you had defended Newcastle when I was criticising them ..


Then as luck would have it they played Newcastle a few days later and I may ( childishly so If I did ) have said I hope they play as rough against Chelsea

We are cool now .. hopefully
