[Football] Dan Burn and Newcastle Media Wankfest

[pigmanovich]

If we won the FA Cup the newspapers would be full of our story. You can also add March and Dunk spending their entire professional careers with us - especially if one of them scored - to your list of points.

They would be but it doesn’t change that the football press is more starry eyed about Newcastle. My point was that there is MORE romanticism around the Geordies not that there is none around us.

Let’s hope we get to find out!

I turned the radio commentary on to see what the score was just as Burn scored.

At that point Sam Matterofact started masturbating. Dan Burn used to stack shelves in Asda apparently and on it went..... Switched the radio off again until the end.

Think he also went crazy because he had a bet on Dan Burn to score at over 60/1!

I was really pleased Newcastle won and was all for a bit of frenzy but the 24/7 lovefest the whole week on TalkSport was waaaaay too much.

Ally McCoist and his co-host (i forget who it was now) were really trying to force it Monday morning, going on about Newcastle fans will be having hangovers all week etc overdoing to the drink thing.

And so it continues. BBC Breakfast reporting live from Newcastle this morning on preparations for the bus parade. Really?

Oh good grief. Now wheeled Shearer out as well.

If we won the Fa Cup and Dunk scored the opening goal the media would be all over it.

Mmm. Maybe. If we won the FA Cup, I think the narrative the media wants is Danny Welbeck to score the goal, tbh. Which is less a Brighton story and more a personal, ‘one of football’s most deserving servants’ story.

Depends. If it was City or Villa, the story would be as much about them as about us...

I imagine that in our particular case, most of the writing would be about 1. Tony Bloom and 2. Fabian Hurzeler.

The somewhat selfmade British billionaire fending off oil states, hedgefunds and whatnot is the obvious storyline... along with the 14-year-old coach brought in from nowhere.

Well they aren’t busy in the Sixth Round so good time to squeeze in a parade?!

They've sold their soul to Saudi Arabia and managed to win the fourth worst trophy out of the four available. This will soon be forgotten and upstaged by the winners of the FA Cup IF it isn't City.

So the best one..?

I got really pissed off and turned the telly off before I cost myself a load of money by putting my foot through it.

Nope, the trophy these 'big' clubs want to axe every year to ease fixture congestion.

Isn't the 4th worst trophy out of 4 actually be the best trophy

You sound surprised.

Yes, I meant the 4th best.

Blood money can buy you anything.
It's not only a sad day for sport, but a sad day for humanity when this is celebrated.
