Spare some love today for Collingwood. The other Admiral at Trafalgar.
Proud northerner. Hater of flogging. Legit brilliant commander and Nelson's trusted right hand. First into battle on Royal Sovereign. Took charge after Nelson was sniped and saved the British Fleet.
Here's HIS Trafalgar... /1 🧵

I get that Eddie Howe came from a relegated Bournemouth after steering them through an astronomic rise , came to Newcastle. out performed any metrics imposed. 2 CL's in 3 yrs, a first domestic trophy in (nearly) living memory. As an #NUFC fan, his rep is stellar!
WTF is he thinking right now?

I met Tim Healy once, he was a complete dick. My sis met him twice, once he was a dick, the 2nd time he was emptying a jug of piss into a car park. Not sure why but I've always detested Denise Welch. When I saw her on TV I'd change to a different channel. Is this why I hate The 1975 so much? #glasto

Hey @georgemonbiot.bsky.social
I ask this question out of ignorance, I'd appreciate your POV.
With NATO nations agreeing to commit 5% of GDP to Defence spending under US pressure, is this due to lobbyists wanting to bolster US military industries? This 5% can be used for green energy investment?

Was Livramento involved in the spark that caused that kickoff at the end? I saw him facing up to someone at the final whistle...
Excellent result though!

Really good breakdown on João Pedro, opened my eyes to some stuff I didn't know about him and I've chsnged my opinion a bit - I knew I should've trusted Eddie
Fplinstinctive has a good thread on x about why he'll work well at #NUFC, hopefully he puts it on here as well 🙏

What a game that was! And not to make it all about us but imagine if #NUFC had to make 6 substitutions to last out a game!
Brilliant game though, always had a soft spot for Inter 💙🖤

I'm in my 50th year on this planet, born in Blyth, 6'5 and a bang average left footed centre back in my day.
I can't explain how much joy Dan Burn gives me but today was something special!
I'm a mess, 3 hours after the final whistle I'm still nervous. I just can't understand what happened #NUFC

It makes me proud to have a Geordie like Sam Fender representing us as a people.

Remember those days when you would drive 200 miles or so and your windscreen would be smattered with dead insects?

Fuck it, I hope Miggy plays some blinders for #NUFC By all accounts he's a nice guy, committed and trying his best for the team. It's not his fault he's in and around the first team.
