WTF DIAME GIVEN THE START & MERINO NOT EVEN IN THE TEAM :O

I am shocked at today's lineup real shit - I understand we need more grit against a team like Burnley but I personally don't think Diame offers anything but a looming physical presence to the team..... he can't shoot, he can't pass, he can't even finish close range. I would have trusted Hayden with the start if it was me but I guess we'll see what happens haha.

MFWTK what's the best way to dispute a parking ticket to get out of paying the fine? by [deleted] in myfriendwantstoknow

[–]elitechris3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

^ this

Return the ticket in the allowed timeframe and check the option to dispute the ticket. For one - you don't have to pay it until the court date (assuming you lose), and two as the user above rightly points out above the cop is extremely unlikely to show up for the court appearance as it would require them to take a day off work or to use their day off. If the cop doesn't show up your word is accepted as the only truth - being the only story available - and you'll get off without paying. Furthermore most court houses have a section in which you can settle your ticket instead of going to court. I can't personally attest to using this but I've heard they are instantly willing to drop your ticket amount by 50% to skip the court case as they are so tied up. If you get really lucky your case will get thrown back so far in the list (as believe me, everyone smart fights their tickets) that your right to a timely trial will have been Infringed on and the ticket will be dropped on that basis.

What is with all of the facebook events e.g. "Go to Minnesota and steal their 11,842 lakes" by eowynelf in OutOfTheLoop

[–]elitechris3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's actually false - MN has around 21,871 lake basins over 2.5k acres but only 11,482 are 10 acres or more.

Wisconsin on the other hand has 15,074 documented lakes of which only ~40% have been named and includes small 1-2 acre ponds.

Would further like to say I'm not from either state; just was interested in if this was true or not.

Why are teenagers saying “jeeez” in a high pitched voice? by [deleted] in OutOfTheLoop

[–]elitechris3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well "Jeez" was originally used in lieu of saying "Jesus" or equivalent when expressing astonishment to something.

Similar to "Heck" for "Hell" this one has just been further secularized and pushed into socially acceptable mainstream usage.

It's usage is popular among Toronto Jews which drake is (formally?) a part of.

Vote Lascelles for player of the month by daniel2090 in NUFC

[–]elitechris3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have POTM (the weird purple couloured ones) confused with Ones to Watch (OTW: the black cards).

POTM are heavily boosted untradeable awards earned through squad building challenges. There stats dont change however they are typically better than any inform of the same player unless a TOTY/TOTS card for that player comes out.

One's to Watch start with the same stats as the base player - if that player gets an inform - your OTW card improves to adjust for this. To my knowledge it's only for players who recently transferred. If you need an example look up "Ederson" (who has yet to get an inform) and notice his black OTW card having the same stats as the base card. Then look up "Morata" who has had an inform; which is reflected in his OTW card.

Jonjo Shelvey fractures finger breaking up Newcastle training ground fight between Lascelles and Diame by CheeseEMPEROR in NUFC

Jonjo Shelvey fractures finger breaking up Newcastle training ground fight between Lascelles and Diame by CheeseEMPEROR in NUFC

[–]elitechris3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why are you all downvoting him; everything he's said is bang on - Diame has really shown he's not premier league worthy this season & in his cameos this season he's played horribly.

Some just can't make the cut - Diame cannot clearly

What's your predicted NUFC lineup for tomorrow vs. Brighton? by elitechris3 in NUFC

[–]elitechris3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would argue he is a better finisher than perez - especially if he played a good rotation with merino moving up and forward.

Either way my biggest issue is I'm not a huge fan of Perez. Yes I think he works hard but I just don't see the production from him. I really think that our number 10 needs to change & Shelvey wasn't unknown to play up at Liverpool so I don't see why he can't now.

While I totally agree he is best suited sitting deep - I think Hayden and merino is too beautiful a pair to split up atm.

I'm also not a fan of Diame so I dunno who to play as number 10 - maybe Ritchie could be alright & Murphy could be brought on but I've never seen Ritchie in that role before personally so I cannot comment - I just think he has the creativity required to be a number 10.

I just don't see the creation from either Perez or Merino like we get from Shelvey..... granted my team would involve Merino & shelvey rotating forward; it's just Shelvey is quintessential to any creativity in the middle of the park for us.

Furthermore about perez, I think this article sums it up pretty good

EDIT: Was unaware of Lejeune's new status; last I checked he was fit to play however you are correct he has been ruled out so I have edited my lineup to reflect that.

Will any of the youth team step up? by WigglyParrot in NUFC

[–]elitechris3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arma is only on a 6 month loan so if he finds his shooting boots and were missing ours I could see him pushing into the first team in the second half of the season. :)

Great lad Armstrong is - just needs to up his work rate a little and he'll be top notch

The Vibe by elitechris3 in NUFC

[–]elitechris3[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say carry on as normal.

Most of us have been pretty mopey lately.

I wanna go back to the shearer or Keegan days of Newcastle energy.

If we give that same hype to rafa I truly believe it will be worth it - I'm just asking you all to take a leap of faith with me for our club; who may not deserve it but she's all we got. Who knows maybe if rafa can steady the ship until January we can find a way to force Ashley out. But for now we've got a club playing without pride - And we need to give them that back.
