Luckily for Swinney, the half-wits who vote for him won’t think this is a big deal. #snpout Revealed: SNP-backed Chinese renewables boss named in bribery scandal thetimes.com/article/5fb150c…

Newcastle are walking into a completely different #Spurs. Savinho has arrived. Marmoush has arrived. Fernandes pulling the strings. Tonali is hunting. Kudus is back. And now we get to see what De Zerbi-ball looks like when the stakes are real. Pray for Newcastle. #THFC #COYS

A couple of fans who haven’t bothered to Google what “asset stripping” means. #nufc
I must agree, at present this does very much seem like asset stripping. Some might even argue that every signing we've made is a DOWNGRADE on the 3 players we've sold so far. Other teams are reinforcing. We are just replacing with talented potential or lesser players #NUFC

It’s ridiculous that #AFC lead the enforcement of limitations on spending that #avfc and #nufc are subject to yet simultaneously use this artificially enhanced ability to pay higher wages to unsettle players & manipulate lower transfer fees. It needs challenged.
Replying to @JoelBlandSport
In the words of king kev I WOULD LOVE IT if newcastle really do stand their ground regardless of player power push

They’ve turned the World Cup Final into WWF - this is shit! What a joke. #worldcup

Awesome - another tax that harms people who are getting off their arses and going to their work. Meanwhile, fat gits who only ever dive in their car to pick up a pizza or a vape 800 metres from their front door won’t be touched.

Boasting about being part of an imaginary “big six”, when not a single commentator on earth would consider you as anything other than the sixth placed, ugly sister of the sky manufactured rabble. 17th & 17th. #nufc
I almost feel bad for Newcastle fans. Spent all month screaming ‘£100m raw cash or no deal’ only to watch Tonali explicitly push his agents to finalise terms with De Zerbi’s Spurs. Imagine having all that oil wealth just to be used as a stepping stone for the real big six. Enjoy your PSR tightrope while we drop bombs. 🤫💸 #NUFC #THFC

AG underperformed last season & we made £55m profit on book value, saved £8m pa amortisation & £6m pa wages. We’re willing to sell ST for £100m. (£75m profit, £12m amortisation & £6m wages). Both great business! We just need to learn how to sign players & ignore Romano. #nufc

Wissa’s costing £7m pa on wages and a further £11m on amortisation of his fee. £18m pa. It’s extraordinary. It basically negates everything we earn from post-Ashley front of kit sponsorship uplift. Equivalent to approximately 20,000 season tickets. On Wissa! . #nufc
These are estimated figures the highest salaries NUFC players are on. Saving quite a chunk seeing Gordon go (with a decent fee). Trippier, Krafth and Targett free agents, there's £215k a week saved. Fabian Schar has been offered reduced terms for one extra year, we await the news on that. Ramsdale on loan, his salary is huge. Ruddy and Gillespie are free agents too, however they're on low wages.

If we don’t sign a striker who can score 15 goals, we’ll be no better off than this season. #nufc
According to The Chronicle - A recruitment meeting has been held, headed by Ross Wilson and a shortlist has been drawn up, we are looking for.... Young Goalkeeper to complete for No.1 jersey. Right back who can play left back. Holding Midfielder. Winger to replace Gordon. With no European finances, we will be taking up a sell-to-buy model. #NUFC If this is true, is 4 players enough?

A nice moment of respect between Martin O'Neill and Neil Lennon at the end of the game👏 #BBCFootball

Vote for this guy and we’ll get what we voted for: a man who would literally do anything for independence. This guy grew up in a country where the IRA set off bombs and murdered innocent children. Now he wants to “work with Sinn Fein” #snpout

This guy’s gaslighting an entire country. If you believe this shit, you’re either too stupid to read the report, or you just don’t care. #snpout
Under the SNP's leadership Scotland has a strong economic track record. We've been assigned our first credit ratings and they match the UK & are better than major global economies like Japan. We should be proud of the strength of Scotland's economy. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

“Impactful”? In what possible way? Jumped up undergraduate social science student. #snpout
Incredibly powerful start to my second day in Zambia with a discussion on Gender Based Violence against women and equalities issues with groups supported by @scotgov Women and Girls Fund. An impactful example of Scotland’s international work in action.

What a clown show we have governing us! #snpout
Really @MairiMcAllan? Where’s this “very detailed, quite dispassionate, economic prospectus for independence.” you claim to have published, because this effort certainly wasn’t one of those.
